Chapter 484: Is Brother-in-law Angry?
Because he was with the siblings Gao Xiaoxi and Gao Xiaohu, Chen Fan didn't return to school.
Instead, he drove to the best hotel in the city and booked two suite rooms.
The rooms had large floor-to-ceiling windows, from which one could overlook the distant city, offering a particularly beautiful view.
Su Ruochu explained to Chen Fan that the Gao siblings had never traveled far from home before, so she had to keep an eye on them.
She would stay with them at the hotel for these two days.
Chen Fan agreed.
After sitting in the room for about ten minutes, he said goodbye and left with Feng Pojun.
As soon as Chen Fan left, Gao Xiaoxi quickly stood up and excitedly stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scenery outside, chattering non-stop.
After all, she was still childlike, and the series of new experiences immediately made her forget about the dangerous encounter earlier.
As for Gao Xiaohu, he had been gloomy since leaving the station, frowning and lost in thought.
"Cousin, I love this room so much. The view outside is really amazing."
Gao Xiaoxi bounced around excitedly.
"I've never stayed in such a nice hotel in my life."
"Brother-in-law is so rich... no, I mean, brother-in-law is so handsome."
Su Ruochu was arranging clothes from the suitcase and couldn't help but shake her head when she heard this.
"So being rich makes one handsome, huh?"
"Of course!"
"Brother-in-law is not only rich, but also generous and clear about right and wrong. Especially towards you, cousin, he loves you to the bone."
"Didn't you hear him on the phone in the car? For your safety, he was going to round up all the thieves near the station in one sweep."
"That's so domineering and cool."
"If a guy did that for me, I'd be head over heels already."
"Compared to brother-in-law, those boys at school who only know how to brag about how great they are are just clowns."
Hearing this, Gao Xiaohu, sitting on the sofa, slightly changed his expression, looking a bit embarrassed.
He suspected his sister's words were hinting at him.
Gao Xiaoxi ran over and pulled Su Ruochu to sit on the bed.
"Oh, cousin, stop tidying up for now, come chat with me."
Su Ruochu sat down with some reluctance.
"What do you want to talk about?"
"About you and brother-in-law, of course."
Su Ruochu smiled wryly: "Didn't I tell you all about it before? You already know."
"Oh, but last time wasn't detailed enough. Tell me more."
"Like how you two met, how brother-in-law pursued you, how you dated in college..."
Su Ruochu helplessly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, hesitated for a moment, then looked at Gao Xiaoxi.
"Xiaoxi, let me ask you a question, and answer me honestly."
Gao Xiaoxi was startled and immediately became nervous.
"What... what do you want to ask?"
"Don't you think Chen Fan left rather abruptly just now? Could he be angry?"
"Huh?"
Gao Xiaoxi was stunned, looking confused.
"Cousin, why would you think that? Brother-in-law seemed fine, why would he be angry?"
Su Ruochu shook her head, "I'm not sure, but knowing him, he shouldn't have left so quickly."
"Really? Brother-in-law is actually angry?"
Suddenly, Gao Xiaoxi became nervous too.
"Did I say something wrong on the way here that upset brother-in-law?"
"Could it be that brother-in-law is annoyed that we caused him trouble as soon as we arrived in Yunhai?"
Hearing this, Gao Xiaohu also became a bit nervous.
Although he had deliberately acted cool and aloof, not talking to Chen Fan on the way, his heart had gradually begun to accept Chen Fan.
Especially Chen Fan's performance at the station earlier, which had left a huge impact on Gao Xiaohu.
He was just an immature, somewhat rebellious high school student who admired capable and suave manly behavior the most.
In Gao Xiaohu's eyes, Chen Fan's performance at the station was extremely manly.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he actually admired and even aspired to become someone like Chen Fan.
If only it had been him who had dominated the scene at the station.
This guy... was barely worthy of his cousin.
Was it really because he had caused trouble?
Could he really be angry?
Would it affect cousin's relationship with him?
For a moment, the simple-minded boy became nervous.
Swoosh!
Gao Xiaohu suddenly stood up.
"Cousin, do you know where he went?"
"I caused the trouble, I'll go find him and apologize. Don't let him be angry with you."
"Gao Xiaohu, sit down!"
"Do you have to be involved in everything?"
Gao Xiaoxi scolded her brother loudly, then turned to look at Su Ruochu.
"Cousin, could you be overthinking it?"
"On the way back just now, brother-in-law seemed quite happy."
Su Ruochu lowered her head, her expression a mix of worry and insecurity.
"I don't know... I'm wondering if it's because I told him not to be impulsive and not to fight in front of you two in the car, and that made him angry."
Gao Xiaohu immediately nodded.
"Yeah, that makes sense."
"For a man, face is everything."
"Cousin, I don't mean to criticize, but aren't you controlling him too much?"
"As a man, of course he'd be upset being nagged by his woman. My parents are just like..."
"Gao Xiaohu, shut up!"
Gao Xiaoxi stood up angrily.
"Are you trying to make things worse?"
"Say one more word and go back to your own room."
Gao Xiaohu sat down grumpily, his face still showing some defiance as he muttered under his breath.
"It's true though, real men focus on big things and don't sweat the small stuff, how can they be restricted by women..."
Seeing his sister's murderous glare, Gao Xiaohu shrank his neck in fear and quickly shut up.
Su Ruochu sat on the bed without speaking.
But she had actually taken Gao Xiaohu's words to heart.
Men care about their face.
Could it really be because she was too controlling, making him unhappy?
Especially since his subordinate was also in the car at the time...
The more Su Ruochu thought about it, the more nervous she became.
Of course, she felt there was another reason why Chen Fan might be angry.
But she was too embarrassed to tell the two of them.
When they entered the hotel just now, Chen Fan was still smiling.
But after she said she would stay here for a few days to look after these two kids, Chen Fan left.
Could it be because of this?
He had returned to school after the New Year and lived alone in the apartment for so many days.
Every time he called, he openly expressed how much he missed her.
He was lonely.
He hoped she would come back soon to be with him.
He had finally waited for her to return, but now she was going to stay at the hotel.
This... if it were her, she would probably feel disappointed too.
For a moment, Su Ruochu felt guilty and dejected.
Gao Xiaoxi noticed her cousin's mood and tentatively suggested,
"Why don't... you give brother-in-law a call and ask?"
"It's no use just guessing here, we can call and ask. If he's really angry, we can apologize."
Su Ruochu looked up at Gao Xiaoxi, hesitated for a moment, but still took out her phone with the cracked screen from her pocket.
She found Chen Fan's number and dialed.
The room was quiet, all three of them holding their breath, feeling a bit nervous.
Ring ring ring...
But the phone only rang three times before it was hung up.
Oh no.
Gao Xiaoxi and Gao Xiaohu's expressions instantly became tense.
Su Ruochu stared blankly at the phone screen, her left hand on her knee clutching her skirt, slightly tightening her grip.
Just as the three didn't know what to do.
Ding dong.
The doorbell rang.
