Chapter 105 - Let Us Exchange The Rings!

Both Su Xi as well as Shi Yu were taken aback by her statement. They never thought Grandmother Gu will speak so bluntly in front of them. Even though she knows Shi Yu for a long period, but they never had any good relationships to speak about.

Su Xi felt this woman was complicated. There was a stern face, but along with a smile which was not at all gentle. It was a moking one!

She does not know why but it was evident that this lady was interested in humiliating her. 

Even though she was staring at Gu Yan intensely, this can not be the sole reason for her to pick a fight with Su Xi in such a large commotion? there were so many people but how did Su Xi catch the eyes of this famous, and hidden lady?

"I never said that, Elder Madam Gu. You are surely mistaken. I just pointed at the woman you have chosen." Su Xi hoped she answered correctly and respectably. But she made sure not to upset her in any manner. Who knows what happens in the future and at some moment, she needs her help also?

"But the woman you are pointing finger at is going to be my grand-daughter in law. How can I let anyone lift a finger on her?" Elder Madam Gu kept her eyes straight on Su Xi's face. It was if she was trying to see through her soul.

Although she knew that whatever Su Xi is saying is true. Lin Jua was not a good choice to be the daughter in law of the Gu family. But they never intended to make her one. Soon, many things will change. This does not give Su Xi the right to say anything against Lin Jua.

But Su Xi was also not a raw player who can be played through other's hands. She kept her composure ad well as her calmness with a warm smile on her face. Anyway, her heart was not as warm as her smile. 

"Elder Madam Gu, I'm least interested in answering your investigative questions. We are in a party. It is your grandson's engagement. You should be happy." 

"Then why are you not happy? I can clearly see a frown on your face. After all, many guests here are enjoying themselves." Grandmother Gu has really had a sharp tongue. It can cut one's confidence just in few seconds. Su Xi was even shocked at how she was able to maintain such confidence till now!?

Maybe because she had seen Gu Yan's same nature for the last twenty-one years. Now, she understood from where he got such an attitude.

Shi Yu can feel tension more building up. He wanted to avoid their confrontation but here, but he never expected Madam Gu will come to him and will talk to Su Xi. At this party, there are so many celebrities and businessmen. Then why she suddenly came and talked to Su Xi!?!

Did she know who Su Xi actually is!?

"I think that is none of your concern, Elder Madam Gu. My feelings, my sadness, my happiness does not make cost you something, right?" Su Xi was now getting irritated. this was the only option to shut her up, speak rudely and bluntly!

But hearing this, Grandmother Gu started laughing. She was laughing when Su Xi just challenged and rudely talked to her!

"I think someone is calling us, Ms. Su. We shall take your leave, Elder Madam Gu." Saying this, he dragged Su Xi to someone else by her arm. Su Xi glanced at the lady once and then gracefully turned around and walked to where Shi Yu took her.

Seeing her back, Elder Madam Gu felt her eyes turned cold. The smile was just cruel and clever. Her aura was no longer gentle or strict but an unspeakable one. A dangerous feeling!

'I will not let you come back into my grandson's life and disturb it like before. Remember, Su Xi.' Grandmother knew how to handle these thongs, but she hopes nothing goes out of her hands.

Shi Yu brought her to the food counter. She did not have any drink too, but her eyes were still fixed on Gu Yan. She can see he was not at all distracted by her sudden and intense gaze.

Was he so much lost in that scene and celebrating his engagement?! He hadn't noticed her even once. This was too much! It is not like he is getting married to any princess.

Though she knew nothing will change her heart, but her heat was just hurting too much. What else she can say now?

But unknown to her, Gu Yan's eyes never left hers. All the time she talked to Elder Madam Gu and when Shi Yu even touched her arm, he saw everything. But he kept it to himself and met all the guests coming to congratulate him.

This was how things go. He can't just go and step in them and say, 'do not talk to Su Xi.' Right?

He did not know why Shi Yu brought here her. All those things that happened in the room were not leaving his mind. All he can say was she occupied his brain all the time. 

Was this love? NO! But that look in her eyes made him lose control of his. 

Lin Jua noticed he was not concentrating on the engagement and guest. She had dressed up perfectly for him to notice her. But from the start, he has not complimented her at once. Even at this age, she looked younger. Today's star of the event was none other than Lin Jua. But what was the effect of it if Gu Yan does not see her?

She had a fear inside her, that this engagement will not happen. But all was happening according to her plan. This was all she wanted. But a slight fear is still there which was stopping her from being happy.

Lin Jua turned towards him and held his arm affectionately.

"Gu Yan, let us now exchange the rings."
