Chapter 1084: Chapter 1088 Good News

“Xiao Xue,” Ye Xingbei said, “she asked you to help ask Han Zuo if he is free tomorrow night, so the four of us can have dinner together. She said she asked Han Zuo tonight, but Han Zuo said he wasn’t free.”

“Han Zuo really isn’t free tonight,” Gu Junzhu said. “He has a social engagement.”

His body can’t handle alcohol, and he wasn’t fond of empty pleasantries at the dinner table, so he rarely attended business social events, leaving it to Han Zuo and Yu Mo to go on his behalf.

“Oh, that’s good. I was worried that he wasn’t interested in Xiao Xue and didn’t want to have dinner with her.” Ye Xingbei felt somewhat relieved.

Gu Junzhu rubbed the back of her head. “Don’t worry too much. The master leads the way, but it’s up to the individuals to progress. Their future depends on their own fate; your worrying won’t help.”

Ye Xingbei chuckled. “Can ‘the master leads the way, but it’s up to the individuals to progress’ really be used like this?”

Gu Junzhu raised an eyebrow. “Why not? Don’t you think it’s quite fitting?”

Ye Xingbei thought for a moment then nodded, “Okay, it is quite fitting.”

Gu Junzhu rubbed the back of her head again. “Alright, stop overthinking and go to sleep.”

The next morning, when she woke up, Gu Junzhu was no longer by her side.

Looking at the time, she could still lie in bed for a while longer.

After lounging in bed for a while, she got up, washed, dressed, and went downstairs.

In the living room, Senior Master Gu was talking with Gu Junzhu, Qiao Zui, and Mi Sheng around the coffee table.

Seeing her come downstairs, Senior Master Gu cheerfully called out to her, “Beibei, your timing is perfect. There’s good news.”

Ye Xingbei always loved hearing good news.

She called out “Dad” and sat down next to Gu Junzhu.

Senior Master Gu said happily, “Didn’t I go to pick a wedding date for Xiao Mi and Ah Zui? They just got back to me. Not only did they set the wedding date, but they also chose the engagement date.”

“Really?” Ye Xingbei quickly asked with great enthusiasm, “Which day is it?”

“The wedding day is one month from now,” Senior Master Gu said with a smiling eyes. “A month later is good, Xiao Mi is pregnant, the earlier the marriage, the better. One month is just enough time for us to prepare and organize a grand wedding for Xiao Mi and Ah Zui, without it being too rushed and making Xiao Mi feel slighted. Although, the engagement date is a bit rushed; they said the day after tomorrow is auspicious. I’m asking Xiao Mi now, but I don’t know if her parents will think it’s too rushed.”

“It won’t be a problem, Grandfather,” Mi Sheng said. “It’s just an engagement; both families simply having a meal together is fine, anytime is acceptable.”

“Yes, Grandfather,” Qiao Zui said. “Xiao Mi’s father is very pleased with our marriage. I’ll discuss it with him later, and there definitely won’t be an issue.”

Everyone in the family shared only the good news, and no worries.

The unhappiness that had occurred at the Mi Family home was not discussed with Senior Master Gu.

However, having not dined at the Mi Family home that day, Senior Master Gu could guess there might have been some issues, and it wasn’t just about Mi Sheng’s pregnancy.

But he was a clear-minded and magnanimous elder. Since the younger generation didn’t mention it, it indicated they could resolve the matter themselves and didn’t want him to know. He pretended to be oblivious and asked no questions.

Seeing that both Mi Sheng and Qiao Zui said there was no problem, he nodded happily and turned to Gu Junzhu, “Xiao Zhu, call Mi Sheng’s father personally and speak with him. If he has any dissatisfaction, I’ll talk to him later.”

In terms of seniority, he was a generation above Mi Sheng’s father.

In terms of status, he was several levels above Mi Sheng’s father.

Even if Mi Sheng’s father was dissatisfied with the rushed engagement, he would likely still show some deference.
