Chapter 234 Smoking Not Old Sister
The two of them had been busy in the police station for so long that the New Year's Eve dinner in the house was already ready.
Eating started as soon as they entered the house, and Gu Chenxi felt a little uncomfortable at first.
Mr. Kong sat in the upper seat, Gu Chenxi and Kong Liu were arranged to sit on the left side of the old man, and Kong Cheng and Liu Mengya sat on the right side of the old man.
After sitting down, we started eating.
Gu Chenxi sat upright and politely, with his butt only half touching the stool and his back straight - his nervous look was exactly the same as Gong Liu's at noon, no wonder these two people were so attracted to each other.
Mr. Kong, who usually doesn't smile, smiled slightly, and all the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together. He said to Gu Chenxi: "Little girl, take whatever you want to eat, don't be too restrained."
Liu Mengya looked at Gu Chenxi who was sitting opposite her. She liked him very much. She kept picking food for Gu Chenxi and said, "Xiaoxi, coming here is like going home. Don't be nervous!"
Kong Cheng also said: "Well, if you need anything, or have any dietary restrictions, just tell your uncle and aunt, don't be shy."
“Uh, uh, okay…” Gu Chenxi stood up and hurriedly took the bowl to receive the dishes that Liu Mengya brought, while thanking everyone one by one, “Okay, okay, thank you Grandpa Kong, Aunt Liu, Uncle Kong…”
Gong Yoo sat aside, looking at Gu Chenxi's flustered appearance. He wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, so he could only hold it back, and his face turned red.
When Gu Chenxi put down the bowl and sat back in her seat, she looked at Gong Liu who was trying not to laugh. She suddenly wanted to laugh too. She asked in a low voice, "What's your expression?"
Gong Liu whispered in Gu Chenxi's ear: "The way you just said thank you with a pinched voice... was quite pretentious."
"Screw you!"
Gu Chenxi couldn't help wanting to laugh when listening to what Kong Liu said, but in such a serious dinner, Gu Chenxi really didn't dare to laugh - the first impression had already been affected by the kiss on the rooftop, and if she wasn't more ladylike, the Kong family would dislike her.
So, her face turned red like Gong Yoo, and she didn't dare to smile.
Seeing the strange expressions of the two, the three members of the Kong family looked at each other. They were probably thinking, "What's wrong with these two kids?"
After eating for a while, Kong Cheng habitually took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, then took out two and handed them to Gu Chenxi: "Here!"
"what?"
Gu Chenxi was confused by the cigarette that Kong Cheng suddenly handed over. She was thinking: "Is this also a test?"
Kong Cheng was thinking, "Damn it, the Commerce Bureau usually attends too many events, and I can't help but start to smoke."
"Uncle, I, I, I, I don't smoke!" Gu Chenxi waved his hands in panic and said, "Our family tradition is good. I received a strict education since I was a child. I only learned music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I don't touch tobacco, alcohol, gambling or drugs. Don't worry, Kong Liu is with me, I... I will definitely take good care of him, and I will never let him..."
Kong Cheng listened to Gu Chenxi's babble and thought, "I just handed over a cigarette accidentally, but this little girl seems to have misunderstood it?"
Kong Cheng's action of handing over cigarettes was exactly the same as Gu Tianhan's asking Gong Yoo whether he was married at noon, and both were misunderstood as deliberate tests.
"What are you doing!" Liu Mengya raised her hand and patted Kong Cheng's arm, saying coquettishly, "Xiao Xi doesn't look like a girl who smokes."
After teaching Kong Cheng a lesson, Liu Mengya immediately turned to Gu Chenxi and said, "Xiao Xi, ignore your uncle. He is stubborn. Eat more vegetables."
"Okay, okay." Gu Chenxi agreed, lowered his head, and ate the food silently.
Mr. Kong was halfway through his words when he suddenly asked, "Little girl, Grandpa wants to ask you something."
As soon as the old man spoke, Gu Chenxi raised his head in fear and said, "Well, Grandpa, what's the matter?"
