Chapter 173: Thick-skinned

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

For Xiao Shan to be able to become the head of the family, his skin was naturally not ordinarily thick. Now, in order to snatch his daughter-in-law, he could even tolerate thiw.

Now that Gu Teng was the daughter-in-law he had set his heart on, so many outstanding rich second-generation heirs were fighting to marry him. Gu Teng was definitely the best in the world.

Moreover, his granddaughter was still in the hands of others. So what if he had heard some unpleasant words?

After Gu Yi finished speaking those sarcastic words, Xiao Shan hurriedly said, “I know that it’s because Gu Teng is too good that so many people are fighting to marry her, but how can those trolls be worthy of her? Our Xiao Jing’s ability is obvious to all. He’s even more devoted to Gu Teng. How can those people compare to him?”

Gu Yi really wanted to roll his eyes at him. You’ve stopped him many times in this relationship. Otherwise, they would have been together long ago.

However, his goal wasn’t to fall out with Xiao Shan. He just wanted to support his daughter, so he didn’t say anything else.

In Xiao Shan’s opinion, he was moved by his words. He quickly struck while the iron was hot and said, “Those people outside are all here for Gu Teng’s money and identity. Our Xiao Jing is different. When he first met Gu Teng, he didn’t know her identity at all. He loved Gu Teng himself. Even after Gu Teng left, he had been searching for so many years and didn’t have any intention of marrying anyone else.”

If Xiao Shan hadn’t mentioned this, it would have been better. The mention of this made Gu Yi angry. He snorted and said, “Then what’s with the engagement with Miss Chen?”

Xiao Shan knew that Gu Yi would definitely mention this matter. He smiled and said, “That was the engagement I made behind his back. At that time, I didn’t know that Gu Teng was still alive. As a parent, I have to plan for my child’s marriage, so I chose Miss Chen. Now that Gu Teng is back, it naturally doesn’t count. Moreover, that Miss Chen can’t be compared to Gu Teng.”

Gu Yi really looked down on this prospective in-law from the bottom of his heart. He had clearly wanted Xiao Jing and Miss Chen to hold a wedding back then, but Xiao Jing had made a scene and let it go. Now, he was using these dignified words.

Now that Miss Chen’s engagement had been annulled, not only did he not give compensation, but he also slandered her in front of outsiders. He did not consider Miss Chen’s future reputation at all.

Gu Yi hated this kind of double-dealer the most in his life. However, he could not say that he did not want Gu Teng and Xiao Jing to get married. He could only swallow the words in his heart.

Seeing that he didn’t say anything and thought that he was eloquent, Xiao Shan finally convinced Gu Yi and began to chatter. “I heard from Xiao Jing that the auspicious day has been calculated. We should organize a wedding. The banquet list has to be written now…”

Gu Yi felt his ears begin to hurt when he heard him talking non-stop. Gu Lin could tell that he was impatient towards Xiao Shan, so he quickly leaned over and said, “There’s no hurry. Our family is busy holding a birthday banquet.”

Xiao Shan’s smile did not change as he said, “We’re all family, so I can help. I’ll definitely make Gu Tengs birthday banquet glorious.”

With that, he walked up to Yunbao and said, “Yunbao, Grandpa bought you a lot of toys. I’ll send them to you later.”

Yunbao was really not familiar with Xiao Shan, so she replied politely, “I have toys, Grandpa, you don’t have to buy them.”

Old Master Gu was in a good mood when he heard Yunbao’s words. He held Yunbao’s hand and said, “There are many toys at home. As long as Yunbao likes it, I’ll buy you a new one.”

With that, he pulled Yunbao away, leaving Xiao Shan standing alone with a stunned expression.

Although inviting the young talents was to scare Xiao Shan, Gu Tengs birthday banquet still had to be held according to the original plan.

For the past two days, they had been extremely busy just from choosing the cake. Gu Teng had seen no less than a hundred birthday cakes, and her mind was filled with the image of birthday cakes.

She really couldn’t choose and handed this matter to Yunbao. She handed the tablet to her and said, “Let Yunbao choose Mom’s birthday cake, okay?”

Yunbao was very interested in such lively things. She sat on the sofa with her tablet and began to choose. In the end, she chose a very cartoon princess cake. Gu Luo was a little hesitant when he saw this picture. If this cake was used at Gu Teng’s birthday banquet, the guests would probably be shocked. Just as he was about to stop her, Gu Teng nodded and said, “Then I’ll take this.” Gu Luo asked, “Little sister, are you really going to use this cake?”

Gu Teng asked, “Third Brother, do you think that I can’t use a princess cake at my age?

Gu Luo immediately smiled and said, “Little Sister should definitely use a princess cake at her age..”
