Chapter 122: Chapter 99 Introduction to Objects

Ya Huijun’s expression was somewhat awkward, “No… No, of course not!”

She herself was still very confused at this point.

But when she thought about it carefully, the situation did seem quite strange indeed.

After all, it was just a poor painter, someone she wouldn’t have bothered to even give a second glance in the past.

But this time.

For some odd reason, she had added the painter’s contact information.

During their occasional exchanges, she found they had similar hobbies and compatible world views, making her feel a surprising sense of closeness.

As a result.

Was he someone explicitly sent to get close to her?

And she would be so infatuated with this man that it would cause her eldest son endless headaches?

Although she had no idea why Ye Xiao knew these things.

But now.

Ya Huijun felt, this might be a revelation from heaven!

It was as if the heavens couldn’t bear to watch the original destiny play out and had thus granted Ye Xiao the ability to foresee the future, allowing her to hear about it!

Ya Huijun’s expression kept changing.

Having been forewarned, she refused to believe she would fall for such a trick again.

But the key issue now was.

Who exactly was the person behind all this?

Whoever it was that dared to pull such a vile stunt had better be prepared to face the Gu Family’s retaliation.

A cold light flickered in Ya Huijun’s eyes.

She may have stepped back from dealing with affairs in recent years, but if anyone thought her a naive woman oblivious to the ways of the world, they were sorely mistaken.

After the scare, Ya Huijun was truly very grateful to Ye Xiao. She couldn’t help but take Ye Xiao’s hand firmly, “Xiaoxiao, the more I see you, the more I like you. In the future, you must come to our house more often, okay?”

Ye Xiao looked at Ya Huijun’s sincere demeanor and agreed obediently.

A smile appeared on Ya Huijun’s face, “My eldest son is always so stern-looking, clumsy with words, and is several years older than you. Other than his ability to make money, he’s practically good for nothing.”

As she spoke, Ya Huijun seemed to grow more disdainful.

Gu Yan was dumbfounded and couldn’t help but say, “Mom!”

“Shut up,” Ya Huijun glared at him, but her face was all smiles when she turned back to Ye Xiao. “In the future, if you find anything disagreeable about him, feel free to hit him or scold him. If he’s unhappy, I’ll help you punish him.”

Ye Xiao felt awkward and coughed lightly, “That’s not it. Uncle Gu, as an elder, has been quite considerate towards me.”

Ye Xiao said it with all sincerity.

Gu Yan’s face instantly fell.

Not the elder comment again!

Ya Huijun glanced at Gu Yan and immediately understood.

It seemed her foolish son wasn’t just fervent, but the girl hadn’t even noticed his ardor.

She gave him a somewhat disparaging look and said with a smile, “Don’t mind him. Xiaoxiao, you’re about to graduate, have you thought about finding a boyfriend? I have quite a few outstanding prospects. For example, the young man from the Wang Family, he graduated from a top international university and has his own business, and he’s quite sweet-tongued too. Then there’s the young man from the Ding Family; he’s average in capabilities but scores high on obedience, a real good boy, and there’s also…”

Ya Huijun took Ye Xiao by the arm and started introducing her to potential suitors as they walked.

Gu Cheng looked up at Gu Yan.

Great.

His big brother’s face had gone completely dark.

Gu Cheng couldn’t help but speak with a hint of schadenfreude, “Big brother, those guys Mom is mentioning sound pretty decent.”

Gu Yan shot him a cold glance.

Gu Cheng immediately shut up.

There was no helping it.

Big brother’s intimidating presence was just that terrifying.

Gu Yan didn’t have time to continue reprimanding Gu Cheng, as he hurriedly followed them.

If Ye Xiao really took any of it to heart and went off looking for the young master from the Wang Family or the scion of the Ding Family, he would be infuriated on the spot.

Gu Yan quickly caught up and grabbed hold of Ye Xiao.

“Uncle Gu?” Ye Xiao looked at him, puzzled.

“What are you doing?” Ya Huijun glanced sideways at Gu Yan.

All this dilly-dallying, and the girl doesn’t even realize you’re pursuing her.

So what’s wrong with me introducing her to a few good men?

Gu Yan spoke with a calm face, “Mom, Xiaoxiao has a curfew, I need to take her back to the Ye Family.”

A curfew?

Ye Xiao was somewhat puzzled, as she had not heard her parents mention it.

However.

The commotion was all over, and it was indeed time to go home.

So Ye Xiao did not object.

“Ah.” Ya Huijun, upon hearing this, couldn’t help feeling a bit disappointed.

She glared at Gu Yan, “Then make sure you escort her home safely.”

“Don’t worry.” Gu Yan nonchalantly pulled Ye Xiao over.

He definitely couldn’t let Ye Xiao continue to stay with Ya Huijun.

Whether he could catch up with Ye Xiao was another matter.

His own mother leading the charge in sabotaging him, that was just two words: outrageous!

“Xiaoxiao, next time you’re free, you must come over to our place. Auntie hasn’t had the chance to properly host you yet,” Ya Huijun said, reluctant to part.

Ye Xiao responded one by one, and only then Ya Huijun let the two of them leave.

Watching the two depart.

Ya Huijun turned her head and saw a smiling Gu Cheng.

Ya Huijun couldn’t help but sneer, “Put those big teeth away! Gu Cheng, you’ve really grown up, thinking I don’t know you came here to meet Bingtong, right?”

She and the servants had arrived almost simultaneously, but seeing Gu Yan and Ye Xiao step forward, she decided not to come out.

This, however, gave her quite a show to watch.

Gu Cheng’s smile disappeared at once, and he said gloomily, “Mom, haven’t I said it already? I won’t have any contact with her in the future.”

“You better stick to that,” Ya Huijun warned, eyeing him, “Otherwise, I will break your back too, and having you lying in bed the rest of your life would be better than being played by a woman.”

Gu Cheng felt even more depressed.

This was exactly what his elder brother had said.

Was he really that unreliable?

But on second thought.

If he hadn’t heard Ye Xiao’s heart’s voice…

It seemed, indeed, he was that unreliable.

At that moment, Gu Cheng felt so uneasy that he dared not speak.

After a while.

He recalled the drama about to unfold with his own mother and suddenly felt justified again.

Wait a minute.

He was unreliable.

It made sense for his brother to scold him.

But his mother, it seemed, hadn’t done so well herself.

Gu Cheng couldn’t help but look at his own mother, “Mom, having seen what happened to me, don’t you have any reflections? Like, it’s hard to know a person’s true intentions. Or that one should be more cautious in life. Or that you shouldn’t throw everything aside for the so-called love?”

Ya Huijun looked at him unamused, “So you’ve had your reflections. Then when you get home, write a 10,000-word reflection for me; I want to see it first thing tomorrow morning.”

Gu Cheng:

Forget it, forget it.

After all, he was the only one who could hear Ye Xiao’s inner voice.

Saving the Gu Family, that was the mission given to him by the heavens.

Besides, he didn’t have much else to do.

In the upcoming period, he definitely had to keep a close watch on his mother.

If any artist or the like came near, tie them up and throw them into the river.

“Alright, let’s go home,” Ya Huijun said calmly.

Once back, she would need to thoroughly investigate that artist’s background.

Mother and son, each with their own thoughts, said nothing aloud.

At the gate of the Ye Family.

Gu Yan stopped the car.

“Thank you, Uncle Gu,” Ye Xiao said with crescent eyes, as she opened the door to get out.

“Wait,” Gu Yan grabbed her in an instant.
