Qiao Zhiang was found, Chen Hui and Qiao Yu imdiately went ho.
Upon arriving ho, both were filled with worry, thinking sothing had happened to Qiao Zhiang.
But once ho, they didn’t see Qiao Zhiang for the ti being, so Qiao Yuxian relayed the reason why Qiao Zhiang had secretly slipped away.
Then Qiao Yu’s face turned livid with anger.
Chen Hui searched the living room for the ruler she had hidden away.
While both were just about to lose it, Qiao Lech told them that Qiao Yuxian’s boyfriend would bring Qiao Zhiang back and pay them a visit.
Both of them were montarily stunned.
Then imdiately tidied up their appearances.
Chen Hui pinned up her hair and rushed upstairs to quickly change her clothes, then ca down to clean the living room.
During this ti, Qiao Yu stood dazedly in the living room.
Qiao Lech went to help Chen Hui tidy up the spotless living room.
Qiao Yuxian saw her dad standing idly, after a while, walked to his side and waved her hand in front of him saying, "Dad?"
Qiao Yu ca to his senses, looking at her, paused for a few seconds then said, "Is it Gu Yanjing?"
"Um..." Qiao Yuxian elongated the sound, then admitted, "Yes."
"Tsk—" Qiao Yu furrowed his brows.
Upon hearing his reaction, Qiao Yuxian quickly said, "I initiated it, wasn’t coerced, he treats very well."
Because of her brief explanation, Qiao Yu swallowed back the words he was about to say.
After a while, he asked, "Does Old Sir Gu know?"
Qiao Yuxian glanced at him and then nodded.
"Did the old sir make things difficult for you?" Qiao Yu asked again.
Qiao Yuxian noticed a hint of curiosity on his face: "Dad, do you know sothing?"
"Ahem." Qiao Yu cleared his throat, looked elsewhere and said, "I heard your grandfather talking about the Gu Family. I don’t know the specifics, but from his tone, it seems our two families don’t get along very well. The rift seems quite serious."
"Oh." Qiao Yuxian responded, thinking to herself: It’s not that the two families don’t get along, it’s that the two family’s old sirs don’t get along!
Really don’t get along!
A vendetta of a taken wife! The betrayal of a wife!
If it weren’t for various reasons from the Gu Family, her grandfather wouldn’t have been able to marry!
Actually, she had heard of Gu Yanjing’s na when she was very young.
She was too young to rember it clearly.
She only rembered that one day, so guests ca. After the guests left, she heard her grandfather and grandmother ntion the na Gu Yanjing.
Then she casually asked who Gu Yanjing was.
Just as her grandmother got up to go to the kitchen for so water, her grandfather furtively watched her grandmother’s back and quietly gritted his teeth to say.
"A little bastard born of a big bastard."
Qiao Yuxian was so young at that ti that she had long forgotten this incident.
But for so inexplicable reason, she recently recalled it again.
Mr. Gu was completely unaware that when she was seven or eight, the four words ’little bastard’ in Qiao Yuxian’s mind were synonymous with the three words Gu Yanjing.
"No, they’re all very good to ." Qiao Yuxian thought of the ’little bastard’ and chuckled internally.
"What about the other mbers of the Gu Family?" Qiao Yu repeatedly pondered these matters, "The Gu Family is such a large family."
"Gu Yanjing told not to worry about them." Qiao Yuxian replied.
Qiao Yu nodded and after a while added, "Even if you don’t need to worry, you must be careful. Gu Yanjing having a girlfriend ans he will have his own succession in the future. To put it frankly, there are many who wish for his downfall, and equally many who hope he doesn’t have heirs."
Qiao Yuxian’s eyelashes fluttered lightly.
"Being with him ans you’re sharing the sa risks," Qiao Yu said, "Or perhaps you’re bearing greater risks than him. They can’t touch Gu Yanjing, can’t take his life, and if pushed to the limit, they will find ways to ensure he doesn’t have heirs. And the first target will be you."
"Dad, I know," Qiao Yuxian responded.
"But it’s good that you’re not married yet. You haven’t gotten involved in the Gu Family’s assets and they’re more likely to try to disrupt your relationship, perhaps temporarily not endangering your life." Qiao Yu continued.
Qiao Yuxian: "......"
Qiao Yuxian remained silent, fearing to provoke Qiao Yu, she didn’t dare to say anything.
Qiao Yu was lost in thought, failing to notice her slightest unease, and after a while, murmured another sentence: "How could you fall for him."
Qiao Yuxian raised her eyes and looked at him.
Qiao Yu glanced at her too, then, feeling troubled, went to help Chen Hui sort things out.
Qiao Yuxian raised her brows and smiled slightly, thinking.
Gu Yanjing is great.
...
More than an hour later, Gu Yanjing arrived at the Qiao Family with Qiao Zhiang.
Upon hearing the sound of the car outside, Qiao Yuxian was the first to leave the villa and went outside.
Gu Yanjing stood by the car waiting for Qiao Zhiang to leisurely get out.
Alongside, ng Yan and Shang Chen were taking things out of the car.
Qiao Yuxian walked to Gu Yanjing’s side, both watching as Qiao Zhiang dawdled about not getting out of the car.
Gu Yanjing turned to look at her.
Qiao Yuxian looked at Qiao Zhiang and smiled, "Yo, scared now?"
Qiao Zhiang pursed his small lips, glanced at her, and called out feebly, "Sister."
Qiao Yuxian stepped closer, patted his head, and grabbed the collar of his shirt, pulling him off the car.
His feet barely touched the ground when Qiao Yu and Chen Hui ca out to greet them.
Qiao Zhiang was so scared he imdiately hid behind Qiao Yuxian.
Feeling unsafe behind Qiao Yuxian, he hid behind Gu Yanjing.
Qiao Yu and Chen Hui both gave Qiao Zhiang a glance, seeing he was fine, they paid him no mind.
Qiao Yu’s face remained expressionless, while Chen Hui having pinned up her hair neatly was very attentive, smiling gently, "Mr. Gu."
Gu Yanjing looked at them and said, "Uncle, Aunt. Just call Yanjing."
Qiao Yu looked at him without speaking.
Chen Hui smiled, not calling his na either, inviting them into the villa: "Co in, don’t stay outside, it’s quite chilly."
Gu Yanjing gave a slight nod, then looked over at Qiao Yuxian.
Qiao Yuxian pulled him into the villa.
ng Yan and Shang Chen followed with the stuff.
Qiao Yu and Chen Hui were furthest behind, both pulling back Qiao Zhiang who was tightly following Gu Yanjing.
Chen Hui grabbed his backpack and yanked him back.
Then, tacitly, both simultaneously smacked him on each side of his buttocks.
"Ouch!" Qiao Zhiang cried out.
All the people in front turned around.
Again, Chen Hui smacked Qiao Zhiang multiple tis, while pretending to fuss, "This child is so untidy, his clothes get dirty after just one day."
Then she looked up ahead at the others, "It’s okay, it’s okay. You guys go inside, it’s cold out."
Qiao Yu stood aside watching Qiao Zhiang, warning him not to make any more sounds.
Qiao Zhiang pursed his little lips, his face almost turning into a bitter gourd, not daring to make a sound.
Qiao Yuxian glanced at him, smiled a bit, and pulled Gu Yanjing into the villa.
Leaving only Little Zhi Ang alone to bear the brunt.
He thought with Gu Yanjing around, at least they’d hold back in front of a guest, and wait to settle accounts once the guest leaves.
Unexpectedly, he received a "beating" the mont they entered the door.
