Yan Hengbai stood up from the sofa and supported the old man, "Let me go upstairs with you."

Elder Gu turned to look at him and nodded in satisfaction. He smiled and said, "okay."

...

Only Gu Xiaoyou was left in the living room, looking out of the french window in boredom.

Nu Nu was being led not far away by the nanny, and was tied to an old poplar tree in the courtyard.

Thinking that she would have to face Xu Ruochun and Yan Hengbai alone in a while, Gu Xiaoyou started getting annoyed.

She got up from the sofa and walked out alone.

In front of the old poplar tree, Nu Nu was sitting there.

Seeing Gu Xiaoyou approaching, it wagged its tail and jumped up happily.

Beside the poplar tree, Gu Xiaoyou squatted down and touched the head of Nu Nu. She lowered her head and played with it for a while.

There were footsteps coming from behind in the snow, but Gu Xiaoyou did not notice them.

Until there was a voice behind her ...

"Gu Xiaoyou, why are you with Li Junhuan?"

At some point, Yan Hengbai already stood behind her ...

Gu Xiaoyou slowly got up and turned to look at him.

Yan Hengbai's expression was different from before. The impatience on his face had disappeared and it was replaced by a look of concern.

Seeing Yan Hengbai like this, Gu Xiaoyou's mood was complex.

She looked away from his face and said casually, "Who I am with is none of your business."

Yan Hengbai was speechless.

Gu Xiaoyou continued, "Yan Hengbai, you' re worrying too much. Aren' t you afraid that Xu Ruochun will come out later, then misunderstand something and be angry with you when she sees us together?"

Yan Hengbai frowned subconsciously, "She's different from you. She's very innocent ..."

Hearing this form Yan Hengbai, Gu Xiaoyou almost gave a brittle laugh.

Not wanting to waste any more time with him, she untied the dog rope tied to the poplar tree and led Nu Nu towards another tree.

Nu Nu found a new target, lifted the hind legs happily and pissed for the enclosure.

Yan Hengbai caught up with her in a few steps. "Gu Xiaoyou, Li Junhuan is not as simple as you think. He ..."

Before Yan Hengbai could finish, Gu Xiaoyou had already turned around, "Great entrepreneur Yan, do you want me to say it again? You don't have to worry about me! What kind of person Li Junhuan is is his business! Also, if you really have unerring eyes, you can at least tell what kind of woman is a angelic bitch! Would an innocent woman stand in the way between us when she has known that you' re my boyfriend."

"Don't bring everything to Ruo Chun. This is different!" Yan Hengbai said in a low voice.

Gu Xiaoyou walked back to him and looked his eyes seriously, "Yan Hengbai, put away your useless kindness. Since Xu Ruochun's father helped you tide over the difficulties and you are so grateful, then stay away from me and treat your true love well. I have nothing to say to you anymore!"

Yan Hengbai, " ..."

It was the courtyard.

On the tall poplars, only a few remnant leaves were swaying wildly with the wind. Even if they were still struggling, they still could not escape the fate of falling to the ground.

Yan Hengbai and Gu Xiaoyou just stood there.

Looking from a distance, there was an indescribable sense of coordination.

Xu Ruochun watched this scene quietly through the glass window of the living room.

...

When Gu Qianan and Xu Jiaqi entered, the nanny had already set the table.

It had been a long time since the house had been so lively. Old master Gu happily took out the liquor he had kept for so many years.

When Gu Qianan passed Gu Xiaoyou, Gu Xiaoyou pretended not to see him.

Xu Jiaqi came out of the bathroom after washing her hands and walked to Gu Xiaoyou with an exaggerated expression, "Ah, I' m really happy today. Xiaoyou is back."

Gu Xiaoyou glanced at her and smiled insincerely, "Yeah, I haven't seen you, my young stepmother, for a few years, and your acting skills have gone up a notch again ..."

Hearing that, Gu Qianan turned around.

"Gu Xiaoyou! Shut up!"

...

Gu Xiaoyou rolled her eyes, got up from the sofa and walked towards the dining table.

However, Xu Jiaqi did not take it seriously. She was indeed more confident and intelligent than before.

Xu Jiaqi smiled and walked to Gu Qianan, "Qianan, it has been a long time since Xiaoyou come back. Don't be so fierce to her. How can you take her joke seriously ..."

Since Xu Jiaqi had found an out, Gu Qianan did not say anything. He sat down with a dark face.

...

The atmosphere at the table was rather good.

Halfway through the meal, Gu Xiaoyou suddenly remembered something and stood up and walked out, "I almost forgot. Nu Nu hasn' t eaten yet."

"Who is Nu Nu? What Nu Nu?" Xu Jiaqi looked at Gu Qianan in confusion ...

Gu Qianan's face was already dark. Just as he was about to get up and get angry, he saw Gu Xiaoyou walking in with the dog that was up to the waist of her.

Then, Xu Jiaqi's screams filled the entire house.

The dining room was in a mess.

Xu Jiaqi held Gu Qianan tightly in her arms and did not let go. She was so scared that her face turned pale.

Xu Ruochun stood up in front of her sister.

Xu Jiaqi was afraid of dogs. Gus knew that.

This was why the nanny had tied Nu Nu to the poplar tree from a distance and didn' t bring it in.

Gu Qianan stood at the table, holding Xu Jiaqi in his arms, and scolded Gu Xiaoyou.

"Hurry up and get this beast out of here. You' ve lived so long, and you don' t even have a upbringing!"

Gu Xiaoyou laughed at the mention of the upbringing.

She bent down and placed the dishes on her plate in front of Nu Nu and said ironically, "With a father like you, where did I get any upbringing? I only know that Nu Nu will never be hungry at the house of my mother's father, why, at your father's house, do you favour one more than another? In any case, Nu Nu is a loyal dog, unlike some people who are ungrateful and even worse than Nu Nu!"

As she spoke, she glanced at Xu Ruochun and Yan Hengbai.

Xu Ruochun turned pale and turned away from Gu Xiaoyou's gaze.

Xu Jiaqi, who was hiding in Gu Qianan's arms, could not hold it in any longer. Her eyes were bloodshot, "Gu Xiaoyou, tell me clearly, who is ungrateful?"

Gu Xiaoyou unhurriedly picked up a rib and placed it in front of Nu Nu. Nu Nu caught it immediately.

"My young stepmother, why are you in such a hurry to put you in?" Gu Xiaoyou smiled innocently.

Finally, old master Gu got angry and hit the table with his cane, making a heavy noise.

"Is there a home here? !"

Gu Qianan was stunned by the roar, and Xu Jiaqi also kept quiet.

Gu Xiaoyou turned around and glanced at her grandfather. Her face was a little pale and she lowered her voice.

"Sorry, grandpa, I' m full. I' ll come to see you another day ..."
