Chapter 308: Silence
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the following days, Gu Xiao and Chu An lived their lives as usual. The only change might be that they became more and more intimate with the Chu family and Ji Chen.
The Ji Group gradually quietened down and was much more low-key than before.
There were endless new news online. Without new revelations, the netizens’ attention to the Ji Group had decreased a lot. This was the result that the Ji Group wanted.
However, in the dark, Chu An still sent people to secretly monitor the Ji Group.
If the Ji Group made a move, he would be the first to know. Even if they could not touch the Ji Group now, they had to be wary that the Ji Group might attack them.
However, even when Gu Xiao and Chu An were about to report to A University, the Ji Group didn’t do anything, causing Chu An to be disappointed for a moment.
Two days before reporting, Mrs Chu and Mr Chu sent a message asking if they needed to send the two of them to A University.
After Chu An received the news, he was just about to discuss this matter with Gu Xiao when he saw Chu Zi’s message follow closely with a hint of jealousy in his tone.
“When I went to university back then, our parents didn’t suggest sending me to school. They only let me report alone. You’re lucky to have benefited from your connection with Xiaoxiao.”
When Chu An saw Chu Zi’s message, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and a trace of smugness flashed across his eyes.
“It can’t be helped. Who asked you not to find Sister-in-law at that time? Work hard, Brother.”
After sending a message to Chu Zi, Chu An put away his phone and ignored Chu Zi’s reaction.
He was about to return to his room to look for Gu Xiao when he saw Gu Xiao walk out with her phone. When she saw him, her eyes lit up slightly.
“Brother said that he hopes to send us to school. What do you think?”
Perhaps it was because of the engagement between Gu Xiao and Chu An that triggered Ji Chen. From that day onwards, Ji Chen paid more attention to Gu Xiao.
Gu Xiao was a little helpless about this, but when she thought of what Ji Chen said after getting drunk, she could not bear to reject him.
When Chu An heard this, he walked towards Gu Xiao and said to her, “What a coincidence. Father and Mother also sent me the same message just now.” Hearing this, the helplessness in Gu Xiao’s eyes intensified.
“I even suspect that Brother has discussed it previously with Uncle Chu and Aunt Chu,” Gu Xiao said with a smile.
After all, the timing of these three people’s messages was really too coincidental. They were all sent on the same day.
Chu An nodded in agreement with Gu Xiao’s guess.
“Actually, I don’t think there’s a need to go through so much trouble.” Chu An voiced his thoughts.
After all, A University was quite far from their villas, but they were all in the same city, and it would only take two to three hours. Moreover, they were already so old, and it seemed a little unreasonable to let their families send them to school.
Gu Xiao was silent for a while. When she met Chu An’s gaze, she nodded slightly.
“Indeed, it’s not impossible for us to go alone.” Gu Xiao paused and thought for a while before continuing, “Then I’ll leave this matter to you to deal with?”
“Shall I talk to Brother Chen?”
Gu Xiao thought of how Ji Chen didn’t like Chu An… If Chu An really rejected this matter, although Ji Chen didn’t say it out loud, in his heart, he would probably…
She raised her hand and rubbed her temples.
“I’ll talk to Brother. You’ll handle Uncle Chu and Aunt Chu.”
The moment Gu Xiao thought of how Mr Chu and Mrs Chu and Ji Chen would send them to A University together and how others would react when they saw them, she felt even more troubled.
As the head of the Chu Corporation, Mr Chu and Mrs Chu still had some exposure online. As for Ji Chen, because of Ji Gao’s various actions, some news spread online, and there were even photos.
She had also seen Ji Chen’s fan club online…
Gu Xiao recalled the scene when she saw this thing and felt an indescribably ambiguous feeling in her heart, especially about those people who called Ji Chen their husband and wanted to be her sister-in-law.
Although Gu Xiao could barely be considered a member of the entertainment industry, such a bold personality and way of addressing her was still a little unbearable.
Seeing that Gu Xiao really didn’t want anyone to send them to A University, Chu An agreed to the other party’s arrangement and immediately sent a message back to Mr Chu and Mrs Chu with the news of rejection..
