Chapter 1204: Do You Know What’s A Multiflora Rose?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Beigong Lie was just about to call Gu Qiqi his “nephew’s wife” when he saw Gu Qiqi’s face. All his words froze in his mouth.
Not only was his mouth stiff, but his hands, feet, and body were as well.
He froze for more than ten seconds before looking away from Gu Qiqi’s face in a daze.
Stiffly, he reached out and grabbed Beigong Mingtian.
He pulled him to a corner and asked in a low voice with his back facing Gu Qiqi, “Brat, where did you find a wife? What’s her name? Where does she live?!”!!
Beigong Mingtian thought that Gu Qiqi’s male outfit had frightened Beigong Lie.
Beigong Lie lived in seclusion. There were no newspapers or magazines in his bedchamber, let alone television phones or the Internet. He did not know about the big news between him and Young Master Ye at all. He only knew that he was in love when he heard the servants gossiping. Therefore, it was understandable that he was not mentally prepared.
Beigong Mingtian coughed. “Uncle, you’re knowledgeable and open-minded. You shouldn’t think that it’s a big deal for me to find a boyfriend, right?”
Beigong Lie slapped him on the shoulder. “Rascal, are you deliberately trying to flatter me and shut me up? You don’t want to tell me the truth? Hmph, this trick won’t work on me! Hurry! Tell me everything about this person!”
Beigong Mingtian’s lips twitched. Was his uncle objecting or concerned?
“His surname is Ye and he lives in the capital. As for the rest… Uncle, are you checking his household register? This is his first time visiting our country. Can you not scare him away?”
Beigong Lie muttered to himself, “His surname is Ye… Why is his surname Ye… No, his surname shouldn’t be Ye… He’s clearly from the capital…”
Beigong Mingtian didn’t understand what he was muttering about. He quickly turned around and gave Gu Qiqi a look.
As the two of them had already planned this beforehand, Gu Qiqi walked forward tacitly. “Uncle, hello. This is my greeting gift to you. Hope you like it.”
As he spoke, he handed over a flower shovel made of good suet white jade.
Before coming over, Gu Qiqi didn’t understand why Beigong Mingtian asked her to prepare a flower shovel. Now that she saw the courtyard full of precious herbs, she understood.
The gift was to his liking.
As expected, Beigong Lie’s eyes were calm for a moment.
However, after taking the medicinal herb shovel, he asked an unrelated question. “Young Master Ye, how old are you this year? Do you have any sisters at home?”
Gu Qiqi was stunned. She hadn’t prepared this question in advance.
She was a little confused.
However, she quickly adjusted herself. “I’m twenty years old. I’m the only son in the family.”
Well, she had to inflate herself!
Gu Xuexue, Gu Yuanyuan, and the others were not worthy of being her sisters!
As for Xiaobei, it was better not to say anything.
Beigong Lie’s eyes flashed with disappointment.
Apparently, that wasn’t the answer he wanted to hear.
He asked, “Young Master Ye, is your father’s surname Ye?”
Gu Qiqi was stunned. “Uh… yes.”
He continued to ask, “Then Young Master Ye, may I ask your mother’s surname?”
Gu Qiqi’s expression was indescribable. She already believed what Beigong Mingtian said. Her uncle was really a little strange. “Her surname is Qin.”
Beigong Lie’s disappointment grew.
However, he still asked indignantly, “Then, Young Master Ye, have you heard of a woman called Rose? She’s extremely beautiful, just like you…”
Gu Qiqi coughed non-stop.
“Uncle, I don’t know this woman you’re talking about.”
Beigong Lie asked, “Young Master Ye, think again. Think again if there are any women called Rose in your family, okay?”
That urgent expression was simply like a person who was possessed by a snake spirit.
Beigong Mingtian was extremely embarrassed.
How humiliating!
It wasn’t easy for Qiqi to come to his house. Look at what his elders were doing.
There was no need to talk about his parents’ lack of integrity. His uncle even pestered her to ask about some woman called Rose. It would scare Qiqi, alright?
