Nancheng

  A Cantonese restaurant.

  In the luxurious private room, after Gu Yue's phone rang, she took a glance and answered it without any hesitation, "Alright, what's up?"

  The man opposite looked up at the mention of this name.

  I don't know what was said on the other end of the phone, but Gu Yu furrowed his brow and said, "What's going on? Why are you suddenly saying this? Did that little brat do something to upset you? I'll help you deal with him!"

  “……”

  "I knew that, but I wasn't thinking...". Gu Yuexiu covered the receiver, seemingly having some unspoken thoughts, then directly stood up, "I'll go make a call."

  After she left, her husband Xie Dongyu smiled and raised his glass, "I remember you used to be able to drink a lot, how come now, not even a drop?"

  Gu Huai'an rubbed the teacup in his hand, which contained a light green clear tea. His voice was as warm and gentle as the tea, "Your body is not well, you need to nourish it."

  "Hmph." Xie Dongyu couldn't help but laugh, "You're still so young, and you're already thinking about maintaining your health? How am I supposed to bear this?"

  Gu Huai'an also smiled, "You don't take care of yourself, you have to exercise your body, or you'll be disliked."

  Xie Dongyu looked down at his slightly protruding beer belly and sighed, "Just wait until you're over 35, then you'll know. Sometimes it's not that men don't want to exercise, it's just that they really can't keep up."

  Gu Huai'an raised an eyebrow and slowly sipped his tea, seemingly unconvinced.

  "Don't be skeptical, when people reach middle age, their physical skills start to deteriorate, and with busy work, those who can exercise regularly are superior." Xie Dongyu asked, "You're just thirty-one this year, right?"

  Gu Huai put down his teacup, "What's wrong?"

  "You're still young!" Xie Dongyu put down his wine glass, picked up the cigarette case, and muttered while lighting a cigarette, "I heard from Yueshu that you have a girlfriend?"

  "What did Dad say?" Gu Huai'an smiled.

  Xie Dongyu took a puff of smoke and burst out laughing along with him, "Old man, you're getting on in years, it's normal to worry about your marriage too."

  "In response, Gu Huai'an continued to stall, 'No rush.'"

  "The girl is unwilling?" Xie Dongyu nodded, "It's also true that it's not like before. Nowadays, women are not willing to get married early, and some even hold the idea of not getting married at all, preferring to be alone. But I still want to advise you, if you can settle down, grab the opportunity tight, otherwise, there will be a generation gap with the next generation, just like me now, every day I don't know what to say to my son."

  Xie Dongyu and Gu Yuexu's son is only seventeen years old this year, and he is in a period of youthful rebellion. As soon as he is mentioned, his old father's brow furrows into a "川" shape with worry.

  Gu Huai picked up a nearby teapot and slowly poured some water into the tea cup, then said, "It's not that I don't want to settle down."

  There's already something mysterious about it just by saying half of it.

  Xie Dongyu is an old hand and naturally understands it instantly!

  "I have experience with this. Women need to be coaxed, they actually have soft hearts, if you give them some flowers or jewelry, they'll be very happy, and if not, just take charge and do it forcefully!"

  "Gu Huai An raised his eyes, 'What?'"

  Xie Dongyu's heart skipped a beat under his gaze.

  Just as he was about to speak, Gu Huai'an suddenly stood up and said, "I'll go out and make a phone call first."

  Xie Dongyu: “......Alright.”

  Waiting for him to leave as well, the private room was left with only Xie Dongyu alone.

  What's wrong tonight?

  So many phone calls one after another?

  Think no one will look for me?

  **

  Gu Yuexu had a headache.

  Ever since she went to school three years ago, she has always liked taking care of Gu Hao.

  Xie Guangxian's parents divorced early on. After his father remarried, he almost never took care of this son.

  Mr. Xie was at a critical juncture of his retirement at that time, so he didn't have the energy to take care of this grandson either.

  So the task of educating him fell on her aunt's shoulders.

  She has a strong personality and has been in the army for many years, so since she was put in charge, there's no politeness involved, scolding at best, beating at worst, but the effect is just average.

  Xie Guangyan was afraid of her, but every time after being scolded, she still did whatever she wanted and didn't study well in school.

  One day, Old Master Xie was going to send him abroad.

  Xie Guangyan certainly disagreed and even went on a hunger strike to try to soften up the old man.

  Ke Xie Lao Ye Zi ironed his heart and refused to open his mouth.

