Chapter 422: Chapter 424: Inviting Cheng Junnan to Dinner
Looking at Gu Yunyun’s expression, Gu Tiantian was sure that Gu Yunyun misunderstood her relationship with Cheng Junnan.
Thinking of Bai Chenyao, Gu Tiantian felt it was very necessary to have Grandma testify for her at that moment.
"Grandma, that was President Cheng from my previous company. It was he who came to help call 120 and took us to the hospital when you had a heart attack."
Grandma Gu looked even more surprised, staring at Gu Tiantian.
"President Cheng?"
Gu Tiantian nodded quickly, with a slight smile on her face.
"Yes, it’s President Cheng."
"Oh, you child, when did President Cheng come over? Why didn’t you invite him in? You should know he helped us a lot last time!"
"Oh dear, getting old, Grandma has actually forgotten about this. It’s really..."
Grandma Gu looked very embarrassed. Someone helped her, but she forgot to thank them.
Suddenly remembering what her granddaughter said about seeing President Cheng last night but not inviting him in.
"Tiantian, why didn’t you invite President Cheng up the night before last? Although our family’s meals are simple, it’s at least a token of our gratitude."
Gu Tiantian looked a bit embarrassed and glanced at Grandma.
"Grandma, it was late the night before last, and we had already eaten. At that time, uncle went to take a shower, so I went downstairs to make a call. I didn’t expect to run into him then. It wasn’t appropriate to invite President Cheng up for dinner at that hour, right?"
Grandma Gu was taken aback and lost for words.
Her granddaughter had a point.
Even if they invited him up, it would be for a late-night snack.
To truly thank someone, you shouldn’t invite them for a late-night snack but have a proper meal!
It would be better not to invite him at all!
Grandma Gu frowned, looking at her granddaughter.
Gu Yunyun watched, her eyes turned, and she had an idea.
"Grandma, how about asking Tiantian to call the President Cheng she mentioned? We’re home, we can start cooking now, and he can join us for dinner once he arrives!"
Grandma Gu hesitated a bit, so Gu Yunyun quickly added.
"Grandma, it’s been a while since you were discharged, but we haven’t thanked him yet. This isn’t like our Old Gu Family style."
Grandma Gu’s expression changed, and she nodded.
"Alright then!"
After speaking, she looked at Gu Tiantian with a loving voice.
"Tiantian, call President Cheng and invite him to our home for a meal, as a thank you for his help that day."
Even though her granddaughter was present, the granddaughter was clearly much more sensible now. And since she took the initiative to suggest inviting President Cheng, it was evident she didn’t mind the incident when President Cheng helped her push her mom.
Thinking this made Grandma even more determined to have her granddaughter invite President Cheng over for dinner to thank him.
"What are you waiting for, Tiantian? Hurry up and call. I’ll check what’s in the kitchen, then ask Yunyun to go downstairs and buy a chicken."
Although a bit caught off guard, seeing that Grandma had already gotten up to go to the kitchen, Gu Tiantian couldn’t bring herself to tell Grandma about the awkwardness between her and Cheng Junnan.
Moreover, the situation between her and Cheng Junnan was indeed awkward.
If they could avoid meeting, it would be best never to see each other again.
Yet, here they were...
Sitting on the sofa, Gu Tiantian did not immediately make the call.
"Tiantian, Grandma wants you to call quickly. It’s almost dinnertime. If you wait until President Cheng has already eaten, it’s obviously not sincere!"
Gu Tiantian glared fiercely at Gu Yunyun, not understanding which nerve Gu Yunyun had pressed wrong to insist on inviting Cheng Junnan for dinner.
