Chapter 1847: Chapter 1845: Meddling in Other People’s Business

But no matter what, Qin Yize believed that his good brother would find this delightful.

Unexpectedly, Xino also got interested and started making moves to pursue Sima Xiaowen.

Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t think Xino was deeply in love with Sister Xiaowen, but he definitely had a liking for her. However, someone like Xino, born abroad into a prominent family, with notable figures on either side of his grandparents, could be said to have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

Many things for him were easily obtainable.

Women were naturally no exception. Take Alina, for example, although she was an illegitimate child, she had assets abroad.

And she herself was quite formidable, being the top gold shooter at Xino’s club.

Plus, she was beautiful, which was why Xino spent a little longer with her.

But precisely because of this, Gu Qiaoqiao preferred Sima Xiaowen to rekindle an old flame rather than see her with Xino.

Of course, this was just Gu Qiaoqiao’s personal wish. No matter how close she was with Xiaowen, she couldn’t influence Sima Xiaowen’s choices.

In a certain sense, Sima Xiaowen was much more mature than her, well-experienced, and her worldly insights hardly compared to Xiaowen’s.

Nonetheless, she shared her thoughts with Sima Xiaowen, mainly hoping Sister Xiaowen wouldn’t do anything silly just to break free from Chu Chengfeng.

Qin Yize said she was worrying unnecessarily.

Gu Qiaoqiao felt the same.

Still, she was amused to see Xino causing a bit of trouble for Chu Chengfeng.

And during that time, Imperial Capital enjoyed the season of blooms and the chirping of birds.

It was in this season that Li Gufen and Li He got married.

Seeing pairs around her finding their rightful companionship, Gu Qiaoqiao really wanted to see Xiaowen find a love that would last forever.

Yet, over these two months, there hadn’t been any progress from Chu Chengfeng, though his business was thriving and booming.

Following that, Xino left for some affairs, maintaining a friendship with Xiaowen.

Being rid of this eyesore, Chu Chengfeng was the happiest.

However, Father Chu was unaware of the complex intrigues and resentments among them, feeling he had no face left to meet the Old Patriarch.

So he resolutely decided not to interfere.

Let things unfold as they may, for there were many matters he couldn’t decide for Chu Chengfeng.

Father Chu also felt that many inexplicable things were happening with his elder son, wisely choosing to remain silent and not probe, giving them space for a more suitable interaction.

With Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei’s first birthday approaching, Qin Yize and Gu Qiaoqiao planned to visit Northern Border City.

Naturally, they would bring the children along.

Considerably a chance to relax.

On returning, Qin Yize would be much busier as his new product development reached its critical phase.

Sima Xiaowen had never been to Northern Border City; hearing Gu Qiaoqiao’s plan, she was intrigued and began arranging her work after returning, preparing to go on a trip with Qin Yize’s family to Northern Border City in two weeks.

Knowing this, Chu Chengfeng grew anxious.

After pondering, he arranged his work too and decided to join the trip to Northern Border City.

In fact, he hadn’t been there either.

To prevent Sima Xiaowen from changing her mind last minute, he kept his plans under wraps from Qin Yize and Gu Qiaoqiao.

Avoiding any disappointment.

Thus, on the day of departure, Gu Qiaoqiao was shocked to find out the originally planned family outing had turned into a large gathering.

Besides Sima Xiaowen and Chu Chengfeng, Xiao Bai and White Wolf were also waiting outside.

Xiao Bai and White Wolf had it easy; they could run off wherever at full speed without needing any preparations. But looking at Chu Chengfeng’s demeanor, it was evident he planned this ahead of time. Gu Qiaoqiao shot a glare at Qin Yize beside her.

Qin Yize felt wronged too, whispering, "This guy didn’t tell me either."

Sima Xiaowen languidly leaned against the car.

Turning back at this moment would be pointless.

Moreover, she didn’t really want to never speak to Chu Chengfeng again.

With a ready chauffeur, why not use him? So, Chu Chengfeng joyfully became Sima Xiaowen’s driver.

It was already June by then.

In the North, the ice and snow had long melted, and everything was lush and green.

During the journey, it was quite lively.

Especially the two kids; it was their first long journey, their big bright eyes full of curiosity and excitement.

They knew how to walk.

Being well-developed, they walked steadily, speaking simultaneously, not fluently but surprisingly clear.

The two children, the boy was more serene, while Xiao Bei was a bit naughty.

Since it wasn’t a work trip, the schedule was flexible, stopping and going leisurely. After a week, they arrived at Border City Base.

Now, Doctor Chen was the person in charge here.

He was already aware of Qin Yize’s visit and had everything arranged.

Old friends met, naturally exchanging pleasantries, and the house where Gu Qiaoqiao once lived was now occupied by unfamiliar faces, newcomers this year.

This place held too many memories for Gu Qiaoqiao, and revisiting sparked many sentiments.

They stayed here for over a week, and Gu Qiaoqiao found the amber she wanted on the riverside.

It was purely natural.

It had been washed ashore during the spring flood untapped, maybe waiting for Gu Qiaoqiao.

Chu Chengfeng and Sima Xiaowen seemed to return to their initial state, though Gu Qiaoqiao noticed Sister Xiaowen had softened significantly.

She understood as all misunderstandings cleared and truths surfaced, people’s feelings were bound to change. Sister Xiaowen wasn’t heartless, having feelings for Chu Chengfeng, and now with obstacles gone and misunderstandings cleared, their reconciliation was inevitable. They just needed an opportunity.

Returning to Imperial Capital, they resumed their busy lives.

On one day, Mu Xinxin invited Gu Qiaoqiao out for a chat.

Actually, Gu Qiaoqiao was fairly busy those days, as Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei were nearing their first birthdays. Both the Old Patriarch and the Old Master were insistent on throwing a birthday banquet for the two children.

It wouldn’t be grand, yet there were many to invite, mainly intimate friends and relatives.

Fortunately, there were plenty of helpers, making it easier for Gu Qiaoqiao, who mainly focused on minor details, while Qin Yize handled everything else.

At the teahouse, seeing Mu Xinxin’s expression, Gu Qiaoqiao guessed that the issue with the Lu Family might have been resolved, but then again, several months had passed.
