Chapter 119 - 92: Why is your girlfriend not the same person you showed me?



Xu Hong, although always urging Gu Heng to find himself a daughter-in-law...

but when the "daughter-in-law" actually appeared before her, she panicked... Stay tuned to empire

She opened her mouth and then closed it, struggling for a long time without saying a word, and could only cast a pleading look towards Gu Heng...

Gu Heng didn’t know why Lin Ran was being so cooperative, but wasn’t the reason he invited her initially to pretend to be his girlfriend?

Now he didn’t need to spend any effort or promise any benefits to willingly play this role, so he felt no need to worry...

With a shameless smile, he said, "Mom, this is my girlfriend, Lin Ran."

Then he turned to Lin Ran and introduced, "This is my dad."

"This is my uncle and aunt, they’re also Xinran’s parents."

At this moment, Lin Ran didn’t put on any airs of the high-ranking corporate executive, and after hearing Gu Heng’s introduction, she greeted everyone with a big smile...

"Eh, eh, eh, okay, okay, okay!" Nôv(el)B\\jnn

After adapting for a while, Xu Hong also put on a smile and excitedly responded to Lin Ran.

"Don’t just stand in the doorway, come on, come in, let’s sit in the house!"

After speaking, Xu Hong was about to affectionately take Lin Ran’s hand and lead her inside the house...

But just as she reached out halfway, she saw Lin Ran’s delicately manicured hand, her skin as fair and flawless as a baby’s... she then looked at her own hands, rough and lined with wrinkles and callouses from years of hard work, and awkwardly withdrew her hand...

Lin Ran noticed Xu Hong’s gesture, and with a laugh, she swung her purse onto Gu Heng’s body, then took the initiative to take Xu Hong’s hand, pulling her closer, "Xinran and I have been waiting at the door for almost half an hour, we are so tired."

Seeing this scene, Gu Heng’s fondness for Lin Ran grew even more...

On hearing this, Gu Heng’s aunt hurriedly scolded Gu Xinran, "That darn girl, she didn’t tell us who she was picking up today! If we had known it was Xiaoheng’s girlfriend, we wouldn’t have gone to that village meeting!"

Gu Xinran: "???"

Seeing a big pot being dumped right on her head, Gu Xinran felt bitter but couldn’t express it...

She was originally going to call Gu Heng directly, but Lin Ran wanted to stroll around the village, and she ended up accompanying her for half an hour...

Now it became her fault?

But upon seeing Lin Ran’s strikingly beautiful profile, Gu Xinran could only silently sigh in her heart...

A higher official three grades up could crush a person to death, let alone the gap between herself, an intern, and Lin Ran, a deputy director...

Taking the blame unconditionally for superiors, isn’t that the first rule of corporate life...

....

....

After a brief chat, the group cheerfully headed towards the old house.

Gu Xinran also forgot the pain of being blamed and cheerfully followed everyone...

Just as she was about to enter the house, a large hand grabbed the back of her neck, pulling her aside.

Seeing the eyes of her parents and uncle and aunt on them, Gu Heng laughed it off, "You guys go ahead and sit, Xinran and I need to talk for a bit."

"Hurry up and come in! What can’t you discuss later? Leaving your girlfriend alone? That’s so thoughtless!"

Listening to Xu Hong’s scolding, Lin Ran, although not understanding the dialect, could roughly guess what was said and portrayed herself as understanding and obedient, "Auntie, it’s fine, they probably just have some private things to discuss, I’ll stay with you."

Seeing Lin Ran being so understanding, Xu Hong couldn’t help but smile even bigger...

Then, without caring about the siblings, she led Lin Ran to the sofa.

After seeing his parents go inside, Gu Heng then turned his gaze to Gu Xinran, looking at her critically, "Speak up."

Gu Xinran shrank back, feigning confusion, "Speak... speak about what?"

"What do you think? Why would Lin Ran suddenly come over?"

"Didn’t you invite her over when we ate together a couple of days ago... why are you asking me..."

Gu Heng tightened his hold on the back of her neck and continued, "Yes, I did invite her, but I want to know how she managed to come over without making a sound?"

"Ouch, ouch, ouch!"

Struggling for a while but unable to escape Gu Heng’s grip, Gu Xinran could only look up at him with big, pleading eyes... trying to appeal to his familial feelings...

Unable to charm her way out, Gu Xinran finally hung her head, fidgeting with her fingers, and began explaining...

"Yesterday afternoon someone added me on WeChat, and I accepted, but I didn’t expect it was Director Lin..."

Gu Heng nodded, as the company’s director, getting an intern’s contact information would indeed be simple.

"Continue."

"After Director Lin added me, she directly asked me to send her my home location."

"And you agreed?"

On hearing this, Gu Xinran’s eyes widened, taking on a righteous air, "How could that be? Am I that kind of person? I sternly refused her! And I even lectured her severely about the importance of the privacy of home addresses!"

Gu Heng, hearing this, didn’t say anything, just stared down at her sternly...

After being watched by Gu Heng for several seconds, Gu Xinran weakly added, "Okay, fine, I sent it to her..."

"Then why didn’t you tell me she was coming today?"

"I was going to tell you!!" she started to say, but then her tone softened, "But Director Lin told me not to tell you... saying that once she arrived, you’d figure it out yourself...

Foster father, you know, I’m just an ordinary intern...
