“First of all,” Su Rui said lightly, “that illegitimate child will never be recognized by the elders of the Guan family. Therefore, unless Meng Yu has sufficient strength, otherwise, I reckon that he will also die on the streets one day.”
Fang Jiao was shocked. Although her own family was quite rich, all the money in the family was earned by her parents. In the future, it would be inherited by her only brother, so there was not much compet.i.tion. Naturally, she did not expect that the power struggle in this rich family would be so intense and direct.
Ye Yu sighed slightly. “As for letting Uncle and the others have another child, I’m afraid it won’t be that simple. It’s one thing if he can give birth. Even if he gives birth, he still has more than ten years to grow up. We don’t even know if he can raise up.”
Fang Jiao quietly shrank to the side, not daring to speak.
She just wanted to show her face in the upper-cla.s.s circles of the capital. She did not dare to provoke such a thing.
She even thought about not looking for Su Rui and Ye Yu next time. After all, Su Rui and Ye Yu were both members of the Guan family. If the Guan family fell, these two families would probably not have an easy time. She did not want to suffer with them.
Originally, they wanted to come out to ease their emotions. They did not expect to meet Shen Xi. Now, their moods were even worse.
At this time, Shen Xi was pulled by Gu Chen and wandering on the streets at night.
Gu Chen looked at the car keys in his hand, then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He raised his hand and threw the keys into an unknown corner behind him.
Shen Xi staggered and followed Gu Chen for a while before asking with a puzzled look, “Where’s your car? Did you lose it?”
Gu Chen gently rubbed the back of Shen Xi’s hand a few times and smiled. “I lost my key and can’t drive, so I can only walk back with you.”
Shen Xi instantly pouted in dissatisfaction. She frowned. “l don’t want to walk.
It’s so tiring!’
As Shen Xi said that, her body reacted accordingly, and she stopped moving.
Gu Chen didn’t dare to pull Shen Xi’s hand too hard. He could only stop with Shen Xi.
There wasn’t a hint of impatience on his face. There was a hint of pampering as he looked at Shen Xi helplessly.
“Go find the keys and drive the car over!” Shen Xi looked at the ground and said.
“But I lost the key. 1 can’t find it.” Gu Chen said honestly. Then he lowered his head and looked at Shen Xi’s small face. He asked softly, “If you don’t want to leave, then I’ll carry you, okay? This way, you won’t be tired.”
Gu Chen’s voice was extremely gentle, like a parent who was patiently coaxing his child.
Shen Xi had just nodded when Gu Chen happily lowered his body. With his back facing Shen Xi, he whispered, “Come on up.”
Shen Xi’s gaze fell on Gu Chen, who was shot in front of her. She stood there for a while and did not move.
Gu Chen didn’t move even after waiting for a while. It was as if he believed that as long as he waited, he would get what he wanted.
Just like how he had waited for more than four years for this rare opportunity to spend time with Shen Xi.
After a while, Shen Xi lay down on the bed. Gu Chen’s originally nervous expression was instantly replaced by a sense of relief and joy.
He gently lifted Shen Xi and walked steadily towards the sidewalk beside the street.
“l forgot to bring barbecue for mother and father.” Shen Xi said softly on Gu Chen’s back.
“Then if we meet them on the way, we’ll buy some for them.” Gu Chen replied.
“Good!” Shen Xi’s voice was a little m.u.f.fled, sounding like she was about to fall asleep.
The vague and unreal breath spread in Gu Chen’s ears. It sounded illusory, but it filled Gu Chen’s heart with warmth.
The street lamp elongated the two of them and also elongated Gu Chen’s heart who wanted to be with Shen Xi for a long time. He hoped that this road would be longer, longer, and it would be best if it was a lifetime.
To bring some barbecue for Shen Yan and his wife, Gu Chen deliberately took a detour and followed the navigation on his phone to a barbecue restaurant that looked quite sanitary.
Gu Chen didn’t know Shen Yan and his wife’s preferences and tastes. He thought that Shen Xi had lost her memory now, so he probably wouldn’t remember Shen Yan and his wife’s tastes, so he didn’t wake Shen Xi up.
Of course, the most important thing was that he couldn’t bear to call her. He liked the feeling of Shen Xi being soft and dependent on him.
“Boss, give me two portions of spicy food, two portions of slightly spicy food, and two portions of non-spicy food.” Gu Chen said directly.
The boss looked at the beautiful man in front of him in surprise and asked with uncertainty, “Are you sure? I have quite a few varieties of these things..’!
