Gu Sinan knew that Jiang Ranran must be getting anxious waiting for him, so he opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly he thought of what happened before, and he immediately felt sad and desperate, and didn't want to say another word to Jiang Ranran.

Seeing that Gu Sinan had no intention of speaking, Jiang Ranran quickly caught up with Gu Sinan, "Sinan, where have you been? Mom has been waiting for you for a long time. Do you know how anxious Mom is?"

When Jiang Ranran said this, her voice was trembling, and her tone was filled with a distressing cry.

Gu Sinan's heart trembled violently. For a moment, he wanted to turn around and hug Jiang Ranran tightly, but the grudge in his heart made him hold back.

"I didn't go anywhere, just met a friend." Gu Sinan said with a straight face.

His voice was so cold, as if it came out of an ice cellar.

When Jiang Ranran heard this voice, she almost burst into tears.

"Sinan, I don't know how your father explained it to you, but Mom hopes you can listen to what Mom explains to you." Jiang Ranran still wanted to have another good talk with Gu Sinan.

But Gu Sinan didn't want to listen to their explanation anymore.

"There's nothing to explain, I'm fine." Gu Sinan didn't even look back at Jiang Ranran.

Jiang Ranran still wanted to fight for it, but Gu Sinan didn't give her the chance and just said to her, "I'm sorry, I'm very tired now. I need to rest."

Gu Sinan left Jiang Ranran alone in the hall. Jiang Ranran looked at Gu Sinan's back and burst into tears.

Jiang Ranran stayed awake all night, her mind full of Gu Sinan's cold face.

Jiang Ranran's pillow was soaked with tears, and she felt as if the rift between mother and son could never be mended.

The next day, Jiang Ranran came to the hall listlessly, but saw Gu Sinan sitting in the hall, as if waiting for someone. Jiang Ranran's heart suddenly trembled, and he had a bad premonition.

Seeing Jiang Ranran coming, Gu Sinan's gloomy expression finally changed a little. It didn't become warmer, but became colder.

"Mom, I want to invite some friends back to visit. Do you have any objection?" Gu Sinan turned his gaze to Jiang Ranran and asked.

Jiang Ranran was stunned. Not to mention the request to invite one friend, even if it was ten, Jiang Ranran would agree.

"Of course, it's your freedom." Jiang Ranran hurriedly forced a smile, trying to make herself look very relaxed.

Gu Sinan nodded, his expression unbelievably cold. "That's fine, I just wanted to say this, that's all. Thank you."

His polite words were like a dagger, piercing deep into Jiang Ranran's heart.

"Sinan, could you please not be so cold to your mother?" Jiang Ranran simply couldn't stand such cold violence.

Every word and every sentence she said to Gu Sinan was a torture to Jiang Ranran, but Jiang Ranran couldn't help but worry about Gu Sinan. After all, he was her son and the apple of her eye.

Gu Sinan was stunned by the question. Jiang Ranran thought he was moved, but unexpectedly, Gu Sinan turned around stiffly, staring at Jiang Ranran coldly and said, "You think too much, Mom. I am still the same me."

He kept saying this, but in Jiang Ranran's opinion, it was clearly a lie.

A mother is the first to notice whether her child has changed. Gu Sinan has indeed changed. He has become estranged from Jiang Ranran, Gu Tingchen, and even his own siblings.

This is also what makes Jiang Ranran the saddest.

Even so, Jiang Ranran did not neglect Gu Sinan's request at all.

Knowing that Gu Sinan was going to host a banquet for his friends, Jiang Ranran took the opportunity to explain things to everyone during lunch.

Ever since the conflict at home, every meal has been unusually quiet, without the usual laughter and playfulness.

In the quiet atmosphere, Jiang Ranran always secretly observed everyone's expressions.

The three children all had stern faces, as if they had some deep hatred, which made Jiang Ranran very distressed.

Sighing deeply, Jiang Ranran continued to eat with her head down. She had originally hoped that Gu Tingchen would help her solve the problem, but something had happened to the Gu Group recently, and Gu Tingchen had been unable to spare any time, leaving early and returning late every day.

"Kids, don't leave after dinner. Mom has something to say." Jiang Ranran finally plucked up the courage and said what she wanted to say.

The children just nodded, but did not respond enthusiastically.

This was something Jiang Ranran expected.

After the meal, the children waited for Jiang Ranran to speak.

Jiang Ranran told everyone: "My brother said he wants to invite friends to our house tonight. Mom has already prepared everything. Everyone should remember to be more welcoming to our friends when the time comes."

I thought that even though there were conflicts between the children, they would at least give each other some respect. However, what Jiang Ranran didn't expect was that Gu Sibei replied to Jiang Ranran without even thinking, saying, "Sorry, Mom, I'm not feeling well today, so I won't join you. I hope you have fun."

Before Jiang Ranran could persuade her, Gu Sixi said, "I have an appointment with my classmates to do homework tonight, so I can't join them. I'm really sorry."

In the blink of an eye, only Jiang Ranran and Gu Sinan were left at the dinner table.

Jiang Ranran's face turned ugly. She was about to say that if Gu Sibei and Gu Sixi didn't attend, she would also attend. But before Jiang Ranran could say anything, Gu Sinan asked Jiang Ranran with a dark face: "Mom should be busy with something too, right?"

"I don't have one, Sinan, I can attend tonight!" Jiang Ranran quickly expressed his attitude.

But Gu Sinan didn't seem to appreciate it, and directly gave Jiang Ranran a cold verdict, "Mom, if you have something to do, go and do it. Don't embarrass yourself. I don't mind."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Sinan stood up and left, not giving Jiang Ranran any chance to explain.

Sitting at the dinner table, Jiang Ranran felt deeply helpless.

At this moment, Qiao Zhen sent another message to Jiang Ranran: "I advise you to return the child to me, otherwise, I will make you pay."

This seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back. Jiang Ranran could no longer hold back and lay down on the table and started crying.

Tears fell silently, and Jiang Ranran's thin body kept shaking.

She felt that the whole world was against her and nothing was going according to her wishes.

"Why do you treat me like this?" Jiang Ranran muttered to herself, tears falling like beads from a broken string.

At the same time, at the corner of the stairs on the second floor, Gu Sinan was listening to Jiang Ranran's crying, feeling sad and uncomfortable.
