Reborn To Love

Chapter 216 Gu Yechen\'s Family

It has been several months since filming for Beautiful Things Past ended, but it had only just started broadcasting now.

In only a few days, the drama became the most popular and most viewed drama on all television stations and websites.

Besides Yang Siyue and Gu Yebei being the two most popular subjects of discussion because they were the main leads, He Xinyan was also surprisingly very popular for her breathtaking looks and outfits in the film and her amazing acting.

The top 3 most searched topics were:

1. Beautiful Things Past Latest Episode

2. Yang Siyue and Gu Yebei

3. He Xinyan Newbie Actress

He Xinyan\'s popularity was getting higher and higher, and more people were interested in her and searching her up on the Internet.

Many were able to dig up information about her like how she was the chairman of the He Corporation, and the granddaughter of the founder of the He Corporation.

Many people were waiting for her next film, so she had to post on her social media to clarify that she had left the entertainment industry already.

A lot of people expressed their sadness and regret about this, but she wasn\'t going to change her decision. She really liked and enjoyed her life right now, and she wanted to hold onto it while it lasted.

One day, He Xinyan and Gu Yechen were watching television after eating dinner. The final few episodes of Beautiful Things Past were broadcasting right now, and He Xinyan was very focused in watching her final few scenes before Concubine Xi would die.

The first episode finished and there was a short advertisement break before the next episode would start playing.

During this time, He Xinyan went to go get two more bags of chips since she finished the ones she was eating already.

When she came back, Gu Yechen pulled her closer to him on the couch and looked at her.

"Baby, I have something to ask you." He began playing with He Xinyan\'s hair as he spoke.

"What is it?" He Xinyan opened the new bag of chips and took a bite

"Well. . . My grandma\'s 80th birthday is next week and there is a family gathering. Do you want to come with me?"

He Xinyan stopped chewing for a few seconds and scratched her head.

The Gu family. . . Even the sound of it was scary.

He Xinyan looked up at Gu Yechen\'s nervous expression and grinned, "Sure!"

Gu Yechen\'s eyes widened in surprise, "Really?"

"Yes, why not! I want to go visit the Gu mansion. I heard it is really big!" He Xinyan\'s eyes sparkled at the image. So what if the Gu family was scary? She had Gu Yechen! And, the trip was worth it since only a few people ever got the chance to see the Gu mansion in person.

And, maybe she was overthinking. Xu Mengya was such a nice and easygoing person! Maybe the rest of his family was also going to be very nice.

He Xinyan knew that it wasn\'t going to be very likely, especially since the Gu family was a very, very powerful family. However, it was going to be okay. She had Gu Yechen with her!

"Tell me about your family," He Xinyan said as she turned off the television and leaned against Gu Yechen\'s chest.

"My grandma is the oldest member alive of the Gu family. She is a very traditional person. Next, my dad is the oldest son of three children. My second uncle has two daughters, and my third uncle has a son and a daughter. There is also Gu Kexin, who was an orphan adopted by my grandmother as a child and raised under her. However, you don\'t have to worry about them," Gu Yechen said casually as he continued to play with He Xinyan\'s hair.

"An orphan?" He Xinyan looked up at Gu Yechen in surprise. The Gu family didn\'t seem like the type to take in an orphan randomly.

"Yes," Gu Yechen nodded his head lightly.

He Xinyan leaned back down and furrowed her eyebrows together, "Then are your family members nice and easygoing?"

"You don\'t need to worry. When we go, you can just act like me. You only need to get along well with Madam Xu and Mister Gu. The rest, you don\'t need to."

". . ." He Xinyan didn\'t know what to say. After all, they were still his relatives!

He might be the crown prince of the family, but she wasn\'t the crown princess! Even if she was, she still had to respect the elders. . . right?

He Xinyan tried to stay calm but she still felt a little nervous about going to see the Gu family.

