"He would never have thoughts like yours."

Gu Hongxun froze, staring at Bai Qianmo in astonishment.

“He only lets me solve it myself, and even if he really wants to help me, he will respect my wishes.”

The elevator doors opened as soon as the words were spoken.

Bai Qianmo smiled lightly, a hint of sharpness in her expression.

"Little friend, this is the charm of a mature man. You will have to wait another ten years to understand the wisdom behind it."

After watching Bai Qianmo leave, Gu Hongxun reacted and followed her out of the elevator.

"I will never follow my seventh uncle's example. I will never let my girlfriend suffer even the slightest grievance. If anyone dares to bully her, I will never let them off easily."

Bai Qianmo raised her eyebrows and glanced at him sideways.

"It's better to raise someone you love as a flightless canary than to raise her as an eagle that soars through the sky like you."

Gu Hongxun was deeply shocked by these words.

He suddenly understood why his seventh uncle liked Bai Qianmo.

She is independent, strong, intelligent, and shrewd; she can handle her own affairs very well without relying on anyone.

That's why she could stand so confidently beside Uncle Seven and accept his boundless affection for her.

Because that's her charm and her asset.

At that moment, Gu Hongxun suddenly thought of Bai Xiruo.

At the time, he was infatuated with Bai Xiruo because he felt that this girl was innocent, gentle, and lovable.

Men seem to have an innate liking to protect weak women, so the more Bai Xiruo showed a little girl's dependence in front of him, the more he became obsessed with the satisfaction of this male hormone.

So when Bai Xiruo casually mentions Bai Qianmo, she always intentionally or unintentionally reveals how Bai Qianmo bullies her and how wronged she is in the Bai family.

Deep down, he actually had some doubts, but when Bai Qianmo and Bai Xiruo stood together, one was unruly and aloof, while the other was delicate and pitiful, he couldn't help but favor the weaker one.

Looking back now, I realize that I wasn't thinking about the problem at all; I was acting out of a male instinct to protect myself.

Uncle Qi is different. He can see the truth behind Bai Qianmo's cold mask, which is why Bai Qianmo can always smile sweetly like a child in front of him.

"I'll take you."

Just as Bai Qianmo was about to refuse, a familiar car drove up.

"Someone is coming to pick me up."

Gu Hongxun also saw the car, and upon seeing the license plate number, he immediately knew who had arrived.

I felt inexplicably nervous.

"Give my regards to Uncle Qi, I'm leaving now." Gu Hongxun turned to slip away, but the black sedan had already arrived in front of him.

"Young Master Xun!" Gu Jin, sitting in the passenger seat, leaned out and called out to Gu Hongxun.

Gu Hongxun looked annoyed, frowned, and forced a smile.

"Brother Jin, is Uncle Qi in the car too?"

He asked a completely pointless question; Kuching is Uncle Seven's personal bodyguard.

Wherever Kuching is, Uncle Seven will be there.

Kuching didn't pay much attention to Gu Hongxun's expression, and smiled broadly, revealing a set of bright white teeth.

"Seventh Master is here. Miss Bai, Young Master Xun, please get in the car."

Bai Qianmo looked towards the back seat and vaguely saw a familiar figure sitting inside.

"I drove myself, so I won't get in the car." Should he sit with Uncle Qi?

That was absolutely agonizing. He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles every time his Uncle Qi gave him a look. He didn't want to torture himself.

The rear door opened, and a long, straight leg stepped out first, followed by a handsome figure slowly getting out of the car.

Bai Qianmo's eyes lit up, her eyebrows curved into a smile, and she ran towards Gu Jueye.

With a slight smile, Gu Jueye naturally reached out his arm to catch Bai Qianmo, who was rushing towards him.

"Why are you here?" Bai Qianmo raised her head to look at the man in front of her.

"I'm not busy today, so I came to pick you up and take you home." The man smiled faintly and ruffled the girl's long hair.

Her narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes looked at Gu Hongxun.

"We're going to the old house today, let's go together."

"Seventh Uncle, I have a live broadcast tonight, so I won't go. I'll visit the two elders another day."

"Yes, try to avoid work during the family banquet before the New Year. The old man and the old woman haven't seen you for a long time."

Gu Hongxun nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll definitely be there that day. Well... Seventh Uncle, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now?"

Let's go.

Receiving Gu Jueye's words, "Let's go," was like a pardon to Gu Hongxun. He turned around and disappeared in a flash.

Bai Qianmo was dumbfounded.

Thinking back to Gu Hongxun's arrogant demeanor in the private room just now, acting like he was fearless and the most powerful person in the world.

In front of Gu Jueye, they suddenly became like dogs whose claws had been clipped, wagging their tails as if afraid that their master might whip them if he was unhappy.

The difference...

Bai Qianmo tilted her head and looked at Gu Jueye with admiration.

"Mr. Gu?"

"kindness?"

"How...how did you manage to train these...younger generation members to be so obedient?" Although he was of a high generation in the family, he was actually about the same age as these nephews and nieces, and his eldest nephew was even more than ten years older than him.

Although Mr. Gu has always had a deep and shrewd personality since childhood, as a junior of the same age, he must be resentful, right?

Moreover, children from families like Gu Jia are born to be at the top of the pyramid, so their ambition goes without saying.

“Discipline? No need, these juniors have been obedient since they were young.”

"hehe……"

Hehehehe...

Behind this seemingly casual "be obedient" lie countless lessons learned through blood and tears.
