C34 Attitudinal Shift

When he returned home, Mu Li saw that Sister Liu only faintly nodded and ran back to her room. She originally wanted to call out to Mu Li, but discovered that the woman's expression was hurried as if she was running away from something.

Elder Sister Liu looked at Gu Tingxiao with a puzzled expression, "Young Master, what happened to the Madam?"

"I'm fine." Gu Tingxiao's tone was cold as well.

Sister Liu couldn't help but frown. Why did the two of them become like this just by going out?

Gu Tingxiao returned to his room and opened the door to find Mu Li lying on his bed. He turned his body to the side when he heard Gu Tingxiao enter, his back facing Mu Li.

"I've booked a flight for this afternoon." Gu Tingxiao spoke slowly.

"Yes." Mu Li didn't have any other words to say.

"Then rest well, I'll leave first." There was no explanation, no comfort.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Mu Li sat up, tears welling up in her eyes. "Mu Li, hold it in. Don't be so useless."

However, her legs still managed to get out of the bed. When she came downstairs, she found that Mrs Liu had already closed the door.

"Ma'am, what is it? Young Master has already left. " Sister Liu was sure that something must have happened between them and she clearly felt that Mu Li was reluctant to part with her young master.

"Why did he leave so quickly …"

"Madam, the young master's car is just outside and it hasn't gone far yet. Why don't I go and stop him? You two can say a few more words."

After all, the two of them had just gotten married. It would be good if they could spend more time together.

"No need." But Mu Li refused. What's the use of saying so much? To Gu Tingxiao, she was just an unnecessary person.

She knew that the marriage between the two of them was a mistake. If she hadn't replaced Mu Yan and married Gu Tingxiao, the two of them would never have interacted with each other again in this lifetime.

When Mu Li returned to his room, he saw the decorations of the entire room. Before this, they could still be considered harmonious, but now, Mu Li felt that this arrangement was somewhat comical.

In the afternoon, Mu Li received an unfamiliar call and discovered that it was Gu Shao An.

"Dad, how did you find the time to call me?" It had been many years since Mu Li had called out this word, so it still felt a bit awkward for her to suddenly say it.

"I know that Ting Chen went on a business trip abroad, so I'm afraid that you might be bored staying at home. Come over to accompany me and Ting Chen's mother for dinner tonight."

Gu Shao'an's tone was gentle and gentle, not at all like the tyrannical overlord that bullied him.

"Okay dad, I'll go back tonight." Even so, Mu Li was still very nervous. Aside from Gu Ruoyun, she wasn't familiar with the rest of the Gu family.

Mu Li didn't know what the two of them liked, so he just bought some things and went to the Gu household by car.

The Gu family mansion was indeed worthy of its reputation in the business empire. Just looking at the courtyard was enough to prove the Gu family's heroic spirit.

This house could no longer be described as a villa. It was clearly a manor.

"Young Madam, you've come. Please follow me." When the butler at the door saw Mu Li, he spoke very politely and led her to the manor.

Mu Li followed the butler into the luxurious, palace-like house.

"Xiao Li is here. Come in quickly and take a seat." Bai Fenghua, Gu Tingxiao's mother, called out to Mu Li. Even though Gu Tingxiao was already disappointed, he was still his youngest son.

"Thank you, Mom." Mu Li walked to the sofa and sat down as he spoke.

"Are you used to living with Ting Chen after your marriage? He has an eccentric personality, I hope you don't mind. " As Gu Tai spoke, he picked up the fruit beside him and sat beside Mu Li.

Mu Li nodded slightly. "We've gotten along quite well with Gu Tingxiao, but we've never met before. We need to get along slowly to understand each other's personalities."

"Ever since his car accident, his temperament has become extremely cold and detached. I feel very gratified that the two of you can get along with him."

Bai Fenghua said as he handed the peeled fruit to Mu Li. "Taste the fruit. It was just shipped from abroad."

"Thank you Mom, how can I let you peel my apple?" Mu Li's passion for this woman was difficult to resist. Ever since his downfall five years ago, there had never been a person who treated him like this. For a moment, Mu Li found it hard to accept.

"We're all family, what's there to be polite about? If you want to eat or wear anything, just tell me. We will satisfy you." As Bai Fenghua spoke, he put down the knife in his hand. However, the look in his eyes now looked a little different from before.

"Mom, if you have anything to say to me, just say it directly." Mu Li also discovered it, so he put down the fruit in his hand and looked at Bai Fenghua whose expression had already changed.

Bai Fenghua couldn't help but raise his eyebrow. He didn't expect that this woman was actually smart.
