Gu Xinghaoâs words were ingenious. Immediately, the tense atmosphere in the room vanished.
The confrontational words that Zhuang Nainai had wanted to say to Li Yufeng were stuck in her throat. She turned to look at Gu Xinghao. This was the first time she felt that Gu Xinghao could be this adorable.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She pursed her lips and glanced at Si Zhengting, only to see his initial aloof expression take a warm turn.
Meanwhile, Ding Mengya... It seemed like she had not expected this to happen as a tinge of bewilderment flashed across her eyes.
Li Yufengâs expression immediately became dark. She had racked her brains to sow discord between Ding Mengya and Zhuang Nainai and make them feel more distant toward each other.
However, now, all her efforts that day had gone down the drain because of Gu Xinghaoâs words!
After taking a few deep breaths, she managed to suppress the fury in her. She looked at Gu Xinghao. âYou are just a kid, what do you know? I know you mean well for your sister, so donât spout nonsense.â
As soon as Gu Xinghao heard this, he said immediately, âPfft~ Who cares about her? Iâm only speaking the truth. Xingshan has said that you and she came over this morning. But isnât she a tad too dumb? She doesnât want money... Sigh. Next time, when I look for a wife, Iâm also going to find someone who loves me and not our familyâs fortune...â
Li Yufeng: â...!!â
At this moment, Li Yufeng did not have anything she could say to cut him off.
Hence, everyone listened to Gu Xinghao. Meanwhile, Zhuang Nainaiâs gaze was already fixed on Li Yufeng.
Pursing her lips, she had wanted to say something but she saw Si Zhengting shake his head at her.
Li Yufeng turned around. Seeing how the three of them were silent, she heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. âSee, Xinghao has said this, and Xingshan has said that. I already told you that my Qingyan isnât the one asking for shares. Do you believe me now, In-Law?â
Her smile looked so forceful that even Ding Mengya could tell how fake it was.
The three of them were glancing at each other. At last, Gu Xinghao could not take it anymore. âMother, letâs go home.â
Upon bidding the others farewell, Li Yufeng walked to the door with a stiff expression while Gu Xinghao nagged as he walked, âThis is so troublesome. Canât you just talk about this over the phone? I should have just stayed at home and played a few more rounds of my game. Do you think itâs fun to drive to and fro?â
Li Yufeng: â...!!â
If sheâd known this was going to happen, she would have rather walked here than to let him drive her!
Li Yufeng was so angry that her chest was pounding. She refused to look at Gu Xinghao and walked out of the house. She felt that if she were to take Gu Xinghaoâs car home, she would be angered to her death.
Gu Xinghao started the engine of the car. Upon seeing Li Yufeng, he immediately started driving and chased after her. âMother, get in the car!â
Li Yufeng glared at him viciously. âIâll just hire a cab!â
âWhy? Thereâs a car here and yet you want to hire a cab?â
âBecause... my heart is hurting.â
âDo you need me to send you to the hospital?â
âNo, I just have to not see you!â
Gu Xinghao scratched his head, not knowing how he had offended her. He simply said, âAlright, then. Iâll leave first. My team members are still waiting for me to go back and snatch armors!â
Li Yufeng: â...!!â
Then, without even waiting for Li Yufengâs reply, he stepped on the pedal and sped off.
Li Yufeng: â...!!â
You could have at least sent me to the main road! Donât you know that this villaâs area is so big that you need one hour to walk out?!
