Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Hongkang sensed sothing was amiss and imdiately felt a strong sense of unease.
In Gu Qingluans eyes, a hint of severity flashed, and she spoke each word slowly, She helped soone kidnap my son!
What? Gu Hongkangs body swayed dramatically, and a look of profound astonishnt appeared on his face.
Nowadays, in Tianjing City, almost everyone knew that Gu Qingluans son was her Achilles heel!
Has Gu Qiner gone mad?
She actually kidnapped Gu Qingluans son!
Gu Hongkang hadnt anticipated that Gu Qiner would be so audacious as to commit such a grave mistake.
In an instant, a cold sweat covered Gu Hongkangs back.
He had initially thought that Gu Qiner had just made a minor mistake. Now, reflecting on it, he had been summoned to this place for such a long ti, and sothing seed amiss.
During this period, Gu Qingluan was likely out rescuing her son!
And now her son had been found?
Gu Hongkangs pupils quivered slightly. Is the child unhard?
How could he be unhard? Gu Qingluans face darkened instantly. They tied Xiaonan to the mountainside and surrounded him with a swarm of snakes! Do you think hes alright?
Gu Hongkang was taken aback by the sudden change in her tone, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. I Ill go check on the child. I dont know which child it is, Xiaonan or Yuanxi?
Theres no need to check right now. Xiaonan has just returned and has been traumatized. Its not advisable for him to see anyone, Gu Qingluan rejected Gu Hongkangs suggestion.
Gu Hongkang furrowed his brows in contemplation.
He couldnt see anyone, and he wasnt certain how much of what Gu Qingluan said was true.
The authenticity of the childs disappearance was beyond his doubt, but as for the severity of the consequences, he remained skeptical.
After all, he had already experienced Gu Qingluans cunning.
Regardless, 1 am the childs grandfather, and I should visit him.
Gu Qingluan looked at him mockingly. Xiaonan currently doesnt want to see other mbers of the Gu family, including you, of course.
Gu Hongkangs breath hitched.
That was his grandson!
However, considering the current relationship between the two sides.
He could only swallow his bitterness.
After a long pause, he spoke slowly, Tell , what will it take for you to calm down?
He wasnt a fool. She had said so much; it was clear she wanted to negotiate terms.
Gu Qingluan spoke calmly, That depends on Old Master Gus sincerity.
Gu Hongkangs heart sank.
Her sincerity?
It was clear that she had the final say!
Now, with the Gu family in financial straits, he had to use his personal wealth to subsidize the familys expenses.
And now she wanted him to pay again.
Gu Hongkang felt like his heart was being twisted and squeezed, causing him both pain and anguish, making him extrely uncomfortable.
But what could he do?
He was the one who had made the mistake of bringing Gu Qiner to the celebration in a mont of confusion.
Gu Qiner made a mistake, and Gu Hongkang could only be implicated.
In the end, Gu Hongkang reluctantly handed over one-third of his private treasury to satisfy Gu Qingluan.
Gu Hongkang felt utterly disgusted.bender
He had co to enjoy a banquet, but not only had he failed to improve his relationship with Gu Qingluan, but he also hadnt earned a single point of respect from the world. Instead, he lost so many years worth of savings. Could it get any worse?
After handing over the items to Gu Qingluan, Gu Hongkang walked away with a stern face. His dark, wide robe rustled as he walked as if he could take flight at any mont.
He didnt even bother asking about Gu Qiner, showing a complete disregard for her well-being.
At this mont, the front courtyard banquet had also dispersed.
When people saw him passing by with a grim expression, they couldnt help but feel curious.
Wasnt Old Master Gu just called to the back earlier? What did they talk about? It doesnt look very pleasant!
Haha, how could it be pleasant? Its surprising they didnt co to blows!
I suppose Old Master Gu from the Gu family tried to establish a connection, but isnt it a bit too late for that?
Indeed, its easy to provide extra help in good tis, but its much more challenging to offer assistance when its truly needed. Bla it on the Gu family for being cold-hearted. If they hadnt acted so decisively in the past, they wouldnt have beco a laughingstock now, and even Guardian Princess would have paid attention.
The people chatted in groups of threes and fours as they walked.
With Gu Hongkangs sharp hearing, he naturally couldnt ignore those unpleasant remarks.
He noted down all the offensive comnts.
Having just been rcilessly fleeced by Gu Qingluan, he had no intention of causing trouble here. If he did, he would have to face Gu Qingluan again later Seeing Gu Qingluan now gave him a headache!
On the other hand, Gu Qingluan, having taken the advantage, was in a better mood as she went to find her sons.
Upon learning that Han Xiao was dining with them, she went straight to their location.
When she entered the room, Xiaonan and Yuanxi were already stuffing their mouths with food.
Mother, co and eat! Its delicious!
Gu Xiaonan, upon hearing footsteps, raised his head and saw her. He waved the braised pork knuckles in his hand.
Seeing her energetic son, Gu Qingluan smiled and responded as she approached the table and took a seat.
Han Xiao sat on a stool, significantly taller than everyone else. He held a wine glass in one hand, and his smile was wild and unrestrained. Little Qingluan, if you dont want to get married, you can still change your mind now.. Why not co stay at Uncle Hans place for a while?
