Chapter 228 Are You Married?
Gong Liu's car stopped in the Gu family's yard. Today, the villa's yard was empty. It was unusually quiet outside, so quiet that it was a little weird...
"No one is going out... to pick up guests?" Gong Liu thought to himself, not knowing whether he should get off the car.
Logically speaking, when the Gu family saw Kong Yoo coming, they should have welcomed him warmly, so why was there no movement at all?
Unlike the quiet scene outside, the villa is bustling with activity.
Gu's mother Liu Yun personally supervises the kitchen to ensure that there are no problems with the dishes produced.
Gu Tianhan ordered people to clean the villa and rearrange the layout of the house. He also moved out all his treasured antiques and placed them in the display cabinet. He did this to make the house look more grand and also to indirectly reflect the importance the Gu family attaches to their son-in-law, Kong Liu.
Gu Chenxi was also asked by her parents to put on makeup and change into formal clothes - at this moment, she didn't know why her parents made such a big fuss.
In her opinion, Gong Yoo was just coming for a quick meal, so why did he have to put on makeup and change into a dress, as if he was getting engaged?
Everyone at home was busy except Gu Chenxuan, who had nothing to do. She was sitting on the sofa playing with her cell phone out of boredom.
Hearing the sound of wheels rolling outside the house, Gu Chenxuan immediately ran to the door and took a look at the surveillance camera at the gate - a car with a little golden man standing on the front was parked at the door.
Gu Chenxuan immediately shouted to the people who were busy in the house: "Dad, Mom, Sister, someone is coming to the door!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the three of them dropped what they were doing and ran to the door.
As Kong Yoo got out of the car, the door of Gu's villa slowly opened.
Looking at the four members of the Gu family standing in a row in solemn attire, Kong Liu suddenly felt an invisible pressure.
Putting aside the family strength of both sides, it was the first time that Kong Liu came to Gu Chenxi's house as her boyfriend. His girlfriend's parents were dressed so seriously that it was hard not to feel pressured.
Gu Tianhan: "Xiao Kong is here, hurry up, come into the house quickly."
Liu Yun: "Look at you, you just come, why do you bring anything with you?"
Gu Chenxuan: "Brother Kong, this Want Want gift package must be bought for me, right?"
Gu Chenxi's family members enthusiastically brought Kong Liu into the house and closed the door. They seemed to have forgotten someone...
Gu Chenxi stood at the door, dumbfounded. She knocked on the door and shouted, "I'm still outside! So I'm the outsider?"
"Uncle and aunt, as you know, I have been busy with my family's business these days. I just finished it this morning. I was in a hurry and didn't prepare any gifts. I just bought some ordinary tea and supplements..."
As Gong Yoo was talking, he was about to put his things on the coffee table in the living room, but he found that the layout of the living room had completely changed and he couldn't find the coffee table.
Where the coffee table was originally placed, Gu Tianhan placed a high-end display cabinet with an antique vase inside.
Liu Yun saw Gong Liu's embarrassment and immediately reached out to take the things in his hand, saying: "It's not your first time here, it's enough for you to be here, why do you need to give me a gift?"
Gu Tianhan pointed at the sofa and said, "Come on, Xiao Kong, come and sit down."
"Okay uncle..."
Gong Liu nodded and sat on the sofa. He was a little stiff and only sat halfway on the sofa. He put his hands on his knees, legs together, and lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake.
Gu Tianhan thought: "When you kissed my daughter a few days ago, you didn't look like this..."
"Pfft~"
It was also the first time that Gu Chenxi saw Gong Liu like this, and she couldn't help but laugh.
She smiled and her father immediately glared at her.
Gu Chenxi immediately ran into the kitchen dejectedly, and came out a few moments later with a cup of hot tea and handed it to Kong Liu.
"Thank you."
Gong Yoo's thank you sounded a little stiff, because after being with Gu Chenxi, he rarely acted so politely - it felt strange to say "thank you" to his girlfriend every day.
Gu Chenxi was also amused by Kong Liu's thank you, but she didn't dare to laugh, so she could only hold it back.
Looking at Gu Chenxi who was trying to hold back her laughter, Kong Liu also wanted to laugh, but at such a serious moment, he didn't dare to laugh and could only hold it back.
Gu Tianhan looked at the two people's strange expressions and their red faces from trying not to laugh, and thought, "Is this also a way for young people to communicate?"
After serving the tea, Gu Chenxi quickly left the living room—looking for a place to hide and laugh.
Gong Yoo couldn't leave, so he could only sit there and try to hold back his laughter until he couldn't smile anymore.
At this moment, only Gu Tianhan and Kong Liu were left on the sofa in the living room.
The two of them stared at each other and were awkward for a while.
Gu Tianhan tried hard to recall the scene when he met his father-in-law, and thought: "What did my father-in-law ask me back then? I have to find something to ask Gong Liu..."
When Gu Tianhan married Gu Chenxi's mother, his family conditions were not very good. He was just a poor student who had just graduated from college, but Liu Yun's family was already a well-off family at that time.
Liu Yun insisted on marrying this poor boy despite her parents' opposition. Seeing that his family was poor, the Liu family did not ask for a dowry from Gu Tianhan, but instead gave their daughter a dowry.
The first capital for Gu Tianhan's business was his wife's dowry. After he became successful, the first house and the first car he bought were both in his wife's name. As the business grew bigger and bigger, he also bought a new house for his father-in-law's family.
Gu Tianhan thought for a long time and found that the questions his father-in-law asked him were all about family conditions and financial status. It would be useless to ask Kong Liu those questions, after all, the Kong family is wealthy.
After thinking for a long time, Gu Tianhan's first words scared Kong Liu: "Xiao Kong, are you married?"
"what?"
Kong Liu looked at Gu Tianhan stupidly, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
He thought to himself: "Is this... also a test?"
After Gu finished speaking, he touched his face awkwardly, thinking to himself, "Damn it, I said the wrong thing."
Gong Liu really thought that Gu Tianhan was testing him, so he thought about it seriously and said, "Uncle, bigamy is a crime. Xiaoxi is my first love. I have only had one girlfriend since I was a child. Don't worry, I only love her!"
Gu Tianhan listened to Kong Liu's answer and thought, "Can you answer this?"
After Kong Liu finished speaking, Gu Tianhan nodded and said, "Well, it's good. Thinking back to the time when I was with Gu Chenxi's mother..."
The two started chatting, and the awkward atmosphere gradually eased.
The two sisters Gu Chenxi and Gu Chenxuan, who were standing on the second floor, were observing secretly. From their perspective, their father and Kong Liu were chatting enthusiastically while watching the cartoon "Pink Hair Dryer Pig" being shown on the TV in the living room.
The two were filled with doubts.
Gu Chenxi said: "Tell me, what is there to talk about in this cartoon?"
Gu Chenxuan shook her head: "I don't know, they seemed quite happy to see it, and they even laughed."
