Entwined by Dawn: The CEO's Relentless Obsession - Chapter 224: Thank You
Those gazes, she just couldn’t ignore even if she wanted to.
As the awkwardness reached its peak, it was Grandma Gu who suddenly spoke up, her laughter warm and hearty.
"Oh dear, it seems we’re really not quite fitting in here, look at these two youngsters... they’re embarrassed!"
Before Gu Tiantian could speak, Grandma Gu chimed in again.
"Alright, alright, Tian Tian, Chen Yao, I’m doing fine here, plenty to eat and drink, and my health has really improved. I know you’re busy with work, so go on, get back!"
After she finished speaking, Grandma Gu even got her eldest son Gu Qingfeng to get up and see them off.
"Qingfeng, see Chen Yao and the others out."
Gu Qingfeng already felt guilty towards Gu Tiantian, so this was a good chance for him to properly assess his niece, hoping that she wouldn’t hold a grudge and damage their uncle-niece relationship.
Gu Qingfeng nodded quickly and stood up promptly.
Seeing that Grandma was obviously concerned about her awkwardness and urging them out, her cheeks reddened further.
"No need, Uncle, we can head back ourselves."
Gu Qingfeng wanted to talk to his niece alone, but seeing Bai Chenyao already standing there, he felt a bit intimidated.
This future nephew-in-law had an overpowering aura.
"Tian Tian, come over here for a bit, Uncle has something to say to you."
After speaking, Gu Qingfeng mustered up the courage, his mouth pulling into an extremely stiff smile, nodding slightly at Bai Chenyao.
Gu Tiantian was worried that Bai Chenyao would be displeased, but to her surprise, Bai Chenyao nodded as well and then walked out before her and her uncle.
Outside, Gu Tiantian saw Bai Chenyao standing at the elevator doors not far away. Hearing her uncle calling her, she turned back.
"Uncle!"
If she hadn’t overheard the conversation between her uncle and grandma last time, Gu Tiantian felt she might still have reservations towards her uncle.
But now... not at all.
"Hey, Tian Tian!"
Gu Qingfeng’s face was filled with awkwardness, annoyed by his troublesome family’s antics for money, which made him feel ashamed whenever he thought about it.
His expression grew even more embarrassed.
Seeing this, Gu Tiantian suddenly understood.
Noticing her uncle’s awkward expression, Gu Tiantian smiled with her eyes curved.
"Uncle, the past is in the past, let’s not mention it anymore."
Gu Qingfeng didn’t expect his niece to say that, feeling a sharp tug at his heart, and for a man in his fifties, a rough guy nearly six feet tall, he almost broke down in tears.
Seeing this, Gu Tiantian felt even more unsettled in her heart.
"Uncle... take good care of Aunt and Liangliang, after all, in Shengjing, they have only you to rely on."
"Of course, if anything comes up, feel free to give me a call."
Speaking of phones, Gu Tiantian just then remembered that Bai Chenyao had thrown hers away and she had changed her number.
She quickly pulled out her phone and looked at Gu Qingfeng.
"Uncle, I lost my phone, haven’t replaced the SIM card yet, and changed my number. Could you give me your number so I can save it?"
Gu Qingfeng nodded quickly. These past few days, he actually thought of calling his niece, but every time he remembered those outrageous actions shown in the video by his troublesome family, he really didn’t know what to say.
"Okay, sure."
Uncle and niece exchanged numbers, and after getting her aunt’s number from Gu Qingfeng, Gu Tiantian chatted with him for a bit longer before walking with a smile towards Bai Chenyao.
Bai Chenyao’s face was cold and solemn. Gu Tiantian never hoped to discern any emotions from his expression. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Approaching Bai Chenyao, Gu Tiantian raised her doll-like face, her white and tender face like porcelain, wearing a warm smile.
Her bright, dark eyes were very clear and clean.
"Thank you!"
