Chapter 151: The Blind Deadbeat Dad and the Money-Grubbing Brother
Chu Chen was kicked to the ground, his chest aching severely.
With a look of shock on his face, he looked up at Gu Yichen in disbelief: "You dare kick me!"
Gu Yichen actually dared to kick him!
For these past four years, Gu Yichen had always been servile, and even when bullied, he never dared to report it.
Today, he actually dared to lay a hand on him!
Chu Chen stared viciously at Gu Yichen and said: "If Grandma finds out, she will absolutely not let you off!"
Gu Yichen's long eyelashes trembled slightly; standing where he was and hearing these words, his body stiffened, his fingers clenching until they turned white.
Over these past four years, because Gu Yichen's leg was lame and his grades were far worse than before, Lin Jingshu had not been as attentive to him.
She favored Chu Chen more because he was currently more outstanding than Gu Yichen.
He was also a healthy grandson with no physical defects.
If Chu Chen reported him, regardless of whether it was Gu Yichen's fault, she would definitely punish him.
Seeing Gu Yichen frozen in place, Chu Chen sneered, but before he could gloat, a roar came from the side: "Watch my Mount Tai Pressing Down!"
With a "Bang," before Chu Chen could react, he saw Nangong Jin move his back foot, quickly charge toward Chu Chen, lift, jump, and press.
Nangong Jin's chubby little body rushed down onto him like a small mountain.
Chu Chen's face turned pale, his pupils dilated, and he looked at Nangong Jin in fear: "Don't, don't, don't come over here!"
Accompanied by a "Bang," Nangong Jin landed round and plump right on top of Chu Chen.
Chu Chen: "Ahhhhhhhh!"
Nangong Jin's round body pressed down on Chu Chen, his little bottom wiggling about, looking very disgusted: "Skinny as a monkey, your bones are hurting me."
He patted his bottom and stood up, looking at Chu Chen who had been sat unconscious by him, and patted his bottom with satisfaction.
Nangong Jin looked down at the unconscious Chu Chen and snorted coldly: "Truly, the old boy of the South Village bullies me for being weak and young, acting all passive-aggressive to diss me."
Gu Yichen's pitch-black eyes stared at Nangong Jin, looking again and again.
This guy is really fat.
Nangong Jin put his hands on his hips, his chubby little hands feeling around his waist, but he couldn't find his waist.
He immediately became even more annoyed and glared at Gu Yichen: "Hey, what kind of look is that?"
"This young master saved you!"
He actually dared to dislike him for being fat!
So what if he's fat!
Did he eat his family's rice?
Gu Yichen realized this guy's heart was truly smaller than his belly button.
Gu Yichen: "No, you're quite cute."
Nangong Jin glared with furrowed brows: "You dare call me ugly?"
Gu Yichen: "???" Is that what I meant?
Nangong Jin said with reason and confidence: "My uncle said, praising someone as cute is just calling them ugly because there are no other words to praise them with."
"You can only say the other person is cute!"
Gu Yichen: "………"
Gu Yichen's mouth twitched, and he looked at Nangong Jin, asking: "Why did you come here? This isn't a place you should be."
This is the Chu Family, and today is the engagement banquet for Gu Tingyan and Chu Sheng.
Nangong Jin appearing here is not a good thing; if the Chu Family members find out his identity, Nangong Jin won't be able to leave today.
Hearing Gu Yichen's questioning, Nangong Jin's eyes darted around guiltily.
He had snuck in by hiding in his mother's trunk.
He heard that his deadbeat dad was getting engaged to a bad woman today.
Before coming to China, his uncle had told him everything.
Nangong Jin snorted coldly: "What business is it of yours?"
He lifted his foot to leave, and Gu Yichen followed him, worried: "You should leave quickly."
"If they discover you, it won't be a good thing."
Nangong Jin rolled his eyes: "As if I'm afraid of them."
This guy's tone was outrageously arrogant.
Gu Yichen turned his head and stared at him for a few moments; Nangong Jin's little face was full of wild and untamed pride, a child raised in the palm of someone's hand.
Between the little guy's brows and all over his face was nothing but confidence and pride.
At a glance, he was a little tyrant spoiled by his family, fearing neither heaven nor earth.
Gu Yichen's gaze turned dim, a bit of envy hidden in his eyes.
Nangong Jin turned around a few times but couldn't find his way out, so he turned to look at Gu Yichen: "How do I get to the engagement hall?"
Gu Yichen: "Why are you going there?"
Nangong Jin snorted coldly: "To see my blind deadbeat dad and my money-grubbing brother."
Money-grubbing Gu Yichen: "………"
Nangong Jin looked at Gu Yichen and realized he still didn't know his name, so he asked: "By the way, what is your name?"
The money-grubbing Gu Yichen spoke without changing his expression: "Qin Yi."
Hearing that his surname was Qin, Nangong Jin suddenly became a bit more enthusiastic: "Oh, you have the same surname as my mother!"
"What a coincidence!"
Nangong Jin had never met Gu Yichen, and his appearance had never been publicly reported in the media.
Gu Tingyan had managed to find out about Nangong Jin, but he did not know what his own brother looked like.
For some reason, seeing that Qin Yi had a limp, Nangong Jin suddenly felt a bit of pity and heartache.
Although the little fellow was used to being arrogant and overbearing, at heart, he was still a kind-hearted child.
Overbearing was his camouflage; being a chatterbox was his true nature.
Gu Yichen's lips twitched: "Mm."
He led Nangong Jin toward the main hall and instructed: "There are many bad people here; you cannot reveal your true identity."
Nangong Jin nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "Mm-hmm."
The engagement banquet officially began.
In the Chu Family's main hall, men were in suits and leather shoes, while women wore exquisite makeup and high-fashion evening gowns, clinking glasses with one another.
The lights suddenly dimmed and shone onto the podium, and the banquet hall instantly fell silent.
Chu Xuanming went up to the stage, took the microphone, and said with a smile: "Welcome everyone to my daughter's engagement banquet with the Crown Prince of the Gu Family."
Thunderous applause suddenly erupted in the banquet hall.
Gu Yichen brought Nangong Jin into the banquet hall, and as soon as they entered, they ran into Chu Xuanming giving his speech.
There were many people in the banquet hall; Gu Yichen was afraid that Nangong Jin would get lost, so he turned his head to look back and froze.
"Stay close to me; there will be a lot of people later."
At some point, Nangong Jin had followed behind him with a pile of delicious food in his arms; he stuffed a piece of cake into his mouth with his chubby little hand and said with his mouth full: "Since we're already here."
"It would be a waste not to eat."
"I'm going to eat them into bankruptcy!"
Gu Yichen: "........."
Gu Yichen's mouth twitched slightly as he turned back to take his hand and walk inside.
Chu Xuanming gave a passionate speech and finally said: "I now invite the couple to take the stage."
Chu Sheng was wearing a high-fashion red gown, standing off the stage, turning her head to look at the incomparably handsome man beside her, her heart excited to the extreme.
This moment she had dreamed of had finally arrived.
Nangong Jin finished the cake and had it smeared all over his mouth; he looked left and right, saw that red gown, lowered his gaze, and slowly moved toward it.
The little fellow used his chubby little hand to grab the red dress and began to wipe his mouth, messily wiping his own dirty little hands.
