Chu Dingbang saw the person coming in and stood up to greet him. “Brother Xiu.”
The others also stood up and greeted the newcomer.
After Jee Xiu exchanged greetings with everyone, he looked at Gu Junzhu with a faint smile. “Fifth Brother is here too.”
Only then did Gu Junzhu stand up, “Let’s sit together.”
Jee Xiu was also known as one of the third generation elites of Beijing, but he spent most of his time abroad in his childhood, not really in their social circle.
“No, thank you,” Jee Xiu said with a faint smile, “I heard an old friend playing the piano, hence I took the liberty of knocking and coming in.”
He turned his head and looked at Ye Xingbei. His usually bright and gentle gaze turned as soft as water when it fell on her.
“Brother Xiu,” Ye Xingbei, holding Xiao Shu’s hand, walked towards Jee Xiu, looking surprised, “You all know each other?”
Gu Junzhu’s thoughtful gaze swept over Jee Xiu and Ye Xingbei one after the other, suddenly remembering that Jee Xiu was Ye Xinglan’s classmate.
His gaze deepened, and he looped his arm around Ye Xingbei’s shoulder, pulling her into his arms, the corners of his mouth hooking up slightly, “Yes, Beijing is just so big, our grandfathers work together, it’d be hard even if we didn’t want to know each other.”
Jee Xiu’s grandfather and Senior Master Gu were old acquaintances.
Jee Xiu’s parents divorced when he was very young.
As the one at fault was Jee Xiu’s father, custody was awarded to his mother.
Only during vacations and important festivals would Jee Xiu return to Beijing to accompany Senior Master Jee.
Upon seeing Gu Junzhu pulling Ye Xingbei into his arms, Jee Xiu couldn’t help but frown, “What’s going on between Fifth Brother and Beibei…”
“We’re married!” Gu Junzhu stated simply, “Secret marriage! We’ve got the marriage certificate, but haven’t held the wedding ceremony yet.”
“Married?” Jee Xiu could hardly believe it as he stared, a sharp pain in his chest making him feel breathless.
Seeing his reaction, Gu Junzhu became even more convinced of his guess, pushing Ye Xingbei even tighter into his embrace, he casually said, “Yes, we’re married, we haven’t set a date for the wedding ceremony yet, when we do, we’ll be sure to send you an invitation!”
Jee Xiu looked at Ye Xingbei, his face pale.
Their house and the Ye family were neighbours.
He liked Ye Xingbei.
He had liked her for a long time.
But his mother didn’t like Ye Xingbei.
As soon as his mother found out about his affection for Ye Xingbei, she immediately sternly warned him, that she wouldn’t ever agree to him marrying a woman with a child, that he should stop dreaming and sent him back to China, pulling him away from Ye Xingbei.
Just now, as he was passing through the hallway, upon hearing the familiar notes of the piano, it was as if an electric current was rushing through his veins, leaving his whole body numb.
He suddenly realized that his feelings for Ye Xingbei were far deeper than he had imagined.
The fact that he and Ye Xingbei could run into each other here must be fate.
This time, he didn’t want to miss out again.
It didn’t matter if his mother didn’t like it, as long as he did.
His mother had a strong personality. He was worried that his mother would make it difficult for Ye Xingbei when he found out that she was opposed to Ye Xingbei in the past.
But now, he didn’t want to run away anymore.
He had been home for so long without forgetting about Ye Xingbei for a single day, and falling asleep to her piano music every day.
So much so that, in the hallway just now, he had immediately recognized the sound of Ye Xingbei’s piano.
At that moment, it had stirred his soul.
In a matter of seconds, he had decided to pursue Ye Xingbei.
This time, no one, no matter who it was, would be able to stop him.
He was determined to make Ye Xingbei his wife, the woman who will accompany him for the rest of his life and never be apart from him!
