Chapter 173 No One Else But You Can Be the Daughter-in-Law of the Gu Family

The phone rang for a long time and no one answered. It was already half past nine. In normal cases, Gu Nianbin would have been home now. A long beep came from her phone. Hearing that, Du Xiaoxian panicked, but she didn't want others to see it. So she hid it behind a smile and said, "Perhaps the road is slippery because of the snow. So, he will be back late."

This was the only reason she could think of. Ah Ling looked at Du Huayue and said, "Yes, it should be because of the slippery road. After all, it is night and the road is slippery. He would be back late. Let's go inside and warm up. Why don't we eat while waiting?"

Du Huayue hesitated. "I might as well go first. You girls go inside. There aren't many people around here. Don't come out again."

"Brother Ah Yue, don't leave." Du Xiaoxian said, "The buses are out of service now, and there are only a few taxis. You can stay here for one night and wait until tomorrow morning to leave."