  Later on, for some reason, Xie Guangyan agreed and before leaving, he found her and asked her to take good care of Gu Hao for the next three years.

  After three years abroad, this kid suddenly changed like a different person, except for being a model, all the other time was spent in school studying hard, and even became an excellent graduate.

  Gu Yuexu felt that even the most beautiful love was nothing more than this, it could make a young master suddenly transform and become so excellent.

  So last night Gu Hao called her to say that Xie Guangyan had gone to Xi Ling Ancient Town to find her... At the time, Gu Yuexu did not take any action and did not tell Lao Yezi about it.

  A boy leaves for three years and comes back to look for you first, which girl wouldn't be moved?

  Unexpectedly, Gu Hao was unmoved, and instead told Xie Guangyan that she didn't like him.

  Gu Yuexu advised for half a day without success, and retreated to ask secondly, "Alright, you don't have someone you like now, do you?"

  She thought that since Gu Hao didn't have a crush on any guy, the two of them could try it out first and see if they would change their minds after talking... but who knew...

  "Yes."

  Gu Yuexu: "!!!!!!"

  "Who?" she asked immediately.

  Gu Hao: "Anyway, it's not Xie Guangyan, I really don't like him."

  Gu Yuexu: "......"

  The little girl is really resolute!

  ……

  After hanging up the phone, Gu Yuexu was about to leave when a voice suddenly came from behind her, "Fourth sister."

  Gu Yue Shu turned around and found Gu Huai An standing in the corridor behind him.

  The man was not wearing a jacket, but a white shirt outside, with black trousers of the same color as the black vest, outlining his broad shoulders and narrow waist, looking elegant and refined.

  "How did you get out? Is Dong Yu smoking again?"

  "No." Gu Huai An slowly walked up, his tone also light, "Are you having a good phone call?"

  She was just answering a phone call in the private room, presumably overheard, Gu Yuexu nodded, "Uh-huh."

  "She's been filming a show recently, nothing's happened, has it?" Gu Huai'an asked again.

  He's a good elder, and also the leader of the company. Gu Yue didn't think much about it, "No, it's Guangyan, that stinky brat returned to China and went to find her right away, they even participated in a show together, as a result, they made it onto the hot search list and were seen by acquaintances. After Old Master found out about this matter, he was furious and had him return first."

  Gu Huai An nodded, "I've seen the show, actually he's quite suitable for it."

  "He initially went to be a model, and the old man didn't agree. Now entering the entertainment circle is even more impossible." Gu Yuexu also didn't treat him as an outsider, "You also know, Dad's age is getting older, after retirement he's counting on this eldest grandson to make some achievements, hoping he can quickly enter the company and settle down."

  Gu Huai nodded, "He's still young, if he wants to try more, it's actually not impossible."

  "What's he trying to do? He just wants to take care of that good-for-nothing girl!"

  Gu Huai'an, "What did you say?"

  "At first, the old master sent him to study abroad, and at first he refused to agree, until... " Gu Yue said everything, finally sighing, "Unfortunately, this good girl had someone in her heart long ago and didn't like him at all."

  "It can't be helped then." Gu Huai'an hooked up the corner of his mouth, "The fallen flower has intention, but the flowing water is ruthless."

  Gu Yuexu was curious, "But for these three years, I've been keeping in touch with her, and I haven't heard that there's any male companion around her..."

  "That's already been three years since we've been together."

  Gu Yuexu: "What? What? What?"

  Is it?

  She thought back carefully, three years ago, when Xie Guangyan was fighting with a boy to protect Gu Hao, what was that boy's name?

  **

  The two of them returned to the private room together, the house was clean and tidy, without a hint of smoke.

  Gu Yu sat down with a satisfied expression, "Not bad, you didn't even smoke behind my back."

  Xie Dongyu then gave Gu Huai'an a look.

  You know what I mean!

  ……

  After finishing dinner, they went their separate ways at the entrance of the restaurant.

  On the black sedan, Gu Huai An took out his phone and checked the time before dialing a number.

  The phone rang twice before being answered, and a little girl's voice came through, sounding particularly clear and delicate in the darkness, "Hello?"

  Gu Huai'an smiled and asked, "What are you doing?"

  "Busy."

  "What's the hurry?" Gu Huai leaned back in his chair, gazing out the window with a soft and low voice, "If I don't call you, won't you call me? Little white wolf..."

  The driver in front is shaking his head: “……”

  Little White Wolf?

  Who!
