The love story of a wealthy family amid anti-fraud storm at the border

"Yuer, this is where my mother lives. She has always wanted to meet you."

When Ling Yue heard that Gu Chenxin brought her to meet his mother, she couldn't help but feel nervous.

She didn't know what kind of old lady Gu Chenxin's mother would be.

Since childhood, Ling Yue has only had the memory of her father Yuan.

She had never enjoyed maternal love, so at this moment she couldn't help but envy Gu Chenxin in her heart.

She followed Gu Chenxin into the courtyard with a nervous and curious heart.

The courtyard wall is made of simple blue bricks, with lush vines climbing up the top. A few small flowers are occasionally dotted among the green leaves, adding a touch of vitality to the ancient wall.

Walking into the courtyard, a cobblestone path winds forward, with flowers of various colors blooming on both sides. A few butterflies dance among the flowers, as if adding a touch of spirit to this beautiful courtyard.

There is a small pond in the center of the courtyard.

There are several stone benches and a stone table by the pond, which reminds people of the scene of ancient people drinking tea and playing chess here.

The houses in the courtyard are traditional Chinese buildings.

The whole courtyard is filled with a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.

It seems as if time has slowed down here, allowing people to forget the hustle and bustle of the world and enjoy this moment of tranquility and beauty.

A white-haired old lady was sitting gracefully in a rocking chair in the yard, reading a book.

Gu Chenxin's mother is an elegant old lady.

She was wearing a simple yet exquisite light blue cheongsam.

The cheongsam is soft in texture, and the skirt flutters gently with her movements, highlighting her gentle temperament.

Her hair was neatly tied behind her head, with a few strands falling naturally on her cheeks, adding a touch of kindliness and gentle beauty.

Although her face shows signs of aging, one can still imagine how beautiful she was when she was young.

Her eyes are bright and clear, and her lips are soft with a warm smile that makes people feel like spring breeze.

She sat in the rocking chair in the yard, one hand gently placed on her knee and the other holding a book, her fingers long and slender, her nails neatly trimmed.

Her skin is fair and delicate. Although not as tight as that of young people, it exudes a mature charm.

When she saw Gu Chenxin and Ling Yue, a warm smile immediately appeared on her face.

Her eyes were full of love and expectation, making people involuntarily want to get close to her.

She stood up, her movements light and noble.

"Son? You're here? Let me see who the girl you brought today is?"

She walked up to Ling Yue, took her hand, and her every move made people feel safe and warm.

"Is this beautiful girl the Miss Ling you often mentioned to me?"

Her voice was soft and graceful, and her every move exuded a noble temperament.

Gu Chenxin nodded and stood beside her mother, happily introducing Ling Yue:

"Mom, this is Ling Yue. Yue'er, this is my mother."

Ling Yue greeted him with some excitement and some restraint at this moment:

"Hello, aunt!"

Mother Gu looked at her carefully.

"What a smart and beautiful girl. Chen Xin often mentioned you to me, and I finally met you today."

Ling Yue smiled sheepishly. "Auntie, you're too kind."

Mother Gu took Ling Yue's hand and asked her to sit on the chair next to her.

"Come, take a seat. Don't be nervous, just treat this place as your home."

Gu Chenxin felt particularly happy when she saw her mother and Ling Yue chatting happily.

Gu Chenxin sat aside, quietly watching her mother and Ling Yue chatting.

He longed for the day when they could become a family, a family of three, living life like this, talking and laughing every day.

"Ms. Ling, I heard about you from Chen Xin. Thank you for saving him. You are a very strong and brave child. I am very happy that he can meet a girl like you."

Ling Yue glanced at Gu Chenxin, then said to Mother Gu:

"Auntie, Gu Chenxin also mentioned you to me. He said you are a very strong person. He is also very brave and responsible. I believe that he is like this and could not have done without your careful guidance."

Mother Gu smiled, with relief and tears in her eyes.

"Yes, Chen Xin has suffered a lot since he was a child and has always been very sensible. He has sacrificed a lot for me and the entire Gu family's business. I hope he can find someone who truly loves him and will accompany him through the future."

Ling Yue understood the hidden meaning behind Mother Gu's words, and she felt a little complicated.

For a moment, I didn't know how to respond to her.

At this moment, Gu Chenxin hurriedly interrupted:

"Mom, didn't we agree not to mention this to Yue'er when we meet? We are just friends."

Mother Gu glanced at the two of them and smiled lovingly.

"Okay, okay, I won't mention it. You young people should decide yourselves."

Ling Yue looked at Gu Chenxin gratefully, knowing that he was helping her out.

At the same time, her favorable impression of Gu Chenxin increased a little more.

We chatted for a long time.

Ling Yue felt very warmed by Mrs. Gu's gentleness and kindness.

Once upon a time, she wished she could have such maternal love.

She slowly began to understand why Gu Chenxin respected and loved his mother so much. She also understood the original intention of everything he had done along the way.

He was trying to protect his mother!

Before I knew it, it was getting late.

After dinner, Gu Chenxin and Ling Yue said goodbye to Mother Gu and left the courtyard.

On the way back, Ling Yue felt complicated.

She felt Gu Chenxin's sincerity towards her.

Today, spending time with Gu's mother gave her a deeper understanding of Gu Chenxin.

"Yuer, what are you thinking about?" Gu Chenxin asked Ling Yue with concern as she looked at him in deep thought.

"No, I, I was thinking about my mother..." Ling Yue replied with a lost look.

Gu Chenxin listened to what Ling Yue said, his throat trembled slightly, as if he was trying hard to suppress his inner emotions, but couldn't find the right words to comfort her.

The two of them walked in silence all the way, and when they were about to reach the door of their home, Gu Chenxin stopped.

He mustered up his courage and slowly took Ling Yue's hand.

Ling Yue could feel his fingertips trembling slightly, "Yuer, if you want, my mother can also be your mother."

Ling Yue thought about everything that happened today and said, "Thank you, I..."

"Yuer, you don't have to say it," he was nervously worried that Ling Yue's next sentence would be to reject what he said.

He took a deep breath and said to Ling Yue: "I want to tell you that I will always be by your side."

Having said that, he kissed Ling Yue lightly on the forehead and then left without looking back.
