I Refuse to be a Supporting Character

Chapter 142: Sister-In-Law



Mu Mingcheng said, Since Grandpas condition is stable, mom and dad, you two should go back and take a rest. Theres no shortage of people here to care for Grandpa.

Once Mu Mingchengs parents exited towards the VIP lounge, Gu Jin gave a sigh of relief.

It would be a lie to say that she wasnt nervous at all when she first met Mu Mingchengs parents. One reason in particular was because of that scandal of Gu Ling and Xu Chenghui from these past two days.

Even if Gu Ling had no blood relation with her, she was still her cousin in name. Xu Chenghui himself is a politician. He must marry a woman whose family background and ability could help him in his political career, meaning his wife not only will be a partner by name; such a partner must come from a family sharing a similar status as him. In any case, it was absolutely impossible for someone like Gu Ling to take up that role, considering that she had no family background, neither was she able to enter into a university.

So, one could imagine what sort of identity Gu Ling had when she stayed with Xu Chenghui.

Its impossible to write the character Gu () in one stroke. Its embarrassing enough that her cousin, even if in name only, became lovers with Xu Chenghui, who was Mu Mingchengs cousin.

Even if everyone knew that their relationship was not a good one, it would not stop people from making irresponsible remarks.

Although Mu Jingzhou and Xu Jie pay little attention to reputation, its inevitable that Gu Jin and Mu Mingcheng would encounter obstacles to establish their relationship.

Fortunately, they all had a good attitude towards Gu Jin even if she didnt know whether it was because they didnt care, or that they havent heard the news. Nevertheless, she felt very flattered for their kindness.

However, there was still a hard battle to fight; Gu Jin stood straight like a soldier who was about to go to the battlefield.

After knocking on the ward door, Mu Mingcheng noticed her condition and kneaded her waist. His voice when speaking to her was calm and reassuring. They wont eat you up with me around.

Gu Jin glanced at him and pulled his hands off her waist. Doesnt he know where they are right now? And still he didnt understand where he should exercise restraint.

The door opened, and a delicate and pretty face appeared.

Cousin, here you are. Xu Jiaoyuns listless eyes lit up when she saw Mu Mingcheng. She turned to look at Gu Jin, who was close to her, smiled cleverly and said, This must be my future sister-in-law, shes truly beautiful.

Hello, you can just call me Gu Jin. Gu Jin smiled gently. You are cousin Jiaoyun. I heard about you before.

Really? Did my cousin mention me? Xu Jiaoyuns eyes shone brighter and the corners of her eyes revealed smiling lines.

From the start of summer vacation, Xu Jiaoyun stayed home for a few days because she was too lazy to go out and play. But before she could really start enjoying herself, who wouldve thought? An astonishing piece of news appeared over the internet. Her old man, Grandpa Xu, was so furious that he ended up faiting, leaving the family in a state of panic. Grandma was old and in poor health, unable to tend to her husband. Since many of their elders and brothers were busy trying to rectify the matter, Xi Jiaoyun volunteered to take care of her elder.

She volunteered to care for him, but what can she do as a pampered young lady? The Xu family already arranged for a nurse to tend to him, so shes simply there to share conversations with her elder..

You could say what you want later, Mu Mingcheng looked across Xu Jiaoyun and into the ward, asking. Wheres Grandpa?

Grandpa has just fallen asleep. As soon as Xu Jiaoyuns voice fell, a cough rang in the ward. Im not sleeping. Let Mingcheng and Miss Gu come in and see me.

Miss Gu?

Gu Jin lowered her eyelids and stared at Mu Mingchengs hand, which was fastened on her shoulder. The arch of her lips widened.

When the old man spoke, Xu Jiaoyun dared not turned a deaf ear. She let go, smiled at Gu Jin and said, Dont worry sister-in-law, Grandpa loves cousin the most. He wont hurt you and will learn to love you in the future.

Gu Jin smiled at her to show her gratitude.

The young lady of Xus family had a kind and naive attitude towards Mu Mingcheng, but how many children in a prominent family as this are truly innocent and naive? Just that sentence alone was to remind Gu Jin that Master Xu cant control Mu Mingcheng and its also tantamount to giving her heart some moral support.
