Fu Lin, the second wife of the Yu family, is the fifth young lady of the Fu family in Xizhou City and also a cousin of the Ji family.

Forty years ago, a fire killed everyone in the Fu family except her. She escaped because she lived in the Ji family.

But Fu Lin also became timid as a result. She rarely went out and often went in and out of the Ji family's small Buddhist hall to accompany the old lady Ji in chanting scriptures and reciting Buddhist prayers. After she got married, she also set up a small Buddhist hall in the Yu family.

The maid came to the small Buddhist shrine and met Fu Lin.

“Miss, I overheard something about the eldest young master outside.”

Fu Lin suddenly opened her eyes: "What is it?"

"Many people are saying that the eldest young master is not your biological son, but an illegitimate child that the second master adopted from outside!" The maid lowered her voice, but could not hide her excitement.

"Nonsense!"

Fu Lin stood up and scolded her: "Ah Hao is the child I carried for ten months and gave birth to with great difficulty. How could he be an illegitimate child? You believe the nonsense made up by outsiders. I think you have too much free time."

The maid said anxiously, "No, they're making it sound so convincing, it doesn't seem fake. Miss, I was sent by the old lady to take care of your meals, so I'm definitely on your side, right? As the saying goes, it's better to be safe than sorry. What if it's true? You've been raising another woman's child for over twenty years!"

The last sentence made Fu Lin's petite body sway.

The maid quickly helped her up.

Fu Lin stared into her eyes: "Where did you hear that?"

The maid replied, "I heard it at the market; it's already spread all over the place."

Instantly, Fu Lin's face paled.

She didn't hear a word of it.

But this maid had once been a servant of the Ji family, and as she said, she was on her side. Fu Lin steadied herself and instructed her, "Go out and contact the Ji family's bodyguards, and ask them to help me investigate."

"Yes, Miss."

The maid nodded earnestly.

Fu Lin didn't believe it, but there's no smoke without fire, and she was also afraid that she wouldn't be able to withstand the blow.

???

At 9:30 p.m. that night, at the Gu residence.

Gu Xiaobao was quite attached to Shangguan Wu in Changteng City, but after returning to the capital and seeing his father, he needed his father to feed him and coax him to sleep.

Gu Xiaobao felt that everyone was spoiling him because he was injured.

Once he recovered, all these benefits would be taken back, so Gu Xiaobao started to act 'willfully'.

After seeing her older brother carry Gu Xiaobao upstairs, Shangguan Wu leaned close to Ji Moyan and whispered, "Mom, can I see photos of my husband when he was a child?"

Ji Moyan asked in surprise, "Didn't you receive it?"

"What did you receive?"

"A photo of Yunzhen wearing a dress when she was little!"

"..."

Shangguan Wu did not receive it.

She thought of something and turned to look at the man on the single sofa.

Ji Moyan followed her gaze and saw her youngest son sitting with his legs crossed, looking as lazy as a big cat. He didn't say anything, but you could tell he was very smug.

This is her aloof, indifferent, and detached youngest son, whom outsiders call a high-and-mighty flower.

He's twenty-six years old this year, which is roughly thirty, and yet he's bullying a young girl.

It just goes to show that a man is a boy until he dies.

Suddenly, Ji Moyan smiled and pulled Shangguan Wu's hand to stand up: "Wu Bao, Mom still has a few pretty ones. I'll go find them and show them to you."

Shangguan Wu let out a soft "Eh."

Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better, and her eyes instantly sparkled like stars.

"Really? Thank you, Mom!"

"We're family, no need to be so polite!"

Ji Moyan smiled and led Shangguan Wu toward the elevator.

Gu Yunzhen, who had been sitting steadily on the sofa, suddenly froze, staring at their backs in disbelief.

After they entered the elevator, Gu Yunzhen turned to look at her father and asked, "Aren't you going to do anything about her?"

Gu Qingyu met his youngest son's gaze and said casually, "It was your wife who wanted to see the photos, why didn't you stop her?"

Gu Yunzhen: "..."

He was speechless.

Gu Yunzhen sat for five minutes, feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles, but finally couldn't stand it anymore and stood up to leave.

"return!"

Gu Qingyu stopped him: "It's just a few photos. It's for your wife to see, not for outsiders. Why are you so nervous!"

Gu Yunzhen's eye twitched twice. His father was talking without any sense of the pain!

He raised an eyebrow, turned to look at him, and suggested, "Dad, for your and Mom's wedding anniversary this year, how about Mom wears a suit and you wear a wedding dress?"

"What did you say?"

Gu Qingyu could hardly believe it; this brat was utterly rebellious!

However, no sooner had he finished speaking than Ji Moyan's excited voice came from the stairwell: "I think this suggestion is great!"

Not bad my ass!

Gu Qingyu glared at his youngest son who had given him the bad idea, then quickly got up and went to his wife: "That kid is just trying to annoy me, don't fall for his tricks."

Ji Moyan looked at her youngest son.

Gu Yunzhen turned around, his handsome face calm. Seeing his mother coming downstairs alone, he hurriedly went upstairs to find Shangguan Wu.

Ji Moyan smiled at Gu Qingyu and said in a consultative tone, "Honey, I really think it looks good. I look very handsome in a suit, don't you remember?"

I do remember, but he would never wear a wedding dress!

"What's so good about it? Don't just make things up." Gu Qingyu felt his scalp tingle and his body break out in a cold sweat just thinking about himself, a man in his fifties, wearing a woman's wedding dress.

Ji Moyan stood with her hands on her hips and glared at him: "What did you say? Say it again!"

Gu Qingyu cleared his throat twice and explained, "Wife, I'm over fifty, not a young man anymore. Wouldn't wearing a wedding dress make me the laughingstock of the whole city? If you really want to see it, isn't that kid going to have a wedding ceremony? Let him wear a wedding dress. My daughter-in-law is tall and slender, she looks good in a suit too."

Ji Moyan nodded in agreement. Wu Bao was a walking clothes hanger; she looked good in everything. She thought the suggestion was a good one.

However, she stared at the man's mature and handsome face: "Don't worry, you'll still look like a man in his thirties when you walk out. You haven't aged at all; in fact, you've become even more charming."

Gu Qingyu looked at her affectionately and smiled, "Are you really not getting old?"

Ji Moyan replied matter-of-factly, "That's right, otherwise all the money I've spent on your upkeep over the years would have been wasted."

Gu Qingyu: "..."

He shouldn't have asked that unnecessary question!

At the same time, Gu Yunzhen went to the bedroom on the fourth floor.

Shangguan Wu was lying on the bed, engrossed in looking at a thick photo album, her little feet swinging back and forth.

Gu Yunzhen quietly approached the bed and reached out to grab her feet.

Shangguan Wu's body trembled violently, and she turned around.

Upon seeing that it was Gu Yunzhen, Shangguan Wu was taken aback for a moment, then quickly closed the photo album and pressed it to her chest.
