Zhuangzhuang was frightened yesterday and felt a bit unwell, so Ji Ying stayed at ho to help out and wasn’t surprised to see Fang Yue’s arrival.
She’s also a mother, and if her child was wandering sowhere out there, she would definitely be worried too. A child is like flesh that has fallen off your body, how could you not miss them?
According to Fang Yue’s introduction, Gu Mingcheng is Xu Nianhua’s younger brother. Gu Mingcheng’s clear gaze made Fang Yue like him a lot, so she kept offering him the snacks she had dried herself.
There were sweet and sour dried bayberries, dried bamboo shoots, and pickled vinegar ginger.
"Delicious," Gu Mingcheng was very generous with his praise, trying everything and earnestly complinting each one.
Fang Yue looked at Gu Mingcheng trying to please Ji Ying, and felt uncomfortable. As a mother, she’s well aware of her son’s disposition, and since she favored Gu Mingzhu, Gu Mingcheng wasn’t particularly close to her.
"Nianhua, your dad is planning to build a new pharmaceutical factory, so he doesn’t have ti to co. He specifically asked to bring you so delicious food." Fang Yue changed the topic and handed over what she’d brought, all nicely boxed and looking very high-end.
When ntioning the new pharmaceutical factory, Fang Yue instinctively glanced at Ji Ying. So what if they have a Chili Sauce Factory and a furniture factory? Their family is building a pharmaceutical factory.
"Last ti, you agreed to co ho during sumr vacation, but you didn’t. I know school keeps you busy, so I didn’t co looking for you. Yesterday, I heard from Mingcheng that you were back, so I specifically brought Mingcheng to pick you up." Fang Yue smiled, but her words carried a hint of reproach, implying that Xu Nianhua had promised to return to the Gu Family but didn’t keep her word.
"Nianhua just ca back, that day she went to visit her grandfather," Ji Ying imdiately explained. "Her grandfather is getting old and wanted to see her. People are strange; the more ti you spend together, the deeper the feelings."
"I was planning to settle the family matters first, then let her stay at the Gu Family for a few days. After all, you are always Nianhua’s biological parents." Ji Ying smiled warmly as she spoke, her face full of kindness.
Xu Nianhua secretly gave Ji Ying a thumbs up in her heart. The mother who used to get scolded by Liu Sani could now return the comnts without a trace. Didn’t you see Fang Yue’s unnatural expression?
"Second Sister, why don’t you co ho with us today? Mom and Dad have already prepared your room, and Big Sister heard you were coming ho, so she specially had the bedding laid out in the sun." Gu Mingcheng spoke, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Yes, Nianhua, we all really want you to co ho," Fang Yue said, her words sounding most sincere.
Xu Nianhua lowered her eyes. She resisted the Gu Family, but now wasn’t the ti to fall out. She said, "In a few days, my dad’s birthday is coming up. I’ll celebrate it with him first, and then I’ll go to South City."
Gu Mingcheng said nothing, but the disappointnt in his eyes was obvious. However, since it was her foster father’s birthday, he couldn’t exactly say she shouldn’t celebrate it.
Fang Yue’s face didn’t look good. Why did it feel like she was the daughter, and Nianhua was the mother?
Was she begging her to co back?
"Nianhua, it’s no big deal, just a small birthday. Why don’t you go to South City first? Your dad won’t be mad." Ji Ying, seeing the awkwardness, quickly tried to smooth things over.
"No, I want to celebrate dad’s birthday." Xu Nianhua slyly clung to Ji Ying’s arm.
"Second Sister, can I stay and celebrate uncle’s birthday?" Gu Mingcheng, unwilling to leave, shalessly asked.
Fang Yue’s eyes were sharp enough to throw daggers. She had co today to take Xu Nianhua back to South City, but not only did she not take her back, her son was staying instead?
What’s so good about this lousy place?
