War of Roses: The Proud Tycoon,Please Surrender!-Chapter 348 Gu Xiaobao is Very Annoyed
This meal, with two adorable kids around, was quite fulfilling.
This is probably the happiest Tang Yuxiu has eaten in the past five years.
The two kids finished eating first, but they ate the slowest.
Everyone else finished eating and just waited for the two of them to continue.
Lu Fusheng suddenly asked, "Miss Gu, how has your cousin been lately?"
Gu Yan, puzzled and surprised, asked, "Huh, do you know my cousin?"
"Old friends for many years."
"I know you!" Before Gu Yan could speak, Gu Xiaonian shouted out.
Gu Yan was surprised, "Gu Xiaonian, how do you know?"
Gu Xiaonian swallowed a mouthful of food and drank some water before saying, "I secretly went to Auntie’s room and saw a photo."
Lu Fusheng raised an eyebrow and asked, "What photo?"
Gu Xiaonian replied, "A photo of many people, but Auntie is in the middle, and next to her is this handsome uncle."
Lu Fusheng paused slightly in his breath. She still kept that group photo from seven years ago, and it was in a place in her room where even a kid could see it.
The events of that year hit her so hard that even after seven years, she couldn’t forget a bit.
Then Gu Xiaonian continued, "But... this handsome uncle’s face has a big X across it."
Lu Fusheng, "..."
So Xiao Xiao was rather... interesting behind others’ backs.
If it weren’t for that incident, she probably would be the most carefree one in the assassin organization.
But that event caused her to lose all her companions, with only the two of them surviving, leading to a later situation of a fight to death.
After Gu Yan "passed away", she announced her retirement, and she hasn’t resurfaced since.
He hasn’t seen her for five years and only occasionally heard a bit about her from Yan Shuo.
She only occasionally went to see Yan Shuo.
For these five years, her updates have been sporadic, and even if there was news, it was incomplete, just a little, not even a photo.
When he saw Gu Yan, he was surprised she wasn’t dead but quickly realized that since Gu Yan was alive and back, then seeing her shouldn’t be far off.
Gu Yan felt a bit bewildered, feeling like the world had suddenly become very small.
People are all interconnected in countless ways...
Thinking this, Gu Yan sneaked a glance at Tang Yuxiu, feeling rather inexplicably strange.
This didn’t make much sense.
"Gu Xiaoyan, I’m done." Gu Xiaobao put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth and hands, straightened his clothes, and sat properly like a little gentleman.
Tang Mubei and Lu Fusheng looked at him, thinking... this is definitely Tang Yuxiu’s son!
That stern demeanor and love for cleanliness were just like Tang Yuxiu’s when he was young.
Even this pretended serious look was the same.
The two sent Tang Yuxiu a meaningful glance.
Tang Yuxiu calmly looked at Gu Xiaobao, eyes filled with pride.
Hmm... this was for Tang Mubei and Lu Fusheng to see.
As if telling them, I have a son, look how wonderful he is.
If Tang Mubei and Lu Fusheng weren’t mindful of the surroundings, they would have really wanted to hit him.
While Gu Yan was still worrying about Gu Xiaonian eating, Gu Xiaobao secretly glanced at Tang Yuxiu.
He thought, this man really looks like him. He hadn’t had the chance to find him yet, and he appeared on his own.
Gu Xiaobao wondered if this was fate, that he should be the father of him and Gu Xiaonian, right?
His uncle had said that mommy had an accident once, after which she forgot everything, even who she was, so naturally, she didn’t remember who their father was or if they even had a father.
Uncle and Auntie also said they didn’t know.
Some time ago, he saw a photo of Tang Yuxiu in the newspaper, so he searched for information about him and compared his appearance with his own in the mirror, finding more and more resemblance.
He thought, there must be a connection, even if not his father, then someone his father knows.
But now, after seeing Tang Yuxiu, he almost immediately thought this must be the father of him and Gu Xiaonian.
He found himself really liking him.
Just when Gu Xiaobao was secretly looking at Tang Yuxiu again, Tang Yuxiu happened to look over at him; he immediately sat up straight, small hands gripping his knees nervously, his little face turning slightly red, especially the earlobes, turning deep red.
Tang Yuxiu was momentarily amused.
This pretended seriousness was just too cute.
Tang Yuxiu’s eyes were full of laughter, while Gu Xiaobao, trying to keep calm, felt Tang Yuxiu must be laughing at him!
Thinking that made his face turn even redder.
How embarrassing, why couldn’t he handle himself better in front of him.
Compared to Gu Xiaonian and other kids his age, Gu Xiaobao was more mature and probably smarter, but he was still a kid under five.
Since young, he and Gu Xiaonian didn’t have a dad, and now having finally found someone who might be their dad, he had the same feelings every kid would have.
He hoped Tang Yuxiu would like him too, think of him as a good kid.
But now, he felt frustrated and discouraged.
As if the first impression on this could-be dad wasn’t very good.
What if, because of him, this man who seems to be their father doesn’t want Gu Xiaoyan anymore?
Tang Yuxiu couldn’t have known that in such a short time, his silly son had thought about so much regarding the impressions between father, parents, and child relationships afterward.
He didn’t know whether to say he’s too smart for thinking so much at such a young age.
At this point, Tang Yuxiu stood up, "I’m going to the restroom."
Seeing him leave the table, Gu Xiaobao immediately felt relieved.
After a while, Gu Xiaonian finally finished his meal, happily nestled in the chair, patting his belly, "So full, so happy."
Tang Yuxiu returned quickly and asked them, "Are you all done eating?"
Tang Mubei and Lu Fusheng’s opinions didn’t matter; Tang Yuxiu was looking at Gu Yan and her two children.
Tang Mubei and Lu Fusheng sneered in their hearts, look at you being so obsequious.
You finally have your day.
Gu Yan replied, "We’re done." She stood up first, "Gu Xiaobao, Gu Xiaonian, stand up, mommy’s going to pay the bill, say goodbye to the uncles."
Ha-ha, having your kids call you uncle, Tang Mubei and Lu Fusheng couldn’t help but smile slightly, silently mocking Young Master Tang.
After greeting them, Gu Yan went to the front desk to pay. Those two were puzzled, shouldn’t this be Tang Yuxiu’s job? Why wasn’t he stopping Gu Yan from paying?
This was too strange; it was unlike Tang Yuxiu at all.
Their mocking expressions couldn’t help but carry a trace of disdain.
Making a woman pay for a meal is truly shameful for a man!
