After the two finished breakfast, Gu Xizhou conscientiously cleaned up the table.
Su Yutang changed into a pure white dress, her long, straight black hair flowing smoothly over her shoulders.
She has an exceptionally pure and captivating personality.
Gu Xizhou wore a beige casual suit left by Shen Jibai, looking clean, refreshing, and incredibly handsome.
As soon as the door opened, He Xun presented a large bouquet of vibrant roses, his smile warm and attentive.
"Good morning, Tangtang. I brought you breakfast."
He immediately handed the breakfast in his other hand to Su Yutang, but when his gaze fell on Gu Xizhou standing next to her, the smile on his face instantly froze.
He didn't react for a moment, his eyes scanning Gu Xizhou's face repeatedly.
Is this Gu Chengyan?
Or is it Gu Huaiye?
Just to be on the safe side, he spoke tentatively, his tone tinged with uncertainty.
"Are you Gu Chengyan, President Gu?"
Gu Xizhou's face darkened: "I am not Gu Chengyan, I am Gu Xizhou."
He Xun rarely saw the young master of the Gu family.
He had never heard much about Gu Xizhou from Gu Ruyan, only vaguely knowing that this youngest son of the Gu family had never been favored by his family.
He never expected that Gu Xizhou would appear here.
Su Yutang didn't take the breakfast from He Xun's hand, nor did she even glance at the bouquet of roses.
"Move aside, you can have breakfast by yourself. You can save the flowers for your old flame."
She paused, tilted her head to look at him, a hint of mockery in her eyes.
"By the way, we're going to the Gu family now to see your old flame, Gu Ruyan. Do you want to come along?"
He Xun's heart tightened.
He had long since stopped relying on Gu Ruyan, and lately he had been eager to stay far away from her, so he was unwilling to get close to her again.
He could only advise, "She's been targeting you at every turn, so be careful when you go. Call me anytime if anything happens."
Su Yutang was too lazy to listen to his nonsense anymore. She reached out and took Gu Xizhou's hand, walked straight past him, and slammed the door shut.
He Xun watched the two walk away side by side, their fingers intertwined, his heart filled with a mix of bitterness and confusion.
He simply couldn't understand it.
Gu Chengyan and Gu Huaiye both care about Su Yutang. How come now, even Gu Xizhou, the young master of the Gu family who has always been inconspicuous, has taken a liking to her?
How many men are still around Tangtang?
Gu Xizhou didn't ask any more questions, and simply followed Su Yutang forward.
His gaze fell on their clasped hands, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up.
Not long after, the two arrived at the Gu family's residence.
As soon as I stepped into the main hall, I saw Gu Ruyan sitting in the main seat.
Gu Chengyan and Gu Huaiye stood beside her.
When the two brothers saw their third brother appear with Su Yutang, a hint of surprise flashed across their eyes, but due to the occasion, they did not ask any further questions.
Su Yutang looked up at Gu Ruyan and greeted her, "Hello, Aunt Gu, what brings you here?"
Gu Ruyan's originally cold and serious expression instantly changed into a kind and gentle look.
"Yutang, I misunderstood you before. Now that I've recovered, I've come to terms with it. I'm getting old and can't manage so many things anymore. I might as well just enjoy my old age by tending to my flowers, growing plants, playing mahjong, and traveling."
Upon hearing this, Gu Chengyan's face showed a hint of relief: "Mom, it's best that you think this way."
Gu Huaiye scoffed lightly: "Mom, if you had done this earlier, things wouldn't have turned out like this."
The eldest and second eldest brothers had no doubts about Gu Ruyan's change, simply believing that she had truly come to her senses.
Standing next to Su Yutang, Gu Xizhou didn't believe for a second that this woman would suddenly become so kind.
Gu Ruyan felt uncomfortable under Gu Xizhou's cold gaze.
"Xizhou, you've come too. Since you're here, let's all have lunch together later. It's so nice for the whole family to get along so well."
After saying that, she pretended to get up and walked to Su Yutang, gently taking her hand.
"Yutang, the reason I called you here today is to tell you that no matter which of my three sons you end up with, I will no longer stop you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Chengyan and Gu Huaiye breathed a sigh of relief. As long as their mother didn't stop them, they would have no more reservations and could do everything in their power to pursue Su Yutang.
As for who will ultimately win her heart, that depends on their own abilities.
Su Yutang understood instantly.
Gu Ruyan has changed her tactics and is waiting for her.
She didn't believe this woman would genuinely accept her; she suspected she was up to no good.
She used to openly target them, but now she's putting on a show of being a loving mother, trying to coax her two sons back to her side.
If Gu Ruyan can pretend, then why can't Su Yutang?
This old man wants to outwit her, but she'll outwit him even more.
Su Yutang immediately put on a well-behaved and sensible appearance.
"Aunt Gu, I believe we will get along very well in the future. Your three sons are all so good to me."
She tilted her head slightly, her tone both innocent and boastful.
"Cheng Yan is very generous. He bought me a car, jewelry, all kinds of beautiful and sexy lingerie, and even gave me the position of finance manager in my company."
"Huaiye will give me shoulder and leg massages on his own initiative. He will obediently do whatever I ask him to do, and... he is so good at licking."
"Xizhou is the most considerate. He even went to my place last night and cleaned the whole house spotlessly. He even hand-washed each of my personal clothes."
Finally, she looked at Gu Ruyan with a sincere expression, her eyes full of envy.
"Aunt Gu, you are so blessed to have three such wonderful sons! I am so envious of you!"
Su Yutang's casual boasting was like a series of sharp needles, piercing Gu Ruyan's heart.
Her face darkened inch by inch.
Cheng Yan actually let her into Gu's Group and even gave her the position of financial manager. Isn't this tantamount to handing the company's lifeline to her?
And Huaiye, he actually massaged her shoulders and legs?
She, his own mother, raised him for so many years, and he never once took the initiative to massage her shoulders or legs, yet now he is so subservient to a woman.
Still licking? Where are you licking?
As for Gu Xizhou...
She treated him badly.
But recently, she has clearly been trying to ease the tension between mother and son, and her attempts to make amends have been met with his cold rejection.
It turns out that he reserved all his tenderness, attentiveness, and gentleness for the woman in front of him.
You even went to someone's house to clean it?
He even washed her underwear by hand.
This is absolutely outrageous!
Standing to the side, Gu Chengyan and Gu Huaiye fixed their sharp gazes on Gu Xizhou.
The two of them had been competing openly and secretly for a while, but who would have thought that in the end, their usually inconspicuous third brother would find a loophole.
Besides, when did Gu Xizhou become so concerned about Su Yutang?
Doesn't he have a wife?
