Old Man Gu had heard that Gu Qi hadn't left, and Xu Yi had added extra fuel to the fire by the side. The reason why she had purposely made a scene was because Gu Qi had left the door open for her, and the Gu family's stock price had been affected.
Old Man Gu couldn't stand Xu Yi's half-serious look. He slammed the table in anger, "Third brother, is it like this?"
Although Old Man Gu's words were a question, his tone was clear.
Gu Qi was used to seeing this sort of thing. The corner of his mouth hooked up into a disdainful smile, and just as he was about to go back, he was snatched away by the man beside him.
"Uncle Gu, Third Young Master went to the banquet that day. It's just that the company has too many matters to handle, so Third Young Master has to go back and take care of business."
Pei Zi Yun's tone was indifferent, everyone knew, because the news of Xu Yi paying twenty billion US dollars to the Gu family was known by the board of directors.
They were unwilling to let this go and insisted on an explanation. This matter had been suppressed by Gu Qi. Since Pei Zi Yun had said this, Xu Yi would naturally not be stupid enough to get to the bottom of this.
"Hur hur, I wonder if the company has too many things to do or women to keep him busy?"
Xu Yi smiled sinisterly as she stealthily changed the topic.
"In front of Dad, Madam Xu has to take responsibility for her words. I know very well in my heart whether or not you've done anything wrong by saying that. Are you trying to incite our relationship?"
Xin Nianyin suddenly put down her chopsticks. Her words were loud and clear. Just as she finished her sentence, Pei Zi Yun followed up.
"I believe Madam also knows that the Young Madam is at the early stage of pregnancy, and Doctor Su also said that she is not to be provoked. If anything happens to the child in the Young Madam's womb, then this responsibility will not be borne by anyone."
After Pei Zi Yun had finished speaking, he did not forget to observe the expressions on the mother and son pair.
Xu Yi and Gu Bainian's faces turned green for a while, while Pei Zi Yun's lips curled up into a mocking smile.
The main character who was originally on the topic was Gu Mai, but the person in question didn't say a word. The two of them were singing the same tune, making the enemy fall into a complete mess.
Everyone knew that even though Old Man Gu didn't like his daughter-in-law, he valued her child even more.
Naturally, Gu Qingxiong would not ignore Pei Zi Yun's words.
"Alright, let's not talk about it anymore. Can't you just have a nice meal with a friendly family?"
Old Man Gu suddenly slammed the table heavily, directly ignoring Xu Yi's wronged expression as he coldly reprimanded her.
"If you truly wish to, then please let this Gu Clan's letter marry into your family as soon as possible, and carry on the line of descent for the Gu Clan."
Gu Qingxiong hated not being able to meet expectations. After all, he was someone close to a pillow, so he obviously knew what he was thinking. After all, he was the head of the Gu family.
"Understood, hubby, don't be angry. It's not good for your health."
Xu Yi's face was full of grievance. In the next second, outside of Old Man Gu's line of sight, she glared viciously at the other three.
"It was a good meal before, but now I don't have any appetite anymore. I don't want to eat anymore!"
After Old Man Gu finished speaking, he tossed the chopsticks in his hand away and left without looking back.
Seeing the departing figure of Gu Qingxiong, there was no reason for Xu Yi to stay. She glared at the three of them, turned around and shouted, "Hubby, wait for me!"
He chased after Gu Qingxiong's figure.
Once they left, the only ones left on the table were the three Gu siblings, Pei Zi Yun and Xin Xinyin.
This time, Xu Yi's battle had ended in victory. Xin Nianyin was in an exceptionally good mood, so she subconsciously gave Pei Zi Yun a cutting hand. The smile on her face could not be concealed.
This time, thanks to Pei Zi Yun's tacit cooperation, she would not have been able to deal with Xu Yi's domineering attitude alone.
Pei Zi Yun looked at Xin Xinyin's scissors and smiled. He seemed to understand why his good friend would fall in love with her so wholeheartedly.
What the two of them did not pay attention to were the remaining three Gu siblings.
Firstly, it was Gu Miaoyi. Second brother had warned her that the relationship between Big Brother Qian and Third Sister-in-Law wasn't as simple as she thought, so she didn't believe him.
But now, she suddenly started to believe him. Brother Qian had never smiled at her like that before.
But Third Sister-in-Law, how could she? She clearly knew how much she liked her brother, so why did she still do that?
She was afraid that she might not be able to hold back any longer and go up to question the two of them. Why did they treat her like this?
Ever since she was young, she had never been so sad even when her big brother had ignored her.
But this time, she really felt so sad that she wanted to cry.
The next second, Gu Ai Ai quickly left the dining table. She was afraid that tears would fall from her eyes.
A trace of heartache flashed through Xin Nianyin's heart as she watched Gu Liuyi leave. However, there was no way she could explain it to her right now. She could only mutter in her heart, "Jiuyi, you have to believe in Third Sister-in-Law."
Gu Qishao's mother became much calmer after her words. This further strengthened his resolve.
In the future, even if someone were to say that Pei Zi Yun and Xin Xinyin had an affair, no one would be too surprised.
Especially their father.
"My apologies, but my mother doesn't seem to care about others when she speaks, I hope you don't take it to heart. You guys eat first, I'll go take a look at the spice."
Gu Bei gently said before leaving to chase after Gu liao Ai.
With the audience gone, there was no need for the remaining three people to act. After pretending for so long, she was already a little hungry. It was time for her to have a good meal.
Xin Nianyin took off her disguise and started to eat. She didn't even care about Gu Jianming's black face. Her appetite was surprisingly good.
While eating, he did not forget to call the two people beside him, "Aren't you guys going to eat? This dish tastes pretty good. "
Hearing these words, Pei Zi Yun felt that ten thousand crows were floating above his head. He then retracted his previous thought. This woman was sometimes retarded, and was truly shameful.
From the look on his face, he knew that if he didn't leave, then not only Xin Nianyin would suffer, but he would also be doomed.
For the sake of his own safety, he still felt that he should succeed and retreat, lest it bring harm to the fish pond.
"Young madam, please eat more. I suddenly remember that the company still has some matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving first."
After Pei Zi Yun finished, he didn't wait for their reactions and disappeared.
At a time like this, staying alive was more important.
Before she could open her mouth, her wrist was grabbed by someone. Before she could clearly see what had happened to her, she was forcibly dragged away.
"Gu Yi Chen, what are you doing? "Let go, it hurts, you want to kill me?"
Xin Nianyin finally snapped out of her daze with great difficulty and unhappily shouted as she looked at Gu Bo's face.
Why did this man have a dark expression on his face? Just now, she was speaking up for him, could he not see it?
"Yes, murder. Kill them and keep quiet."
Gu Qi suddenly stopped and looked icily into Xin Xinyin's eyes as she spoke without a trace of emotion.
