Chapter 952: Cousin, You’re Overpraising Me

Editor: Henyee Translations

“Cousin!”

Gu Yang hadn’t seen Ruan Chu for a long time and was very surprised to see her.

“Aren’t you filming in Haicheng?”

Ruan Chu was now a popular actress in the entertainment industry. Her career was thriving, and her schedule was full. Gu Yang thought she wouldn’t be able to come personally.

Ruan Chu smiled and said, “Of course I had to come to congratulate our Yangyang personally. And Grandpa, he also asked me to bring you a gift.”

Gu Yang knew that although Old Master Ruan was arrogant, he had long treated her as his own granddaughter. She felt warmth in her heart. “Help me thank Grandpa.”

Ruan Chu said, “You can go back during the holidays and make a few pots of tea for him. He misses you.”

Standing beside Gu Yang, Ruan Chu suddenly asked, “Oh right, where’s Feng Jue?”

Feng Jue, who had been silently following Gu Yang but was secretly pushed to the side by Xiao Yize and Gu Jin, immediately stepped forward when someone mentioned him. He was very obedient and shy. “Cousin, I’m here.”

Ruan Chu narrowed her eyes at him. “It’s a pity you didn’t enter the entertainment industry.”

Even she had to admit that her acting skills were inferior. She had thought he was an obedient and harmless little lamb, but he turned out to be the big bad wolf that had taken her little cousin away without anyone knowing.

Feng Jue replied humbly, “Cousin, you’re flattering me. I only have good looks and know how to study hard with Sister. I can’t compare to a multi-talented and popular superstar like Cousin Ruan Chu.”

Ruan Chu, “…”

I’m mocking you for pretending. Who praised you for being good-looking? Don’t think you can fool me just by flattering me!

Principal Li, who was passing by again, was speechless. Damn it, why is someone always trying to poach Hua University students?

Sensing the faint tension between Ruan Chu and Feng Jue, Gu Yang quickly changed the topic and looked at Ji Linbai. “Did you come with Dr. Ji?”

Gu Yang knew that Ji Linbai liked Ruan Chu and was curious about their progress.

Mrs. Ji also scrutinized the two of them closely.

Ruan Chu, unaware of Mrs. Ji’s keen interest, said to Gu Yang helplessly, “I came with Sister Qiao Xuan. When she saw Lawyer Qiu, she left me behind. I happened to see Dr. Ji, so we chatted for a while.”

Gu Yang blinked. Wow, Qiao Xuan and Qiu Baizhou.

Mrs. Ji suddenly asked, “Bai, do you know Chuchu?”

Ji Linbai met Mrs. Ji’s sharp gaze and felt his thoughts were transparent. He nodded slightly and said, “I’m a fan of Ruan Chu.”

Mrs. Ji narrowed her eyes. “Boyfriend fan?”

Seeing Mrs. Ji’s serious expression, Ruan Chu was stunned and couldn’t help but imagine a scene—Mrs. Ji throwing a cheque at her and saying, “Ten million yuan, leave my son!”

Ji Linbai, who rarely stayed by Mrs. Ji’s side after becoming an adult, was a little surprised to hear her say “boyfriend fan.” However, when he met Ruan Chu’s slightly raised eyebrows, he panicked even more. Despite this, he looked extremely calm. “I’m Chuchu’s career fan.”

Mrs. Ji seemed to heave a sigh of relief and looked at Ji Linbai with a gentler gaze, as if she hadn’t been the one with the sharp and serious expression just moments ago.

Mrs. Ji said, “That’s good. Chuchu’s career is on the rise. Dating will affect her career. If you’re Chuchu’s boyfriend fan, there will be rumors, and it will impact her.”

Gu Yang: ?! Good lord, my cousin’s future mother-in-law is actually her career fan?! The kind that even her own son has to step aside?

Ji Linbai and Ruan Chu were dumbfounded.

Especially Ruan Chu.
