Back to the 1980s: Transmigrated as the Bigshot's Pampered Wife Chapter 164: The Sentimental Master

Gu Jiaojiao saw Su Shuochi through the crowd. He looked incredibly proud, the corners of his mouth stretched into a wide grin.

She could even feel him trembling slightly. He was usually so stern and reserved, but right now, he was grinning like a fool.

Her heart ward. ’This man is so adorably foolish.’

She cut through the crowd and walked straight to Su Shuochi. "There’s nothing else for to do here, so I’ll be leaving."

The people who wanted to curry favor with her were speechless...

’But we still have so much to say!’

It wasn’t until the sight of Gu Jiaojiao pushing the wheelchair disappeared from view that everyone snapped back to reality.

Xi Guodong also stared, entranced, at her departing figure until the beautiful silhouette was gone.

Only then did he turn to look at Mr. Xi, who was being wheeled out. "Grandpa, you’re awake?"

A group of officials under Xi Gaoguan began to gossip in hushed tones, sothing they’d never done before.

"Young Master Xi, the so-called ’Number One Young Master of Qing City,’ just confessed his feelings in front of everyone and got rejected?!"

"Divine Doctor Su Gu can’t be more than twenty, and she’s already married? Is that for real?"

"It must be true. Our Young Master Xi has the family background, the talent, and the looks."

"Did you see? Divine Doctor Su Gu left while pushing that man in the wheelchair."

"Isn’t that obvious? We’re not blind, of course we saw it!"

"That’s not what I an. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on !"

"Even Young Master Xi can get rejected. The world is full of lovesick fools, and that kind of love has nothing to do with the wind or the moon."

Everyone present was inwardly speculating about the relationship between Divine Doctor Su Gu and Su Shuochi.

Second Uncle Dong and Mr. Sheng also stood with their mouths agape, watching as the bewitching Divine Doctor Su Gu approached Su Shuochi and naturally began to push his wheelchair away.

"Old Sheng, they just left like that. Do you think Shuo Ci will dump Jiaojiao for Divine Doctor Su Gu?"

"No way! Shuo Ci is completely different with Jiaojiao. Her kindness is the only light in his dark world. The colder and more distant he is to others, the more passionate and yearning he is for Jiaojiao."

Mr. Sheng sounded certain, but inwardly his heart was pounding. Divine Doctor Su Gu was so outstanding; perhaps Shuo Ci’s heart really would change.

"You have a point. Maybe Divine Doctor Su Gu is helping treat Shuo Ci’s legs, which is why they’re so familiar with each other."

Uncle Dong also hoped Su Shuochi wouldn’t dump Jiaojiao. If he did, his older sister’s family would be in a terrible position!

He and Mr. Sheng simultaneously ran after them toward the hospital entrance, but their figures were already long gone.

Xi Gaoguan was also stunned.

He knew his son’s personality. While not exactly cold, arrogant, and aloof, he was notoriously difficult to approach.

Furthermore, he had been very smart since he was a child, always at the top of his class. His grandfather had once tried to arrange a marriage for him, but he had refused.

But today, he had actually... actually confessed to Divine Doctor Su Gu! What a pity his son had been rejected.

He gave his son a deep look. "Guodong, don’t be discouraged. Divine Doctor Su Gu is just too exceptional."

Xi Guodong’s brows furrowed slightly, a hint of displeasure on his face. "Dad, didn’t you hear what Divine Doctor Su Gu said?"

"Heh heh... I heard her clearly. She said she’s already married. Otherwise, she would have accepted you."

For the first ti, Chairman Xi said sothing he didn’t an. ’Divine Doctor Su Gu is so young,’ he thought, ’it’s impossible that she’s married.’

’She said she’s only eighteen. To have such brilliant dical skills at such a young age, where would she find the ti to get married?’

Chairman Xi saw Dong Jianjun and Sheng Liangyuan walk in looking dejected. "Has Divine Doctor Su Gu really left?"

