Chapter 316 Even the Substitute Loves the White Moonlight 2
Gu Jin'an then asked, "So, do you want to come with me tomorrow?" After saying all that, the last question was actually what he really wanted to ask.
He wanted to go with Zhaozhao.
Unfortunately, Zhao Zhao wasn't in the mood for that, and said calmly, "I have company business to attend to tomorrow."
With that, he got up and left the study, leaving behind only the words, "Don't go out and fool around."
Every time Gu Jin'an and Lin Qingning got together, they always caused a lot of trouble. In Zhao Zhao's opinion, it was Lin Qingning, this bad friend, who led Gu Jin'an to cause trouble everywhere.
"Sigh..." In the end, only Gu Jin'an was left in the study, sitting there blankly staring at the book that Zhao Zhao had read.
I wonder if it's because he's grown up and become more mature, but my brother smiles less and less these days.
……
At lunchtime, the family ate together. Gu Jinan was listless and lacked energy. Instead of sitting in her own seat, she insisted on sitting next to Zhaozhao.
Seeing this, Gu Lingfeng, the current head of the Gu family, was about to say something when he was stopped by a look from the Gu family patriarch. "Jin'an, what's wrong with you lately? You seem so downcast."
The old man gazed at Gu Jin'an's face as if it were a precious treasure, his face beaming with smiles. His old, slightly trembling hands even served food to Gu Jin'an.
Gu Jin'an, however, took it for granted and even said, "Grandpa, I don't want to eat this today."
Upon hearing this, Xu Wei seized the opportunity and quickly used serving chopsticks to pick up a dish that Gu Jin'an liked the most. "Here, Jin'an, eat this. I remember you like this dish the most."
Although Gu Lingfeng looked serious, his words were still full of concern: "What happened? Who offended you again?"
There were five people at the table, and the eyes of three of them were all focused on Gu Jin'an, who received the concern of the whole family simply because he was in a bad mood.
Although Xu Wei may not truly care...
Zhao Zhao ate quietly, already used to this kind of scene.
"elder brother."
Suddenly, a piece of succulent meat appeared in his bowl; it was Gu Jin'an who had placed it there for him.
He ignored all the concern and only served food to Zhao Zhao.
But Zhao Zhao ignored his concern.
The atmosphere at the table was somewhat tense. A loud "smack" rang out as Xu Wei put down her chopsticks. "Zhao Zhao, your little brother is talking to you! Are you mute?"
"Boom!"
Before Zhao Zhao could even speak, the sound of Gu Jin'an throwing down his bowl without any hesitation stunned everyone. "Aunt Xu, my brother is none of your business!"
From childhood to adulthood, he might not care if others scolded or insulted him, but if anyone bullied Zhao Zhao, he would definitely throw a punch at them. He was only a little more polite because of Xu Wei's status.
He is the only son of the wealthy Gu family. They give him everything he wants, and almost everyone sides with him, regardless of whether he is right or wrong.
Grandpa Gu immediately looked at Xu Wei with displeasure, "What are you, an adult, doing interfering in the affairs of two children?"
Although Gu Lingfeng did not express his opinion, he, who rarely communicated with Xu Wei, did not even glance at her.
Xu Wei was extremely embarrassed, and in the end, Zhao Zhao came to her rescue.
Unfortunately, this person bullies the weak and fears the strong, holds grudges but not kindness, and turned around to glare at Zhao Zhao.
It was the familiar study again. It was well soundproofed, and Xu Wei loved to discipline him here. She knew he wouldn't resist, and she knew he loved and respected her, so she was unrestrained.
"What's gotten into you and Gu Jin'an lately?"
Xu Wei is very beautiful, and her figure-hugging cheongsam accentuates her beauty. When she smiles, she is more beautiful than flowers, but she rarely smiles when she is alone with Zhao Zhao.
"Didn't I tell you? Try to please the Gu family, try to please Gu Jin'an, why won't you listen?!"
Her voice was shrill, and she raised her hand as if to slap him, but when she looked up, she saw that her son was a head taller than her. She held back and finally lowered her hand.
