Chapter 22 Gu Xiao
Long Chen's words spiked Li Shiqi's anger.
"Bastard! How dare you speak to me like that! Do you call that threatening you? You aren't worthy for Yuechan if you can't even do something so simple."
Li Shiqi clenched his fists tightly as if wanting to punch Long Chen.
Long Chen smiled and ignored Li Shiqi. He walked straight into his room.
"Yueshan, look at him. His attitude is... Does he think that he could do whatever he wants in this house? Remember to tell him that he lives under someone else's roof, so stop thinking highly of himself."
Li Shiqi said sternly.
When Li Yuechan heard this, she didn't say anything and silently walked into her room.
Li Yuechan couldn't bear her parents' attitude towards Long Chen either.
She found Long Chen in the room. Worried that Long Chen would be upset, Li Yuechan tried to start a new topic.
Li Yuechan would not have cared much if it was in the past.
"Yuechan, I'll think of a way to get the money."
Long Chen comforted Li Yuechan.
"You are not planning to go to the Wang family to borrow money, are you? You shouldn't go. They will look down upon us," Li Yuechan said with a bitter smile.
"I won't borrow money from them," Long Chen said with a smile, "Don't worry. I'll think of another way."
"Is there any other way? You..."
Li Yuechan paused when she suddenly remembered Gu Changming, who they encountered at the hospital.
Long Chen had said that he was going to visit Gu Changming the next day. She pondered, "Could it be that Long Chen wanted to borrow money from Gu Changming?"
Li Yuechan became even more anxious at the thought of this.
"Long Chen, you can do whatever you want, but you shouldn't borrow money from Old Master Gu."
Li Yue Chan warned.
"Why?" Long Chen asked in a puzzle.
"You don't know Old Master Gu that well," Li Yuechan said, "Old Master Gu has been in the Seven Star City for his entire life. If you borrow his money and can't pay it back in the future, the consequences will be unimaginable. You might even lose your life."
"I know. Don't worry. I have my ways."
Long Chen consoled li yuechan.
"Well. Anyway, it's okay if you can't borrow it. We'll think of other ways. As for mom and dad, I'll talk to them. You don't have to feel burdened."
Li Yuechan comforted softly.
"Honey, you wouldn't have treated me like this in the past. I like how we are now."
"You're willing to give up your life for me. If I don't treat you better, I won't be able to find a second man who would treat me like this in the future."
Li Yuechan smiled gently.
"You're the best, honey."
Long Chen reached out and hugged li Yuechan.
Li Yuechan didn't try to avoid him like before. Instead, she cuddled in Long Chen's arms and closed her eyes like an obedient kitten.
It was a simple hug. Li Yuechan had no other thoughts in mind.
To him, holding her like this was something he had never dared to dream of in the past.
Li Yuechan woke up Long Chen in the morning.
"Hubby, someone is looking for you."
Li Yuechan immediately told Long Chen after he opened his eyes.
"Who is it?"
Long Chen rubbed his eyes and sat up.
"Old Master Gu has sent someone to pick you up. Get up quickly. Don't make them wait."
Li Yuechan lifted the blanket.
It was still morning, so Long Chen, a young man, would experience morning tent.
Hence, Li Yuechan saw a scene in which she wasn't supposed to feel shy.
"This..."
Li Yuechan's face turned red, and she quickly turned around. She stuttered, "You... pervert! Come out quickly."
After saying that, Li Yuechan ran out of the room embarrassedly.
Long Chen dressed up and went out. When he came to the living room, he heard Han Min talking to a man in a suit.
"Sir, although Long Chen is our son-in-law, it is only a status. He is not married to our daughter for real. So, if Long Chen has offended Old Master Gu, please tell him that it has nothing to do with the Li family."
Han Min spoke at a quick speed and told plenty of things.
The man in a suit frowned slightly and didn't answer.
"Mom, stop it."
Li Yuechan was speechless.
"Shut up."
Han Min rolled her eyes at Li Yuechan.
Long Chen stepped forward. He looked at the man in a suit and said indifferently, "Let's go."
The man in the suit saw Long Chen and quickly stood up. "Mr. Long!"
"Hmm."
Long Chen nodded and walked out.
The man in a suit followed behind Long Chen respectfully.
Han Min and her husband were dumbfounded and couldn't understand the situation.
"What's going on?"
Han Min glanced at Li Yuechan.
"I have no idea," Li Yuechan said unhappily.
"Yuechan, it's impossible that you don't know. Tell me, how did Long Chen get involved with Old Master Gu?" Li Shiqi could not help but ask.
Li Yuechan shook her head and forced a smile. "I don't know. I'll ask him later. Sigh! I feel like long Chen has changed into a different person ever since he woke up from his coma."
"Heh! Are you trying to say some miracles happen? Did he get some superpower? Or did someone change his brain?"
Li Yuexin said in a strange tone.
"Yuexin, you are my sister. I have no intention of picking on you or fighting with you for anything. I hope that you will respect your brother-in-law in the future. Otherwise, if you pissed him off one day and he beats you up, I can't protect you."
After saying that, Li Yuechan grabbed her bag and left for work.
...
Meanwhile, Long Chen got into a black Mercedes-Benz.
Only after getting into the car did Long Chen realize a beautiful woman in sunglasses was in it.
Her long hair fell over her shoulders, and she was wearing a black miniskirt and black high heels. She looked cold and elegant.
"Hello, I'm Gu Xiao."
She stretched out her hand to have a handshake with Long Chen.
"Are you Old Master Gu's granddaughter?"
Long Chen asked with a smile after shaking her hand.
"Yes," Gu Xiao answered monotonously, "Grandpa asked me to bring a miraculous doctor to treat him. I didn't think to expect you will be so young."
"Miss Gu, you sound like you don't trust me."
"Not only do I not trust you, but I also even suspect that you're a liar," Gu Xiao did not hide her thoughts.
Long Chen smiled. "Old Master Gu is a wise senior. He would have seen through my lies if I were a scammer. Why would he send someone to pick me up?"
"It depends," Gu Xiao said, "I don't believe you can cure my grandfather. I'm not taking you to my house today unless you can prove it to me."
"It's fine for me even if I don't go," Long Chen said.
"You have to go. Let's look for a place where you can demonstrate your skills. If you can defeat me, I'll believe you," Gu Xiao sneered.
"There is no need to go through so much trouble," Long Chen stared at Gu Yu and smiled faintly, "you drank plenty of wine last night. Your stomach's not feeling well today. You almost suffered from the pain of a stomach hemorrhage."
"You must have practiced the same martial arts as your grandfather, so your veins are also damaged, but it's not serious. You need to stop immediately, or you'll end up like your grandfather in the future."
"Words... Words don't prove anything. You have to prove it by action."
Gu Yu clenched her teeth as she spoke.
Although Long Chen was right, she felt that it was not impossible to find out her health condition.
The chauffeur, on the other hand, drove in silence.
Long Chen frowned slightly, thinking that Gu Yu was a little stubborn.
"We can spar, but we have to bet on something. I don't have much time to waste on you," Long Chen said.
"If you can defeat me, you can request anything you want," Gu Yu said confidently.
