Gu Shishi started to work hard after that.
She realized that the task was still difficult.
Huo Jinyao started to work overtime again and came home late.
According to Si Yi, she should focus on her work. Her boss probably wanted to focus on accompanying her.
As Gu Shishi blushed, she could only put the task aside.
After all, the male lead was not around, so she had no place to show off her skills.
She continued to draw every day and went to the art studio to teach students.
The process of explaining to students with zero foundation was also her learning.
After a few explanations, she realized that her mastery of the basics had reached a new level.
If it was said that she had more than ten years of experience in drawing, the tip of the pen moved around.
But now, she truly had the world in her chest. Every stroke of the brush was neither too much nor too little. It was just right.
She was also completely focused on sorting out the basic knowledge of Chinese painting. She felt that she had another faint breakthrough.
There were seven days left until the official wedding countdown.
At night, she drew plans on the calendar.
On the day of the wedding, what time to wake up, what gown to wear, what time the makeup artist would arrive … what time to welcome the guests, when the banquet would start …
What time was the flight the day before …
She drew on the calendar.
"Noodles … coffee … tissue …"
As Gu Shishi drew, she couldn't help but fill in the days after their marriage.
She used simple strokes to draw the interactions between the two of them that came with the system.
However, there was a question mark on the calendar.
The date was uncertain.
She couldn't do it!
Gu Shishi threw away the pen and rolled around on the bed.
She was going bald.
She couldn't think of a way to complete this ridiculous task!
It was too flashy!
Gu Shishi rolled herself up and turned off the lights to sleep.
She slept early for beauty.
She didn't want to have dark circles under her eyes on the day of the wedding.
Okay ~
However, while Gu Shishi was sleeping soundly, Huo Sishen received a call to question him in the car on the way back to the villa.
It was a call from his father-in-law, Gu Shishi's biological father, Gu Jiangxin.
"Ridiculous! I didn't even know that my daughter was getting married. I saw the invitation in someone's WeChat message! "
Gu Jiangxin's tone was obviously unpleasant.
Si Yi, who was in the front passenger seat, turned his head awkwardly. "Mr. Gu, please calm down first …"
Gu Jiangxin actually called Si Yi instead of personally calling Huo Sishen.
"Put him on the phone!"
"I can't stay calm!"
Si Yi turned around and saw Huo Sishen's stern expression. It was even more solemn than usual.
Gu Jiangxin's voice was very loud. Huo Sishen, who was sitting at the back, could hear him clearly from his Chuchu.
He had no intention of picking up the phone.
Si Yi moved the phone closer to him.
"I don't think those who didn't attend the engagement ceremony need to attend the formal wedding."
Huo Sishen was expressionless.
It was as if he wasn't facing his father-in-law at all, but an unrelated person.
"Huo Sishen, what's with your attitude now? I'm marrying my daughter to you because of the agreement between your grandfather and the Gu family! I, Gu Jiangxin, have always kept my promise. How dare a junior like you talk to me like that?! "
Gu Shuixin was obviously furious.
"Gu Shishi is my daughter! As her future husband, you can't even send an invitation to the Gu family. Don't you know any etiquette?! Do you still have any sense of shame?! "
Huo Sishen ended the conversation with a single sentence. "No."
He raised his hand and gestured for Si Yi to hang up the phone.
Si Yi felt goosebumps all over his back.
He could even talk back to his father-in-law and hang up the phone casually. His boss was really amazing.
However, on second thought, he could understand. From the engagement ceremony to Miss Gu moving into the villa until today, it had been more than ten or twenty days.
However, as her father, he hadn't even shown his face.
He didn't even call his daughter home for dinner, let alone visit her to see how she was doing.
He had also never heard Miss Gu call her family members.
The Gu family was really too cold to Miss Gu.
They didn't seem like family at all.
"If you call again in the future, just say that I'm not around."
Huo Sishen closed the document and threw it on the back seat of the car.
He lowered his eyes to hide a trace of coldness.
He hadn't even bought her a single piece of clothing. What else could such a person do at the wedding other than spoil his adopted daughter like a fool?
Huo Sishen was displeased. He was on the verge of exploding.
She was so afraid of him that she didn't even have the courage to call him personally. She didn't even have the courage to attend the engagement ceremony. Why did she send her daughter to him?
What was the difference between this and selling her daughter?
Before selling her daughter, he hadn't even bought her a single piece of clothing.
This was ridiculous!
"Did the Gu family interfere with the Huo family's business?"
Si Yi smiled bitterly. "President Gu took 5% of the shares."
Huo Sishen looked at him coldly. "Don't spread this to Miss Gu."
Si Yi nodded quickly. "Okay."
She wouldn't feel good to be told that she was just a bargaining chip in a deal. No matter what, she wouldn't feel good.
"That bastard!"
After Gu Jiangxin hung up the phone, he started cursing.
Mrs. Gu, Zhang Wen, looked at her husband helplessly. "Take note of your blood pressure. Don't be angry. He sent us an invitation. Can we still go?"
"Is this even the same thing? She was raised in someone else's family. What kind of education did she receive? She doesn't even know how to be filial to her parents! If she was half as sensible as Wushuang, would she still treat us with such disrespect? "
Gu Jiangxin couldn't take it anymore.
"She doesn't care about her parents at all! I even heard from Old Li that my daughter was going to have her wedding in Malay. How can you say that? "
He looked at his wife with a hint of resentment. "You didn't tell me when you heard the news from Wushuang. Do you know how Old Li looked at me at that time?! He looked so sarcastic and even told me to spend more effort on my biological daughter. It was as if I was abusing her! "
Zhang Wen's expression immediately darkened. She couldn't sit still.
"Old Li said that about you?"
