Chapter 629: Meng Zhi Seems Off

After returning home that evening, Gu Dai and Su Ting were met with intense, affectionate stares.

At the moment of registering their marriage, Gu Dai had been composed, but now, under the watchful eyes of her family, she blushed and shyly lowered her gaze. “Grandma, Mom, Dad, please don’t look at us like that…”

Her family chuckled reassuringly, “Alright, alright, we’ll be more discreet.”

Gazing at Gu Dai and Su Ting with a gentle affection, one family member softly asked, “When are you planning to hold the wedding?”

Su Ting immediately assured, “I’ll start preparing right away!”

Gu Dai pursed her lips slightly.

Noticing the change in Gu Dai’s expression, Su Ting asked quietly, “What’s wrong, Daidai?”

Gu Dai’s parents also turned to look at her, awaiting her response.

Thinking of her commitments at work, Gu Dai explained, “I have some collaborations to discuss in the coming period. I won’t have time to prepare or attend the wedding.”

Hearing this, the tension eased. “Oh, that’s all? Daidai, don’t worry, your parents are here. They can handle it temporarily,” they reassured her gently.

Gu Dai’s father nodded, “Yes, we can manage it. Though we haven’t dealt with the business in three years, we haven’t forgotten what we know. Plus, we’ve been studying the market at home, so you can leave it to us with peace of mind.”

Gu Dai, still concerned, responded, “Mom, Dad, you should rest more. Suddenly working might be too much for you…”

Her mother laughed, “Daidai, don’t worry about us. We know our limits and will rest if we feel unwell. Besides, isn’t Uncle Lin there to help us at the company?”

Finally, Gu Dai nodded, not forgetting to remind them, “If you feel unwell, don’t push yourselves.”

Her parents assured her repeatedly, and Gu Dai’s worries slowly subsided.

Her phone chimed with a message from Shi Nuan.

Shi Nuan: Daidai, has Meng Zhi been upset by something? He seems really off today.

Gu Dai blinked, a flicker of confusion in her eyes.

Gu Dai: I’m not sure, he seemed fine when I saw him today. What did he do?

Shi Nuan: He’s been saying some strange things. I got to go, Meng Zhi is coming over.

Seeing Gu Dai’s puzzled look, Su Ting leaned over and asked, “What’s wrong, Daidai?”

Unsure of how to describe the situation, Gu Dai handed her phone to Su Ting to read the chat, then said, “What could have upset my brother?”

Su Ting thought for a moment before suggesting, “Could it be because of Shi Nuan’s heartbreak back then?”

Gu Dai nodded, feeling it might be possible, and quickly relayed her thoughts to Shi Nuan. As she exited their chat, she accidentally opened a message from Song Ling.

Song Ling: I heard you got married.

Su Ting, who had just read the chat with Shi Nuan, inadvertently saw the message.

Startled, Su Ting quickly averted his gaze, pretending not to have seen it.

Gu Dai noticed his reaction and sighed lightly, handing her phone to him, “I’ve collaborated with Song Ling on a project, that’s why I still have his number, but we don’t really interact otherwise. You can look.”

Su Ting handed the phone back to her, “Daidai, I trust you.”

Gu Dai paused, then softly said, “I like you, and only you.”

Su Ting’s eyes gleamed as he smiled back, “Me too.”

Su Ting then drew Gu Dai into his arms, the crisp scent of him filling her senses. She took a deep breath and murmured, “Tonight is supposed to be our wedding night, isn’t it?”

As Gu Dai spoke, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became charged with intimacy, their previous interrupted kiss lingering in their minds, their gazes darkening as they looked at each other.

In the restaurant.

Shi Nuan, upon seeing Meng Zhi arrive, quickly put away her phone and greeted him with a smile.

Meng Zhi, noticing her action, felt a fleeting sense of loss but quickly recovered, speaking softly, “Nuannuan, these are the manta roses I prepared for you.”

Shi Nuan took the flowers he offered, holding them close and softly said, “I love them..”
