Chapter 601: Congenial Conversation

“Nice to meet you, Mrs. Gu.”Yun Xiangxiang smiled in response to Mrs. Gu’s compliment.

“Come in and have a seat. Don’t be shy. I’m the only child here. I like a lively atmosphere. Treat this place as your own home. Just be casual.”Mrs. Gu turned her body and extended her hand to let them in.

Song Mian took Yun Xiangxiang, who was holding his hand, and walked forward. He did not forget to greet Mrs. Gu. “Where are uncle Gu and Grandpa Gu?”

“Lao Qin is at the office. He just called and will be back in half an hour. Your Grandpa Gu is fishing in the backyard. He said that you’re here today and he wants to catch a big fish to entertain you,”Mrs. Gu suggested, “Why don’t you go and have a look? It’s still early and you can accompany him fishing. He’s always talking about you.”

Before they sat down, Song Mian looked at Yun Xiangxiang and asked for her opinion.

“Sure, I like to eat fish the most, but I’ve never fished before.”Yun Xiangxiang seemed to be very interested.

In fact, she had already noticed that Mrs. Gu had directly ignored the memorial. She did not scowl at it, nor did she look down on it or dislike it. She completely treated the memorial as air.

After all, memorial had helped her senior brother before, and he was a good friend of He Wei. She also admired memorial, so she did not want to stay here and feel awkward.

“Then let’s go and see if we can catch a fish.”Song Mian nodded and smiled at Mrs. Gu.

“Ah Shan.”Mrs. Gu indeed called out to him.

A young man walked over. He was probably a servant hired by the Gu family because they were all wearing the same uniform. “Mrs. Gu.”

“Take the guests to master,”Mrs. Gu instructed.

Ah Shan replied and respectfully led the way for Song Mian and the others. “Please follow me, guests.”

Yun Xiangxiang smiled politely at Mrs. Gu and followed Ah Shan to the back garden with Song Mian.

The Gu family was really big. It was different from the Chinese style of the song family. It was purely a modern European style. The garden was like a park. Not only were the flowers and trees carefully cultivated, but there were also resting chairs and garbage cans set up around it.

After walking for about ten minutes, they finally saw the fish pond. The two sides of the fish pond were as green as blankets, with willow catkins flying in the air.

There were two servants standing where the resting chairs were. A man wearing a straw hat and a t-shirt was sitting on the winding stone steps that went down into the fish pond.

They did not immediately go up to disturb him. Instead, they followed gu zai Zi and led them to a place with servants to sit down.

Gu Zaizi ordered the servants to change into tea, fruit juice, and pastries. From the beginning to the end, Gu Zaizi held onto memorial’s wrist tightly.

Memorial struggled for a few times but could not break free. Later, he allowed Gu Zaizi to hold onto him. When they reached this place, memorial lowered his voice and asked, “How long are you going to hold onto me?”

“If I can, I really want to chop off your legs and hands and lock them in my room. I Can’t go anywhere.”Gu Zaizi did not mind that song Mian and Yun Xiangxiang were right beside him. He directly said to memorial coldly.

However, Ji Nian was not angry at all, instead, he extended his other hand to him. “Come, come, come. Remember to find a sharp knife. One slash is more merciful. If one slash can’t cut it off, another slash would be too cruel. “As for my feet, I still have to wash them. I’m afraid that if I stick them out like this, young master Gu will be fuming.”

Ji Nian was seriously discussing how to chop off his own hands and feet. This really made Yun Xiangxiang flabbergasted.

Gu Zaizi’s face turned darker and darker. Yun Xiangxiang could not help but notice that Gu Zaizi was squeezing his hands harder and harder, as if he wanted to crush Gu Zaizi’s bones and flesh.

Yun Xiangxiang felt pain just by looking at it, but memorial was smiling from the beginning to the end, as if he did not feel anything.

Song Mian was calm and composed, as if nothing had happened around him. Yun Xiangxiang was not as calm as he was, and she did not know how to react.

Helping a group of mementos seemed to be a private matter between a couple. Yun Xiangxiang was really afraid that Gu Zaizi would explode.

Yun Xiangxiang was in a dilemma. Song Mian held her hand and asked her, “Do you like fish?”

Song Mian and Yun Xiangxiang had been together for so long, but they really did not find anything that Yun Xiangxiang liked other than ice cream and cake. As long as the food was delicious, she would be able to eat it very well, without any bias.

“I like to eat all the delicious food.”Yun Xiangxiang smiled at him.

“I know a restaurant that sells grilled fish. It tastes really good. Let’s make an appointment some other day. I’ll bring you to eat it.”Memorial did not go against Gu Zaizi. Instead, he answered Yun Xiangxiang’s question.

“Okay.”Yun Xiangxiang agreed immediately. Then, she asked, “Do you work in Shenshi?”

“Although the company is here, I often travel on business. Are you here to shoot a movie or are you passing by?”Memorial asked.

“I’m shooting a movie here. I’ll probably shoot a movie here for more than a month.”Yun Xiangxiang hoped to shoot until the end of June so that she could directly participate in the film festival in Shenshi. Otherwise, she would have to fly here again.

It was only mid-april now, so it was impossible to shoot for more than two months. At this moment, she prayed that Wei Shanwen would make more trouble.

“It just so happens that I also have to deal with some things here. I’ll be here for a while. which production team are you from? I’ll visit you and take you to eat good food.”Memorial chatted happily with Yun Xiangxiang just like that.

“I’m in the production team of Soar to the sky. The production team is…”Yun Xiangxiang told memorial the location of the filming location.

Memorial took note of it seriously and the two of them began to talk about delicacies.

Yun Xiangxiang only knew how to eat. She was a complete noob when it came to what was available. The few delicacies she had were all popular topics for song Mian.

Most of them were for memorial. Memorial was a know-it-all. She seemed to know everything and had been to many places. She could blurt out the local specialties and delicacies of any region.

The two ladies became more and more engrossed in their conversation. Song Mian was fine. It was rare for Yun Xiangxiang to be so happy, so he did not disturb her.

Although Gu Zaizi did not show any displeasure, his face was cold and his jaw was tense.

Yun Xiangxiang guessed that it was not because she distracted memorials. Gu Zaizi was not so ungentlemanly.

He must have thought of some unpleasant memories that made him look like this.

“Hahahaha, I’ve finally caught you.”There was a burst of loud laughter on the other side.

A golden fish was pulled out of the fish pond. It swayed under the setting sun, giving off an even more dazzling light.

After the fish was dragged out, someone walked over with a bucket of water. Then, he took the fishing rod from the old man and began to clean it up.

Song Mian brought Yun Xiangxiang up. The old man took the hot towel and wiped his hands. Then, he walked over to them.

“Aiya, I’ve recovered from my illness and you’ve disappeared. Didn’t you say that you came to visit me every new year or that I’m not worthy enough to work for you?”Master GU pretended to be serious as he questioned Song Mian.
