Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets novel Chapter 362

Chapter 362: Chapter 362: Let’s Get Married

"Long time no see." Qin Anyu’s expression was indifferent. Since the changes she made last summer, not only did her appearance undergo significant changes, but she had also thrown herself into her career for the past year, transforming her spirit as well.

"An Yu, shall we find a place to sit down?" Chu Xuan asked.

Qin Anyu thought for a moment and said, "How about noon? I have to go to the store now."

"Okay." Chu Xuan agreed, his gaze falling on Tang Yue standing beside them. Living in the same place as Qin Anyu, Tang Yue seemed even more outstanding in appearance. Chu Xuan asked, "An Yu, aren’t you going to introduce us?"

"Tang Yue, the god-sister I acknowledge," Qin Anyu said, casually wrapping her arm around Tang Yue’s waist and deliberately mentioned, "What a pity, my god-sister is already engaged."

"Sister An Yu," Tang Yue called out cooperatively.

Qin Anyu introduced him, "This is someone we grew up with in our compound, also a classmate, Chu Xuan."

Having talked with Tang Yue about some past events yesterday, and now Chu Xuan appeared today, Qin Anyu was surprised but had long been psychologically prepared to see him.

Qin Anhao had reminded her before that Chu Xuan would be returning soon.

"Hello," Tang Yue greeted coolly.

Chu Xuan didn’t ask further and very gentlemanly offered to take Qin Anyu to the store.

Qin Anyu thought about it and didn’t refuse.

"Sister An Yu, I’m going to school now." Tang Yue greeted Qin Anyu and left.

In the car.

"An Yu, Tang Yue looks barely twenty years old, and she’s already engaged?"

"Yeah, her fiancée is Mo Siyu. You should know him," Qin Anyu replied without looking away, leaning back in her seat.

"Mo Siyu, the one Mr. Qin values most? He’s actually interested in a young girl?" Chu Xuan’s words carried a hint of surprise.

Qin Anyu pursed her lips and said, "Xiao Yue is nineteen, and they have known each other for many years."

"Oh." Chu Xuan asked a few questions and then dropped the subject.

Chu Xuan left after dropping Qin Anyu off at the shop, and both behaved like ordinary friends.

Imperial Restaurant.

Chu Xuan followed Qin Anyu to a window seat in the restaurant, flanked by greenery. Although not as enclosed as a private booth, it provided a degree of privacy.

The soothing light music and upscale décor made it still the most fashionable place even at the end of the 1980s.

"An Yu, let’s get married," Chu Xuan said, diving straight into the subject just after ordering the food.

Qin Anyu, who had just taken a sip of water, nearly spit it out, choking until her eyes reddened, and she looked at Chu Xuan in shock.

Chu Xuan continued, "Our grandfathers are getting old, and my dad has been urging us to marry. Besides, after all these years, it’s time we got married."

"No," Qin Anyu refused, saying, "You and Jiang Wei are the real couple. How could you bear to disappoint Jiang Wei who has waited for you all these years?"

Qin Anyu frowned and said, "I know, because of me, you’ve rejected Jiang Wei these years, but Jiang Wei has always been waiting for you."

"An Yu, she and I, we have no fate," Chu Xuan lowered his gaze.

Qin Anyu didn’t believe it and said, "You two were so in love back then, how can there be no fate? I’ve heard that Jiang Wei has never married."

"Anyu, you’re right. You should marry someone you like. Who is he to force you into marriage?" Chu Hong was deliberately stirring things up.

Chu Xuan’s face darkened as he said, "Xiao Ling, the matter between your Sister An Yu and me..."

"So you just want an alliance with the Qin Family, right? Not just Qin Anyu, even Qin Caihua you’d marry, wouldn’t you?" Chu Hong sneered.

Chu Xuan’s face was sullen.

Sitting aside, Qin Anyu found herself in a dilemma, not sure whether to speak up or remain silent. Instead, she simply buried her head in her food, pretending she hadn’t heard anything.

The atmosphere at the dinner table became increasingly awkward.

Chu Hong, utterly indifferent, continued, "That matter with you and Jiang Wei, although covert, do you really think it’s completely unnoticed by everyone?"

Chu Xuan’s eyes flashed, but his expressionless face remained inscrutable.

"Chu Xuan, if you want to marry someone, at least show your true feelings," Chu Hong concluded, then mentioned a place name. Chu Xuan took a deep breath, said he had to deal with something to Qin Anyu, and excused himself to leave.

Qin Anyu looked at Chu Hong with admiration and asked out of curiosity, "Does he still have contact with Jiang Wei?"

"Qin Anyu, you’re so naive," Chu Hong sneered, "He never seriously wanted to marry you."

"Chu Hong, I’m three years older than you." Qin Anyu held up three fingers and said, "Let me tell you, I never wanted to marry him either. Besides, who says marrying him equals forming an alliance? Grandfather is grandfather, and I am me."

"Tch," Chu Hong said disdainfully, "You’re a Qin, can you even change that?"

Qin Anyu glared at him angrily and then continued to eat her meal sulkily, stuffing her mouth with food and muttering, "That’s not true, Chu Xuan isn’t like that."

Chu Hong rolled his eyes at her.
