Reborn as a Fake Heiress Marrying the Tycoon novel Chapter 35

Chapter 35: Smiling

Gu Zi thought about all of this and looked at Su Shen gently. She said, "Mr. Su, I have something to do in the city tomorrow."

When Su Shen heard that Gu Zi wanted to go to the city, his first reaction was that Gu Zi wanted to leave. He felt a little uncomfortable, but he still nodded and agreed. "Sure."

"Then I'll get Aunt Chu to take care of Lele." Su Shen's gaze fell on Lele, who was in Gu Zi's arms. He still remembered that when he went home in the past, Lele would always hide in a dirty place and refuse to let Aunt Chu carry her.

It was a stark contrast to her behavior now. Lele seemed to be unable to leave Gu Zi at all times.

When Gu Zi heard the words "Aunt Chu", her brows furrowed slightly. She shook her head and said, "That's not necessary. I can take Lele to the city with me."

Gu Zi did not want Aunt Chu to take care of Lele anymore. Given Aunt Chu's behavior, she feared she might mistreat Lele.

If it weren't for the fact that she wasn't familiar with Su Shen, she would have simply asked Aunt Chu to leave.

Besides, Aunt Chu was more reliable in Su Shen's eyes compared to her. If she badmouthed Aunt Chu, Su Shen might not be pleased and might even suspect her of having ulterior motives.

It was better to avoid unnecessary complications.

Su Shen's deep black eyes briefly gleamed as he considered that she might be homesick. Bringing a child to town might lead to people gossiping about her. "Is it convenient for you?"

Actually, he could understand Gu Zi's situation. She was a young lady from a wealthy family, but in the end, she married a man who was more than ten years older and had three children.

If this became public knowledge, there would surely be gossip and criticism.

Gu Zi smiled and said, "It's alright, I just need to run some errands."

Su Shen, however, observed her with a gaze that held a hint of something more.

..

Gu Zi woke up naturally the next morning.

In an era without smartphones or computers, she no longer had a reason to stay up late, and had gone to bed early the night before.

As she got up, she walked to the window, pulled back the curtains, and opened it wide.

Fresh air rushed in, and she gazed at the distant green hills and clear waters. She felt rejuvenated.

Heading downstairs, she heard some activity coming from the kitchen. She figured it might be the two children preparing breakfast.
