When Aunt Yun saw Ming Xue Mo and Gu Zi walking in together from the front door, her expression suddenly became unnatural.

She didn't want to question Ming Xue Mo's actions. She had said that she knew what she should do, so she believed in her; however, she couldn't help but worry for her. Thus, taking advantage of the opportunity to grab her schoolbag, Aunt Yun disapprovingly whispered, "Miss, why did you bring him back?"

He was still on guard as he looked at the box in Ming Xue Mo's hand.

Although Gu Zi's words and actions showed his concern for Ming Xue Mo, Aunt Yun would never forget that the target of Miss's tutelage was his son. He had a family, so if he and Miss got too close, it might harm her too.

Seeing the cautious expression on Aunt Yun's face, Ming Xue Mo sneakily glanced at Gu Zi and asked without making a sound: "Are you still satisfied with Auntie Sweeper's reaction?"

Gu Zi asked and replied with his eyes: When people get old, their eyes will be bad. We have to be strict with ourselves and be lenient with others.

Mingxue had managed to decipher the word "nothing wrong" on his face before shifting her gaze back to Aunt Yun. However, she did not answer Aunt Yun's question and only introduced her to her very naturally: "Aunt Yun, this is Big Brother Gu." Then, she told Aunt Yun to get Gu Zi a glass of water and asked him, "I'm not sure if there are any tea leaves in our house. Even if there are, I'm not sure if they can still be drunk.

"I don't mind what I drink, but won't you invite me to sit down?" The first time he had come to her house, he had squatted in a bookcase and jumped over a building. The second time he had come to her house, he had been standing from start to finish.

Ming Xue Mo smiled lightly and quickly brought him into the living room, saying, "Take a seat anywhere."

Gu Zi asked as he found a nearby seat and sat down.

As soon as he sat down, Aunt Yun came back with water, looking like she was defending him.

Gu Zi had to admit that he admired her a little. She was so worried about him, so why would she still let Momo go to his house to teach Gu Si? When he went to pick up that girl today, he had thought that she would follow him. Otherwise, he would have Uncle Zhong follow her and scout to find out what kind of family Ming Xue Mo was tutoring. Moreover, he was prepared to greet A'Mo. He never would have thought that no one would follow him. It seemed like this little girl was the same as him. Although she was often bullied by servants, she was still able to suppress them.

Aunt Yun walked up to Gu Qishao and placed the water on the tea table. She said coldly, "Mr Gu —"

She was going to say, "Mr Gu, please drink some water." She had just said the first three words when Gu Zi interrupted her. "You don't need to call me Mr Gu." This was Gu Zhenxiong's title, and he couldn't afford it. "Just call me Young Master Gu."

Aunt Yun did not know about these things and thought disdainfully, "Don't think that you are great just because you say you are the young master. In C city, there are only a few families that have the same amount of money as the Ming family. If it weren't for fear that Miss would be unhappy and more eccentric, I would never agree to let her go be a tutor!"

However, Ming Xue Mo was sitting on the other sofa, so Aunt Yun didn't dare to make a fuss in front of her. She pushed her water cup a little further forward and said, "Young Master Gu, please drink some water." She stood between Gouzi Wen and Mingxue Mou, unmoving.

Gu Zi picked up the water and thanked him. Mother Fu had cooked plum and meat tonight. He had eaten too much pickled vegetables and was now a little thirsty.

Before the cup reached her mouth, Aunt Yun asked again, "Is Young Madam Gu well?" She wanted to remind Gu Zi to remember that she was a person who had a wife and child, and to not think too much just because she was ignorant of the affairs of the world!

But how could she know that Gu Ziwen had a child, but no wife, and the word 'wife' was his taboo.

He knew that he was an atypical good man. Normally, he liked to help others, but he was not so noble as to hurt his own people.

Although she didn't know the details of the past between him and Gu Si's mother and didn't know that it was his taboo, under normal circumstances, the dead should be kept in the bottom of his heart. Every time he mentioned it, it would be harmful to the living again, not to mention that Gu Zi still felt remorse and regret for Gu Si's mother.

"Aunt Yun!" It was the first time that Ming Xue Mo had used such a strong emotion to call Aunt Yun.

Aunt Yun was not a brainless person, seeing that Ming Xue Mo reacted so dramatically, she knew that she said the wrong thing. At this moment, the phone rang, and she retreated to the other side to answer it. She used her eyes to signal Mingxiu to be mentally prepared for Dai Weiping's questioning or scolding.

Mingxue waved at Aunt Yun to show that she understood, then looked at Gu Zi apologetically and asked, hoping he would forgive her unintentional offense.

Gu Zi couldn't not say that he didn't mind, but those who didn't know were not guilty. Furthermore, he knew that Aunt Yun's intention was to remind him to keep his distance from Ming Xue Mo. He understood her position and her way of doing things.

He winked at Mingxue and told her not to be nervous. Didn't he just 'tell' her that he would be lenient towards her Aunt Yun?

Pointing at the landline, telling her not to worry about him, she kept her attention on her mother. This phone call was definitely not only for today.

