After Transmigration: Unexpectedly Wed the Ruthless Tycoon-Chapter 81 Why Wait Until Today

After a good night’s sleep, when Gu Fuqiao opened her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttered twice.

A man’s strong jawline came into view. She blinked and realized she was tightly held in Yan Zhen Guo’s embrace. Without a pillow last night, she had slept all night in the crook of his strong arm. It turned out to be quite comfortable.

Looks like she could try this more often; Yan Zhen Guo’s arm is more comfortable than a pillow.

"Awake?" Yan Zhen Guo’s voice came from above her head.

Gu Fuqiao knew that Yan Zhen Guo never got up later than she did. She nodded and said, "Awake. You know, this bamboo bed is surprisingly comfortable; we should sleep on it more often." After speaking, she nuzzled her head against Yan Zhen Guo’s arm.

There was a hint of amusement in Yan Zhen Guo’s eyes, and the soft nuzzle felt very pleasant.

He released Gu Fuqiao, sat up, and said, "It’s getting late, you should go make breakfast. The old gentleman is probably already up too."

Gu Fuqiao looked at the sky outside. Although it should still not be six yet, it wasn’t early, so she immediately got up to cook breakfast.

As soon as she stepped out, she found the old man sitting in the living room drinking tea. Seeing his calm demeanor made her a bit embarrassed... The old man had gotten up so early, he must have seen their sleeping position on the balcony.

Gu Fuqiao bit her lip lightly and said, "Dad, you’re up so early. Just wait a moment, I’ll go make breakfast." With that, she hurried into the kitchen.

After Gu Fuqiao entered the kitchen, Mr. Yan Senior looked up to see Yan Zhen Guo, wearing a tank top, walking in from the balcony. Although his face was stern, there was a hint of laughter in his eyes.

Inside the kitchen, Gu Fuqiao found An Ran also standing there. An Ran had her hands behind her back, looking like a supervisor inspecting the premises.

"An... An Ran?" Gu Fuqiao called out to her with some confusion.

Hearing Gu Fuqiao’s words, An Ran quickly turned around, and seeing Gu Fuqiao standing there, she smiled sheepishly and said, "Sister-in-law, you’re up really early too?"

Gu Fuqiao, hearing this, somewhat helplessly said, "Actually, I’d like to sleep more too, but isn’t there someone who needs to go out early every morning? So I have to get up before the chickens every day."

As she spoke, she walked to the stove. Gu Fuqiao figured there were several people at home today, so she scooped out some rice. While rinsing the rice, she sensed someone behind her, turned around, and saw it was An Ran.

"An Ran, what are you up to?" Gu Fuqiao asked, puzzled.

An Ran glanced at the rice in Gu Fuqiao’s hand and said, "Sister-in-law, I tried your cooking yesterday, it’s really good! So I want to learn a bit from you, can you teach me?"

Cooking was something Gu Fuqiao prided herself in. She nodded and said, "Sure, I’ll show you."

For breakfast, she made a big pot of congee, garlic cucumber, and cold blood-freshening vegetables.

An Ran really seemed unable to cook. Watching Gu Fuqiao swiftly prepare the dishes left her a bit amazed, "Sister-in-law, I’ll help you bring out the dishes!"

She stepped forward and took the cold dish from Gu Fuqiao’s hands, saying, "Sister-in-law, you’re really good at cooking. It’s a pity I’m going back to the capital and can only learn a tiny bit. Next time Brother Yan brings you back, can you teach me some hot dishes?"

Seeing An Ran’s sincere attitude, and having a good impression of her, Gu Fuqiao nodded, saying, "It’s just a small skill, if you want to learn, I certainly have no reason to refuse."

An Ran nodded, took the other cold dish from Gu Fuqiao’s hands, and said, "Thank you, Sister-in-law, I’m here to help." With that, she went out with the two cold dishes.

Breakfast was quickly finished. After Mr. Yan Senior drank two bowls of congee, he suddenly looked at Yan Zhen Guo and Gu Fuqiao and said, "We’re heading back to the capital tonight. We should visit the Gu family during the day today."

For Gu Fuqiao, apart from Old Mrs. Gu, the others in the Gu family were less than admirable.

She wasn’t particularly keen on having Mr. Yan Senior visit the Gu family, thinking of the embarrassing behavior of her parents... it was truly embarrassing.

Gu Fuqiao glanced at Yan Zhen Guo sitting beside her. Although Yan Zhen Guo wasn’t looking at her, he put down his chopsticks and said, "There’s no need to go, the Gu family isn’t around these days."

"What’s going on?" Mr. Yan Senior asked after hearing this.

Yan Zhen Guo said, "My in-laws went to visit relatives these days, and Grandma was invited elsewhere to paint." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Mr. Yan Senior was aware of the Gu family’s background and naturally knew what kind of person Old Mrs. Gu was, so he said without hesitation, "Alright then, after lunch, An Ran and I will return to the capital. Zhen Guo, remember to bring your wife next time you’re on leave, or during the New Year."

Yan Zhen Guo had no intention of agreeing with Mr. Yan Senior.

Knowing Yan Zhen Guo’s attitude towards his father wasn’t great, Gu Fuqiao replied on his behalf, "Sure, Dad, don’t worry, we’ll come by whenever we can. I’ve never been to the capital and want to see what the Imperial City is like."

Upon hearing Gu Fuqiao’s words, Mr. Yan Senior laughed and said, "Great, the capital is quite fun. We’ll be staying in a courtyard, with old Prince Mansions around. You can let Zhen Guo show you around."

Gu Fuqiao nodded and said, "Sounds good."

After eating, Yan Zhen Guo went out. Although only the three of them were home for lunch, because Mr. Yan Senior was returning to the capital, Gu Fuqiao made the meal especially rich, and An Ran continuously asked for tips during her cooking process.

After they finished eating, when Gu Fuqiao saw them off and was heading upstairs, she saw Chen Bajin standing at the door waiting for her. Seeing her return, he smiled and said, "Ah Jiao, who was that girl just now? She’s so pretty. Is she Captain Yan’s sister?"

"No," Gu Fuqiao lightly shook her head and said, "She’s a friend who grew up with Zhen Guo. She came with Dad to see us and now went back to the capital."

"A friend, huh." Hearing this, Chen Bajin lightly bit his lip and said, "Such a pretty friend, isn’t she married?"

"Probably not, I’m not sure either." Gu Fuqiao walked to Chen Bajin and said, "Bajin, why are you being so nosy?"

Chen Bajin shook his head and said, "Nothing! I just thought if such a pretty girl isn’t married... and if she’s always around your Captain Yan, what if Captain Yan falls for her?"

What if he does fall for her? Honestly, she hadn’t considered this problem, but there was no need to think too much.

Yan Zhen Guo and An Ran had known each other for so many years. If he were to fall for her, he would have done so long ago, no need to wait until today.
