Gu Cheng didn’t decline as usual this time, but obediently agreed instead.

Gu Yan also revealed a smile.

He had realized his own mistake.

Once, he had protected Gu Cheng too well.

He always felt that Gu Cheng, being so young and having lost his father, faced the disdain of others around him, so he subconsciously wanted to shield him from the storms.

Yet, it was precisely because he had protected Gu Cheng so well that he had always remained naive to the ways of the world.

This naivety, if placed in good times, wouldn’t pose any problems.

But in today’s world, fraught with crises everywhere, Gu Cheng must become strong on his own.

Otherwise.

Without Ye Bingtong, there would be a Chen Bingtong or a Li Bingtong. He would always be the first target for those people.

To prevent such things, the best way is to let Gu Cheng face this cruel world head-on.

To give him the ability to handle everything on his own.

Only then would the Gu Family truly have no weaknesses.

“Big brother,” Gu Cheng looked at Ye Xiao, hesitated for a moment, and then called out, “and Ye Xiao, thank you for tonight.”

Gu Cheng could guess.

His big brother and Ye Xiao weren’t here for a date; they must have known he was meeting with Ye Bingtong and, out of concern, followed him here.

His troubles really caused everyone too much worry.

Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow, just about to speak.

Suddenly.

A voice rang out.

“Gu Cheng, how did you get here? I’ve been looking for you for ages,” Ya Huijun walked over, only to realize when she got closer that there were other people here.

This is…

Ya Huijun’s gaze shuffled between Gu Yan and Ye Xiao for a moment, instantly understanding!

This was Ye Xiao, the one who had made her iron-tree son bloom!

Ya Huijun’s face lit up with a brilliant smile: “Xiaoxiao, you must be Xiaoxiao, right? I went to your house to call off the engagement last time, but you weren’t home. After that, I went to Mount Putuo to worship, and I never got to see you.”

Speaking of which.

Ya Huijun had already walked up to Ye Xiao, warmly taking her hand.

“Hello, Auntie,” Ye Xiao responded with a very well-behaved demeanor.

Seeing Ya Huijun’s bustling energy now, she couldn’t help but sigh.

Ya Huijun’s endgame wasn’t looking too good either.

[Auntie went to Mount Putuo? Then she must have met that painter. I wonder what stage their relationship has reached now! I remember, in the book, this painter claimed to be a frustrated middle-aged artist, not only did he deceive Auntie into investing in him, he also cheated her emotionally. Later, when Uncle Gu found out about this, he forbade Auntie from seeing that painter. Auntie got very angry and even made a fuss about taking back her shares in the company, causing great unrest in the Gu Family.]

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but lament in her heart.

Reading these books.

She felt.

Gu Yan really had a hard time.

Friends, family, none of them were reliable.

He himself has always been quite clear-headed and even took some actions to change the course of his fate, but in the end, none were successful.

Ye Xiao’s inner voice resonated directly in Ya Huijun’s heart.

Ya Huijun was dumbfounded.

What did she just hear?

It was Ye Xiao’s voice, but she hadn’t spoken.

So, were these her inner thoughts?

Ya Huijun couldn’t help but look at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao continued sighing.

[That painter was being manipulated to drive a wedge between the members of the Gu Family. This time, I hope Auntie won’t be deceived again.]

Ya Huijun went rigid all over.

She suddenly felt a chilling sensation.

Because of what Ye Xiao had said.

And because.

On this trip to Mount Putuo, she really had met a very talented painter, and they had even exchanged contact information.

Just that.

Those things like scamming money or feelings never happened; they were now just ordinary friends who spoke occasionally.

Yan Huijun’s gaze couldn’t help but shift.

To be honest,

since her husband’s death, she had been in love a few times.

But she never considered starting a new family with anyone; to her, her two children were far more important than any replaceable man.

Yet in Ye Xiao’s heart,

she was willing to argue and make a scene with Gu Yan, even wanting to take back her shares and put Gu Yan in a difficult situation?

How…

How could this be possible!

Gu Yan had heard it too, but his expression remained very calm.

These issues,

he had been through countless times before.

Every time, he took some actions.

However, it was as if his mother was possessed, insisting on giving her all for that painter.

She didn’t care about home, children, or the company anymore.

She seemed eager to give everything to that painter.

Gu Yan didn’t understand.

Why things had come to this.

After their father’s death,

the three of them supported each other to get through to today, and they actually shared a deep bond.

But once they met a certain person,

whether it was Gu Cheng or mother, they would suddenly become irrational.

At that time, he was very confused and even began to doubt himself.

Was it truly his failure as a person that made both his mom and brother desperate to get away from him?

In this life,

because of Ye Xiao,

Gu Yan understood and let go.

It wasn’t that mom and brother changed; it was just that these people were born as NPCs, and since they were NPCs, they could only follow the plot.

Someone like him, who could awaken from the plot, was probably a unique case.

Although being aware was painful, compared to others who were lost, Gu Yan was grateful that he had suffered so many times.

Because of those pains as a foundation,

this life,

he could resist the obscure destiny with Ye Xiao’s help.

Not just him.

This time, other people didn’t seem to be as suppressed as before.

Ye Bolin, Gu Cheng… hadn’t they both changed their fates?

Mother could also have a different ending, it seemed.

Gu Yan was relatively calm, but Gu Cheng couldn’t help but glance at their mother.

Sheesh!

Had their Gu Family stirred up a hornet’s nest or something?

In Ye Xiao’s heart,

first, because of a Ye Bingtong, he disregarded everything, leading their company toward ruin.

Now, mother was actually playing the role of a sunset romance.

Looking at it this way,

the big brother had become the ultimate source of resentment?

Gu Cheng stealthily glanced at Gu Yan and, seeing that Gu Yan’s expression was unchanged, sighed.

Alas.

Heaven had shown him mercy by letting him hear Ye Xiao’s inner voice, and that’s how he was able to change his fate.

The big brother couldn’t hear Ye Xiao’s inner voice, which was why he could remain so calm.

He was a member of the Gu Family too; since Heaven had given him this ability, perhaps the great task of saving the Gu Family was going to fall on his shoulders!

Gu Cheng couldn’t help but ask, “Mom, did you meet someone during your trip to Mount Putuo?”