"Xinyan, remember. You don\'t need to care about anyone else. You are my woman. No one can bully you. . . except me. Understand?!" Gu Yechen lifted up He Xinyan\'s face and stared into her eyes seriously.

He Xinyan rolled her eyes, "You! Bully me? Ch! Do you dare to?"

Gu Yechen smirked, "Yes, I do."

Then, he bent down and blocked her lips with his. . .

A few days before the birthday party, He Xinyan dragged Gu Yechen to a shop to go find presents for all of his relatives.

Although Gu Yechen said there was no need, He Xinyan still insisted on doing so. It was the first time she was visiting his relatives. And, it was a very important event! So, it would be impolite if she didn\'t bring any presents.

"Do you think grandma will like this celadon tea set?" He Xinyan was inside a shop that sold celadon and porcelain items, and she immediately noticed this celadon tea set in the center of the shop.

Gu Yechen looked at the tea set for a few seconds before nodding his head, "Yes."

He Xinyan smiled and turned to the worker standing nearby, "Please help me package this nicely."

The worker walked over and took the box holding the tea set away, "One moment."

"Let\'s keep looking. It\'s the first time I\'m meeting your grandma. The gift can\'t be too cheap." He Xinyan wrapped her arm around Gu Yechen\'s elbow and pulled him over to another corner of the store.

Gu Yechen patiently looked around with He Xinyan, "You\'re too nervous."

"If my present is too cheap, you will lose face!" He Xinyan glanced at him, "Don\'t forget! I am also a very, very rich woman! Of course my present needs to be at least decent. Besides, your grandma is the oldest in your family. If she likes me, then no one can stop me anymore!" He Xinyan lifted her thumb up and giggled evilly.

Gu Yechen smiled, "Yes, rich woman. Then do you want to be my sugar mama?"

"No."

Gu Yechen raised one eyebrow, "Why?"

"Any smart person would rather take other people\'s money and put it in their own pocket, than take money out of their own pocket and give it to others!" He Xinyan thought for a second, "Maybe if you go bankrupt, then I will think about being your sugar mama."

Gu Yechen narrowed his eyes, "It seems like I have to work hard on earning money, so you won\'t ever have to think about being my sugar mama."

He Xinyan smiled softly and looked over at a worker nearby. She pointed at a red jade bracelet hanging on the wall and said, "Can you bring that down so I can take a look at it?"

The worker had packed the tea set into a box already, and she placed it on a table as she walked over to take the bracelet off the wall, "Miss, you have very good taste! This is the treasure of our shop. It is called the Xinyao Bracelet. It was made from very rare Xinyao jade."

The worker placed the bracelet on He Xinyan\'s hands.

"If one wears this bracelet on themselves for long enough, they will become immune to all poison, and this bracelet can also bring good luck! This bracelet can also last for a very long time. It can be passed on from generation to generation for several hundred or even thousand years, and it will still look just like it does now."

He Xinyan looked over the bracelet and brought it up to her nose to smell it. There was a very pleasant smell on the bracelet.

She looked at Gu Yechen, "Immune to poison? Really?"

Gu Yechen glanced at the bracelet and raised one eyebrow, "Do you believe it?"

He Xinyan frowned and shook her head slightly, "If it was actually that amazing, it wouldn\'t be here then."

Immune to poison. . . bring good luck. . . This was all just made up. No one ever tried it, so how would they know?

He Xinyan smelled the bracelet again, "But this bracelet does have a very great smell."

"You like it?" Gu Yechen asked.

He Xinyan shrugged and handed the bracelet back to the worker, "This is the treasure of the shop. There is no way they will sell this. I was just asking."

Gu Yechen looked at He Xinyan for several seconds before walking over to the worker and taking the bracelet back from her, "If you really want it, there is a way to get it."

He Xinyan looked up, "What?"

Gu Yechen played around with the bracelet before calmly saying, "I am the owner of this shop."
