Chapter 101: When Are You Getting Married?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

He really went back in a short time.

Why?

He was a heretic that did not belong in this world. Would he eventually leave?

He thought fiercely that he didn’t want to leave. In this world, there was a mom, a dad, and an uncle. They were all healthy and safe. If he had never tasted the sweetness this life could offer, it would be fine. He could live a life of despair and numbness like in the previous life. But he has received warmth, hope, and happiness.

“I won’t allow anyone to take it away!” Gu Ziyu’s voice was low.

Due to Gu Ziyu’s sudden fainting, Gu Ci protected him as if he were her own eyes. Gu Ziyu also noticed the uneasiness in Gu Ci’s heart and diverted her attention. “Mom, let’s go to Uncle’s house for dinner!”

“Alright, do you miss the braised pork made by Great-Grandma?” Gu Ci nodded.

Gu Ziyu nodded, and she informed Uncle’s wife, Lin Chunli, and took Gu Ziyu to the Jiang family for dinner. Jiang Junlin knew they were coming and cancelled his dinner appointments, leaving work on time.

Gu Ci often brought Gu Ziyu to the Jiang family for dinner. The old lady’s health had recovered quite well, and Gu Ziyu was the only younger generation, so he was very favored. Gu Ci didn’t want them to worry, so she didn’t mention Gu Ziyu’s fainting incident.

Jiang Junlin and Gu Ci privately discussed matters while Gu Ziyu happily entertained the two elderly people and his uncle and aunt. Jiang Minghua said, “What were you two talking about on the balcony? You’re not very sociable.”

Jiang Junlin and Gu Ci had no choice but to return to the living room.

The old master said, “Junlin, don’t you think Ziyu is cute?”

“Cute!” Jiang Junlin, wearing a filter, loved what his sister loved, naturally. Besides, Gu Ziyu was indeed likable. Who wouldn’t like a talented and knowledgeable child with a smiling face?

“You should get married after you graduate and have a son. He’ll be almost the same age as Ziyu.”

Jiang Junlin and Gu Ci were rendered speechless.

Gu Ziyu never expected it to turn into a matchmaking scene. He took the apple handed to him by his aunt and happily started eating, satisfied with watching the drama unfold.

“Grandpa, I’m not in a hurry,” Jiang Junlin said.

“You’re already twenty-eight, almost thirty, and you’re not in a hurry?” Grandpa urged for marriage, as was usual.

“Twenty-seven!” Jiang Junlin pointed out the mistake with great rigor. “I haven’t had my birthday yet.”

Jiang Minghua joined in, also part of the matchmaking family.

“You’re twenty-seven now. In the past nine months, rounding up, you’re twenty-eight. When 1 was twenty-eight, you were already three.”

Jiang Junlin remained composed, drinking his tea without saying a word.

The old lady asked, “Cici, do you have any suitable classmates or friends to introduce to your brother?”

Lin Chunyan intervened, “Aren’t they too young? Cici’s friends and classmates are almost the same age as her.”

“Yes, it’s too young for a match with Junlin,” Lin Chunli added.

Jiang Junlin could only gape at them.

Now that Jiang Minghua had become familiar with Gu Ci, his true nature was exposed. He had a somewhat impatient temperament. “Even if you start dating someone immediately, it takes about six months to fall in love and another six months to prepare for the wedding. If you get married right away and have a baby, the fastest you’ll have one is when you’re thirty. It’s not too young. Consider choosing a girl from a prestigious family. If you don’t like it, our family doesn’t care about matching status. You can find anyone you like, and we won’t object.”

Jiang Junlin smelled the fragrance of tea, gently stirring the tea leaves, and asked calmly, “Just finding someone I like is enough?”

“Yes!” Jiang Minghua said, “Finding someone you like is enough. As the distinguished president of Hualan Bank, you’re twenty-eight and still single. The media even wrote that you have a rare illness. Haven’t you seen it?”

Gu Ci didn’t know what to think.

Gu Ziyu choked on his apple, and Lin Chunli said, “What are you saying in front of a child?”

“The child is still young and doesn’t understand,” Gu Ci explained.

Gu Ziyu, along with the old lady’s gesture, drank the water she handed to him. He thought to himself, Sorry, I understand.

“What if the person I like is a boyfriend?” Gu Ziyu’s statement was shocking.

Jiang Junlin raised an eyebrow, and the whole family fell silent, looking at Gu Ziyu in astonishment. Gu Ziyu casually continued eating his apple as if nothing had happened. “Grandpa, Grandma, in our doctoral class, there is a couple of guys who are dating.”

Everyone gaped at him.

The old master was furious. “This goes against traditions and norms.”

Jiang Minghua and Lin Chunli both looked at Jiang Junlin, their expressions changing drastically. After so many years, their son had always been virtuous and upright. Could it be true that his preferences were unconventional?

“Junlin, 1 raised you to be an outstanding individual. Even in the entertainment industry, you are a pinnacle of appearance, knowledge, family background, and charm. For so many years, you haven’t shown any interest in others. Could it be that you truly…” Lin Chunli clutched her heart, giving a look of fainting.

“Mom, stop acting.” Jiang Junlin had a headache facing the pressure from his elders. “1 just… have high standards.”

“Really?”

Jiang Junlin nodded with composure. “Yes!”

“Then let us help you find someone suitable.” The old lady said, “I have a granddaughter of an old friend. She is a pianist who just returned from studying abroad. She is also suitable in age for Junlin. Shall we meet another day?”

Jiang Junlin put down his teacup. “I’m busy with work.”

“No matter how busy you are, you still have to eat. It’s settled then. I’ll arrange a meeting with my old friend, and you young people can meet. We’re not asking you to fall in love, just make friends.” The old lady eagerly arranged the marriage, which is why Jiang Minghua got married right after graduation.

Gu Ziyu finished eating an apple and the melon, feeling a bit gleeful. “Uncle, take me on the blind date too. 1 want to see.”

“Uncle?” Jiang Junlin raised an eyebrow. “You call Gu Ci ‘Sister,’ and me ‘Uncle’?”

Am I that old?

“Yes, Ziyu, did you get the generations wrong?” the old master said.

Gu Ziyu smiled sweetly. “Brother, Big Brother Junlin.”

Gu Ci covered her eyes, feeling helpless but enjoying the relaxed atmosphere of this family.

Gu Ziyu and Gu Ci stayed at the Jiang family’s house that night. Lin Chunli took care of everything, and both Gu Ziyu and Gu Ci felt comfortable staying there. Gu Ziyu hadn’t slept with his mom for many years and missed it dearly.

He took a selfie with Gu Ci and sent it to Lu Zhiyuan.

Gu Ziyu: Brother, tonight I’m sleeping with Sister.

Gu Ci looked at his actions and smiled. “Why do you like to provoke him?”

“He provoked me first.”

Gu Ziyu lay in bed, snuggling up to Gu Ci. “Mom, why hasn’t Dad replied to me?”

“He has a competition tomorrow. He’s busy,” Gu Ci lightly laughed. How could Third Master care about Gu Ziyu’s provocation? “Ziyu, is there anything else bothering you?”

“Mom, I’m fine. I’m just tired. 1’11 go to sleep early and make sure not to worry you.”

“Okay, then sleep without waiting for your dad’s message.”

“Okay!” Gu Ziyu was obedient. He lay beside Gu Ci, his eyes sparkling. Following the example of a child, he acted spoiled. “Mom, it’s been a long time since we slept together.”

Gu Ci hugged him. “Baby, you’ve grown up.”

She kissed Gu Ziyu and coaxed him, “Go to sleep..”
