How could he not have expected anything?

Gu Qingyao was slightly startled, then nodded and agreed: "Yes, Assistant Ling came as well."

"Then... Your father, he … " Nian Wanru was obviously a little worried.

Gu Qingyao casually told her what had happened today. After a moment of silence, she said, "It's also strange … Her daughter is usually very gentle as well. How could she have done such a thing? "

Gu Qingyao was slightly startled.

She didn't know about Ling Yiyi's character, but how could Nian Wanru understand it so well?

Seemingly having seen through Gu Qingyao's thoughts, Nian Wanru coughed lightly and said, "Actually, Ling Xiaoman and I had a chat after that."

Gu Qingyao's expression immediately darkened.

Nian Wanru laughed: "Ling Xiaoman has a good personality, it wasn't easy for her to bring along a child by herself, she explained a lot to me, she did not think about marriage, so she adopted Ling Yiyi back then, I didn't think that Ling Yiyi would stir up such trouble today."

Gu Qingyao listened quietly and thought that this Ling Xiaoman … You've made up this story pretty well.

"She contacted me later on and said such a big thing, so it probably won't be good for her to continue staying in Seahold, so she wants to send Ling Yiyi abroad."

Gu Qingyao was startled. "Ling Yiyi is going abroad?"

"Yes, Ling Xiaoman's English is not good, she still has to develop her skills in the country." Nian Wanru sighed: "It's such a pity."

Gu Qingyao laughed silently, and said: "Did she say which country Ling Yiyi was going to?"

"To America, I think." Nian Wanru said calmly.

Gu Qingyao's heart slightly shook, and nodded: "Really?"

Nian Wanru patted Gu Qingyao's head, "Mother knows that you don't like Ling Xiaoman, because she felt that Ling Xiaoman was getting too close to father. But mother has come into contact with her this time, how could I say it?

Gu Qingyao really wanted to laugh out loud.

She did not want to tell Nian Wanru about this matter, because if Ling Xiaoman could truly withdraw and let it all become a thing of the past, there was nothing bad about it. But now, Gu Qingyao could not help but blurt it out.

The next second, there was a knock on the door.

"Why aren't you resting so late?"

It was Gu Yanzhi's voice, and his tone was very gentle.

Nian Wanru opened the door and handed over the things in her hands with a smile: "Drink some hot milk and rest early. You've worked really hard during this period of time, and you have to go out so late to come back."

Nian Wanru's eyes were filled with laughter. She took a sip of the milk and asked: "Sugar?"

"With some honey, don't you like it? This will also help you to sleep soundly. " Gu Yanzhi said with a smile.

Nian Wanru's smile grew even wider. "You still remember …"

"This taste hasn't changed for decades. It's hard to forget." Gu Yanzhi laughed, then said: "Alright, if there's nothing else, go rest early. Don't be late."

"Yes, don't worry." Nian Wanru smiled and agreed, then looked at Gu Qingyao: "Xiao Yao, mother will be going back first, you should rest early too."

"Alright." Gu Qingyao nodded with complicated feelings.

Nian Wanru and Gu Yanzhi walked out while smiling as they spoke. Gu Qingyao laid back on her bed, feeling conflicted for the first time in her life.

She had believed that everyone had the right to know the truth.

But now, Gu Qingyao suddenly suspected that letting Nian Wanru know about Ling Yiyi's origins, was it really the right choice?

Perhaps sometimes confusion is also a kind of happiness.

Gu Qingyao closed her eyes. Since Ling Yiyi was out of the country, she would not dare cause trouble for the time being.

They were now the laughingstock of the entire Haicheng City. Word of mouth would spread and this matter would be spread. Wasn't this enough?

Gu Qingyao did not continue to think about it. At least for now, this was enough.

She rolled a few times on the bed, but still called Xiao Ze in. She asked seriously: "What does Mr. Li like?"

Xiao Ze was startled. "Mr. Li?"

"Yes, is there anything I particularly like?" Gu Qingyao's face was extremely serious.

"I don't think so." Xiao Ze thought hard, but still said: "Miss, Mr. Li does not like anything, previously there was a customer who wanted to bribe Mr. Li into bidding, and so I gave him many things, but Mr. Li seems to be very angry."

… ….

What kind of method was this?

Gu Qingyao sighed, and said: "Then in the past, what would everyone send to Mr. Li's birthday?"

"Everyone?"

"Un, could it be that is not open for Mr. Li's birthday?" Gu Qingyao asked naturally.

This time, Xiao Ze laughed out loud: "Of course not, Mr. Li has never opened these doors, Mr. Li is not a person who likes liveliness."

He wasn't a person who liked to be lively, didn't like to laugh, and didn't like anything.

Li Muyan's life... It sounded tedious, but it was completely different from what he remembered.

Li Muyan, who was with him, would also smile at him and say some interesting things, and would even take the initiative to invite him to join his Birthday Feast. He had never said before that there would only be two people in the Birthday Feast.

That kind of Li Muyan was incomparably fresh and fresh.

Gu Qingyao slightly lowered her eyes and smiled, and said: "Alright, then I understand."

"Mr. Li invited young miss to the Birthday Feast?" Xiao Ze was a little surprised.

Gu Qingyao nodded: "That's right."

"Heavens …" Xiao Ze said in shock and astonishment, "That's truly the first time Mr. Li has ever disliked a birthday."

What was Li Muyan's life like?

He was the dream lover of the thousands of girls in Hai Cheng. He was very handsome in his business, and logically speaking, such a person should always be bustling by his side, but Li Muyan was different. He was always alone, as if he was isolated from the world.

But Gu Qingyao knew that he walked out on his own.

They walked out of the bustling three thousand by themselves.

Gu Qingyao did not continue to think, and only said: "Help me prepare some things."

"Yes."

Gu Qingyao said: "I'll set it at Pearl Beach, and help me find a restaurant with a good scenery, and directly host a dining area."

"Ok, does Miss have any other arrangements?" Xiao Ze asked.

Gu Qingyao thought for a while, then shook her head: "I'll go like this first, I'll prepare the other things when I think about it."

"Understood." Xiao Ze agreed, thought for a while, then returned: "However, Miss, since Mr. Li said that he will treat Miss to a birthday, then I believe Mr. Li has already decided on a restaurant."

"That's not the same." Gu Qingyao was startled, then laughed: "Where is there the logic of having a birthday be prepared by a longevity star?"

Birthdays should be filled with anticipation, waiting for the surprise of friends and family members one by one, that was the profound meaning of birthdays.

Just what did Li Muyan experience that led to him not having any expectations at all...

Gu Qingyao suddenly felt a little heartache.
