Zhao Yan woke up the next day to find that Lin Xiaozhou had disappeared.
He only left a message.
—
That night, Gu Chu slept in the Song family’s manor.
Early the next morning, Gu Chu rubbed her eyes and got out of bed. This was her great-grandfather’s house, and she did not dare to sleep in. She had to leave a perfect impression on her great-grandfather.
Gu Chu quickly got out of bed.
She went to the bathroom and washed her chubby little face in the mirror. She even put some fragrant children’s skincare products on her face.
Then she carefully combed her hair and bangs.
Then she changed into a light pink dress…
After confirming that she was cute and well-behaved in the mirror and had two sweet dimples when she smiled, Gu Chu prepared to go downstairs.
…
Gu Manxi, Song Chen, and Grandfather Song were not people who liked to sleep in. When they woke up early and the whole family was having breakfast, Grandfather Song was very happy.
His son-in-law had finally achieved something! He had finally found a wife!
Not only had he found a wife, but he also had a cute little great-granddaughter!
Grandfather Song woke up several times in the middle of the night with a smile.
“Manxi, in the future, if you encounter any problems at work, you must not bear it alone. With the Song family behind your back, no one can bully you!” Grandfather Song said generously.
Manxi was the future mistress of the Song family!
She had to be domineering!
Gu Manxi was slightly embarrassed. She didn’t know what to say, so she could only thank him in a low voice.
But Song Chen said, “Grandpa, don’t worry. I will protect Manxi –”
“Alright, shut up! Your brain can only be used for business. If it weren’t for my help, you might have let Manxi down for the rest of your life.” Grandfather Song looked at him with disappointment.
What a useless brat!
The gift I gave my great-granddaughter last night was actually stolen in front of everyone!
Useless!
“Your two uncles aren’t simple people.” Grandfather song shook his head and exhorted, “Your father left early. They didn’t have anyone to suppress them, so they had thoughts they shouldn’t have. Now, Song Chen, you’re too strong to be dealt with. They only know how to pick on the weak.”
“Chu Chu is only five years old — oh no, she’s already six years old. Children are the most vulnerable.”
Grandfather Song was already planning for the future.
The Song family wasn’t a harmonious bunch either.
Relatives who coveted Song Chen’s wealth and power often schemed in secret. Originally, Song Chen had never married, so they didn’t take it to heart.
But now, not only did Song Chen have a wife, he also had a child! In other words, the next successor of the Song family was Gu Chu.
How could those people swallow their anger? They would definitely make a move against Gu Chu. The child was still young. Who knew when an accident would happen?
Song Chen’s gaze was calm.
Song Chen obviously knew what those relatives were thinking. It wasn’t easy to be part of a wealthy family in the capital.
He would do everything in his power to protect Chu Chu.
As her father!
“Mama, Grandpa Song, Uncle Song — good morning.” Gu Chu walked downstairs happily in her little slippers.
Seeing her cute little great-granddaughter, the seriousness on Grandpa Song’s face suddenly disappeared. He reached out his hand to Gu Chu amiably. “You woke up really early. Are you hungry? Grandpa Song asked the kitchen to prepare your favorite pastries.”
“Thank you, Grandpa Song. I’m so hungry. You must eat a lot of food!”
“Haha.”
The moment Gu Chu appeared, the scene immediately became harmonious.
Laughter could be heard from time to time.
The Song family’s mansion, which had been cold for several years, seemed to have gained a fresh and bright aura at this moment.. It turned from being lifeless to full of vitality.
