Transmigrating Into A Female Side Character As A Prodigal Doctor-Chapter 28

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

To Yan Xi, this was not only a family dinner but also her first time meeting her husband’s banquet, so she was a little nervous.

Gu Shen noticed it and said softly, “Don’t worry. You don’t have to care about what they say. I’ll handle it.”

There was a reason why Gu Shen said that. The first time she attended the family banquet, the Host was mocked by her aunties.

Strangely enough, none of the memories she received from the Host was a happy memory.

“I’m not worried.” Yan Xi took a deep breath. “Because you’re here.”

…

The banquet had yet to begin and the people who had already arrived were chatting in the main hall. Amongst them were Old Master Gu’s eldest son and eldest daughter, Gu Ling.

The moment Gu Shen entered, many people looked over.

Gu Ling also shot him a look, but she quickly retracted her gaze and smiled.

“Shen is here. Since it’s not convenient for you to move around, you don’t have to bother yourself to come all the way here.”

No one knew if the last part of what she said was well-intentioned or not.

Gu An frowned and chided her in a low voice, “Auntie, don’t say that about Fourth Brother!”

Gu Ling rolled her eyes and tried to smooth things over.

“Auntie was so excited to see you just now so I said something inappropriate. You’re definitely welcomed here. What have you been busy with recently?”

Gu Shen’s tone was cold. “Nothing. Just some company matters.”

“Small matters, right?” Gu Lingzhi said sarcastically as she brushed her hair.

“You’re already a grown man, yet you only know how to talk about small businesses that don’t hurt. Some time ago, your younger cousin managed to negotiate a big business independently. As his older brother, you can’t let him upstage you. If you want, you can go and seek advice from him.” 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m

“Younger brother is indeed capable.”

Gu Shen was already used to this kind of scene, but Yan Xi was furious. The hand holding the wheelchair suddenly tightened, and her fingertips turned white.

Gu Shen noticed this and gently patted Yan Xi’s hand.

Naturally, Gu Ling noticed her fury as well. Her sight moved slowly to Yan Xi.

She could put up with it when Gu Shen talked back to her, but she could not possibly put up with it when such an insignificant person like Yan Xi wanted to talk back to her.

“Yan Xi is here too. I heard that you were injured a while ago. Are you feeling better now?”

“I’m better. Thank you for your concern, Auntie.”

Gu Ling laughed, “I can tell you’re feeling better. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have caused such a ruckus at the Yan Clan’s banquet. I don’t know how your mood is today, but you’d better not cause any trouble here.” 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m

If it was Yan Xi in the past, she would have definitely lost control of herself and started cursing at her madly. But now, she was calm and responded with a graceful smile.

“Auntie, you must be joking. Speaking of which, I learned that from you. I remember that back then you went to the Lin family’s banquet and caused a huge ruckus, forcing him to marry you.”

She covered her mouth and continued, giggling, “Luckily, that person from the Lin family isn’t here today. Otherwise, the entire Gu family would be thrown into chaos by you.”

Gu An burst out laughing as he listened from the side.

“Yan Xi, is what you said true? Why don’t I know about it?” Gu An asked. She didn’t care that Gu Ling was actually there as well.

“Of course it’s true.” Gu An only found out about this matter a few years later. The Miss Lin who competed with her always used this to belittle her.

She then looked at Gu Ling with an innocent expression, “Auntie, don’t be angry.. I was just joking with you.”
