Gu Xiangque, "..."

He didn't expect Xiaohua to want to go.

Because she was uncomfortable.

You should be resting at home.

At this moment, Xiaohua also noticed the surprise on her father's face, and she wondered if she had been too happy.

She obediently walked up to her father, her chubby little hands tugging at his sleeve, and gently shook her head.

She pleaded, "Daddy, can you take me to my little sister Zijing's birthday party? I want to go." Of course, if her father disagreed, then so be it.

She didn't absolutely have to go.

I just feel like there will be lots of kids at Zijing's birthday party, and lots of delicious food and fun activities.

Staying at home is too boring.

She wanted to go out.

"can."

Gu Xiangque agreed.

But he was still worried about Xiaohua's health, so he said, "If you feel unwell in a little while, be sure to tell me so we can go home."

"I know, Dad, don't worry. I'll go tell Mom to get ready now, let's go!" Xiaohua ran very fast.

Gu Xiangque, "You..."

He wanted to say, "Don't call me Bai Mengjie."

Gu Xiangque also disliked bringing Bai Mengjie to any events.

He has never taken her with him in the past five years.

Not to mention that today is Xiao Linfeng's daughter's birthday party.

But Xiaohua ran too fast.

He wouldn't listen to him at all.

Seeing that Xiao Hua was sick, Gu Xiangque didn't say anything more. Perhaps it would be good to bring Bai Mengjie along, so that she could lend a hand if Xiao Hua was not feeling well.

"Mommy mommy."

Xiao Hua went to Bai Mengjie's room. "Mom, hurry up and change your clothes!"

Bai Mengjie: "..."

Why change clothes?

She doesn't quite understand.

Instead, she subconsciously avoided Xiaohua's outstretched hand.

She didn't like Xiaohua touching her.

Xiao Hua is the daughter of Gu Xiangque and Mu Mian.

Bai Mengjie hated it from the bottom of her heart.

Xiaohua, however, was very dependent on her mother. She didn't even notice the look of disgust on her mother's face. Instead, she explained to her mother, "Today is Zijing's birthday, and Dad said he's going to take us with him."

Mom, hurry up and change your clothes.

You should dress nicely.

Bai Mengjie: ? ? ?

Is it Xiao Zijing's birthday?

Is this Mo Yu and Xiao Linfeng's daughter?

Bai Mengjie was naturally aware of their relationship.

Xiao Linfeng and Gu Xiangque have been good friends for many years, and Mo Yu is also Mu Mian's good friend. Today is Xiao Zijing's birthday, and Mu Mian will probably be there too.

Wouldn't we run into the Xiao family soon?

Knowing that Mu Mian might go, Bai Mengjie felt uneasy.

It’s really haunting.

You can run into them anywhere.

It seemed she had no choice but to go, but Bai Mengjie was more concerned about Gu Xiangque's feelings. She squatted down and placed her hands on Xiaohua's shoulders, "Did Dad really ask me to go with you?"

She was wondering what Gu Xiangque really meant.

Was he genuinely trying to impress people by taking her out, putting on a show of marital harmony, or was he deliberately bringing her along because Mu Mian would also be there?

Xiaohua hesitated for a moment.

Of course, she asked her father for it on her own initiative.

She hopes her parents can spend more time together.

What is there to say?

Feelings can be cultivated.

If Mom and Dad spend more time together, they will develop feelings for each other, and then Mom and Dad won't get divorced, right?

Xiaohua then said to her mother, "Of course it's Dad's idea." She nudged her mother, "Mom, hurry up and change your clothes and put on makeup."

"You need to dress up nicely so Daddy will like you."

Bai Mengjie went to change her clothes.

She naturally knows how to dress up beautifully.

Looking back over the past five years, she really hasn't taken the time to dress herself up properly.

Because Gu Xiangque rarely went home.

At first, she would dress up carefully every day and wait for him to come home, always thinking that she was beautiful enough so that Gu Xiangque would look at her more often.

But he didn't even go home.

It’s been a long time.

Bai Mengjie didn't care anymore.

I don't care as much about dressing up anymore.

But she will tidy up carefully today, because Mu Mian is here too.

Presumably, the most important reason for Mu Mian's return to China this time is because of Gu Xiangque; she is probably unwilling to accept the divorce she had back then.

They wanted to take Gu Xiangque back.

Since it's two women vying for one man, Bai Mengjie won't lose. She won't lose to Mu Mian, whether it was five years ago or five years later, her pride won't allow her to lose.

