Chapter 809: Pressured to Get Married

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The next day when Gu Huanhuan went to pick Wen Chi up, she told him that she had a job, it had been three days and he could get his car back today.

Wen Chi nodded and told her that he would get his car after work today and she didn’t need to be his personal chauffeur anymore.

Gu Huanhuan was slightly surprised. How was he so much nicer now?

However, she still said guiltily, “I’m really sorry. Just let me know when you get the bill. I’ll transfer the money to you.”

“Alright, we’ll figure it out later.” Wen Chi sat in the front passenger seat and pinched the bridge of his nose. He didn’t sleep well last night and had a slight headache now.

It was mainly because he had been bombarded by his mother the whole of last night.

Last night when he got home after dinner, he received a call from his mother when he was resting on his sofa.

It was the same old question again.

Mrs. Wen went straight to the point and said, “You must think about getting married soon. I’m always asked by acquaintances why our son isn’t married yet.”

Wen Chi was stunned. His parents had been anxious about him getting married but they had never called him so late at night to tell him that. Someone or something must have provoked his mother today.

As expected, he heard Mrs. Wen say, “The classmate you used to hang out with, Zhao Rong, already has a three-year-old son. I almost couldn’t recognize him when we bumped into each other today.”

“Mom, Zhao Rong started his career earlier. It’s only natural that he got married and have kids earlier.” Wen Chi said helplessly as he rubbed his aching temples.

“Don’t set your sights too high. You don’t need a pretty wife, just someone who can take care of people. You know that you have a demanding job. Just find someone who loves you.” Mrs. Wen was a typical mother-in-law.

Wen Chi was silent for a moment. Finding the right person was really hard. He thought that he had found his ideal mate but she had rejected her before they even got started…

His mentality now was to just let nature take its course. He would rather be single if he couldn’t find the right mate.

Mrs. Wen knew that her son had something on his mind when he didn’t answer, so she nagged him about going home for dinner, etc. and then hung up.

When Wen Chi went to bed last night, he kept thinking about this question and couldn’t sleep.

“Dr. Wen, are you alright? We’ve arrived at the hospital.” Gu Huanhuan said.

Only then did Wen Chi snap back to his senses. He looked around and realized that they were already at the hospital main entrance driveway.

“Yes. Thanks.” Wen Chi opened the car door and left.

Gu Huanhuan shook her head as she watch Wen Chi leave. “Being a doctor is like having no off days. They are on call 24×7.”

Gu Huanhuan knew that her grandfather was getting a check-up this morning. Her father and cousin were both there, so she didn’t go up. She turned her car around and drove to Qiyuan.

She wanted to play with Xiaobao. She hadn’t seen him for a few days and missed him.

When she arrived at Qiyuan, she saw Shu Pan playing in the courtyard with Xiaobao, getting some sun at the same time.

“Cousin-in-law, Xiaobao, I’m here.” Gu Huanhuan greeted them happily.

“No work today?” Shu Pan asked with a smile.

“No, I have a mall opening ceremony tomorrow. I plan to get a filming assignment soon but I haven’t decided yet.” Gu Huanhuan only acted for fun. After all, she was quite well off financially.

“I see. Don’t work too hard. Leave sometime to get a boyfriend.” Shu Pan teased.

“Boyfriend? All I attract are nonsensical suitors.” Gu Huanhuan had been in the entertainment industry long enough to lose interest in finding true love.

In our materialistic society today, love had become a commodity. She had seen many such examples around her, so she had no expectations for romance.
