Chapter 698: The Little Stepmother (2)

Wen Wan looked at Gu Zile. He was handsome and gentle, but in the original story, Gu Zile and Chen Qian got together soon after, making them an adulterous couple.

Wen Wan: "A Qian will definitely come back. After all, he is my husband's only son and the only heir to the Gu Group. The Gu Group still needs him to support it."

Wen Wan noticed that the old lady's expression was very bad after she said this. "His heart has long been wild. He has been corrupted by his mother. He no longer considers himself a child of the Gu family. How can he be worthy of inheriting the Gu family's property?"

Wen Wan: "Mother-in-law, you are right, but he is my husband's only bloodline, and legally he is the first in line to inherit. There is no way to change that."

The old lady's face darkened even more.

The old lady was short-sighted and naive, wearing her heart on her sleeve. In contrast, Gu Weilin was much more cunning, even advising, "Mom, my sister-in-law is right. After all, Aqian is my brother's only bloodline and should inherit the Gu family business."

"Inherit what? He studied painting abroad. If we really handed over the Gu family business to him, the Gu family business would go bankrupt."

Gu Qian studied painting abroad, which was arranged by Gu Weihe, who didn't want him to inherit his estate. Originally, he wanted one of his other sons to inherit it. Who would have thought that at sixty years old, he still hadn't had a son, even with so many mistresses he was having affairs with outside, he still hadn't laid a single egg.

This was the only junior he truly respected, and it turned out they weren't even related to him by blood. For Gu Weihe, dying with regrets was truly unbearable.

While they were talking, Gu Qian returned.

"It seems Grandma doesn't really welcome me back?"

Wen Wan looked over and was immediately stunned. "My god, system, you didn't tell me that the male lead was so incredibly handsome! He's an absolute beauty!"

Gu Qian wore a well-fitting suit, his hair was shoulder-length and slightly wavy, his features were delicate, and he even had a mixed-race look.

Because Gu's mother is of mixed heritage from four countries and is a famous beauty, and although Gu's father is a scumbag, he was able to win Gu's mother's favor, so his appearance couldn't be bad either. How could the male lead born from these two not be good-looking?

She was absolutely stunning, making Wen Wan's heart clench and her eyes unable to leave her face.

But his eyes were too cold.

Even just looking inside would send chills down your spine.

The old lady looked at Gu Qian's face, which resembled his mother's by eight parts, and disliked him intensely. "He only comes back when your father dies. He really is a good son raised by your mother."

Gu Qian glanced at the old lady, his eyes cold.

There wasn't even a hint of color, which made the old lady so angry that she wanted to curse. Gu Weilin, who was standing nearby, quickly comforted her.

"It's good that Aqian is back. Go and kowtow to your father. And do you know her? She's your father's wife. Say hello."

Wen Yan: "..."

Gu Qian's gaze shifted to Wen Wan, and he felt as if he were being stared at by a cold snake, his heart going numb.

"Hello Gu Qian, my name is Chen Qian."

Wen Wan stretched out her hand.

She gave him what she thought was the kindest smile, but the other person walked past her and headed towards the mourning hall.

Looking at the face in the photo at the funeral hall, it should be a picture of someone around forty years old, who still looks quite young.

"Although I've always hoped you would die, I never imagined you could die in such an absurd way."

Others: "!!!"

After saying this, Gu Qian left the scene.

The old woman was cursing and spewing all sorts of nasty words, while Wen Wan was talking to the system.

"Gu Qian is as beautiful as an angel, but her mouth is too sharp. However, this sharp-tongued beauty is even more attractive."

...

Standing all day at this funeral was truly exhausting.

After seeing everyone off, Wen Wan returned to the Gu family home, only to find that the male lead, who had just caused a scene at the funeral hall, was having a party at home.

The music was deafening.

Men and women were gathered in the living room drinking, smoking, and even dancing in each other's arms.

Gu Qian sat on the sofa in the middle, holding a glass of red wine between his fingers, taking small sips.

Wen Wan was truly dumbfounded.

This guy is having a party on the night of his father's funeral. His father is dead, how happy is he?!

Her arrival plunged the scene into silence.

Because of her, everyone knows that she is Mr. Gu's very colorful young wife.

She hasn't even finished university yet, and she's three years younger than Gu Qian.

She is also Gu Qian's... stepmother.

No one dared to make a move, their eyes darting frantically between Wen Wan and Gu Qian. Wen Wan smiled and said, "You're A Qian's friends, right? Are you having a party? Continue, just pretend I'm not here. Do you want some drinks? I'll get them for you."

He then left in full view of everyone, and a few minutes later returned with several bottles of wine.

Gu Qian looked at the wine in Wen Wan's hand.

These are all that old codger's treasures; he can't usually take them out.

Looking at the other person, what does that mean? Is it genuine indifference, or is it a sign of deep scheming?

"Young Master Gu, this..."

Gu Qian: "Drink up! Since your stepmother gave it to you, just take it and drink it. This bottle is worth several million."

Wen Yan: "!!!"

How much? Several million?

Looking at the bottles of wine he had brought, he thought, "Wow, system, is this wine really that expensive? I just grabbed a few bottles at random. If I sold them, I could probably buy a house! That would be enough to live a life of luxury for the rest of my days!"

system:【……】

Wen Wan felt sorry for her.

His expression betrayed him, and Gu Qian let out a cold laugh.

Wen Wan poured wine for everyone, feeling a pang of regret, and then decisively poured herself two glasses as well. In her previous life, she had never drunk wine worth millions until her death, and she wanted to taste what kind of wine it was that was worth millions.

The others drank too, and with Gu Qian's permission, they continued their revelry. Wen Wan drank two glasses of wine. The taste wasn't that good or that bad, and Wen Wan couldn't tell the difference, but it was very strong and made her feel dizzy immediately.

Then I started having a blast with the other people.

Who doesn't love excitement? Who doesn't love parties?

He ate, drank, played games, sang, and played cards, quickly integrating into the group. The others were somewhat surprised and looked at Gu Qian in the middle, but Gu Qian did not react at all.

It wasn't until late at night that everyone gradually left.

"Drink some more! There's still plenty of wine. You're not allowed to go home until you've had your fill!" Wen Wan shouted, clearly starting to act crazy while drunk. She was even singing into a microphone when the sound suddenly stopped. Wen Wan looked over and saw that Gu Qian had unplugged the microphone.

Approaching Wen Wan, he said, "Chen Qian, you... are very good."

Wen Yan: "..."

Wen Wan collapsed onto the sofa with a thud and fell asleep. Gu Qian looked somewhat stunned, as if he hadn't expected this scene to unfold.

Wen Wan slept in this peculiar position all night, with her upper body on the sofa and her legs on the floor. She was woken up by the nanny who came to work the next day.
