Eighties Sweetheart Wife-Chapter 661 Indescribable

Song Yunuan no longer ran around everywhere and stopped going to the laboratory.

Of course, her laboratory was safe, free of harmful materials, and lacked things like radiation.

Even when she did go, she took adequate protective measures.

Xia Xindong only wished for Song Yunuan to inherit his medical business, so he naturally wouldn’t let Little Nuan do anything dangerous.

Nowadays, Gu Huai’an was still in charge of the technology sector, and there were not many occasions for him to visit the lab.

He was more involved in overall coordination.

Still, he managed to find time to accompany Song Yunuan.

Usually, on weekends, the family would gather together.

Gu Huaiming also got married.

He married a girl from the Li family of the big courtyard.

It was this Gu Jiaojiao who was somewhat troublesome. Who else could she fall for if not Song Mingbo?

This... where to even begin.

Even though there was no blood relation and actually no issue with them marrying, like in Erdao River Town where in the past there were even cousins who married their cousin-in-laws.

If they really got together, it wouldn’t be a big deal.

The elders would think it adds more closeness to the kinship. freewebnøvel.com

But that’s not the problem.

The main issue was Song Mingbo already had someone on his mind, a colleague from work. Her family was simple, with very nice home conditions; both parents were university professors, with a brother in the military. Her family just included her and her parents, a family of scholars indeed. But of course, the Song family didn’t care about that.

As long as the children are happy, the elders do not intervene.

But this... not interfering might not be good.

In fact, not many people knew about it, only Old Mrs. Song and Song Yunuan.

Of course, Wang Mengdan was unaware.

Song Yunuan didn’t tell Xia Guilan, mainly because she was worried she would overthink things, and she also didn’t tell Qin Suyun.

Qin Suyun was now studying nutrition on her own and spent her days with Old Master Ji. At the company, she was not yet of retirement age, but due to certain factors, she was preparing to retire early and now worked in logistics support.

So, she naturally had time to study things like nutrition.

Everyone knew she was learning for her daughter-in-law.

Even so, Song Yunuan did not tell Qin Suyun.

Gu Jiaojiao had graduated from university and started working; she naturally met Song Mingbo after Song Yunuan’s marriage.

Song Mingbo had taken her out a few times. Song Mingbo loved to talk, and even though he was very discreet due to work, the other party was his sis-in-law’s cousin, though one generation removed, they were still considered family, so he naturally looked after her as he would his own sister.

If he had to be cautious and discreet at home as well, not just at work, Song Mingbo felt he would be incredibly suffocated — and nobody expected that of him, of course.

He was naturally chatty and cheerful, also skilled in mysticism, incredibly precise in assessing people and situations.

His words had a way of reaching the heart.

When they went out, he took special care of Jiaojiao.

The girl took it to heart.

Once it took root, she couldn’t let it go.

In the beginning, Song Yunuan was unaware until Old Mrs. Song hinted at it, and then she found out.

By that time, Old Mrs. Song had already subtly warned Song Mingbo.

Realizing the unpleasant situation, Song Mingbo then told Old Mrs. Song that he was already seeing someone.

It was just that the relationship was new and hadn’t reached the stage to be made public yet.

Old Mrs. Song was both delighted and worried.

She was happy that her eldest grandson was truly about to get married, and once he had children, she would then be a great-grandmother.

Living to her current age, she truly considered herself a blessed old soul; people who endure poverty hope to live longer, not to mention those enjoying good days.

The one who was worried was Wang Mengdan. At first, she thought Qin Suyun was a bit troublesome, but after getting to know her, she realized that Qin Suyun was not really troublesome at all.

Moreover, that person had strong principles.

She had her own stance.

So interacting with such a person wouldn’t be exhausting, but Wang Mengdan was a different story.

It would be strange if she didn’t pick at her own grandson.

Old Mrs. Song didn’t want her eldest grandson to be nitpicked to death, and what was this about Little Nuan being caught in the middle anyway? It’s not as if the Song family couldn’t afford to find a daughter-in-law.

Of course, one couldn’t say that the girl was bad. Everyone said she was arrogant and unreasonable, but she was extremely respectful towards herself, and when she came to visit, she would chat with her and seemed very likable.

But that wasn’t the point.

If the two youngsters liked each other, she wouldn’t really have anything to say, but the main issue was that her eldest grandson already had a partner.

Old Mrs. Song was a decisive person and didn’t beat around the bush.

The very next day, she had Song Mingbo bring his partner home and also invited Little Nuan over for a family dinner, which counted as an introduction.

Old Mrs. Song gave the girl a hefty red envelope.

Song Yunuan also gave her a gift upon meeting.

When Song Yunuan returned home in the evening, she saw Gu Jiaojiao standing at the door with eyes red from crying, and only then did she understand what was going on.

She held her forehead, truly at a loss for words, but still led Jiaojiao into her own bedroom.

She shut Gu Huai’an outside the door, telling him to do whatever he needed to do.

Gu Huai’an didn’t go far and was looking at documents not too far from the bedroom on the sofa.

After reading documents for a while, he went to make a late-night snack for Little Nuan.

It was then that Song Yunuan learned about Jiaojiao’s secret unrequited love.

Song Yunuan tentatively asked, "When did you begin to like him?"

Gu Jiaojiao answered in a low voice, "For a long time... before he started seeing someone."

Song Yunuan frowned and asked, "Does my big brother... know about it?"

Gu Jiaojiao immediately shook her head, "He doesn’t know, no one knows. I have just told you about it."

Song Yunuan took a deep breath, reached out to ruffle Gu Jiaojiao’s hair, and spoke in a gentle voice, "You, perhaps you haven’t seen clearly what’s in your own heart. Although you’ve grown up, the family still treats you as a child. Just yesterday, I heard Auntie calling you ’treasure’, right?

Everyone’s precious baby, psychologically still a child, not yet distinguishing whether this is familial affection, friendship, or romantic love. It’s quite normal.

But regardless, I’m glad you told me, so just forget about it. My big brother has read your fortune, right? He said you’ll be happy."

Gu Jiaojiao replied with a bitter smile, "Will I? How could someone like me be happy?"

She had been in relationships before, and although they eventually broke up, she knew what it felt like to be in love.

She should never have come between her big brother and Sister Shu Xiang.

At that time, when her big brother looked at Shu Xiang, there was light in his eyes.

Now, although he is gentle, there is no light in his eyes when he looks at his wife.

In short, just an ordinary couple, but if two people are in love, it’s definitely different.

Just like my cousin and his wife.

Even when the two of them stand silently, you would know they love each other.

How to describe it?

It’s like when they want to create a world of their own; not even a drop of water could penetrate it.

That’s what the so-called world for two means.

Gu Jiaojiao said, "Don’t worry, I won’t do anything disgraceful to embarrass our parents, and I won’t make things difficult for you. But I’d like to study abroad."

Song Yunuan nodded her head, that was feasible—to go out and see the world, clear her mind. This episode would then be over.

It was also fortunate that her big brother was truly seeing someone now, otherwise, given Gu Jiaojiao’s temperament, she would have definitely wanted to try.
