Gu Qingyao put down the cake and got ready to prepare dinner.
She did not care what happened to Zhou Ping, but her heart ached for her Third Brother who had obviously suffered. This was not the time to throw a tantrum.
However, she had just turned around when Gu Jinlin pulled her back. "No need. I'll just eat some of this to fill my stomach. We'll be able to have dinner soon. Let's eat together then."
It was already past three in the afternoon. They would indeed be able to have dinner in an hour or two.
Zhou Ping pulled a long face angrily and went back into the house, slamming the door shut.
Ji Mingyue was a little embarrassed. "That … Yaoyao, if there's any news about Mo Beihan and my brother, you must tell me! I'm very worried … "
Gu Qingyao took a deep breath and smiled. "Don't worry. I'll definitely tell you if there's any news. Don't worry too much. I think they know what they're doing. If they're not confident, they won't do anything. Things have already happened. Even if they can't win, they should have a way out."
Ji Mingyue did not know what to say.
Gu Jinlin suddenly said, "The two of you don't have to worry. We know what we're doing. The Zhang family will not target the two of you at the moment. Their attention is on us."
Ji Mingyue was stunned.
Gu Qingyao asked, "What did you do? I was just saying that the Zhang family's actions were a little strange. It doesn't make sense for them to attack the Ji and Gu families so quickly. "
Gu Jinlin smiled. "Of course it doesn't make sense. However, Mo Beihan and Ji Mingzhe did something. That's why they're keeping an eye on us and ignoring the two of you for the time being."
"Actually, at the start, it was just Zhang Qiang causing trouble. At first, he was pestering Ji Mingyue. At that time, it wasn't very overboard. The Ji Mingzhe was protecting her, so Zhang Qiang didn't dare to do anything overboard. But this time, Ji Mingzhe said that he couldn't let things go on like this. He had to settle things once and for all, or else his sister would be in trouble."
"Mo Beihan couldn't stand him having such thoughts about you, so he decided to be ruthless. In order to protect the two of you, he first drew their attention to the family's interests."
"Now the Zhang family will only try their best to deal with us men who work outside. It's profitable. When we all fall, the two of you can only be slaughtered."
Ji Mingyue was a little nervous. "Then … then what about the future? Is the Zhang Clan really going to deal with you one by one? Then wouldn't both our families be finished? My … My brother and the others seem to have run into some bad luck recently! "
Gu Jinlin smiled. "This is the only way to delay the Zhang Clan and protect the two of you for the time being. As for the rest …"
Gu Jinlin shrugged. "Mo Beihan said that we would be fine in the end and asked us to wait. I think he must have gone to settle this matter."
"Then where did he go?" Ji Mingyue asked anxiously.
Gu Jinlin shook his head. "I don't know."
After Ji Mingyue went back, Gu Jinlin went to rest because he was exhausted after a day of manual labor and had not eaten lunch.
Zhou Ping had been hiding in the house and did not come out. The two children did not disturb Gu Jinlin's rest in the house and stayed in the living room with Gu Qingyao.
Gu Qingyao prepared dinner. When Gu Jinlin woke up to eat, there was still no movement in Zhou Ping's house.
Gu Jinlin called out to her twice, but Zhou Ping said unhappily that she did not want to eat. Then, Gu Jinlin ignored her.
He kept the food after he finished eating.
Zhou Ping waited in the house for a long time, but no one brought her food. Just as she was fuming, Gu Yundong returned. When she saw her husband, she immediately did not dare to flare up.
But she was still very indignant that Gu Jinlin was being made things difficult for her.