When Bai Mengjie finished getting ready and came downstairs, Gu Xiangque and Xiaohua had already changed their clothes.

Gu Xiangque really liked wearing formal attire.

However, he is indeed very suitable for it.

The suit looked very restrained on him, highlighting his masculine charm, and he happened to be a very charming man.

Men usually become more attractive as they get older.

Gu Xiangque was that kind of man.

He doesn't look old at all.

Time has been kind to his face and his figure; you can't tell his real age from his appearance, but his temperament is particularly captivating to women.

They easily attract the opposite sex.

He's really handsome.

He was handsome in Bai Mengjie's eyes, and since he was handsome in her aesthetic sense, she took a few more glances at him.

"Dad, Mom is coming down."

Little Flower tugged at her father's arm, urging him to look at her mother.

Gu Xiangque was very perfunctory.

But because it was his daughter's request, he watched it anyway.

Bai Mengjie wore a white dress today.

She has many dresses, but white ones are the most common, just like back when she was in school, everyone called her a goddess.

She is also the white moonlight in many people's hearts.

She looked especially beautiful in a white dress back then, and she even became famous because of a white dress, which made her known to more people.

But in Gu Xiangque's mind, it was just an ordinary matter.

He cares more about what is suitable.

It's not about how beautiful or popular the girl is.

"Mommy is so beautiful, like a fairy!" Little Flower clapped her hands and cheered. "Daddy, don't you think so? Isn't Mommy very beautiful?"

Gu Xiangque gave a reluctant reply.

"Let's go!"

Little Flower walked in the middle.

With her parents holding her hands, she felt like the happiest child in the world.

I wish every day could be like this.

She'll be ecstatic.

Bai Mengjie was also very happy.

Her gaze never left Gu Xiangque. Although she had been disappointed in this man many times, she would still love him without hesitation.

This is a liking that's ingrained in your bones.

The longer it goes on, the more I like it; it's already ingrained in my bones.

Only Gu Xiangque paid no attention to these things.

He walked straight ahead.

There was no emotion whatsoever.

**

Xiao family.

Li Xiang and his wife have arrived.

They arrived relatively late.

The Xiao family's courtyard was already full of guests, all of whom everyone knew. Madam Li naturally went to sit with the ladies and young women from wealthy families.

They were talking about recent events.

Li Xiang is a man, so naturally he would look for someone his own age.

"Mrs. Li, has your son Li Xiang's marriage been arranged?"

Mrs. Li: "..."

She knew people would ask this question.

After all, the Li family is doing very well in business, so there's not much to discuss. Saying too much will only stir up hatred. Business has been tough these past few years, and many people are only superficially successful.

She may be called a wealthy lady or a young lady, but her actual status is not that prestigious.

Life was naturally tough.

Someone like Madam Li was considered one of the most prominent people present, someone with considerable influence.

"Oh, Madam Wang, what a question you ask. Li Xiang is the heir of the Li family. He is good-looking and capable. How could the Li family lack a daughter-in-law?"

It's just that Li Xiang has high standards and doesn't look down on ordinary wealthy families. Don't you agree, Mrs. Li?

Mrs. Li smiled.

Suddenly I feel like it's all so boring.

In addition, Li Xiang insisted on being with Mu Mian, but she didn't like Mu Mian, so when people mentioned Li Xiang's marriage, Madam Li was even more unhappy.

They're too lazy to even reply.

At this time.

Mu Mian has arrived.

She drove herself here.

He parked the car outside and came in alone.

She wasn't very familiar with these people.

Even if she had met some people two or three times, she didn't get to know them well, and she would just go her own way, which seemed to show her strong personality.

"who is she?"

From the moment Mu Mian walked in, she attracted the attention of a group of wealthy wives and young ladies.

Who can blame Mu Mian for having such good conditions?

She is beautiful.

She looks stunning in any outfit.

Although she wasn't dressed up to her fullest today, she was more dressed than usual, so she looked beautiful and naturally attracted everyone's attention.

In addition, nobody knew her.

They became even more curious about her identity.

"Madam Li, do you know her? Who is she? She looks quite pretty, and her temperament is special, unlike ordinary people. I wonder which family's young lady she is."

Mrs. Li rolled her eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. "How would I know him?"

She didn't want to know her at all.

She would never tell these people that the woman's name was Mu Mian, the woman her son had his eye on, and that she might actually marry into the Li family in the future.

Mrs. Li felt a headache coming on just thinking about it.

How could I possibly speak up for Mu Mian?
