Rebirth of an Idle Noble Women (200-end)

261-264

Chapter 261: I Want To Sleep With You Tonight

Shu Chen studied Gu Xiqiao from top to bottom, her eyes seemingly burning as she scrutinized the girl in front of her. Gu Xiqiao fidgeted nervously, not knowing where to place her arms and legs, but Shu Chen ignored her fidgeting, and then she suddenly stepped forward to enveloped her in a bear hug.

In the past, the woman wouldn’t have done this, as it differed too much from her usual temperament.

But today, it was different! The more she looked at Gu Xiqiao, the more satisfied she felt in her heart. Not only was she beautiful, she had also saved her once before. The girl was pleasing no matter what angle you looked at her!

Gu Xiqiao was stiff in her arms, mainly because apart from Tang Yanling, there were so few women who would give her hugs that were filled with such warmth.

There was a faint perfume smell coming from Shu Chen’s body, it wasn’t that strong, it was the kind that was more of an aftertaste. Her face was painted with delicate makeup, graceful features that were kind and it washed away the chill that was in her deep eyes.

She never noticed this previously, but now that she was looking closer, Shu Chen’s eyes were very similar to that of Jiang Shuxuan’s. If she squinted and looked closer, with just a little bit heavier pressure, her eyes would be exactly the same as the man.

Then tension in Gu Xiqiao vanished instantly at the thoughts, and she greeted softly, “Aunt Shu.”

Shu Chen felt her heart melt at the soft voice, and she almost wanted to tell Gu Xiqiao to call her ‘mom’ instead, but it didn’t seem right to do so on their first proper meeting. She cleared her throat. “Qiao Qiao, I’m sure you’re hungry. Just wait, there’s a dish that’s my signature dish and it’s already steaming. I’ll go and see if it’s done!”

She rushed off to the kitchen after saying that, going to prepare dinner with Mrs. Zhang.

Jiang Shuxuan stood next to Gu Xiqiao, and he felt as though a stone had lifted from his heart. WIth Shu Chen’s previous attitude, he had been slightly fearful that his mother wouldn’t like Gu Xiqiao. Although in his mind, who wouldn’t like her? Either way, he still couldn’t help the doubts and anxiety that he felt.

“Brother Jiang.” Gu Xiqiao gritted her teeth, glaring at the man. How could he not give her a single word of warning at all?!

Really, she was almost frightened to death!

Jiang Shuxuan rubbed her head gently. “What are you afraid of? My beautiful wife has always wanted to meet her husband’s mother anyway.”

‘What? Are you trying to be cute? Do you think you’re cute? Exactly like Xixi, you’re looking for a beating, aren’t you?!’

Gu Xiqiao didn’t feel like talking to Jiang Shuxuan at the moment, and she brushed his hand away. She turned around and walked towards Baili Bin and the others, who had already started back up their card games during the entire scene. Baili Bin was currently leaning on the sofa, watching Tang Qinghong’s cards.

“How is Aunt Shu?” Baili Bin’s lips curved up, looking at Gu Xiqiao with a gentle expression.

“At least I wasn’t scared to death.” Gu Xiqiao glanced at the direction of the kitchen, then whispered to Baili Bin. “Big Brother Baili, did you already know about it?”

Although she had posed it as a question, she was positive that he already knew. No wonder he had acted so weirdly when she was leading Aunt Shu around the compound the other day.
