Jian Qiao was forced to raise her head and support the sides of the wheelchair with her hands.

The young man held the back of her neck with one hand and took her into his arms.

Jian Qiao was worried about his legs and was so stunned that she didn't dare to sit on them, but when he pulled her, she fell directly into his arms and sat firmly on his legs.

She was so frightened that she immediately pushed him away to check his injuries, but she was hugged tightly by him and could not move.

"Your legs...well..."

The young man was both bold and cautious, and there was no trace of pain on his face. Jian Qiao felt a little relieved, but she was worried that he was holding on.

When he finally let her go, she hurried to check on his injuries, but she only heard a chuckle from the man.

"Sister, I am not a porcelain doll."

Jian Qiao refused to listen and insisted on opening his trouser legs. She felt relieved when she saw that there was no sign of swelling or purple.

But she still glared at him angrily, as if blaming him for not taking care of her body.

The young man accepted it obediently and did not dare to talk back.

After a while, there was a knock on the door, and it was the servant who came to ask them to go down for dinner.

Jian Qiao looked out the window and realized that it was already dark.

She was about to help him out, then thought about it, then went back and closed the cabinet door.

This used to be his secret, but from today on, it became the secret of both of them.

A flash of emotion flashed in the young man's eyes. He didn't expect that not only did she not blame him or be afraid of him, but she was also willing to treasure this secret with him.

When she came over, he held her hand tightly and followed her downstairs.

Grandpa Gu was already standing under the stairs at this time. Seeing them holding hands and looking very affectionate, he felt happy for them from the bottom of his heart.

"Qiaoqiao, come here and try your aunt's craftsmanship!"

He greeted her loudly, with a smile on his old face.

Jian Qiao responded with a smile and followed them to the restaurant.

Today's dinner looks like it was carefully prepared. There are many styles, and most of them are her favorites.

She glanced at Gu's mother and saw that she was also looking at her.

She was about to call someone, but she suddenly stood up.

"Qiaoqiao, auntie did a lot of wrong things in the past, and she was also confused. Don't blame auntie, I will change it in the future."

Her sincere words made it impossible for Jian Qiao to express even the slightest complaint.

It is true that she has always been partial to Gu Xingzhou, but she has always been considerate of her.

She picked up the cup in front of her and clinked it with her.

"Auntie, I understand. I see all the good things you do to me. When Yanchuan and I get married, we will be a real family. I am still young and I have a lot to learn from you. I hope you don’t think I’m stupid.”

Mother Gu didn't seem to expect her attitude to be so respectful, and she was surprised and happy for a moment.

"That's for sure. I've long regarded you as half a daughter. From now on, when we truly become a family, I will treat you with all my heart!"

She thought she would be dissatisfied with her because of what happened today, but now it seems that she is overthinking it.

She was very happy at the moment, and thinking about what Gu's father said to her, she naturally wanted to get closer to her.

Seeing that she had finished the wine in the glass, she also drank it in one gulp, and then a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

At the dinner table, Grandpa Gu kept picking up dishes for Jian Qiao, but Mother Gu couldn't even find a chance to show off. She turned her eyes and saw Gu Yanchuan next to Jian Qiao.

He is always quiet and does not fight, so he is often ignored.

She stood up and put a prawn into his bowl, followed by a few pieces of braised pork.

"You're too skinny, you'd better eat more meat." As she said that, she put in a lot of vegetables one after another. The boy raised his head to look at her and saw a nervous look on her face.

Such a cautious and flattering expression really shouldn't appear on her face.

It's just that he finally said "hmm" without letting her smile completely fall to the ground.

When the old man saw this scene from a distance, he felt happy in his heart, but he also knew that the gap between mother and son could not be eliminated so easily.

But he did not open his mouth to persuade him to make peace, but turned to look at Jian Qiao again.

"Qiaoqiao, your grandfather and I have discussed it. After the new year, you go to get the certificate first, and then go to the master to find a good date to hold the wedding. What do you think?"

Jian Qiao always listened to her grandfather on such matters, so she nodded readily.

"I listen to my two grandfathers."

The old man smiled brightly and did not forget to tease her, "You will have to change your tune when you get married. Why don't you get used to it first?"

Jian Qiao was caught off guard. She didn't expect that he would suddenly suggest this. She raised her head and was about to squeeze out the two titles from her throat with difficulty, when Gu's father not far away came out to smooth things over.

"Dad, why are you still taking advantage of Qiao Qiao at your age? If you say you will change your confession after marriage, then your aunt and I will be sure to prepare enough for the change!"

Gu's mother also hurriedly helped, "That's right, we will never wrong you, and we will definitely let you marry happily!"

Jian Qiao blushed and nodded.

Grandpa Gu didn't have any embarrassment on his face at this time, he just gave Father and Mother Gu a look of satisfaction.

They immediately understood that he was doing this on purpose and was giving them a chance to show off.

Because they were so enthusiastic, Jian Qiao was overwhelmed as expected.

She originally wanted to push Gu Yanchuan for a walk in the yard, but as soon as she walked out of the restaurant, she was pulled over by Gu's mother.

She pulled her aside with a mysterious look on her face, then took out a bracelet from her pocket and put it on her hand.

It was a jade bracelet of excellent quality. It was completely translucent and looked very valuable.

She looked puzzled, but saw Gu's mother patting the back of her hand with a look of relief.

"This was given to me by Yanchuan's grandma, and it was passed down to my future daughter-in-law. It has been passed down for several generations, and now it's time to hand it over to you."

Jian Qiao looked at her wrist, and it was indeed empty.

She didn't expect that the bracelet representing inheritance would be given to her so early.

She didn't refuse, just smiled and thanked him.

"Thank you, auntie, the bracelet is very beautiful."

Gu's mother's face was filled with a happy smile, "As long as you and Yanchuan are fine, I will be satisfied."

After saying that, she looked behind her and saw Gu Yanchuan following her at some point.

She smiled knowingly and just let go of her hand.

"Go, go to him."

Jian Qiao turned around and saw the young man not far away. She walked towards him with a face full of joy and showed him the jade bracelet on her hand.

The young man raised his head and looked at Gu's mother behind her, and saw her giving him a loving smile for the first time.

At that moment, a burst of complicated emotions arose in his heart, but in the end he didn't say anything and left with Jian Qiao.

On the way back, Jian Qiao was still looking at the bracelet carefully.

From the moment she put on this bracelet, she seemed to have an extra identity on her body. She didn't feel it was anything before, but now her heart was slightly disturbed.

Suddenly, she thought of something and looked at the person next to her curiously.

"Tell me, when my aunt gave me this only bracelet that represents inheritance, does it mean that she has really given up on Gu Xingzhou?" (End of Chapter)
