It was okay for him to lose to his wife ten thousand times when they were in private, which was for fun.

However, in front of the old man, if he really lost, then he would lose his reputation. The old man would definitely laugh at him.

In fact, Gu Ye was quite strong, and arm wrestling also had its own tricks. When Gu Ye was in Team B, he specialized in wrestling with others.

Chu Qiao and him were in a stalemate for several minutes, but Chu Qiao was still the one who was slightly stronger. She waited for a few minutes before she pretended to lose.

“I lost, you’re so strong.”

Chu Qiao shook her wrist, her expression was very sincere, her admiring gaze almost made Gu Ye fly into the sky. He was so happy that he was on cloud nine*.

*On cloud nine : emphasizing that they are very happy, extreme happiness.

The old man was so angry that he turned his head.

Just now, these young couples were flirting with each other. He definitely saw it. Hmph, cheating under his nose, it’s really infuriating him.

However, after the old man lost, his impression of Chu Qiao had changed a lot. Her appearance looked like a delicate flower in a greenhouse, but in fact, she was quite strong. She could even plow the fields. It was obvious that she had suffered hardship since she was a child. So she should be able to handle things.

As for what Old Mrs. He said to him before, the old man didn’t believe even a word from her now. That Old woman of the He family definitely didn’t tell the truth. Obviously, she was deliberately belittling Chu Qiao. This old woman was not a good person.

Lin Yulan came out of the room with an extra jewelry box in her hand, and she handed it to Chu Qiao. “This is the jewelry that was worn by Xiao Ye’s waipo*. You can keep it from now on, and have a good life with Xiao Ye.”

*Waipo (外婆) : maternal grandmother.

“I can’t receive it. It would be better for you to keep it.”

Chu Qiao refused to accept it. She and Gu Ye were only fake couples, so how could she accept such precious jewelry.

In her previous life, she saw Zhu Yuzhen wearing several pieces of particularly expensive jewelry. Even if she didn’t know much about jewelry, she could see that it was extraordinary.

She heard Gu Jianshe and Zhu Yuzhen talk about the origin of the jewelry, which were swindled from Lin Yulan’s hand. Before Gu Ye’s waigong’s* death, he was the jeweler of the largest jewelry store building in Shanghai, and he had superb craftsmanship.

*Waigong (外公) : Maternal grandfather.

All of the jewelry that were worn by Gu Ye’s waipo were all exquisite and high quality. But Lin Yulan lost all of them.

It was no wonder that the relationship between Gu Ye and Lin Yulan was so bad. Lin Yulan, as his biological mother, was really a failure.

Then Gu Ye took it over and stuffed it into Chu Qiao’s hand. “It was originally for you, keep it.”

Waipo’s jewelry belonged to his wife. So in this life, it was only Chu Qiao who qualified to take it, and even Lin Yulan was not qualified.

Chu Qiao did not refuse anymore. She should keep it well and return it after she and Gu Ye were separated.

Old Mr. Gu asked about the time of the wedding banquet. He was going to invite some of his old friends.

“It’s on the eighth of next month, I have booked the venue.” Gu Ye was a little annoyed.

In fact, he wanted it to be faster, but Jinjiang Hotel’s business was so good and booming. Even if he knew some people who work there, it could only be arranged on the 8th of next month.

There were still ten days left. It was too painful, and difficult, as one day seemed like a year.

Old Mr. Gu frowned, it was too hasty, so he said, “It’s too hasty. We can wait until the weather is cooler to do it. We also need to prepare the bride price and dowry.”

“I can’t wait, I have already prepared the bride price.”

Gu Ye couldn’t even wait for ten days, so how could it be possible for him to wait until the weather cooled down. He even wished that he could do the banquet now and marry Chu Qiao.

Chu Qiao also said, “There’s no need for the bride price, I also don’t have a dowry either.”

He Jihong definitely would not prepare a dowry for her, and since she only married for a fake marriage, she naturally felt embarrassed to ask for the bride price. She even felt that it was too wasteful to do the banquet.

Old Mr. Gu glanced at her incredibly beautiful face, which looked like it was not as big as his palm. Her eyes were so bright, and she looked so obedient.

Then he looked at his youngest son, who was smiling so much like a fool, and the anger in his heart became stronger.