"Yes. Shuo Ci invited her. Only Su Shuochi knows where she lives."

"Isn’t Su Shuochi already married?" Xi Gaoguan asked curiously.

"Yes, Shuo Ci married Old Gu’s granddaughter. They have a very good relationship."

Mr. Sheng didn’t have the face to say Jiaojiao was his adopted daughter, since he was the one who had unilaterally published a notice in the papers to sever their ties.

The subject of their discussion, Divine Doctor Su Gu—or rather, Gu Jiaojiao—was currently driving back to their ho in the compound.

In the passenger seat, Su Shuochi stared at her without blinking, his gaze searing hot.

His affectionate eyes shimred, filled with a honey-like sweetness so intense it could almost be wrung out, as he silently watched Gu Jiaojiao.

It was impossible to ignore. His eyes remained fixed on her, making it difficult for her to drive properly.

"You..."

He suddenly leaned close to her ear, his warm breath fanning across her sensitive skin. "Wifey... I love you..."

As he spoke, his eyes shone with deep affection, as if he were pouring his heart out to a long-lost lover.

His focused, loving gaze was enough to make her heart lt!

But they were inseparable every day. She wanted to push him away, but still asked softly, "Su Shuochi, what’s gotten into you?"

The man’s arm suddenly hooked around her neck, pulling her closer.

His lips pressed against her cheek, his breath scorching hot. "Because I’m afraid you’ll run away."

Gu Jiaojiao was speechless...

’This guy is insane!’

"As long as you still like , I won’t leave you."

This man was always so insecure, but Gu Jiaojiao was willing to indulge him.

"I will love you for lifeti after lifeti, Jiaojiao. You have to rember what you just said. Don’t leave ."

After speaking, Su Shuochi released Gu Jiaojiao. After all, the car was on a main road, and no matter how reluctant he was to let go, he wouldn’t lose control.

When they reached the entrance to the compound, Su Shuochi put the car into his space and changed into a new set of clothes.

When Su Shuochi and his wife got ho, they saw the traditional Chinese painting master, Cheng Tao, and her mom crying their eyes out in the living room.

This gave her a huge shock. Gu Jiaojiao was completely astonished. "Grandpa, what’s wrong with Professor Cheng and my mom? Who made them cry?"

"Them? Tsk, tsk... They’re crying over a TV show. Such sentintal people," Li An said with disdain.

Seeing Gu Jiaojiao was back, he tossed aside the chess piece in his hand and walked over to her, not forgetting to add another comnt.

"Jiaojiao, it’s one thing for your mom to cry at the TV, but for that crazy old man to be crying too... tsk, tsk..."

When Grandpa Gu saw his granddaughter and grandson-in-law had returned, he imdiately went to greet them. "Jiaojiao, did that kid from the Xi family want sothing from you? Have you two eaten yet?"

"Grandpa, we haven’t eaten yet. We went to observe Professor Xia performing surgery on Mr. Xi."

Su Shuochi quickly interjected, because Geng Haoyi and Fu Junyuan were also in the living room.

"I knew you hadn’t eaten. There’s food left in the pot for you." After saying this, Grandpa Gu imdiately went to the kitchen to bring out the food.

Mrs. Gu wiped her tears away, embarrassed. She made to stand up, but then glanced reluctantly at the TV drama, which hadn’t finished yet.

Cheng Tao wasn’t the least bit embarrassed. He even said to Gu Jiaojiao between sobs,

"Jiaojiao, co quick and watch! The little girl in this show is so pitiful!

Her father died when she was one, her mother died when she was two, her grandpa died when she was three, and at four, her beloved grandmother passed away too.

She beca a poor orphan, getting beaten and cursed at every day. In the end, she was almost sold off by human traffickers! Sob... sob... She’s so pitiful."

Gu Jiaojiao was speechless...

’Good grief!’

’Who knew they had such absurd soap operas in this era, and with such a ridiculously lodramatic plot.’
