Gu Xi, who was sitting at the side, looked into her brother’s eyes. She stood up and coughed. “Brother, why don’t you guide Sister Bai to her seat first?”

Gu Xi’s words broke the tension between the locked gazes between the two. The title “Sister Bai” also pulled Su Liang back to reality. She hadn’t finished her role yet, yet she was getting distracted again.

“Gu Han, is the bride-to-be too beautiful? You’ve been looking at her for a long time. Don’t just stand there like a fool. Hurry up and bring Bai Qing to proclaim her,” a woman suddenly said with a smile.

“Cousin-in-law, look at you,” Gu Xi turned her head and said to the woman beside her.

It turned out that this was Gu Han’s cousin-in-law. Su Liang’s face slightly blushed when she heard her words, but her foundation hid it well.

Su Liang raised her head and looked at Gu Han’s cousin-in-law. She was wearing a well-tailored long dress and her hair was bunned up high. She looked very elegant. She had thought that she would be difficult to get along with, but she didn’t expect her to speak so gently.

Gu Han seemed to be able to sense the shyness of the woman next to him, so he moved closer to Su Liang and said, “This is my cousin-in-law. Don’t be nervous. She’s a very nice person.”

Gu Han was too close to her, so the hot air he exhaled hit Su Liang’s earlobe, which immediately turned red. It was too sensitive there, so Su Liang couldn’t help but shrink back.

Gu Han looked at the woman who was evading him. Her earlobe was red, and the smile on his face couldn’t be hidden.

“Look at this young couple. They’re not married yet, but they’re already so intimate,” his cousin-in-law said with a smile.

When the people around them heard this, they couldn’t help but tease them, “Young Master Gu and his wife seem to have a really good relationship. I’m really envious of them.”

As they heard the words of the people around them, Su Liang blushed so much that she didn’t even dare to raise her head.

“Alright, stop talking. You can’t shut your mouths even if you eat well,” Gu Han said first.

“Young Master Gu knows how to protect us. It’s not easy. Alright, stop talking.” His cousin-in-law ordered everyone to stop talking at the right time.

Gu Han started toasting with Su Liang, one table at a time.

No one noticed that a pair of eyes were watching Su Liang’s back from behind. It was Chen Yan. When he first saw the female lead of the day, he felt that Bai Qing looked a little different tonight.

Bai Qing’s personality today was surprisingly demure. Even Chen Yan could see that she was constantly shy. It was really too different from how she looked when they met in the past.

As he thought of this, Chen Yan no longer hesitated. He took out his cell phone from his pocket and was about to call Su Liang. At that moment, she should have just finished her part-time job and gone home. However, the phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.

“Brother Chen Yan, what are you doing? Hurry up, brother and the others are coming.” Chen Yan had no choice but to hang up the phone after hearing Gu Xi’s words.

However, he grew even more confused. Su Liang should have reached home by now. Although she had rejected his advances, she was not so rude a person as to ignore phone calls.

“Brother, Happy Engagement.” Chen Yan and Gu Xi looked at the two people standing in front of them and raised their wine glasses in front of them.

“Well, thank you.” Gu Han finished the wine in the glass in one go. When she saw that, Su Liang felt embarrassed not to drink. Just as she put the wine glass to her mouth, she was stopped by Gu Han, “Don’t drink anymore. You can’t hold your liquor.”

“Ah, Brother Gu Han, you’re not married yet. It’s not good to drink like this.” Gu Xi had never seen her brother block the wine for anyone before.

“Okay, it’s not good to let Sister Bai drink too much in today’s situation,” Chen Yan said subconsciously. Although he was not sure whether the person in front of him was Su Liang or Bai Qing… Chen Yan did not want her to drink.

“Alright, I’m just saying. Look at the two of you. Humph, I’m going to fall out of favor,” Gu Xi stuck her tongue out and said.

Su Liang, who had been standing by the side, did not make a sound. She just felt awkward listening to Gu Han and the others talking about her..