"Jiang Xin, I- we really didn't care enough about Shishi."
"Care? How could we care? Was the engagement ceremony something I didn't want to go to? It's not like you didn't know that I was overseas for business! "
Gu Jiangxin threw his phone on the coffee table in frustration.
He loosened his tie.
"After that, at a few banquets, it was either Wushuang or you who was uncomfortable."
"I can't go to someone else's house and care about my own daughter, right? You didn't hear the attitude of that boy from the Huo family when he spoke to me just now. If I went, he would probably chase me out! "
Zhang Wen sighed.
"At that time, we wanted her to get in touch with Young Master Huo as soon as possible and live together to see if they could get along well. Perhaps in the eyes of others, we were heartless."
As she spoke, her eyes turned red.
Zhang Wen was also a delicate beauty when she was young. Her skin was fair and her waist was slender. She had the unique gentleness and charm of a Jiangnan woman.
Although she was old now, she maintained herself well and often went to beauty salons. She still looked like she was in her prime.
On the contrary, she was more mature and knowledgeable than a young girl.
Gu Jiangxin still doted on his wife.
He didn't feel good seeing her cry either.
He held her shoulder and patted it.
"I've explained to Old Li. When Shishi has a child in the future, she will understand our painstaking efforts."
People who were in the wrong would never feel that they were wrong.
This was especially so for people who had achieved great success in certain fields. They would always feel that their thoughts were always right.
They were able to think for others and make decisions for others. In the future, others would even thank them.
Gu Jiangxin undoubtedly had such confidence in himself.
"The most important thing now is Wushuang's surgery. As for the rest, forget it. Let's put it aside for the time being. "
Zhang Wen wiped her tears.
"I've let Shishi down, but … I really can't bear to see Wushuang die like this. She raised her daughter for more than 20 years."
"If Wushuang goes back to her biological mother's house and we don't care about her, how can she live in this body? Just thinking about it makes my heart ache so much that I can't breathe. "
"Jiangxin, it's all my fault. It's because I'm a mother with limited energy that I neglected Shishi … I made you bear the blame of not caring about your daughter."
As she spoke, she began to sob.
If Gu Shishi was here, she would probably be dumbfounded.
Gu Wushuang was not talented and self-taught. She was simply influenced by Zhang Wen.
Under the influence of Zhang Wen, she had learned most of Zhang Wen's Little White Flower, and had even surpassed her.
In the end, why didn't she have enough energy to care about her biological daughter?
If other families had a second child, shouldn't they just throw the second child away?
Zhang Wen's godly logic coupled with her weak crying voice did not make Gu Jiangxin feel that there was anything wrong with it.
One was a little white flower, while the other was stubborn and conceited.
One thought that she valued relationships, while the other valued exchanges of interests. They became a god-like couple.
Gu Jiangxin hugged his wife.
"Don't cry. The children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."
"We can't care so much."
"Moreover, now that the Huo family is willing to let Shishi marry into their family, she has hope for the rest of her life. It's better than living with her adoptive parents. In the end, she's luckier than Wushuang. At least she won't be sick or in pain. She won't be despised by her in-laws in the future. "
Zhang Wen nodded repeatedly and revealed a weeping smile.
"Yes, yes, yes. We can't go that day, so we'll send her a WeChat message and wish her happiness in the future. We hope that she can bear a child for Young Master Huo soon."
The male chauvinist Gu Jiangxin pulled a long face. "If you want to send it, send it. I won't send such things."
"Daddy, Mommy."
As they were talking, there was a knock on the door.
Gu Wushuang, whose eyes were also red, walked in.
"You can go to Senior Sister's wedding. I have Brother Cheng to accompany me to the surgery. Moreover, the surgery might not be done that day … Even if it's done that day, maybe I can wait until you come back … "
Zhang Wen's tears, which had just stopped, fell again.
As soon as he stood up, he put his arms around her.
"My sweetheart, what nonsense are you talking about? Of course you have to wait for us! "
"We'll be with you that day! You have to get better and come back to China with me! "
"When our family comes back, we'll go to the Huo family to visit Senior Sister."
"Your sister will understand if you don't attend the wedding."
With tears in his eyes, Gu Wushuang called out, "Mom …"
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.
Gu Jiangxin sighed as he watched from the side.
Gu Shishi was oblivious to the "touching" scene that was playing out in the Gu family.
Frankly speaking, she had almost forgotten that she had to inform her parents about her wedding.
A few days after she moved from the Jiang family to the Gu family, the Gu family pushed the original body to Huo Sishen.
After Gu Shishi transmigrated, she had only met her biological parents once or twice. She could even count the number of words she had spoken to them with one hand.
They were like strangers.
It was awkward to invite strangers to attend a wedding, wasn't it?
Gu Shishi had completely forgotten about them.
It was only when she received another message from her foster mother that she remembered.
It turned out that … she had parents …
"Tsk."
"No wonder I feel like I've forgotten something."
She looked at her phone again and couldn't help but be stunned.
[Mother Jiang: Shishi, I heard from Wushuang that you're getting married? I heard that your husband sent invitations to the guests that came with a one-carat diamond. You're so lucky!]
[Mother Jiang: Let me tell you, I told your aunts and uncles about your wedding. They all said that they must attend! We don't have many people here. I think 110 invitations should be enough. Help me send them home. Oh, by the way, we just moved. I didn't have time to tell you the address.]
[New address: …. Don't send it to the wrong address!]
[Oh, by the way, you don't have to fill in your name or anything. Just send it over. I'll write it!]
Gu Shishi rubbed her nose. She was speechless.
They had moved and only told her today?
110 invitations … Did they want to go to heaven?
No, they wanted 110 carats of diamonds … How shameless!
