Chapter 1699: Tong An KneelsEditor: Henyee Translations

Zhao Chengxi immediately put away his playful expression, put his arms around Big Qian’s neck, and asked him, "You didn’t say anything just now. What’s wrong? Do you want to go to the capital too? Let’s go together. I think Zhuangzi might be brought there by the boss."

He, Zhuangzi, and Big Qian were all hooligans who wore the same pants back then.

But now, they were all working in the Gu family. Speaking of which, it was fate.

Big Qian did want to go, but...

He laughed bitterly and shook his head. "I’m not going. If I leave, what will happen to my grandmother?"

Zhao Chengxi fell silent when he heard that. Indeed, Grandma Qian was old and it was a little strenuous for her to walk slowly. It was impossible for her to follow Big Qian on a long trip, and Big Qian would not leave her alone.

However, he could tell that Big Qian actually wanted to go.

This was a dilemma. Zhao Chengxi scratched his head, not knowing what to say.

On the contrary, Big Qian patted his shoulder with a smile. "It’s alright. You and Zhuangzi are going, right? You can stay there for two years. Come back and tell me what the capital is like. Then I’ll know."

Zhao Chengxi secretly sighed and nodded.

The two of them walked forward as they spoke.

Gu Yundong was standing at the entrance of the workshop. She had heard some of their conversation.

However, there was nothing she could do about this. She could only shake her head and walk towards the Gu family.

Tong An followed behind her, but his footsteps were a little heavy. He looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.

When they were about to step into the Gu family, he suddenly said, "Miss, I-I want to ask you for a favor."

"You finally spoke?" Gu Yundong raised her eyebrows, stopped in her tracks and turned around. "I was wondering how long you would take to speak."

A stunned expression flashed across Tong An’s face. Then, he smiled bitterly. "Miss, you could tell?"

As Gu Yundong stepped into the Gu house, he said, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Tong An pursed his lips. When he entered the central room, he suddenly knelt down in front of Gu Yundong. "I... I want to marry Miss Shen."

He was a servant of the Gu family. His marriage required his master’s approval.

Gu Yundong was really shocked this time. "Marry Shen Sitian?"

"Yes, I know I’m overestimating myself, but... but I do have improper thoughts about Miss Shen."

Gu Yundong stroked her chin. She knew that there was something fishy going on between the two of them.

However, neither of them said anything. She thought that they would have to dawdle for a few more years.

Unexpectedly, she just decided to take Tong An to the capital, and he had already come up with the idea.

"When did you start having improper thoughts?" Gu Yundong did not let him stand up.

Tong Shuitao brought over a cup of tea. When she saw her second uncle kneeling on the ground, she was stunned for a moment and tilted her head in confusion.

Tong An acted as if he did not see his niece and said in a low voice, "Ever since Miss Shen first came to the Gu family."

"Pfft..." Gu Yundong spat out a mouthful of tea. "When?"

"From the beginning." Tong An’s face was flushed red as he spoke in embarrassment.

The corners of Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched. "You liked her from the beginning, and you could hold it in until now? If I remember correctly, she was the one who took care of you when you were injured and unconscious in bed, right? She was so obvious at that time, but you were so calm that I thought you didn’t have any thoughts at all."