"Don't be nervous, it's not a big deal." Old Master Kong waved his hand. "You came to dinner today and saw it. Our Kong family has been a single-line family for three generations. If... I mean if, you marry my grandson, in the future... in the future you shouldn't take him away and abandon the family business to travel abroad, right?"
When Gu Chenxi heard Mr. Kong say the words "marry my grandson", her face turned red. After hearing the whole sentence, she was a little confused.
She still didn't quite understand what this meant by "leaving the family business behind to travel abroad."
Gu Chenxi didn't understand, but Kong Cheng and Liu Mengya on the side understood what the old man meant. She lowered her head embarrassedly and took two bites of the food.
Although he didn't understand what Mr. Kong meant, Gu Chenxi immediately said, "No, no, I, I usually listen to Kong Liu on everything!"
Gong Liu, who had been sitting on the sidelines without saying anything, almost jumped up and retorted after hearing what Gu Chenxi said: "You are talking nonsense!"
Although Gu Chenxi behaved much softer in front of Gong Liu after they fell in love, but when it came to making decisions, was it always Gong Liu who listened to her?
As long as it can make Gu Chenxi happy, Kong Liu will not hesitate to let Sun Yu give away the foreign trade order for free.
As if sensing the excited reaction of Gong Liu who was sitting next to him, Gu Chenxi immediately glared at him, and that warning look seemed to say: "If you dare to expose me in front of your parents, you are finished! I will be in the mud tonight!"
Kong Liu was frightened by the fierce look and immediately lowered his head, not daring to speak.
"Okay, okay, as long as you don't like traveling."
After listening to Gu Chenxi's words, the old man smiled and nodded. Looking at his granddaughter-in-law in front of him, he became more and more satisfied.
After dinner, Gu Chenxi immediately took out the gift his father had prepared for the Kong family.
The gift given to Mr. Kong was an antique jade ring. The old man had an eye for appraising antiques and could tell at a glance that it was from the late Qing Dynasty.
In the late Qing Dynasty, with the old woman Yehenara coming to power, China's jade wares experienced a brief revival. Because this old woman was obsessed with jadeite, a jadeite craze swept across China in the late Qing Dynasty.
Jade rings also underwent changes in materials. Today, we can see many jade rings from the Qing Dynasty, most of which are from this historical period.
Apart from the jade ring, the gifts given to Gong Yoo's parents were not that impressive. They were just some luxury brand accessories, watches, necklaces, and several large boxes of supplements, cigarettes, and alcohol.
Mr. Kong looked at these things and thought to himself, "Although the Gu family is not very powerful, they still care about their daughter's affairs. Judging from these gifts, it can be seen that they put a lot of effort into it."
After receiving the gift, Liu Mengya insisted on taking Gu Chenxi to the mall to go shopping and buy some gifts as a return gift.
Kong Liu knew his mother's character. If she took Gu Chenxi to the mall, she would probably buy the entire mall and give it to Gu Chenxi.
So, with Gu Chenxi looking for help, Kong Liu successfully stopped his mother by using the excuse that "all shopping malls are closed on New Year's Eve".
Although she was persuaded, Liu Mengya still didn't give up. She said, "It's okay, Xiaoxi, after the New Year, Auntie will take you shopping and buy you beautiful clothes!"
Gu Chenxi waved her hands hurriedly and said, "Really, really no need, Auntie, I have a lot of clothes at home!"
"Hey, hey, how can a girl complain about having too many clothes? Buy, you must buy! After buying clothes, auntie will take you to have a SPA, and then treat you to dinner... Oh, have you ever scratched a lottery ticket? I'll take you to scratch a lottery ticket, it's so fun..."
"Uh...haha..." Auntie was too enthusiastic. Gu Chenxi didn't know what to say and could only respond with a smile.
Gu Chenxi really didn't expect that Kong Liu's mother not only looked young, but also had a young mentality. She lived like a little girl of her age - no, she didn't have to go to school yet!
