Without hesitation, the man picked up the phone. He would have to face it sooner or later anyway.

"Hey, Auntie!"

When Gu Yi heard that it was Huo Xuaner calling, he guessed that it had something to do with his family, or maybe even the company. Forget it, she didn't have the mood to listen. Since she already said she was going to eat, then she might as well go. After all, who would want to eat with her. She hadn't eaten since noon.

He found a white dress and compared it with his own. Mm, it looked pretty good. He suddenly felt that his mood was not that bad, after all, the man had chosen to stay and did not look for Su Mutong.

Could it be that his feelings for Su Mutong were really not love?

Should he really give it a try?

She sighed suddenly, heavily, as if she had made a decision.

As Huo Yunzheng had ruined his aunt's new meeting, he could not avoid a scolding. In order to apologize, he had to treat her to a meal.

It was getting late, so after Gu Yi changed her clothes, the two of them quickly arrived at the agreed location.

"Aunt, hello —" After following the waiter to the private room, Gu Yi saw Huo Xuaner eating at the table and called out sweetly. She really did like this aunt of hers.

"Aunt -" Huo Yunzheng also greeted, and then pulled Gu Yi to sit down.

"Xiao Yi, aunty misses you. Last time, I didn't manage to make it up to you, now you can be considered to have made up for it!" Come, come, sit by my aunt's side. " Compared to the attitude Huo Xuaner had towards Huo Yunzheng, Huo Xuaner was even more passionate towards her own daughter-in-law.

Gu Yi looked at Huo Yunzheng, and without waiting for his reaction, she sat down beside Huo Xuaner.

Humph ~

Naturally, there were people who liked her.

"It's all my fault, aunt. I never asked you to meet up with me." Gu Yi smiled embarrassedly. Because things happened one after another, she had indeed forgotten about it.

"Aiyah, that's more like it. Xiao Yi must be hungry, let's start the meal." Huo Xuaner pressed a button on the table after she finished speaking. A minute later, the waiters brought up the dishes one by one.

Actually, this restaurant was Huo Xuaner's personal name, and had nothing to do with Quo’s Family.

She had the mind to do business, so in just a few short years, she had raised the limelight of the restaurant's management and gained a great reputation in the industry, so she wouldn't always carry the title of Quo’s's daughter.

Gu Yi admired her. She had lived a carefree life, and her career was so successful, just like Arrol Chen.

Due to Huo Xuaner's regulation, the meal went by very easily, and during the meal, cheers and laughter would frequently be heard. The delicacies of the dishes made Gu Yi eat a lot, as if they were all made up for the afternoon.

Just like that, with delicious food, it was easy for people's moods to become better, thus Gu Yi's mood improved a lot after eating.

The VIP box was very spacious, not because it was meant to accommodate a lot of people, but because it was very well-equipped. There was also a cubicle — it was a teahouse.

After the meal, they sat together on the sofa in the tea room, drinking tea and chatting happily. After around half an hour, Huo Xuaner called for someone to take out an exquisite small box from her bag.

This box was truly exquisite. Under the light of the lamp, it emitted a beautiful glow. It was gentle yet enchanting. It was made from the polishing of pearl shellfish.

"Xiao Yi, this is a wedding present I gave you."

Hearing that it was a gift for him, Gu Yi was very happy, and even a bit excited. Because, in her entire life, she did not receive many presents. Other than the small gifts that Qiao Xiaoshi would give her from time to time, it was as if she had only received three official gifts.

The first time was when he was twelve years old, and was given a necklace by Su Mutong in the orphanage.

Gu Yi still remembered when Su Mutong said that this necklace would follow him for the rest of her life. At that time, Su Mutong probably didn't even know what this necklace represented.

If she knew, why would she give it to him?

Hehe, I think it's really funny.

The second item was the bracelet Huo Yunzheng had given his five years ago. The bracelet that Su Mutong had picked up was something she had cherished all these years. It's just that ever since Su Mutong gave it to her, she no longer wanted to wear it.

What she was most impressed with was a painting.

It was a homework that Qiqi had drawn after becoming more sensible. It was a piece of family fortune …

At that time, Qiqi would always ask herself where his father had gone to, why did others have his father and mother while she only had her mother and father. She also remembered that every time she hugged her daughter and cried loudly, she slowly got used to it.

However, what made Gu Yi's heart ache the most was not her daughter's constant questioning, but her drawing of her entire family.

That's right, the child had never seen his father's land before, so how could he draw it?

Qiqi, is it for you, Mother Mi also wants to fight for a bit.

"Xiao Yi, what are you standing there in a daze for? Hurry up and open it ~" Huo Xuaner reminded her with a smile. She didn't know what Gu Yi was thinking, but she seemed to be lost in thought.

"Mhm mhm, okay ~" He smiled at his aunt and carefully opened the box.

Where was the gift that had entered the three people's eyes? It caused a few black lines to slide across the man's heart, but lit up Gu Yi's eyes instead. He was overjoyed in his heart.

Because they were all women, Huo Xuaner only gave Gu Yi a bracelet as a gift. It was just that this was not an ordinary bracelet, it was a bracelet filled with diamonds and it was a more expensive limited edition bracelet.

introduced them to Gu Yi. Each of them was a natural diamond from South Africa, unpolished, but it would be very comfortable to wear.

Seeing such a beautiful bracelet, Gu Yi felt that she would not be willing to wear it, because it was simply too beautiful!

She really liked powdery things, even the things that Qiqi had brought along like pink. The clothes and the furnishings at home were mostly pink.

She felt that pink was a symbol of happiness, a symbol of love, a symbol of sweetness. These were things she had to pursue all her life, so she really liked pink.

But for the men at the scene, it didn't mean that. He knew that the pink color represented the aura of love, but Gu Yi had already married him. If she continued to use such a pink color, who knew how many men's hearts she would attract!

Therefore, he couldn't take it!

"No, I can't take it." He really just spoke.

"Why?" The first one to speak was Huo Xuaner.

"Yeah, why?" Gu Yi was even more frustrated. Why does this man care about everything, not even wearing a bracelet?

"I just can't." The man explained feebly, but did not want to say what he really thought. What was she talking about? Was she afraid that this little girl would go out and take advantage of her?

"I want it, I like it ~" Gu Yi didn't wait for Huo Yunzheng to explain and just put the bracelet back into his bag.

That's right, a girl wearing a pink bracelet looks really good, Little Zheng, why did you ruin our mood like this, it's real! Huo Xuaner glared fiercely at Huo Yunzheng. He had destroyed her meeting during the day, and had come at night to destroy the elegance between him and her daughter-in-law.

The man's face was filled with black lines. However, when he thought back to what happened during the day and how he was powerless to refute his aunt's reprimand, he could only watch helplessly as his woman refused to listen to his words.

En, not bad. He has really grown up and knows how to find a backer!
