MORE THAN ENOUGH (PART 13)

"I don't think that will be a good idea." Ge Chen said. Xue Lin gazed at him in awe. She didn't think her scolding would work that well.

"What do you mean?" Gu Xiali asked while frowning.

Ge Chen elaborately told her, "We want to go back to our home as soon as possible. It'll be better if the wedding reception is held within three weeks and Lin doesn't need etiquette and dancing lessons. She is fine the way she is."

Gu Xiali's frown deepened. "What are you talking about? How can I arrange a grand wedding reception party in three weeks? Also, a noble lady must learn etiquette and dancing. She is the daughter-in-law of the Su Family."

Ge Chen calmly said, "Don't just pressure someone to do anything only because they are part of your family or they might run away from you."

Gu Xiali didn't think her usually quiet grandson would talk back at her. "Are you saying you will defy my orders?"

Ge Chen coolly replied, "I have no reason to obey your orders."

Gu Xiali paused and narrowed her eyes. Then, she commented, "…Xiao Chen, you have changed." After that, her eyes landed on the woman sitting beside him.

Ge Chen took Xue Lin's right hand and said, "I didn't change. It's only I didn't need to talk back before but now I do."

Xue Lin couldn't stay silent anymore. She said, "I told him beforehand that I don't want to waste time here. I don't have a job. I know if I don't work, I won't be facing an economic crisis but I want to work. I feel restless if I can't do anything. And etiquette doesn't make a person a human nor it gives a person general knowledge. Whatever I have to know to survive in this world I already know. I don't want to waste time on etiquette. It is nothing but a luxury for brainless people who have nothing to do."

"…" Gu Xiali wasn't sure if she was insulting her or the rich society.

Su Fengfei coughed. To him, Xue Lin's words made sense. He said, "Let it be, dear. Young people are smart. They know what to do and when to do. You don't' need to force them to do something which they don't want to do."

Gu Xiali sighed. "I had a dream that I would make Xiao Chen's wedding perfect."

Ge Chen promised calmly, "It will be perfect."

Gu Xiali couldn't be as calm as her grandson. She said, "Do you know how much time it takes to make an extraordinary wedding gown?"

"Lin won't be wearing any wedding gown. She already has one wedding gown." Ge Chen already decided everything beforehand. He didn't need another person's opinion. After all, his wife said to do whatever he wanted to do.

"Don't talk about it. I already saw the picture." Gu Xiali didn't want to think about that cheap gown. "If she wears it at the reception party, the Su Family will be humiliated in front of everyone."

Ge Chen told her, "She won't wear a white gown. It will be a traditional Chinese wedding reception. I've already ordered her dress and jewelry. They will come within two weeks. You have nothing to worry about."

"!!!" Su Fengfei and his wife were both stunned. They didn't think Ge Chen would think this through.

Gu Xiali excitedly asked, "What about the venue? Did you choose it as well?"

Ge Chen denied, "No, I will leave it to you. I took care of our clothes. You can take care of the rest."

Gu Xiali was relieved. "I-I see… Alright, leave everything else to me." It was her dream to organize her only grandson's wedding reception.

"Alright, you have so much to do. We won't bother you anymore." Ge Chen stood up with Xue Lin still grabbing her hand and left with her.

Gu Xiali finished her tea and commented, "This child suddenly grew up after marriage." Her eyes were lingering on the door.

Su Fengfei said, "Because the girl he married is special."

Gu Xiali shook her head. "I don't know how can a small girl like her have a sharp tongue. Even a sharp knife will lose in front of her."

Su Fengfei laughed aloud. "Ahahaha! That's very true." He had no reason to argue about that.

Gu Xiali frowned and chided her husband. "What are you slacking off for? Start making a guest list.

Su Fengfei sighed. "How can you be so cold? We didn't have enough time to gossip after you came back."

"There is no time left. We have to organize the party in three weeks. I'm going to start looking for the venue." Gu Xiali took her cell phone and dialed some numbers and called someone.

"…" Su Fengfei was hurt. His wife was ignoring him. He felt lonely. He wished he could play Go with Xue Lin. 'Since she is smart, she can play this game as well.' That's what he thought.
