The mind-reading fake heiress changes her fate by eating melons.
Chapter 259 They got into stand-in literature so many years ago.
Gu Chenming was speechless. The development of events was not exactly the same as he had expected, but it was also completely unrelated.
But then Yan Yu added insult to injury:
"I told you long ago, don't treat people like uncles and aunts everywhere."
Gu Chenming never expected things to develop in this direction. He originally wanted to scheme against An Ling, but now he has become the villain who sows discord.
His current situation is also awkward. If he leaves directly, he will seem useless, like someone who has been right and can only slink away.
But if he were to directly refute them, he would clearly be facing three opponents, plus An Ling, who for some reason hadn't taken the initiative to stand up for him today. Not only would he have no chance of winning, but he might also continue to be challenged.
As a result, Gu Chenming could only stand there awkwardly and angrily glaring at Yan Yu, but he couldn't say a word.
"Why are you all here?" Pei Yuning asked Qiu Nian and An Luo to go find An Ling, but they didn't return after a long wait, so she and An Shuhai came looking for her.
She noticed that the atmosphere seemed a bit off, and she didn't know what had happened to the children, but since this was An's family banquet, Pei Yuning hoped to avoid trouble.
So she looked at Gu Chenming and said with a smile:
"Chen Ming is here too. Perfect timing. Someone from your Gu family just delivered a gift. It was prepared by Shu Yun and Yan Ming. They said it was a gift from their elders to Qiu Nian and An Luo, but they are currently abroad and have some business to attend to, so they sent the gift over first."
“Xiaoling will get one too,” Pei Yuning said, taking three boxes from An Shuhai and distributing them to her three children. “Remember to thank your uncle and aunt later.”
Anling opened it and found it was a watch.
Among the onlookers, someone immediately recognized it, saying that it was a watch with only ten pieces produced worldwide, priced at around five million, and its current market price should be even higher.
The main reason is that the quantity is very small and they are basically not circulated in the market. The Gu family actually gave away three of them at once, and that was just as a greeting gift. It can be seen that the two families have a very good relationship.
It seems that while the elders have a good relationship, there appears to be some problems among the younger generation.
After distributing the gifts, Pei Yuning turned to Gu Chenming and said:
"Chenming, please thank your parents for me. The children really like the gift."
But what exactly are they doing abroad? We hardly ever see them all year round, and they won't tell us when we ask. Do you know what they're busy with?
Gu Chenming's expression was very strange. Although he had the respectful expression one would show when facing an elder, his face was very stiff, and his eyes kept looking at the gifts in An Ling's hands, with a strange feeling of jealousy in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, Aunt Pei, I don't know either. Maybe she's just traveling around the world."
Hearing this answer, Pei Yuning was somewhat surprised, but more than that, she felt strange.
If it were just a round-the-world trip, why couldn't they tell Pei Yuning the truth when she asked them? So there must be other reasons.
To her surprise, Gu Chenming, their son, didn't know either.
Or does he actually know, but just doesn't want to say?
Unlike Pei Yuning, An Ling's focus was on Gu Chenming's inexplicable jealousy.
Is Gu Chenming short of money lately?
[It's just three watches, why does he have to act so envious and jealous?]
But she quickly realized why Gu Chenming had a problem with An Ling, based on the original novel's explanation.
If he were a "psychopath" who would be so jealous that he wanted to destroy An Ling and the entire An family just by seeing Gu's parents holding An Ling and playing with her, then his reaction to seeing Gu's parents give gifts to all three children of the An family would be very much in line with the character's established personality.
[Sigh, I really want to know what Gu Chenming is thinking.]
An Ling entered Gu Chenming's name into the character search tool as usual.
Although she failed repeatedly, she never gave up.
Whenever I think of Gu Chenming, I'll casually type his name in and try it out.
After all, this is the person she is most wary of right now. She can't be completely at ease until she finds out what Gu Chenming is up to behind the scenes.
Anling clicked on the query without much hope, expecting to get the same blank panel as before.
She habitually prepared to close the query device, but just before she could do so, she noticed that the panel had changed.
For the first time ever, information related to Gu Chenming popped up on the panel!
What happened? How did they suddenly find out?
Because it was so unexpected, An Ling could hardly believe it.
But upon closer inspection, the content that popped up was indeed Gu Chenming's.
However, his search results were different from those of other people that Anling had searched for before.
Others will see two pieces of content: one is the original setting, and the other is the actual situation in the real world.
If the character is not mentioned at all in the original text, then the part about the character's background in the original text is completely blank.
But Gu Chenming's situation was exactly the opposite.
He only has the part about the original setting, while the other part about the real world is completely blank.
Although Anling didn't know why this was happening, having any information was much better than not being able to find anything at all.
The first thing she did after realizing what had happened was to investigate where Gu Chenming's hatred for her and the An family came from.
The An family was also very curious about this question, so after hearing An Ling say that she could find Gu Chenming's information, they waited for her to continue explaining.
An Shuhai and Pei Yuning have a very good relationship with Gu Chenming's parents. Putting aside the friendship between the An and Gu families, judging from their personal relationship, An's parents do not want there to be any irreconcilable conflicts between them.
But after waiting for a while, they didn't hear An Ling continue speaking. Instead, they saw An Ling glance in their direction several times, and her eyes were very strange. She would look at An Shuhai, then at Pei Yuning, and then back and forth between the two of them.
An's parents felt extremely uncomfortable being scrutinized by their daughter. They felt like poor students whose homework had been randomly selected by the teacher, filled with anxiety as they awaited their final judgment.
What exactly did Anling find out?
Surely it's not that Gu's parents really have some deep-seated hatred towards them?
[I knew Gu Chenming's hatred was absurd. How could he hate me just because my parents were nice to me? Turns out his parents and my parents had such a past!]
An's parents: Ah? What happened in the past?
Uncle Gu and Aunt Zhou are quite trendy; they actually got into body double fiction so many years ago.
