Gu Huaizhi just felt a huge sigh of relief in his heart, this damn green tea!

Xu Wan looked up at Gu Huaizhi, "Can you calm down a little?"

"How do you want me to calm down?" Gu Huaizhi said in a deep voice.

Xu Wan looked at Gong Yilu's swollen cheek again and said worriedly, "If you hit him, you can't hit me."

The grievance on Gong Yilu's face twisted for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

The anger on Gu Huaizhi's face froze slightly, and he was almost about to laugh out of anger, but he still straightened the corners of his mouth and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

"Sister-in-law, tell me what's on your mind and we'll work together to find a solution." Gu Jinxuan also spoke quickly.

He didn't know how things had developed to this point. He had always thought that the relationship between his elder brother and sister-in-law was very stable, and he didn't know when Master Gong was dragged into this.

Xu Wan just silently helped the people on the ground up and glanced at them calmly: "You can go back."

"What about grandma? She's not in good health. If she knew, have you thought about the consequences?"

"I'll find a way to talk to grandma." After saying that, Xu Wan and Gong Yilu got into the back seat of the car.

Xu Wan couldn't help but glance at Gu Huaizhi out of the corner of her eye. His deep eyes were fixed on her with a complicated look.

The car drove farther and farther away, and Xu Wan couldn't help but turn his head and look at the person standing there.

"If you are so reluctant to leave, don't leave." Gong Yilu thought he had said something wrong and cried out in pain, "Hiss~"

Xu Wan withdrew his gaze and looked at his swollen left cheek, which looked like a fat-faced bee dog. He couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Gong Yilu looked at her, "How dare you laugh? Who am I doing this for?"

Xu Wan pursed her lips and tried not to laugh out loud.

"You actually said that just because I hit me, I can't hit you. It's really chilling."

"Who made you suddenly act so dramatic and say such irritating words? If I were Gu--" When his name was mentioned, Xu Wan's face changed slightly, but he still pretended to be calm and continued, "If I were him, I would beat you up too."

"Second Master, do we still need to go back to the Gong family?" the driver asked hesitantly.

"Go back, why not go back?" Gong Yilu put down his hand, leaned back in the back seat, and spoke lazily.

The driver didn't say anything and continued driving quietly.

"Won't you give me some time to prepare?" She was asked to meet the Gong family right now, and she was not ready yet.

She could already foresee what kind of commotion Gong Yilu would cause by taking her back. The Gong family would probably not be able to sleep tonight.

"We were planning to leave, but you still insisted on making such a big deal out of it." Xu Wan shook his head and sighed.

"Whether I leave or not, I can't bear to see them living comfortably." He was honest.

"why?"

"They have never given my son and me a peaceful life, so I will naturally give them a taste of their own medicine." Gong Yilu sneered.

Xu Wan looked at him, and her eyes couldn't help but fall on his swollen left cheek, feeling a little distressed.

He also felt Xu Wan's gaze, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, "Feeling sorry for me?"

Xu Wan blinked, retracted his gaze, and explained: "You also said that it was because of me. I think it's normal to feel guilty, isn't it?"

"Actually, that's not necessary. I'll still have to rely on you for support in the future, Miss Xu." He raised his hand and played with her hair.

Xu Wan raised her hand and smoothed back her hair. "Got it! No need to keep nagging in my ear!"

"Ms. Xu has a bad memory. If I don't remind her, I'm afraid she will forget it in a moment." Gong Yilu said slowly.

Xu Wan: “…” He knew all this.

……

The car drove into the manor, with uniformed bodyguards all the way, and finally stopped in front of a luxurious house.

Someone immediately came forward and opened the car door, and Xu Wan and Gong Yilu got out.

Gong Yilu looked at Xu Wan and motioned for her to come over and hold his hand.

Xu Wan looked at the unfamiliar environment in front of him, took a deep breath, walked to his side, and held his hand.

The hall of the Gong family was brightly lit. The old man sat on a mahogany bench, holding a cane in his hand. Although his hair was gray, he still looked majestic.

"Old Master, Young Master Lu is back." someone said.

"You remember to come back." He opened his eyes, slowly looked at Gong Yilu, and immediately noticed the woman beside him.

Gong Yilu has never brought a woman back.

"Why didn't you go to see the daughter of the Jin family?" Old Master Gong asked in a deep voice.

"If you don't want to see me, then don't see me." Gong Yilu said casually.

"What's wrong with the wound on your face?" His voice was sharp. "As a member of the Gong family, getting injured outside is a great shame."

Gong Yilu did not answer, but raised Xu Wan's hand and said, "Don't look for a marriage partner for me anymore. I already have someone I want to marry."

Mr. Gong cast a scrutinizing gaze on Xu Wan: "I won't interfere with how many women you keep outside, but you can only marry a lady from a famous family."

Gong Yilu laughed at himself and said, "I am just an illegitimate child who cannot be seen in public. Which noble lady would be interested in me?"

"Shut up! Anyway, I have someone to choose for your wife. As for her..." Old Master Gong snorted coldly, "Take her back to where you brought her from!"

Mr. Gong's gaze has a very strong sense of oppression. Even an ordinary rich girl would probably feel uneasy.

However, Xu Wan remained calm as ever, just standing quietly beside Gong Yilu.

She was just waiting for Gong Yilu to finish arguing so that he could pull her away and slam the door!

"Grandpa, I will marry no one else in this life!" Gong Yilu's words were loud and clear.

Xu Wan couldn't help but widen his eyes. Gong Yilu was too bold.

The whole hall fell silent in an instant, and the servants couldn't help but secretly look at Xu Wan.

He wanted to see what kind of woman could make the moody Master Lu insist on marrying him.

Mr. Gong was so angry that he laughed, "Okay! Okay! Okay!"

He said "yes" three times in a row, but no one dared to speak.

"I don't know when our Gong family has produced such a romantic man!"

He set his sights on Xu Wan: "What's your name and what's your family background?"

Xu Wan looked at Gong Yilu, who just nodded slightly: "My name is Xu Wan, both my parents are dead, and I have no background."

"Xu Wan..." He frowned, feeling that the name sounded familiar.

"Great-grandfather, has my uncle returned with my aunt?" Gong Yucheng's voice came from the stairs.

When he walked up to Mr. Gong and saw the face of the woman next to Gong Yilu, his expression suddenly changed.

He looked at Xu holding his uncle's arm in astonishment.

"Xu Wan, why are you with my uncle?" He had a bad feeling in his heart.

Gu Huaizhi had just come to him to complain not long ago, but today Xu Wan showed up at the Gong family holding his uncle's hand?

This is ridiculous!
