Chapter 10: Reaching a Consensus

Gu Lian did not go to the ward again. Instead, he returned to his usual study room.

He had to see how the Gu family had developed in the past three years.

Su Mei returned to the living room. Mo Xue had not left yet, and Father Gu stayed in the living room as a dutiful host to serve tea. Su Mei had just reached the living room door and heard Mo Xue’s voice before she went in.

“Uncle Gu, why don’t Little Yu and I take care of Brother Gu Lian together? Little Yu grew up in the countryside. Sometimes, she might be rough and hurt Brother Gu Lian. I grew up with Brother Gu Lian and am more familiar with him. It’s easier to take care of him.”

Mo Xue looked at Father Gu, who did not say anything, and continued, “A few days ago, I brought Little Yu to visit you guys, but you and Auntie were not at home. Little Yu left without waiting. Perhaps she still doesn’t accept me. Therefore, I also want to take this opportunity to communicate with Little Yu and use love…”

“It’s okay. My Gu family doesn’t lack money. We can afford to hire caregivers, we won’t trouble Miss Mo. Oh, no, we should call you Miss Shen now.” Su Mei really couldn’t stand Mo Xue’s words. Did she really think that others couldn’t tell that she was deliberately belittling Mo Yu?

Su Mei interrupted Mo Xue’s words and smiled gently.

“Miss Shen, please pay attention to your status. You’re no longer the daughter-in-law of the Gu family. Gu Lian’s current fiancée is Mo Yu. You rushing to stick to another man like this, it is not the behavior of a noble lady.”

Mo Xue’s smile froze on her face as she explained awkwardly, “Auntie, I just want to help Little Yu. Moreover, Brother Lian and I have known each other for so long because of the relationship between the two families.”

“We appreciate Miss Shen’s kindness, but leave such a small matter to Little yu. It’s getting late. Has the Shen family’s car arrived? Or should I arrange for a driver to send you back?” Su Mei did not want to waste too much time talking to her. When this woman saw that Gu Lian had fallen into a coma, she immediately pushed the engagement to Mo Yu.

Now, she had come to curry favor with the Gu family for no reason. In short, she was up to no good.

Just like that, Mo Xue was politely sent out of the Gu residence by Su Mei. She sat in the car and punched the pillow twice indignantly.

What kind of person was this! How could she be a good mother-in-law to Mo Yu, but be an evil mother-in-law to her!

However, it did not matter. She still had a chance. She could definitely become Gu Lian’s eternal white moonlight!

When Su Mei returned to the living room, Father Gu had already brought her a cup of tea.

“That child Mo Yu has already returned to her room?”

“Yes, she went back.” Su Mei picked up the small teacup and took a sip. She said slowly, “I like that child very much. She’s simple, natural, and not pretentious. She’s like someone who knows how to take care of others. It’s just that she’s not very lucky. She was raised by the wrong person since she was young, and now she’s been found by her real family.”

When she returned, she was immediately told that she had to be a widow. Su Mei added in her heart.

“I like this child too. She’s straightforward and not hypocritical. What she did at the banquet today was also likable. She’s very confident and has her own opinions. The key is that she eats well. Even I couldn’t help but eat a few more bites from watching her!” Father Gu said with a smile.

It was also a blessing for such a child to be his daughter-in-law.

Gu Lian sat in front of the computer and seriously analyzed the direction of the stock market and which company he was going to collaborate with next. Mo Yu’s voice kept chattering in his mind.

“What did you eat in the second half of the banquet? I didn’t even get to eat anything!”

“Gu Lian, please stop ignoring me! Can you bring me breakfast tomorrow? I want to eat char siu buns, custard buns, pineapple buns, sweetheart cakes, egg tarts, black bean sauce chicken feet, and shrimp dumplings!”

“We’ll talk about it tomorrow.” Gu Lian flipped a page of the report and replied.

“Boohoo, you’re too much! I love you so much, but you can’t even bring me breakfast!” Mo Yu whined aggrievedly. In the next second, she heard Gu Lian’s smiling voice.

“You can’t just say you love me.”

“Then what do you want me to do?” Mo Yu heard the possibility of breakfast from Gu Lian’s tone and suddenly became excited.

“It’s not me. It’s the mission Mom arranged for you. Help me clean my body every day, especially my private parts. You must pay attention to hygiene.”

“…”

“I’m going to sleep. Good night, hubby!”

Gu Lian couldn’t help but laugh out loud before continuing to work.

It didn’t take long for him to hear even breathing in his head.

The keyboard tapping intertwined with the sound of breathing, forming a symphony in the middle of the night.