Aunt Yun felt the same way about her, so she kept looking at Mingxue while she talked on the phone. If it wasn't for the fact that she was afraid that her wife would notice something, she really wanted to turn off the hands-free so that her mistress could hear what she had said.

As a result, not only could Mingxue hear Aunt Yun, she could also see her saying:

"Madam …"

"I'm back."

"She just went upstairs. Wait a moment, I'll go call her."

Aunt Yun paused for a moment after saying that, as if she was considering whether she should say it or not. When she finally opened her mouth, her tone was still conflicted, and she lowered her voice like a snitch. "Madam, I don't know if I should tell you something."

"It's about Miss."

"I found out that Miss didn't find a home tutor. On the contrary, she was the one who taught at home."

"Okay, I'll go get her right away."

Aunt Yun put the phone down on the counter and went upstairs in a flippant manner. She knocked twice, then turned back and walked over to Mingxue, leaned close to her, and whispered in a low voice, "Madam is angry."

Ming Xuemei nodded before nervously walking over to pick up the phone.

"Mommy — —" Although she was very nervous, her voice was still as obedient as ever, and there was nothing out of the ordinary about it.

Dai Weeping did not immediately start questioning her, but first asked the old question that she always asked, "Momo, how has your studies been recently?"

Ming Xue Mo obediently replied: "It's pretty good, I just came back from tutoring."

In the end, she chose the latter. She was a person who valued time.

"I heard that you're tutoring someone else. Is that true?"

Although he didn't hear her reply, everyone around Ming Xue Mo knew that when she was silent, something was going on in her heart. Therefore, she didn't need to admit it to know that this matter was absolutely true.

"Xue Mei …" There was a hint of 'I really can't understand you' in her tone. "Why did you do this, you're going to take the college entrance exam soon. This is such a critical moment, if you don't hurry up and study hard, what will you do if it affects the college entrance exam?"

Ming Xue Mo remained silent, but her mood wasn't as calm as her expression. If her mother could not wait to reprimand her, then it meant that she was still nervous. She still cared about her, right?

Dai Weiping clearly knew that Momo was a person who would stay silent whenever she was unhappy, and also that she would stay silent for a long time. However, before she could react, she hesitantly asked: "Momo, are you listening?"

In the past, when her mother called back, she often didn't say anything, but she would never ask if she was listening because her etiquette education required her to wait for the other person to hang up before hanging up. Yet today, she asked this question.

Her voice was like a mosquito's, indicating that she was still alive.

When Dai Weiping heard her voice, she began to preach again, "Then why didn't you answer? How can you be someone else's home tutor? Is the allowance Mom and Dad gave you insufficient? "Tell me, how much do you need? Mom will transfer the funds to you immediately."

"Xue Mei, you have to always remember, you are the young miss of the Ming Family, you can't do anything that would lose your status, do you understand?"

"You're still the most outstanding student in Xi Hui Middle School. You have a great future ahead of you, and Mom and Dad are still hoping for you to shine. You can't ruin your own future, understand?"

"Listen to your mother, don't go in the future. "I should hurry up and check on my homework. I don't have anything to leave behind. If there's anything, I have to hurry up and do it."

"However, don't be too tired either. You still have to take care of your rest, your body is the foundation. "In short, do not waste time on unworthy things, understand?"

Ming Xue Mo didn't say anything, but this time, it was not because she didn't want to, but it was because Dai Weeping didn't give her the chance to interrupt. She couldn't remember the last time her mother had said so much to her, as if it hadn't happened at all. Mother still loves her and cares about her …

Ming Xue Moyan, who felt concerned for her mother, slowly let out an uncontrollable smile of happiness. Although, what she wanted the most was for them to come back and personally discipline her, she had to learn to be content with herself. Right now, this was also not bad, she couldn't help but glance at the clock on the wall.

Her intentions of changing pillars by stealing someone else's heart had a clear effect. Moreover, in this' rebellion 'process, she had obtained an unexpected harvest from Big Brother Gu. She was already a big winner.

After repeatedly admonishing Mingxue, Dai Weiping asked her to give the phone to Aunt Yun.

Mingmei placed the receiver into Aunt Yun's hands, and returned to her original position with her light footsteps that felt like it was about to fly out of joy.

Gu Zi asked as he looked at her joyful appearance with a smile on his face, feeling happy for her. However, he didn't say anything. The call wasn't over yet. If Dai Weeping heard the voice of a strange man in their family, she probably wouldn't be able to be happy.

Aunt Yun answered the phone and said, "Madam —"

Dai Weeping's tone of voice immediately changed, it was different from when she was speaking to Mumei, it was different from how she spoke to Aunt Yun, it was the tone her master used to his servants, "Aunt Yun, I'm leaving the Miss in your care, it's to trust you, but are you trusting me? I warn you, if anything goes wrong with Miss, whether it's learning or anything else, I'm going to ask you a question. "You better not be careless. Otherwise, you won't be able to bear the consequences."

When she said those last words, Aunt Yun felt that Dai Weeping's words were strange. It was not harsh, nor was it simple harsh words. It was a kind of … How should one describe it? It seemed very close to being sinister and ruthless. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was sinister and vicious. In short, it gave people goosebumps.
