“Don’t refuse!” Jiang Xun hurriedly explained when he saw that Gu Fangting did not say anything. “We don’t have to be so calculative with each other. Besides, the Gu family and Mo family have given me everything I have now. Without the Gu family cousins and Young Uncle, where would I be today?
“You’re the Gu family’s granddaughter. You have to give me a chance to perform, or the Gu family will think I don’t give you anything. What if they refuse to allow you to marry me?”
Gu Fangting glared at him. She had to admit that she was very fortunate to be with a man with high EQ and who knew how to take care of others.
They had a discussion and decided what else had to be added. It was lunchtime, and they prepared to go for lunch.
“Do you want to go to Jin Jiang Restaurant?”
Ji Mingyue shook her head. “To be honest, I feel like eating fish with pickles.”
Gu Fangting agreed. It was cold today. Although the food at Jin Jiang Restaurant was excellent, it was such an expensive place that most people were not used to it.
They were just out for fun, so they preferred something simpler.
They would go to the fish and pickles restaurant for fish and pickles. Or hotpot would be good too!
They all agreed to go to the fish and pickles restaurant.
They were about to leave when a black car drove over. Zheng Lin got out and walked straight towards them.
Gu Qingyao recognized Zheng Lin and knew she was Zhong Bingyuan’s mother. She had formed a poor impression of Zheng Lin when she met her at the Chen house.
Because she could not sense any joy from this woman who had lost her daughter and then found her again.
Zheng Lin gazed directly at Gu Qingyao, her expression filled with hatred.
Gu Qingyao frowned. Something was amiss with Zheng Lin’s attitude. She could clearly see the resentment in Zheng Lin’s expression.
Since she had made her attitude so clear, Gu Qingyao did not see the need to be polite. She just stood there and did not take the initiative to greet her.
Zheng Lin walked to Gu Qingyao. When she saw that Gu Qingyao did not speak, she asked, “Why don’t you say something? Feeling guilty?”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
She glanced at Zheng Lin. “Based on your current state, I suggest you see a doctor. Judging from your appearance, I guess that you’re doing poorly!”
“You…” Zheng Lin was infuriated. “You know that I’m not in a good state? My daughter is being held captive. Of course I’m not in a good state.”
Gu Qingyao frowned. She did not really understand what Zheng Lin was saying. “Your daughter is being held captive? Yuan Yuan? Has something happened to her?”
Zheng Lin pointed at Gu Qingyao with a shaking finger. “Aren’t you ashamed to ask? You’re the one holding my daughter captive. If you want the Chen sibling’s gratitude, you should take care of them yourself. Why should we Zhongs be the good people? You even use my daughter to threaten us.”
Gu Qingyao’s expression grew chilly. She narrowed her eyes and said dangerously, “What do you mean?”
Ji Mingyue and Gu Fangting had been standing outside. Now they came over and looked at Zheng Lin with displeasure.
They were going to have lunch. The other three had gone to get the car, and they were inside the car. The three women had left the house together and had not yet gotten into the car!
When they saw what was going on, Mo Beihan, Gu Jinhang and Jiang Xun all got out of the car.
Although she was outnumbered, Zheng Lin still maintained her arrogant air and said, “Don’t think I’m afraid of you just because you outnumber me. Yuan Yuan is my daughter. It’s natural that I want to bring her home!”
Gu Qingyao could not be bothered to argue with this unreasonable person. She said bluntly, “If you have something to say, just spit it out. If you don’t want to say it, just get lost. I don’t have time to waste on you!”
With her current status, no one in the capital dared to speak to her like that. She did not have to mince her words!
