4694 Never Too Late to Love (101)
"Speaking of your parents…" Bai Sheng tapped her chin and asked curiously, "I'm really curious, what exactly do your parents look like?"
"Why are you curious?"
"Because…" She blushed and said hesitantly, "Because you look so dashing, your mother's surely very beautiful, and your father must be very handsome."
Gu Chengze hesitated for a long time before explaining solemnly, "Actually…"
"Actually?"
"My father is rather pretty, and my mother is rather handsome."
"…"
What!!
A pretty father-in-law? A handsome mother-in-law?
The idea was really difficult to reconcile.
Seeing how curious Bai Sheng was, Gu Chengze became enthusiastic as well, and said, "Why don't I arrange for you to meet them."
"Are you unwilling to…" Bai Sheng was a little embarrassed.
Feeling rather helpless, Gu Chengze replied, "How could I be unwilling? Didn't I explain this before? Their hearts are more delicate. I wasn't sure how you felt about me. What if I introduced you and you decided that I wasn't the right person for you? We wouldn't have been able to make it to the end, and their daughter-in-law would have flown away. They wouldn't be able to take it."
"…"
Was that so? Bai Sheng was greatly amused. She immediately held his hand and reassured him, "Don't worry, I won't fly away. Since I am already married to you, I will learn to be a virtuous wife. Your worries are needless."
"Then… let's do it tomorrow!" Gu Chengze held her hand and heaved a sigh of relief.
Since she said this, it probably meant that she had decided on him and would not waver. Could he take it as such?
Bai Sheng couldn't help feeling excited. "I'm so looking forward to meeting my in-laws! However, isn't this too abrupt? We haven't even told them about our marriage."
"My mother should already know, but my father…" Gu Chengze thought for a moment and decided that Chu He probably wouldn't have told Gu Jinglian about this so soon.
Bai Sheng had really started to imagine. It was so strange. She could not imagine what Gu Chengze's parents would look like.
A pretty father-in-law? A handsome mother-in-law? It was really difficult to imagine.
However, Gu Chengze was so gentle. Her in-laws would probably be kind-looking too, right?!
An old couple living in an ordinary apartment who treated each other with respect.
Because Gu Chengze said that the two of them were very loving.
But …
When Bai Sheng finally stood at the entrance of the forbidding and architecturally unsophisticated Gu Residence, everything she had imagined was shattered.
…
The entire Gu residence stood on the most expensive piece of land in the capital. It could be said that every inch of land was worth gold.
Not only that.
For some reason, even though the weather was clear and sunny, standing in front of this old residential building seemed oppressive. It was as if dark clouds were pressing down on her.
"So familiar…" Bai Sheng furrowed her eyebrows and looked at the high threshold. She felt as though she had seen this door before.
Had she been here before?
If she had been here, why didn't she remember it?
If she had never been here before, why did she feel like she had been here before?
"What's the matter?" Gu Chengze saw that she was standing frozen at the door. He walked over and gently pinched her face. "You're already nervous before you even see your parents-in-law?"
"No…"
It wasn't that she was being too nervous, although she was indeed a little nervous.
But …
It was more of a déjà vu.
