Chapter 284: It's really worrying

“I’ve heard of it, but I don’t understand it.”

Hearing Qi Yunfei's answer, Gu Nanyue nodded in understanding.

After all, it is normal that others do not understand a consortium that even Shen cannot fully understand.

After dinner, Gu Nanyue and Lu Wan went shopping in the mall again.

Now that Chu Yan had left the Chu family and was living in the Shen family, the news had become a hot topic in Rongcheng, and Lu Wan couldn't help but gossip about it.

"Will Mr. Chu and Teacher Song be together?"

Mr. Chu and Teacher Song are in love with each other, but the Chu family would rather choose Xu Shuting, who looks beautiful but is actually rotten, than Teacher Song.

Is family background really that important?

"Actually, I also want to know the answer." Gu Nanyue smiled helplessly.

The two happened to pass by a toy store, and Gu Nanyue walked straight in.

Lu Wan looked at her with a smile, "Sure enough, now that I have a child, I will think of him no matter where I go."

"Wanwan, don't laugh at me. When you have a child, you will definitely depend on him more than I do." Gu Nanyue said this first.

Lu Wan helped her choose toys. "That depends on whether the child is well-behaved. If he is as well-behaved as Xiao Mumu, I would definitely want to be with him every day. If he is as annoying as Bei Ting, I will never leave him."

"Tsk... We've only been out for a while, and you're already missing your Mr. Huo?"

"No, I just said he was annoying. How could I miss him?"

"You brought him up out of nowhere and said you didn't miss him. Newlyweds are just different."

Lu Wan's face turned red due to Gu Nanyue's teasing.

When walking out of the toy store, Lu Wan thought of something else: "I still hope that Mr. Chu and Teacher Song can get together, so that their children will be happy in the future."

If Chu Yan marries someone else and has a child in the future, there will only be one more unfortunate person in this world.

Gu Nanyan understood what Lu Wan meant and sighed, "I hope so."

But after all, it is someone else's life and they cannot interfere.

As soon as I walked out of the mall, I saw Huo Beiting waiting outside.

Huo Beiting took all the things and said to Gu Nanyue, "Where do you live? We will take you back."

"No need, my driver is waiting too, just pick Wanwan up and take her back."

Gu Nanyan pointed to the driver who was wearing a suit and tie and was specially arranged for her by Shen Boyan not far away.

"Yeah, okay."

After Huo Beiting handed Gu Nanyue's things to the driver, he left with Lu Wan.

Gu Nanyue looked at the two people's backs with a relieved expression.

These two people can be said to have finally reaped the rewards of their hard work.

People who have been caught in the rain know better how to hold an umbrella for others.

Their children will definitely be happy in the future.

"Ms. Gu?"

Suddenly a voice sounded behind her. Gu Nanyue turned around and found that it was the woman she met at the drama.

"Ms. Yang, what a coincidence."

Gu Nanyan looked at her with surprise. They had met twice in this foreign country. How could it not be fate?

"Yes, I saw someone who looked like you from behind in the mall just now, but I didn't expect it was really you. Where is the friend who was shopping with you just now? Did he leave?"

Yang Jinghua looked around but couldn't find Lu Wan.

Gu Nanyan nodded, "Yes, she went back, and I'm done shopping and about to leave."

When Yang Jinghua heard Gu Nanyue say that she was leaving, his expression showed regret for a moment.

She seemed to think about it, and finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Miss Gu, can I treat you to afternoon tea?"

"Madam, you have to go this afternoon..." The servant next to Yang Jinghua was halfway through her words when Yang Jinghua gave her a look and she immediately shut up.

"Do you have anything else to do this afternoon?" Gu Nanyue couldn't help but ask.

"It's okay. They're just some unimportant things. I just made an appointment to get a beauty treatment, but now I've changed my mind. Let's find a place in this mall to have afternoon tea, shall we?"

Yang Jinghua invited her again and again, and Gu Nanyue seemed reluctant to refuse.

She finally nodded, "Okay."

On the sixth floor of the shopping mall, there is a tea restaurant with a very good environment.

The floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the scenery around the mall.

Yang Jinghua ordered two drinks and some snacks. The two of them sat by the window, listening to music and drinking afternoon tea.

"Ms. Gu, I don't think your accent sounds like that of a native of Country A. Did you immigrate here?"

Yang Jinghua seemed to be full of curiosity about Gu Nanyue.

"No, I'm just here on business. I should be back soon."

Gu Nanyue was not an imprudent person. On the contrary, she was a very cautious person. However, the person in front of her did not make her feel any danger.

Because every time this man looked at her, she had an indescribable feeling.

It was like the look of a mother who had lost her child for many years, looking at her child with joy.

She always felt that there must be some story behind this person.

"I see. Where is your hometown?"

"Country Z, Rongcheng."

As soon as Gu Nanyue finished speaking, the woman's expression changed obviously.

She seemed to be thinking of some unpleasant past events, her expression suddenly became sad, and her eyes were red.

Gu Nanyan looked at her in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"

"No, it's nothing. I just thought about some things in the past. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

She deliberately avoided the topic and did not continue the conversation with Gu Nanyue.

The two chatted about some other things, and the woman was obviously shocked to learn that Gu Nanyue had a four-year-old son.

"Child, you are a child yourself, how come you have such a big child?"

The look in her eyes when she looked at Gu Nanyue was one of heartache.

"It may seem a little ridiculous, but I don't regret it, because my husband is a very good man." Gu Nanyue smiled at the woman easily.

After hearing what Gu Nanyue said, the woman seemed relieved.

A cup of afternoon tea doesn't take long.

Gu Nanyue found an excuse and went back first.

Before parting, the two left their phone numbers with each other.

As soon as Gu Nanyan left, the servant immediately stepped forward and said, "Madam, don't you think it's a bit too coincidental that we keep running into this girl?"

"What do you mean?" Yang Jinghua's face suddenly darkened.

"Madam, you are a noble person. You have to be careful when you go out. In the future, you should not associate with these unknown people."

"That's enough!" Yang Jinghua finally got angry. "Isn't it me who takes the initiative to talk to others? They weren't on guard against me, and you talked about them behind their backs like this."

"Madam, I'm doing this for your own good." The servant lowered his head, not daring to say anything more.

As soon as Gu Nanyan returned to the hotel, Shen Boyan called.

Gu Nanyue chatted with him for a while about her schedule for the day and mentioned Yang Jinghua in passing.

Shen Boyan's voice immediately became deep, "For someone whose identity and background are unknown, you are having afternoon tea with her?"

"Is there a...problem? She wouldn't poison my afternoon tea, would she?"

"Why not?"

Gu Nanyue was speechless for a moment.

But on second thought, his worries seemed to be justified.

"Okay, I understand. I will pay attention next time."

She admitted her mistake obediently.

"You really make me worry." There was a hint of blame in Chen Bo's tone.

Gu Nanyue snorted in dissatisfaction.

Shen Boyan immediately asked, "Why, you're not convinced?"
