Accidentally Married to the Big Shot-Chapter 86 - : Became a Grandfather at 36
Chapter 86 -86: Became a Grandfather at 36
He was referring to her continuing as his wife.
Su Meixi hesitated.
They had both experienced a traumatic event the previous night and had spent the night in the same bed. If this were a TV drama, she should have agreed to him.
However, she still subconsciously shook her head.
She still hadn’t made up her mind.
Gu Wei just gave a faint smile, didn’t say anything, and left.
...
…
Su Meixi sat alone in a daze for a long time.
Then she opened WeChat.
It was bustling on WeChat, with all groups grabbing red envelopes and sending blessings. Though she joined late, she still managed to snatch many red envelopes from hospital leaders.
Her list also had many people sending her blessings, but they were all just copied and pasted.
Only Zhou Yuan was the exception; Zhou Yuan sent a voice message: “Sister Su, are you spending New Year in Feng City? I haven’t seen you for a long time, you haven’t even posted in Moments, I miss you.”
Su Meixi replied to her message: “Happy New Year, I’m not in Feng City, I’m at the medical aid location.”
Zhou Yuan replied soon after: “Where exactly? I’ll come visit you.”
Su Meixi knew she wouldn’t come, but she still sent her a location.
Indeed, upon seeing the location, Zhou Yuan exclaimed, “That’s so far! How did you end up so far away? When will you be back?”
Su Meixi replied, “Another year, I suppose.”
“That long?”
“Yeah.”
Shortly after, Zhou Yuan sent her a large red envelope containing 666.
Su Meixi smiled and sent back 888, but Zhou Yuan didn’t accept it.
After chatting with Zhou Yuan, she saw that someone wanted to add her as a friend.
One was Su Xiaowan, the daughter of Su Qiang and Xu Shuya.
The other was Xiao Zhuang, the son of Fang Xin.
Were these two just after New Year’s money?
Since Su Meixi had nothing else to do, she accepted the friend requests.
Sure enough, both Su Xiaowan and Xiao Zhuang immediately sent her messages: “Happy New Year, wishing you prosperity.”
Su Meixi gave each of them 88 yuan as a red envelope.
Su Xiaowan complained it was too little: “Sister, send a bigger one.”
Su Meixi felt annoyed and didn’t reply.
Xiao Zhuang outright cursed: “Are you treating me like a beggar? 88 yuan is not even enough for my game coins.”
Su Meixi tried to reply with an emoji, but her message wouldn’t send—she had been blocked by Xiao Zhuang!
She couldn’t help but snort coldly.
Since she was blocked, next year he wouldn’t get even 88 yuan.
Just as she was about to toss aside her phone, a New Year’s blessing from Gu Cheng arrived, along with a red envelope.
Since there was no limit on the first day of the new year, she figured it must be a big red envelope.
Thinking that she still hadn’t agreed to be Gu Wei’s wife again, she decided not to accept it.
…
After Gu Cheng sent out the red envelopes, he made a call to Gu Wei.
Gu Wei was still working on a report, but when he saw it was his brother’s call, he immediately answered.
“Brother, happy New Year.”
“I’m quite happy. I’m just not sure if you are,” Gu Cheng said.
On the first day of the New Year, Gu Cheng had given himself a day off, and Qiu Yurou was also in a good mood and wanted to host a party at the villa.
It had been over a decade since they last had a party at home.
Gu Wei looked at the various reports in front of him and said, “Work brings me joy.”
“As long as you’re happy. Did you eat dumplings?” Eating dumplings was a custom in Feng City during the New Year.
“I had some, at Ah Xi’s place.”
“How are things with her now?”
“The same as always. She won’t accept me.” Gu Wei asked Gu Cheng, “What do you think I should do?”
Gu Cheng thought for a moment and said, “Things that come too easily are generally not cherished. Take it slowly. The harder it is to obtain, the more you’ll value it later. I’ve got to go entertain the guests now.”
The call ended, and Gu Cheng picked out a tailored suit, put on a tie, and then headed to the garden.
Servants were bustling in the garden, setting up tables, wiping wine glasses, cutting fruit, and mixing drinks, among other things.
When Qiu Yurou saw Gu Cheng coming down, she called him over.
“Mom, happy New Year.”
Perhaps because of the holiday, Qiu Yurou seemed very kind today.
She also pulled out a large red envelope and handed it to Gu Cheng, “Happy New Year, this is for you.”
“Mom, I’m not a kid. Why give me a red envelope?”
“As long as you’re unmarried, you’re still a kid. Look, a new year has started, aren’t you turning 36? In another thirty years, many people would be grandfathers at the age of 36.”
Gu Cheng understood that Qiu Yurou was hinting at marriage.
“Mom, are you wanting a daughter-in-law now?”
“That’s right. For this gathering, I’ve invited quite a few prominent ladies from Feng City. Remember to pick and choose today, talk more with those you take a fancy to, otherwise if you keep delaying, the ladies will think you’re too old.”
Gu Cheng asked, “Actually, since you want a daughter-in-law, don’t you already have one? Didn’t Gu Wei get married?”
Mentioning Su Meixi made Qiu Yurou’s expression turn cold.
“The one who marries into our family must be someone who could be invited here today, nothing less.”
Qiu Yurou excitedly took out her phone, “Look, there are politicians’ daughters here today, as well as daughters of top lawyers, bank presidents, and chamber of commerce presidents. Pick someone for yourself, and for your brother too. Speaking of which, I think the chamber of commerce president’s daughter might suit him; I met this girl abroad before. She’s outgoing, which is perfect for your brother’s taciturn nature.”
Gu Cheng thought to himself: Is my brother really taciturn?
He could talk for days and nights if he met the right person.
But Qiu Yurou obviously didn’t understand.
Guests continued to arrive.
Zhou Yuan was among them.
She came with her father, Mr. Zhou. At the entrance, she said to Mr. Zhou, “Feels like there are lots of ladies here today, is this family trying to find a wife for their son?”
Mr. Zhou dotinguly said, “Once you’ve entered this gate, you shouldn’t speak carelessly. Understand? Even if they are looking for a wife for their son, it’s not your turn; you are still too young.”
“That’s for sure. Their eldest son is already 36, and I’m only 21, a whole 15 years older—almost old enough to be my father. And their second son is even less likely; he’s Sister Su’s ex-husband, I definitely mustn’t get involved.”
Mr. Zhou laughed again, “Good that you understand. Later on, just help Mrs. Gu out where needed, be sweet and quick on your feet, and make a good impression on Mrs. Gu.”
“Got it, Dad.”

After entering the villa’s courtyard, Mr. Zhou’s businessman demeanor immediately manifested; he chatted with the bank president and conversed with the chamber of commerce president.
Zhou Yuan, feeling bored alone, went looking for food.
As more guests arrived, Zhou Yuan didn’t know what to do. When she saw a group of prominent ladies chatting together, she wanted to join.
However, the ladies, seeing she was young and just a company president’s daughter, didn’t want to bother with her.
