DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 157 - A Lady
Gu Yuehuan noticed the woman's poised demeanor, a clear indication that she hailed from outside the village. How could she possibly know the young mistress of a wealthy family? Shaking her head, she replied, “I'm not aware of that. I simply think you look very lovely, Big Sister.”
Her words elicited a chuckle from the woman. “How can I be your sister? I'm already old enough to be an auntie.”
Gu Yuehuan sincerely complimented her, saying, “It's not that you're not really good-looking. It's just that calling you ‘auntie' makes me feel old.”
“You girls have such sweet tongues. Given my age, I can indeed be your aunt,” Lee Shuyuan laughed while listening. “If I'm not mistaken, you must be quite young, right? You're such a beautiful young lady.”
“Yes, indeed. I'm 18 this year.”
Lee Shuyuan's eyes brightened upon hearing this. It seemed like an uncanny coincidence. She inquired curiously, “You're 18 this year? That makes you the same age as my youngest son. He's also 18. What month were you born in?”
“I was born on June.”
Lee Shuyuan found this coincidence truly remarkable. She was already quite fond of the young girl she had just met. “I took a liking to you the moment I saw you, dear. You and my son share such an astonishing connection. He was born in June too.” contemporary romance
Gu Yuehuan found herself taken aback by this revelation. It seemed like an astonishing coincidence.
Lee Shuyuan was known for her discerning gaze, but her encounter with the young heiress from a wealthy family made her break her usual habit of avoiding people, especially those who caught her eye right away. This girl had an immediate charm about her, and Lee Shuyuan couldn't resist striking up a conversation.
“This train is headed to the northern part of the city. Are you both headed in the same direction?”
Gu Yuehuan nodded as she enjoyed her apple. She had formed a favorable impression of this lady. It was hard to explain, but she simply felt at ease with the person before her. She replied, “Yes, my partner and I have some business to attend to in the North City. What about you, Auntie?”
“You really shouldn't. It's embarrassing to hear you say that. My youngest son is around your age. You can just call me Auntie.” Lee Shuyuan adjusted her clothing, lowering her head to arrange her scarf. “My family resides in the North City. I'm actually a native of this city. I've been feeling bored lately, so I decided to go out for a change. I'm just returning now.”
Upon hearing these words, Gu Yuehuan couldn't help but perceive Lee Shuyuan as a refined lady.
With her demeanor in the 1980s, it was evident that she hailed from a wealthy family and was a local of the North City. The North City was the capital, where housing prices were not exorbitant, yet owning property was common. Especially in the second ring, it wouldn't be long before the value of their homes appreciated significantly. They could earn substantial income through rental properties.
This was a rich woman.
Contemplating this, Gu Yuehuan also considered her own circumstances. If she were to pursue studies in the Northern City in the future, she would need to invest in a house, even if she had the means.
“Miss, I forgot to ask for your name.”
“I'm Gu Yuehuan.”
When learning that her last name was Gu and recognizing that there were no known relatives with that surname, Lee Shuyuan assumed they likely didn't have a prior acquaintance. Familiarity often left a positive impression.
“I'm Lee Shuyuan. You have a lovely name; it sounds quite charming.”
Lee Shuyuan noticed that Gu Yuehuan's boyfriend was nowhere to be seen, so she curiously scanned the area. “You mentioned you came here with your boyfriend, right? Where is he? I haven't had the chance to meet him yet.” freeweb .co m
Gu Yuehuan, upon hearing this, intended to introduce her boyfriend to this lady. However, when she turned her head to their bed, she was perplexed. Wasn't he right here? Why was he suddenly absent?
