Ye Wanqing was brought away from the hotel by Gu Jinyuan early in the morning.
It was rare for Gu Jinyuan to not wear a business suit that would make people feel that it was cold and hard to approach on the car, instead, he was wearing a grey fur coat with a light blue V-neck sweater underneath. What surprised Ye Wanqing was that the woolen sweater that was printed on it was < < < The Cat and the Mouse > >, together with Jerry's sweater that was printed on Gu Zhenmu's body.
The cartoon patterns on their clothes seemed to be incompatible with them. If Ye Wanqing had not seen it with his own eyes, it would be difficult for him to believe that they would actually wear this kind of parental clothing.
However, before she could even finish feeling surprised, Gu Jinyuan threw a shopping bag to her. Opening it, she saw that it was a sweater that was the same as theirs, with the words "a masquerading female cat" printed on it.
This is... A family of three?
Ye Wanqing's hands trembled a little. She had only agreed to attend the Clan Elder's Assembly. And this was in the car, how was she going to change?
Seemingly being able to see through her thoughts, Gu Jinyuan spoke first, "When we get to school later, we'll get off first. You can change in the car yourself."
"Can you …" Not exchanging?
Ye Wanqing couldn't ask, because Gu Zhenmu had always been looking at her with eyes filled with longing and expectation. After two years, he was finally going to appear at school with his parents once again. How could he not be happy?
Ye Wanqing could not reject her gaze, and in the end, tacitly agreed with Gu Jinyuan's words. After the car stopped at the entrance of the kindergarten, he would hide in the car and change his clothes.
However, she had underestimated her participation in the parents' meeting. After she had changed her clothes, the rest of the students had already gathered at the school field. They were the last to arrive and were also the most neatly dressed.
Ye Wanqing instinctively wanted to escape, but Gu Jinyuan hugged Gu Zhenmu instead, and then, grabbed her wrist. "Mrs. Gu, what are you still standing there for, let's go in together."
He called her Mrs. Gu very naturally, as if he had called her that a thousand times already, and his hand strength was so strong that Ye Wanqing didn't even have time to refuse to retreat, and he directly pulled her to stand in front of Gu Zhenmu's squad.
There seemed to be something going on in the school today. After Gu Zhenmu stood in front of the students, Gu Jinyuan pulled Ye Wanqing towards the line of parents and stood up straight, not letting go of her hand even once.
Today was a working day, so most of the children were either mothers or grandparents who came to attend the parents' meeting. Very few couples appeared together, so they stood there, quite eye-catching, and many people turned to look at them.
Gu Jinyuan was extremely uncomfortable, her entire body was extremely stiff, then Gu Jinyuan whispered into her ear: "It's all because you haven't appeared for the past two years, that's why other people are so strange, be more confident. Since you came, you don't want Mu Mu to be suspected by his classmates of having rented a fake mother to attend the reunion right?"
Gu Jinyuan was truly worthy of being the head of the Gu family. With just one sentence, he had pierced through a fatal point that Ye Wanqing was completely unable to refute.
Strangely, with Gu Jinyuan's hint, she felt those gazes suddenly become very calm, as if someone had draped a layer of invisible armor on her, causing her to not have to fear, as if she had turned into someone completely different from how she normally was.
All the tables and stools were arranged together to form two rows for the parents to make. The children were performing brilliantly in the open space in front, there were group performances and there were also individual performances. What surprised Ye Wanqing was that Gu Zhenmu had sung a song, a very old song, "Lu Binghua".
His temper followed Gu Jinyuan's, his voice also followed his. As he sang, his voice became a little hoarse and his expression became very gentle. He focused on Su Wen Chun, and his eyes started to tear up.
The classroom was initially noisy, but when he was halfway through the singing, everyone quietened down. Ye Wanqing's eyes turned red as he listened.
Gu Zhenmu was not used to releasing his emotions in front of everyone, he forced himself to finish singing and threw himself into Ye Wanqing's embrace, not wanting them to see him cry.
also knew that a child's face must be heavy, for fear of hurting his self-esteem, hence he helped to cover things up. The other mothers were all considerate, and although they saw Gu Jinyuan did not smile, their eyes never left Ye Wanqing, they were all envious of her marrying a good husband, and even had a good son.
Ye Wanqing was a little embarrassed by the compliment. She had not only one good son, she had three in total.
After all the children finished performing, the teacher began to summarize their performance for the semester. Because the children were still young, most of the students in the school encouraged their students to do so, yet Gu Zhenmu was the most outstanding student in the class.
Some were small flowers, some were small toys Gu Zhenmu was originally not interested in, but Ye Wanqing was extremely proud of himself, and had completely adopted the role of mother in the end. As long as he read out Gu Zhenmu's name, he would give a very happy applause, and Gu Zhenmu would even smile a little when he came up to receive the award.
Many of the mothers knew Gu Jinyuan's identity and had the intention to curry favor with him. They wanted to talk to Ye Wanqing and ask her how to educate their child, but Ye Wanqing actually didn't have any experience at all, so after being asked a few questions, he was at a loss. Afterwards, Gu Jinyuan and Gu Zhenmu escorted him out of the school and back to the car.
Ye Wanqing did not expect Gu Zhenmu to be so outstanding. Thinking back to his performance today, he felt that he had not qualified, and rubbed Gu Zhenmu's head: "Sorry Mu Mu, my mouth is too dumb, I did not get along well with the mothers of your classmates. I have lost face for you, please do not be sad."
"You're very good!" Gu Zhenmu retorted, what he needed was not an exquisite mother, as long as it was a mother.
He did not expect Gu Zhenmu to refute him, causing Ye Wanqing to be stunned. The next moment, he heard him say: "I'm already very happy that you came to participate in the clan elders' meeting today."
He had very few requests. As long as his parents were able to attend his parents' meeting, he would be happy.
The more sensible he is, the more Ye Wanqing's heart ached. He blurted out, "Teacher has been praising you today as well, why don't we have a good meal to celebrate!"
With that said, Ye Wanqing regretted it. The Clan Elder's Meeting was over, why did she bring up the matter of eating for no reason? Ashur was still waiting for her alone in the hospital.
Without waiting for her to go back on her words, Gu Jinyuan ordered Lu Zhou: "Go to the restaurant."
