Chapter 302: The Two Families Meet

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The two of them busied themselves in the cloakroom and chose to be more casual, but others could tell at a glance that they were a couple.

After tidying themselves up, the two of them had a simple breakfast. After resting for a while, they drove out.

The place where the two families met this time was a Chinese restaurant that Chu An chose, which Gu Xiao liked more and was more private.

When the two of them arrived at the private room, they realized that the Chu family had already arrived early.

When Chu Zi saw Chu An and Gu Xiao’s clothes, his mocking gaze landed on Chu An.

Chu An pretended not to see the other party’s gaze. After sitting down with Gu Xiao, he looked at Mr Chu and Mrs Chu. “Dad, Mom, why are you here so early?”

Mrs Chu smiled kindly at Gu Xiao before answering Chu An’s question. “I didn’t have anything to do at home, so I came over early.”

At this moment, Chu An’s sister-in-law approached Gu Xiao and softly exposed the lie in Mrs Chu’s words to Gu Xiao. “Dad and Mom were so agitated that they couldn’t sleep. They woke up a little early, so they simply brought us over earlier.”

According to Mr Chu and Mrs Chu’s words, only by arriving earlier could they show how much they valued Gu Xiao.

Hearing Chu An’s sister-in-law’s words, Gu Xiao’s heart warmed, and a trace of a smile flashed across her eyes.

Seeing that Gu Xiao was chatting happily with his sister-in-law, Chu An didn’t disturb her. He dealt with Mr Chu, Mrs Chu, and Chu Zi, who teased him from time to time.

Not long after they sat down, Gu Xiao received a message from Ji Chen saying that he had arrived at the restaurant.

Chu An, who had been paying attention to Gu Xiao’s movements, saw the way Gu Xiao looked at the message on her phone and immediately understood that Ji Chen must have arrived.

Hence, he reached out and stopped Gu Xiao, who was about to get up. “I’ll go pick Brother Chen up.”

Gu Xiao glanced at Chu An and thought for a second. She smiled at Chu An and agreed to his suggestion.

After a while, the door of the private room was pushed open from the outside, and Chu An walked in with Ji Chen.

Seeing Mr Chu’s family who had already arrived, Ji Chen was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and apologized to the Chu family.

“Sorry, I’m late.”

Mr Chu looked at Ji Chen’s calm and polite look and nodded in satisfaction. Then, he smiled brightly at Ji Chen.

“It’s not late, it’s not late. We came early.”

“That’s right. Your Uncle Chu is right. We came early. Moreover, you’re a young man. It’s normal for you not to know these things,” Mrs Chu chimed in.

They all knew that Ji Chen did not even have a partner now, let alone getting married. Plus, with the Ji family’s situation, it was normal for Ji Chen not to know these etiquette.

Moreover, they were indeed early. Ji Chen was not late and even arrived earlier than the agreed time.

Seeing that the Chu family did not seem to be angry about him being late, Ji Chen chose to sit beside Gu Xiao. As for Chu An’s sister-in-law, when Chu An went out to pick Ji Chen up, she got up from the chair next to Gu Xiao and sat back down beside Chu Zi.

The two families chatted briefly. In the end, Mrs Chu took the initiative to say, “Xiao Chen, you should know about Xiaoxiao and our Xiao An. Xiaoxiao and Xiao An have already decided on each other and want to confirm their relationship completely. However, the two of them don’t like a big affair, so they just want the two families to have a meal, get to know each other and consider that as confirming their engagement. What do you think?”

Hearing this, Ji Chen did not speak for a while, but looked at Gu Xiao.

Gu Xiao looked up. There was no trace of reluctance in her eyes, only anticipation.

He knew that Gu Xiao had always valued Chu An. In fact, even whether or not he agreed to this matter, Gu Xiao had already decided and would not change.

How could her biological brother, who had appeared halfway through her life, compare to Chu An, who had been by her side since they met?

Moreover… he also knew that Chu An treated Gu Xiao extremely well.

As Gu Xiao’s only relative now, it seemed like it was his duty to give Gu Xiao a blessing from her family.

Hence, he turned around, looked at Mr Chu and Mrs Chu, and nodded slightly.

“If Xiaoxiao is happy, I won’t object. It’s not bad to confirm this matter either..”
