Chapter 38: Perverted Cousin

Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Perverted Cousin

This girl who calls her sister should be that cousin, Qingqing.

"It’s okay." Gu Fuqiao nodded.

Upon hearing Gu Fuqiao’s words, Ouyang Qing frowned unhappily, crossed her arms, walked up to Gu Fuqiao, and said, "I don’t believe it. Marrying such a brute, how can there be any happiness?"

The original owner indeed thought Yan Zhen Guo was a brute and disliked him, but Gu Fuqiao did not feel the same way.

Yan Zhen Guo was actually quite kind to her. As a husband, he was definitely a great choice.

Gu Fuqiao wasn’t sure whether this cousin was being nice to her or not. She just smiled and said, "Actually, it’s not as bad as you think. You’re overthinking it."

"Really?" Ouyang Qing wore an expression of complete disbelief. She walked in and sat casually on the bed, saying, "I don’t believe anyone can be better than my brother. I think you’re regretting inside but just won’t admit it."

Ouyang Qing looked like a typical brat with her smug expression, but judging by her appearance, she was at least twenty. It’s likely that her family spoiled her, and she probably had no ill intent.

"Your cousin is great, but you can’t compare like that. You’ll understand once you get married." Gu Fuqiao whispered.

Ouyang Qing hadn’t expected Gu Fuqiao to answer her like that. She snorted coldly and said, "Of course, anyway, my husband won’t be such a brute in the future. He’ll definitely be a prince on a white horse!"

"Yeah, right, he’ll definitely be a prince on a white horse." When dealing with such a little girl, coaxing is enough.

"What are you talking about?" Ouyang Xuan suddenly walked in from outside.

Upon seeing Ouyang Xuan, Ouyang Qing immediately became disciplined, got up from the bed, and said, "You two chat, I’ll leave first."

Once Ouyang Qing left, Ouyang Xuan reached out to close the door, walking toward Gu Fuqiao.

Gu Fuqiao wondered why Ouyang Xuan closed the door. This isn’t ancient times; cousins are normal relatives. What’s the point of closing the door... unless the relationship isn’t normal!

Ouyang Xuan walked toward Gu Fuqiao, and upon nearing, gently placed his hands on Gu Fuqiao’s shoulders.

Gu Fuqiao sensed something was amiss. Although they were cousins, they were both adults, and it seemed too intimate. Moreover... she noticed Ouyang Xuan looking at her earnestly, his eyes nearly brimming with tenderness. That look was abnormal, definitely not one a brother would have toward his sister!

Gu Fuqiao quickly stood up and discreetly removed Ouyang Xuan’s hands from her shoulders.

"Cousin, is there something wrong?" Gu Fuqiao took a step back and asked.

Ouyang Xuan hadn’t expected Gu Fuqiao to avoid him. Looking at his empty palm, he smiled bitterly and said, "Ah Jiao, are you angry at me for not stopping you from marrying someone else?"

Something’s off. There’s definitely an abnormal sister-brother bond between Ouyang Xuan and the original owner.

Can’t let Ouyang Xuan continue talking!

"Cousin, what are you talking about? I think my Zhen Guo is quite good. It’s normal to have little tiffs since we’re not very familiar before marriage. Cousin, don’t overthink it. Isn’t it almost mealtime now? I’ll head down first." After saying, Gu Fuqiao hurriedly walked outside.

"Ah Jiao, I know you’re still angry with me." Seeing Gu Fuqiao about to leave, Ouyang Xuan felt anxious and hurriedly grabbed Gu Fuqiao’s hand.

"Brother-in-law, sister is right in there." Suddenly, Ouyang Qing’s voice sounded outside the door.

Gu Fuqiao looked up and saw the smiling Ouyang Qing leading Yan Zhen Guo in.

Ouyang Xuan hadn’t expected Ouyang Qing to bring Yan Zhen Guo in. He immediately let go of Gu Fuqiao’s hand, standing awkwardly to the side.

Yan Zhen Guo’s observation skills needed no mention. As soon as the door opened, he saw the situation inside the room.

"Brother, why are you still in sister’s room? What funny things were you talking about? And the door was closed?" Ouyang Qing raised her voice.

Ouyang Qing seemed to have brought Yan Zhen Guo to catch them in the act.

Ouyang Xuan hadn’t expected Ouyang Qing to talk like that. He frowned slightly and said, "Qingqing, I was just showing care for Ah Jiao. She’s been married for a month and has never left home for so long. Look at you, as her sister, you only know how to eat, drink, and play every day without caring for your sister."

Listening to Ouyang Xuan’s brotherly concern, Gu Fuqiao had no comments.

Being lectured by Ouyang Xuan, Ouyang Qing didn’t say anything else but turned to Yan Zhen Guo and said, "Brother-in-law, let’s go down to eat first! The dishes are ready. Since Brother and Sister Ah Jiao still have things to talk about, let them continue."

"No, I’ll wait to go down with your sister." Yan Zhen Guo spoke while walking up to Gu Fuqiao.

Previously, Gu Fuqiao wished to avoid Yan Zhen Guo as far as possible. But in the presence of this twisted cousin, seeing Yan Zhen Guo, she felt exceptionally secure.

She proactively grabbed Yan Zhen Guo’s sleeve and said, "Actually, I’ve talked about as much as I need to with my cousin. Let’s go down and eat together."

"Yeah." Ouyang Xuan, looking a bit guilty, turned his head and said, "I’m quite hungry too, let’s go eat downstairs!"

After speaking, Ouyang Xuan and Ouyang Qing descended the stairs first.

Once they were downstairs, Gu Fuqiao held onto Yan Zhen Guo’s sleeve. Perhaps due to Mrs. Li’s words earlier, she felt not only concerned about losing face when Yan Zhen Guo saw her.

She felt a bit worried about being misunderstood by Yan Zhen Guo...

"Yan Zhen Guo, I’m not..." Gu Fuqiao wanted to explain but found herself unable to express it once the words reached her mouth.

How to say it? Say that this twisted cousin has an unethical fondness for his cousin? Saying that would make her look bad too.

"You weren’t speaking ill of me to them?" Yan Zhen Guo suddenly spoke.

The man’s cool voice made Gu Fuqiao pause momentarily. She looked up at Yan Zhen Guo and noticed his expression was as usual, nothing unusual.

That meant he really didn’t overthink. After all, a proper and upright person wouldn’t usually think in certain ways. Given that the cousin-cousin narrative only became popular later.

Gu Fuqiao breathed a mild sigh of relief. She nodded slightly and said, "Yes, they all think I’m not doing well after marrying you, but actually it’s not bad. At least you gave me candy to eat." After speaking, Gu Fuqiao took out the candy Yan Zhen Guo had given her that morning and shook it in her hand.

Seeing Gu Fuqiao’s action, Yan Zhen Guo’s lips curved slightly, though not noticeably enough for Gu Fuqiao to see.

Mrs. Li standing outside the door saw the couple’s affection and couldn’t help coughing twice, "Cough cough..."

Gu Fuqiao turned and noticed Mrs. Li nodding slightly, smiling awkwardly and saying, "Miss, young master, it’s time to eat."

Upon hearing the word "young master" again, Yan Zhen Guo slightly furrowed his brow.
