Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 680 - 681: Heartless Departure

Flattery, directed at the wrong person? Gu Xiao opened his mouth, looking bewildered, while Gu Qianqiu glanced at him, questioning how he ended up with a son like this. Could it be hereditary?

Half an hour later.

The dining room.

Dish after dish was served on the table—deep sea lobster, sea cucumber fish maw... and so on. These dishes were quite expensive, priced at thousands in a restaurant.

Then, Ruan Lingyu glanced at Gu Yunxi, who immediately understood and blushed: "Mom, are we really going to drug him?"

"What do you think?"

"I feel so underhanded!"

"Don't you love him?"

"Yes, but..."

"Then it's okay!"

Is this really right? Gu Yunxi secretly thought, is drugging someone necessary for love? Can such love be truly happy?

"Stop being wishy-washy, go get the red wine!" Ruan Lingyu gave Gu Yunxi a sidelong glance, who showed a look of helplessness, took down a bottle of '82 red wine from the wine rack, and after uncorking it, asked, "Really going to drug him?"

"How did I end up with such a wishy-washy daughter? Let go of that man and let me... cough cough... I mean, let go of that bottle and let me do it!" Ruan Lingyu coughed twice, picked up a luminescent cup, and filled it with red wine.

Ruan Lingyu said, "Give me the medicine!"

"Okay!" Gu Yunxi took out a white porcelain bottle and handed it to Ruan Lingyu, who poured the entire bottle of powder into the wine glass, leaving Gu Yunxi dumbfounded.

"Mom, that's enough for several doses, why... why did you pour it all?"

"Ah..." Ruan Lingyu exclaimed, "Why didn't you say so earlier!"

"You didn't ask!"

"Doesn't matter, more medicine, more effective!" Ruan Lingyu replied seriously.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yunxi seemed to say: Mom, are you sure this won't cause trouble? Damn, that's enough for several days, if he drinks it, won't he be ready for a battle lasting three days and nights?

"Yunxi, invite them to eat!" Ruan Lingyu said.

"Okay!" Gu Yunxi nodded, shouted towards the living room, "Dinner is ready!"

As her voice fell, Xiao Tianyu and his group came to the dining room, and Ruan Lingyu pulled out a chair, smilingly said to Xiao Tianyu, "Mr. Xiao, please have a seat!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tianyu glanced at Ruan Lingyu and really sat down, making Ruan Lingyu inwardly delighted, Haha~ Tomorrow, could it be I finally have a grandson in my arms?

After Xiao Tianyu sat down, the others also followed suit, but Xiao Tianyu gave Gu Yunxi a glance, seeing her beautiful eyes avoiding him, her face flushed, unable to meet his gaze.

Thus, Xiao Tianyu surprisingly asked, "Yunxi, you wouldn't have drugged my drink, right?"

"Ah..." Hearing this, Gu Yunxi was stunned, did he... did he see it? It shouldn't be, I was very careful, wasn't I?

Gu Yunxi stammered, "Tianyu, you're joking, do I look like that kind of underhanded person?"

"Yes!" Xiao Tianyu responded seriously.

"..." Gu Yunxi was speechless.

Seeing Gu Yunxi was about to slip up, Ruan Lingyu lightly smiled, "Son-in-law, you... you're really joking, how could Yunxi possibly drug the glass?"

The drug was clearly mine.

"Really not?" Xiao Tianyu's voice was chilly.

"Really not, absolutely not!"

"Why don't we switch glasses?"

"Ah..."

"Just kidding!" Xiao Tianyu laughed coolly.

"Yes yes yes... just kidding, cheers to Mr. Xiao!" Gu Xiao had an obsequious expression.

"I'll toast Mr. Xiao too!"

"Me too!"

"Yunxi, pick up your glass!" Ruan Lingyu nudged Gu Yunxi's back, to catch this golden catch, it's tonight or never, yet Gu Yunxi's beautiful eyes flickered. Drugging, is it really okay?

"If you hesitate, it'll benefit some other woman!" Ruan Lingyu shot a look at Gu Yunxi, "Back when I tricked your dad, this was the trick I used, and then I had you!"

"Ah!" Gu Yunxi was dumbfounded and reluctantly lifted the glass.

But the next second, Xiao Tianyu exclaimed towards the window, "Wow, a UFO!"

At this, everyone including Gu Yunxi looked outside, but there was no UFO outside, all lies, Mr. Xiao is really humorous.

Then, Gu Xiao said to Xiao Tianyu, "Mr. Xiao, you're really joking, there's no UFO!"

"My eyes tricked me!" Xiao Tianyu stated earnestly, "I'll drink first!"

Speaking, Xiao Tianyu downed his drink, making Ruan Lingyu inwardly ecstatic, this guy finally took the bait, daughter, now it's your turn; our life's happiness depends on you!

Next, everyone drank up their glasses.

Gu Yunxi's beautiful eyes flickered, timidly looking at Xiao Tianyu, "Tianyu, are you feeling strange? How about resting in the room?"

"Nope, I'm perfectly normal!" Xiao Tianyu replied seriously, if something were wrong, it's with your mom, seriously, with these tricks, you want to scam me? Don't you know how to spell trouble?

Indeed, a moment later, Ruan Lingyu's face started turning red, overheating, looking absolutely amorous, then seizing the moment when Gu Xiao wasn't paying attention, she threw herself at him.

What's going on?

This... isn't right, why... why does it seem like mom took the aphrodisiac instead?

How did this happen?

Gu Yunxi was baffled, wasn't this guy supposed to have taken the aphrodisiac?

"Hey hey hey, Lingyu, in broad daylight, you want to do what?" Gu Xiao was bewildered, when did this woman become so lustful?

"…" Everyone witnessing this scene was utterly confused, just who took the drug, mom, are you okay?

As for Xiao Tianyu, he sat there indifferently, making Gu Yunxi dumbfounded until now. How could she not understand, the drug was taken by her mom, and Xiao Tianyu was fine.

Slap~

Gu Xiao slapped Ruan Lingyu's face angrily: "Get away, I am not that kind of person, hey hey hey~ What… won't you give up and still come..."

Bang~

Pfft~

Upon hearing, everyone except Xiao Tianyu started retching.

Gu Qianqiu couldn't sit still any longer, coldly remarked to Gu Xiao: "Take this woman home, aren't you embarrassed?"

What's called failing to steal a chicken and losing the bait, this is it.

Trying to drug Xiao Tianyu, really thinking he's just out of kindergarten?

"You're welcome to eat slowly, I'm heading to my room!" With that, Xiao Tianyu stood up, causing Gu Yunxi to panic: "Tianyu, you stop right there!"

"Playing like this, is interesting?" Suddenly, Xiao Tianyu's voice cooled, making Gu Yunxi's body tremble: "You... you knew all along?"

"I should leave now!" With that, Xiao Tianyu's figure flashed, disappearing through the window, making Gu Yunxi's beautiful eyes flicker, watching his back, wanting to stop him but didn't know what to say.

After drugging Xiao Tianyu, does she dare ask him to stay?

Witnessing this scene, Gu Xiao and others were also dumbfounded, has the golden catch really left? Would he really not return? Surely not, this is his home.

Little did they know Xiao Tianyu never regarded this place as home, with properties worldwide, why would he care about just this one?
