Gu Lanshan turned around and saw Gu Jingyu, whom she hadn't seen for many years. She didn't know when he had appeared at the door.
Mu Wanqing stood up immediately.
Lin Che stood up as well.
Gu Xiande stood there in a daze and moved slightly.
Everyone watched as Gu Jingyu looked inside. The expression on his face was unreadable. After a moment of silence, he strode forward, one step at a time.
"Gu Jingyu."
"It's really Gu Jingyu."
"What is he doing today? Is he here to reconcile? "
Everyone watched as Gu Jingyu walked all the way to his seat. Gu Xiande looked at him with narrowed eyes. Gu Jingyu paused and swept his gaze across the people at the table. Then, he slowly fixed his gaze on Gu Xiande.
"Happy birthday, Grandfather."
Gu Xiande's eyes moved slightly. Excitement could be seen on his old face.
He stood up, walked around the table and came to Gu Jingyu.
He grabbed Gu Jingyu's hand and touched the back of Gu Jingyu's hand. After a long time, he said, "Jingyu, it's good that you're back. Grandfather is very happy. Grandfather is very happy for today's birthday."
Everyone was even more surprised. However, no matter how bad he was, he was still his grandson. He would still be soft-hearted no matter what.
However, Gu Xiande had always been a man of his word and never left any leeway. It made people think that he would not give in easily this time.
Perhaps it was because he was old and his way of thinking was different from the past.
Gu Jingyu said, "Grandfather, this is a gift for you."
Gu Xiande quickly took it and opened it. It was a small cigarette holder. It looked small and exquisite, but it was very beautiful.
Gu Jingyu said, "I remember breaking one when I was young. Grandfather didn't say anything. This can be considered as returning it to you."
"Yes, you were the naughtiest when you were young. You couldn't even count the number of things you broke."
"Yes, yes. I will slowly make it up to you in the future."
"Okay, okay. I will wait for you to make it up to me. Come, come in and sit."
Gu Jingyu looked around and came to Lin Che's side.
Everyone was surprised to see Gu Jingyu smile at Lin Che.
Lin Che was still in shock. He hadn't expected that Gu Jingyu would actually come.
After Gu Jingyu sat down, he smiled at Lin Che and said, "What's wrong? Are you stunned?"
"Why are you here?"
"You didn't say it?"
"I … I did say that."
"Yeah, I thought about it. Since a stupid person like you could figure it out, of course I can't lose to you. That's why I came."
"…"
Gu Xiande saw that the two of them were talking to each other. He looked at them and asked, "You've known each other for a long time?"
Gu Xiande didn't like the entertainment industry very much, so he had never seen any news about it. His family knew that he didn't like it, so they naturally wouldn't say anything.
Gu Jingyu said, "Of course, Grandfather. I'm good friends with Second Sister-in-law. Don't tell me you just found out?"
"Ah … yes, yes, I'm old, I'm old, I can't keep up with the trends of you young people anymore. I came to see you. Jingyu, Xiaoche just gave grandpa a family portrait, and you're already here."
Gu Jingyu turned his head and looked at the family portrait. He was also filled with emotions.
"We'll take one ourselves in the future."
"Okay, when you're all free, we'll go to the back and take one later." Gu Xiande looked at Lin Che and patted the seat next to him with a smile. "Jingyu, sit here. Xiaoche, sit next to grandpa."
The people below were stunned again.
Gu Xiande looked at the table full of people with a smile, then looked at Gu Jingyu and Lin Che next to him. A rare kindness appeared on his face.
Everyone present could feel that the old man was in a really good mood today.
He talked to Lin Che, then to Gu Jingyu. They looked so warm that the others couldn't interrupt even if they wanted to. Gu Xiande just smiled and looked at his grandchildren. He looked at Gu Jingze and narrowed his eyes, as if to say, "Jingyu, you've indeed found a good wife."
As smart as he was, how could he not know that Gu Jingyu had come back this time because Lin Che had secretly persuaded him?
Mo Huiling was watching them from the side. She wanted to interrupt them for a while, but she couldn't. She could only watch Lin Che sitting next to Gu Xiande, talking and laughing all the way. Gu Jingyu was also very close to her. From time to time, he would chat with her for a while. It was as if Mo Huiling was just an outsider sitting at this table.
Why did Gu Xiande like Lin Che so much? Moreover, it seemed that he liked Lin Che more and more. He was extremely satisfied with Lin Che.
Gu Lanshan looked at them from the side. Mu Wanqing was touched. She looked at Lin Che and almost cried.
Gu Lanshan gritted her teeth and said to Mo Huiling in a low voice, "You've been with Gu Jingze for so long, but you don't know anyone around him."
Mo Huiling's heart felt like it had been hit hard. She wanted to know them too, but Gu Jingze didn't like to take her out, so she didn't know anyone.
"I … I know someone too. It's just that … our relationship isn't too good," Mo Huiling said.
Gu Lanshan said, "Hmph, why don't you learn from Lin Che? Look at how he fawns over people. You, on the other hand, are so eager to fawn over people. Jingyu and Jingming don't even pay attention to you. They treat you as if you don't exist."
Mo Huiling felt so wronged that her tears were about to fall. "I … I'm not as scheming as Lin Che. Hmph, he's just a scheming b * tch. What can I do?"
Gu Lanshan only snorted coldly. She leaned over and stopped talking. She thought to herself that it wasn't without reason that Mo Huiling was defeated by a mere Lin Che. She couldn't even be compared to Lin Che.
The people below also looked at this scene and suddenly became excited.
It was really rare to see Gu Jingyu and Gu Xiande sitting together today.
Such a scene was actually witnessed by them. They would be able to brag about it when they got back.
Moreover, they looked at Lin Che enviously. She was a granddaughter-in-law, but she could sit beside Gu Xiande and chat cheerfully with him as if they were family. They suddenly felt that what Mo Huiling did just now was nothing. No matter how expensive the gift was, it was still something that could be bought. Lin Che had finally caught Old Master Gu's fancy.
Or, giving gifts also depended on the person. If someone you liked gave you a gift, no matter how cheap it was, it was a sign of his sincerity. If someone you didn't like gave you a gift, no matter how expensive it was, it was still something that could be bought. It wasn't a big deal.
Didn't this mean that if Gu Xiande liked Lin Che, she didn't need to give him a gift to express her sincerity. She could still sit beside Gu Xiande.
Previously, she thought that the rumors that Gu Xiande valued and liked Lin Che were fake. Now, it seemed that the person who said such things was the one who was slapped in the face.
