Chapter 72: Pampering Lu Miao
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
It was already night time when she returned to the Gu residence.
Gu Jinxi and Gu Ziheng were watching television with Shen Qinghe in the living room.
Seeing the two of them return together, Shen Qinghe was so happy that she could not close her mouth.
She hurriedly called Lu Miao to sit beside her.
She did not know where the two of them had gone on a date in private. She only hated that time had passed too slowly and that Lu Miao was too young.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be long before she could have a grandson.
Gu Jinxi eagerly gave up his seat to Lu Miao and even took the initiative to tell her about his studies at home for the day.
The living room soon became lively.
At the side, Gu Ziheng hesitated for a moment before saying, “Mom, it’s rare for Second Brother to come back. Let Xingyu come out and reunite with us.” The atmosphere instantly fell silent.
Shen Qinghe paused and said directly, ” She made a mistake and should be punished.
She would come out when she admitted her mistake.”
“But she’s still injured. Can’t we wait until she recovers before slowly reflecting on her actions?”Gu Ziheng was anxious.
Gu Jinxi, who was beside her, snorted. ” Sure, get her to apologize to Second Sister-in-law immediately.”
When Gu Ziheng heard this, he glared at him angrily. ” Gu Jinxi, Xingyu is injured. Are you really going to watch as her condition becomes so serious until she’s hospitalized?”
He also wanted Gu Xingyu to apologize, but his sister had been spoiled for too long and was as stubborn as a donkey.
He really couldn’t do anything to her at the moment, so he could only plead for her first.
“Ha, she deserved it.” Gu Jinxi snorted coldly.
“Enough, you two stop arguing.”
Shen Qinghe interrupted their argument and reached for an orange on the coffee table and handed it to Lu Miao.
“Auntie Xiu went to the orchard to pick these oranges today. They’re very fresh.”
Gu Ziheng could only turn his head to Gu Shiyan for help.”Second brother, Xingyu has already been punished. Can you let her out of the ancestral hall first?”
“I’ll persuade her afterwards.”
He had gone to the ancestral hall to visit Gu Xingyu during dinner. The injury on her hand was still swollen and she could not eat.
In just two short days, she was so haggard that her face had become thinner.
“Let her stay in the ancestral hall.”
Gu Shiyan did not look up, his voice cold.
He reached out and took the orange from Lu Miao’s hand, peeled it carefully, removing even the white pith from the orange segments. After making it clean and neat, he handed it back to Lu Miao.
There were many branches in the Gu family.
When their father passed away that year, Gu Shiyan was only sixteen years old. Gu Ziheng and Gu Jinxi were even younger.
In addition, her eldest brother, Gu Jingci, had left home long ago and had not
returned for so many years. Shen Qinghe also had no experience in managing a company.
Gu Shiyan had to face the watchful eyes of other branches, while at home, he had to take care of everyone. The vast Gu family relied solely on Gu Shiyan to hold it together.
The huge Gu Corporation and family were all supported by Gu Shiyan alone.
Therefore, in the eyes of Gu Ziheng and his younger siblings, Gu Shiyan was like an elder in the Gu family.
His words were often more authoritative than Shen Qinghe’s. If he said no, it meant that there was no room for discussion.
Unless…
Gu Ziheng subconsciously looked up at Lu Miao.
At this moment, she was sitting quietly.
In the entire Gu family, the only person who could change the situation and save Xingyu from the ancestral hall was her.
However, when he thought of his conversation with Lu Miao in the morning, he did not have the face to beg her.
Seeing the lively scene of their family reunion in the living room, Gu Ziheng had to lower his head and go see Gu Xingyu on his own.
Shen Qinghe smiled and squeezed Lu Miao’s hand. She deliberately explained, “Don’t think too much. I punished Xingyu not only because of this incident. She has been spoiled by the family for too long and has completely lost her sense of propriety. She doesn’t even understand the most basic rules and manners. This time, she was lucky that you and Professor Wen didn’t hold her accountable. But what if it were someone else? At that time, it would not be a matter of getting slapped. ”
No one would tolerate her unconditionally like her family.
She could be considered to have used this incident to teach Gu Xingyu a good lesson.
Lu Miao nodded. She was not that saintly and did not plan to plead for Gu Xingyu.
Gu Jinxi was now a complete fan of Lu Miao’s. He asked about her well-being, poured her tea, and peeled apples. He wished he could follow her all the time.
Gu Shiyan looked at the person standing between him and Lu Miao. For the first time, he felt that his younger brother was so annoying.
He had promised to accompany Lu Miao the next morning, so it was a rare occasion for Gu Shiyan to have a restful night at home.
The next morning, after Lu Miao went downstairs to have breakfast with them, they left the house together.
When they arrived at the school gate, just as Lu Miao was about to step off the car, Gu Shiyun reached out and took her backpack directly from her hands. He insisted on personally escorting her to the classroom, not just stopping at the school gate.
His handsome appearance was already eye-catching, and his long, straight legs were simply extraordinary. Under his tailor-made suit, his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs were perfectly accentuated. Among the students in school uniforms, he was extremely eye-catching.
His every move was elegant and noble.
The male students who were usually regarded as the most attractive in the school, the so-called “school grass” and “heartthrob,” looked like little gray dogs compared to him.
The girls who passed by felt as if there were a thousand shrieking chickens in their hearts.
F * ck, f * ck, what is someone else’s boyfriend? This is more like it! !!
While they were still struggling to study for the college entrance examination and didn’t know where their future boyfriend was.
Lu Miao had already reached the peak of her life!
The main point was that not only was he rich and handsome, but he was also attentive and doted on Lu Miao.
He even had to carry her schoolbag for her.
This was simply a winner in life!
It was not until they reached the classroom and Lu Miao sat in her seat that Gu Shiyan placed the bag that he had been carrying all the way on her desk.
He bent over considerately and looked at her. ” I’ll pick you up in the afternoon. Remember to call me anytime if there’s anything. ‘
Lu Miao held her forehead. ” Mm. ‘
She thought of Gu Shiyan’s reaction when he heard Shen Muhan scold him for abusing her on the phone yesterday.
Was he trying to prove to Shen Muhan that he did not abuse her?
Was this necessary?
She couldn’t believe it. Gu Er-ye, who held great influence in both the political and business world and wouldn’t even blink in front of the president, had such a childish side.
Gu Shiyan chuckled and turned around to leave.
Su MO was so excited that she immediately rushed to Lu Miao.
“D * mn, boss, the legendary Mr Gu personally sent you to the classroom and even helped you carry your schoolbag like a lackey!
This is too cool!”
