Gu Shaoying said coquettishly.

"Mom and Dad, I was just joking. Of course I love you the most. When I received the acceptance letter, I was also reluctant to part with you."

Fortunately, my older brother and sister-in-law are here; otherwise, I really don't know how I would have survived alone in a strange city.

"Alright. Shaoying is growing up and should learn to be independent. Look at your older brother, I'm never worried about him. I know he'll be fine."

You must learn to be strong like your older brother. While you're studying away from home, Dad doesn't expect you to achieve great things; he only hopes you're healthy, free from illness, and happy.

"Don't worry, Dad, I will. I will definitely listen to my brother and sister-in-law and not let you worry."

When Gu Zhiyuan heard his daughter say this, he suddenly felt that she had grown up a lot. She was never so obedient at home before and would talk back at the drop of a hat.

Today, I've learned to comfort myself instead.

"By the way, Meihua, we'll pay for the hotel ourselves this time. Such a nice hotel must cost a lot, but it's a good way for us to enjoy life while we're on vacation."

Shao Xuan and his daughter-in-law don't have it easy running their business here, so let's not let them spend too much. We should save the money to take care of their own family.

Oh, and please leave Shaoying extra money this time. Remember, Shaoying, if you need money, just call Dad and he'll have Mom wire you some. Even though your brother earns money too…

But he's married now and has a family to support, so it's not good to let your older brother keep spending money on you. Don't let your sister-in-law complain if this goes on. Our family doesn't need your school fees.”

Wang Meihua shook her head and smiled bitterly:

"Old Gu, you're always like a leader assigning tasks, no matter where you go! My daughter and I are here to receive the imperial decree!"

Gu Shaoying watched her parents bickering and turned her head away to chuckle.
