Chapter 712: 707. The Brother-in-Law Has Arrived (Please Subscribe and Vote)
In the morning, Zhang Ran's family got up early, then washed up and got dressed.
The four little ones were the most enthusiastic.
Originally, Zhang Ran had only planned to take Taotao and Susu along, since Yu Qingyu was their great-aunt after all.
But Auston and Arthur made a fuss about wanting to go play, and Susu and the others all looked at Zhang Ran with eager eyes, leaving Zhang Ran with no other choice.
In the end, he could only agree.
Since they were going, Zhang Ran couldn't be bothered to say much more and simply took everyone along; Lin Mei wanted to go too.
"Mom, who is Great-Aunt?" Taotao asked, following the good habit of asking about things he didn't understand.
The four little ones sitting on the plane were all full of curiosity; they didn't understand these relationships either.
It is worth mentioning that they were flying on Taylor's private jet; Taylor had just come to see Zhang Ran yesterday, learned about this matter, and decided to go over to offer his blessings, as Yu Qingyu had once been his employee.
"Great-Aunt is your grandmother's younger sister," Liu Lu said in a low voice.
"But I've never seen..." Taotao was about to speak loudly, but was quickly silenced by Liu Lu covering his mouth, who then promptly changed the subject.
At home, everyone rarely mentioned Yu Qingwan, all to keep Zhang Ran from recalling the past and feeling sad and distressed.
The little one's train of thought was easily diverted, and his attention was shifted in an instant.
Yu Qingyu was feeling a bit nervous and excited at this moment, though it couldn't be seen from her expression.
Gu Xinyi helped out while exclaiming, "Sister-in-law, you look so beautiful today!"
At this moment, Yu Qingyu was dressed in a bright red wedding gown, and with her exquisite makeup, although she was a bit older, she was full of a mature charm.
"Thank you," Yu Qingyu said with a light smile.
Seeing that Yu Qingyu didn't seem particularly happy, Gu Xinyi thought for a moment and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry too much. My parents will be fine after some time passes, and they are just sharp-tongued but soft-hearted.
Besides, they dote on my brother very much, and since my brother is the only heir in the family, nothing will go wrong.
Most importantly, don't you have me here? Sister-in-law, believe in me."
Gu Xinyi actually knew what Yu Qingyu was worried about; after all, Yu Qingyu's age wasn't much different from her mother's.
But Gu Xinyi didn't find such a thing surprising or unacceptable, otherwise she wouldn't have helped keep it from her parents.
Gu Xinyi truly liked Yu Qingyu, and if Yu Qingyu could become her sister-in-law, she would be overjoyed.
Furthermore, this was the first time Gu Xinyi had seen her brother like someone so much; that kind of love from the bottom of his heart could not be hidden.
The relationship between the two siblings was very good, so Gu Xinyi also hoped her brother could be happy.
"Mm, I know, I'll be fine," Yu Qingyu said, taking a deep breath.
In fact, Yu Qingyu saw things very clearly; after all, having experienced so many things, she couldn't afford not to.
Now, she just wanted to live for herself.
Just two days ago, she had told Gu Rui that she could be patient in front of Gu Rui's parents, but she would never be patient without limits; once they exceeded her tolerance, she would not hold back.
Gu Rui had also promised that such a thing would absolutely not happen, and that he would handle everything.
At this time, there were already many people at the wedding venue, all friends of Yu Qingyu and Gu Rui; there were no relatives or family members.
These people were chatting very lively, as most of them were from the same circle.
Many people felt very surprised and curious about the situation between Gu Rui and Yu Qingyu.
Because the age gap between the two was very large, and it was Gu Rui who had taken the initiative to pursue Yu Qingyu, which made the topic even more lively.
However, because they were all friends, the vast majority came with the intention of offering blessings.
Of course, there were also those who did not have such a mindset, such as Liu Ru.
Liu Ru could be considered Gu Rui's childhood sweetheart, though one could only say "considered."
Because they had been classmates from elementary school, middle school, high school, and even university.
From middle school, Liu Ru had started to like Gu Rui a little, and by high school, that liking had been confirmed.
Gu Rui was indeed a very high-quality male: handsome, good at his studies, and although his personality was cold, he was sincere to others.
Plus, his family background was quite good; not to mention being extremely wealthy, but his family ran a real estate company, and if nothing else, they should have assets in the hundreds of millions.
Of course, many girls liked such a man, but Gu Rui had never taken an interest in anyone.
Moreover, Gu Rui did not have the traits of a "scumbag"; if he didn't like someone, he didn't like them, and he never intentionally led anyone on.
So, it must be said that a person like Gu Rui was truly the dream man for many girls!
In university, Gu Rui came to the United States to study abroad, and Liu Ru followed him here.
Gu Rui knew Liu Ru's intentions, but just like with other girls, Gu Rui had clearly stated that they were not a good match.
Liu Ru had indeed been heartbroken for a period of time, but seeing that Gu Rui had no intention of being with other girls either, she actually still held some expectations in her heart.
Gu Rui thought that Liu Ru had figured things out, and although Liu Ru acted the same as before afterward, she never behaved like she had in the past.
Plus, Liu Ru's circle and Gu Rui's circle were basically overlapping, so Liu Ru was also invited to this wedding.
Liu Ru looked at the wedding venue, her eyes showing some unnaturalness, but she quickly became determined again.
She had already tipped off Gu Rui's parents, and today, Gu Rui's parents would rush over to stop this wedding.
As for Yu Qingyu, to be honest, Liu Ru's impression of her was actually quite good, but regarding this matter, Liu Ru was still unwilling to give up so easily.
And Yu Qingyu's age was indeed quite old; in Liu Ru's view, this was not a suitable partner for Gu Rui.
After Zhang Ran and the others got off the plane, they started heading over and arrived at the venue at a little past ten o'clock.
"Who are you?" the person helping to greet guests at the entrance asked upon seeing Zhang Ran and his group.
Zhang Ran smiled and said, "We are the family of the bride, Yu Qingyu."
"Sister Yu's family?" The person was a bit stunned; wasn't it said that neither side's family was being invited?
What was going on here?
"Please wait a moment, let me ask about the situation. I am truly sorry," the person said cautiously.
He was a friend of Yu Qingyu, and for such a thoughtful big sister like Yu Qingyu, he also hoped she could be happy.
Zhang Ran nodded and said, "That's fine, just tell Yu Qingyu that his brother-in-law is here."
"Brother-in-law?" The person was stunned once again; how old are you, anyway?
Could it be the same as Gu Rui?
