CHAPTER 106: CHAPTER 106: NO WONDER YOU CAN’T FIND A WIFE BEING SO STINGY!

Half a month later, things gradually settled down. Gu Moming could walk on his own with crutches, and the auto repair shop had also been open for almost a month, with business getting better and better.

Now, because Gu Moming couldn’t come to the shop often, one of his friends managed it. Gu Qimiao would visit whenever she had time, and the workers in the shop thought she was the boss’s wife.

At the beginning of May, the weather was warming up, and Shen Yanchen said he would pick her up after work.

After receiving his call, Gu Qimiao bounced out of the gallery and happened to run into Fang Shaobei: "Heading home?"

"Yeah! I’m working overtime for free! Teacher Fang, you should give me a raise!"

Fang Shaobei rolled his eyes at her and followed her downstairs: "Free overtime for sleeping? And you want a raise? I haven’t even mentioned the electricity you’re wasting."

"Psh! Teacher Fang, no wonder you can’t find a wife being so stingy!"

Fang Shaobei chuckled and followed her out of the gallery, then saw the parked Ghost across the street.

Knowing they lived together and that it wasn’t Shen Yanchen’s first time picking her up, he wasn’t surprised. He followed Gu Qimiao over and greeted him: "Chen."

He got out of the car, nodded at him as a greeting, and then opened the passenger door, helping Gu Qimiao in.

Seeing this, Fang Shaobei asked: "You’re heading back today too, right? Your grandma also invited me over, how about giving me a ride?"

Shen Yanchen walked around, bent into the car, locked the door, and then rolled down the window to say to Fang Shaobei: "Not on the way."

Fang Shaobei smiled silently, cursing him for being stingy in his mind.

Not on the way, even though they were clearly going to the same place.

Ignoring years of friendship, he drove off with his girl in priority.

Fang Shaobei had no choice but to turn to get in his own car, then headed in the same direction.

Gu Qimiao heard what Fang Shaobei just said and asked: "Where are we going?"

"We’re picking up Xiaoxiao first."

The car arrived at the art academy, and Xiaoxiao was waiting by the gate. She didn’t expect to see Gu Qimiao in the car and got excited as she got in: "Gigi! Are you coming with us?"

Gu Qimiao was stunned. Going back? But where?

Xiaoxiao laughed to herself and said: "My grandma will be so happy to see you!"

Gu Qimiao was immediately dumbfounded. Going back to see his grandma again? Would Lu Qianwen be there too?

Xiaoxiao snickered to herself; Gigi was the first girl her big brother brought home to meet the parents. This sister-in-law position was as good as set.

While Gu Qimiao was fretting whether she should find an excuse to get out of the car, they arrived at an unfamiliar place.

"Big brother, since when do you wear scarves?" Xiaoxiao suddenly asked. Gu Qimiao turned and saw that he was wearing the scarf she had given him, feeling instantly comforted. She had thought he might not like it.

Shen Yanchen didn’t respond, so Xiaoxiao teased: "It’s been getting warmer, and I’ve stopped wearing mine. How come you’re more afraid of the cold than me?"

"Buzz buzz——" He answered the phone, putting it on speaker since he was driving.

It was his grandmother on the other end: "Da Chen, are you there yet? We’re just waiting for you all!"

"Almost there."

"Did you bring that girl back? Your parents are waiting to see her!"

Gu Qimiao’s eyes widened. The girl in question... who could it be? She was the only outsider in the car...

Next to her, he gave a slight "Mm."

"Is Xiaoxiao there?"

Shen Yanchen handed the phone to the back seat to Xiaoxiao, who then began chatting on the phone.

...

Gu Qimiao initially thought it was just a visit to see his grandmother, but upon arrival, she discovered it wasn’t that simple.
