Chapter 164 Madam Gu...
Gu Yulin was very excited when he learned that they were willing to meet. He did not expect that Weiwei and Gu Beixiao would agree to meet under such circumstances.
Luo Zhiwei was very aware of his resentment towards his third uncle.
Although I don't know why Weiwei agreed to meet, it can be considered as fulfilling the old man's wish.
He hung up the phone and went straight to the old man's room, looking at him with some emotion: "Grandpa, Grandma, Weiwei has agreed to meet with us. Do you have time tomorrow at noon?"
Grandpa Gu was very excited and happy. He paced around the room excitedly a few times and said, "Great! Your grandma and I both have time tomorrow. Let's go see Weiwei and Beixiao."
No matter what, they are his Gu family's grandchildren. How can they have been living away from home all this time?
If their mother were still alive, he certainly wouldn't try to take the children from her.
However... the two children's mother is no longer alive, and their children will eventually need a home. As their grandfather, he has to bring the children back.
Madam Gu was also extremely excited, and she was even a little at a loss: "I'll go find some novelties to give to Weiwei as a gift tomorrow."
She was somewhat flustered and prepared to leave the room, then seemed to realize something: "Yulin, do you know what they like?"
Gu Yulin looked helpless: "I'm sorry, Grandma, I don't know either. I'm not familiar with them..."
Without Lu Jingxiao, they probably wouldn't have met, let alone known what they liked.
Madam Gu glanced at her eldest grandson with disdain, knowing he was unreliable and wishing she hadn't asked.
She waved her hand: "Never mind, I'll prepare it myself."
Gu Yulin could tell from his grandmother's departing figure how much his grandparents cared about Weiwei and Beixiao.
Hopefully, the love from grandparents will give Weiwei and Beixiao some confidence in the Gu family.
Old Master Gu felt a pang of sadness. He suddenly asked, "Yu Lin, how much do you believe your third uncle's words?"
Gu Yulin shook his head: "I'm sorry, Grandpa, I don't believe a single word he said. His words... have no credibility."
He didn't want to doubt his family, but... his third uncle went too far this time.
For him, the facts and evidence were right in front of him, and upon hearing his third uncle's sophistry... he suddenly felt that his third uncle was a very irresponsible man.
This feeling is very unpleasant.
Grandpa Gu seemed surprised by Gu Yulin's response: "What do you mean?"
Gu Yulin said softly with a sullen face, "Grandpa, there are too many loopholes in Third Uncle's words. I can't believe him. I'm sorry."
Old Master Gu's eyes instantly darkened.
To be fair, after so many years of navigating the business world and the battlefield, how could he not see through Gu Hanchi's lies?
He just couldn't understand when his son had become like this.
He even lied to his own family.
"So it's true that he kidnapped Weiwei?"
This was something he cared about very much. Gu Hanchi, as Weiwei's third uncle, actually kidnapped his own niece. If this got out, where would he put his face?
Gu Yulin nodded: "Yes, Grandpa, Lu Jingxiao and I rescued Weiwei together. Third Brother is very angry about this... Uncle even brought people to give Weiwei an explanation..."
Grandpa Gu was very angry, and a thin layer of anger appeared on his face.
"You bastard, wait until tomorrow and see how I teach your third uncle a lesson. He can even lay a hand on his own niece, what else is he incapable of doing?"
Gu Yulin remained silent. The matter of disciplining his third uncle had nothing to do with him; he would just listen and let it go.

The next day, Luo Zhiwei seemed to be in much better spirits. When she went downstairs, she saw many people sitting in the living room.
She looked at him with surprise: "Brother, Ranran, why are you both here?"
Gu Beixiao: "I'll go with you. Aren't we going to see Old Master Gu today?"
The other one was less reserved. Gu Youran walked directly to Luo Zhiwei's side, her eyes full of affection: "We didn't leave yesterday because we were waiting to accompany you to see Old Master Gu today."
If Grandpa Gu hurts Weiwei, she will definitely not let them off the hook.
Luo Zhiwei nodded knowingly, then looked at Lu Jingxiao. Needless to say, he would definitely be there for today's meeting, even if he didn't say so.
Lu Jingxiao glanced at the time; it was around 11 o'clock. It would take about an hour to get there from the Lu family villa.
"Let's go. The boss just messaged me saying they've already left." Lu Jingxiao glanced at Luo Zhiwei with some concern: "Gu Hanchi is there too, Weiwei, are you really okay?"
Luo Zhiwei's face darkened, her eyes filled with hatred. This name was like a taboo; just mentioning it would plunge her into hatred.
“Of course I can. If I can’t even face him, how can I talk about avenging my mother?” She looked up at Lu Jingxiao and said softly, “Lu Jingxiao, you don’t need to be so careful. I can do it. I’m not a porcelain doll.”
Lu Jingxiao did not refute, but what he was thinking was: You are just a porcelain doll that I cherish in my hands, and I can't bear to see you suffer even the slightest harm.
"Then let's go."
He then turned to Gu Beixiao and asked, "What are you still doing sitting there? Do you need me to invite you?"
Gu Beixiao: "..."
The four arrived at the restaurant, and as soon as the door opened, Gu Yulin stepped forward, his whole demeanor as warm as a spring breeze: "You've finally arrived. Grandpa and Grandma have been waiting inside for a long time."
Gu Beixiao snorted and glanced at him with some dissatisfaction: "If you don't want to wait, you can leave. We're not late."
Gu Yulin: "......"
He and Luo Zhiwei are now practically the living ancestors of the Gu family; he can't afford to offend either of them. He could only nod a few times: "Yes, yes, we arrived too early. We should have waited, we should have waited."
She didn't want to talk to Gu Beixiao, she didn't want to say a word. What could two grown men say to each other?
Gu Yulin turned to look at Luo Zhiwei, his tone filled with concern: "Weiwei, how are you? Are you feeling better?"
"Yes, I feel much better. Thank you for your concern."
“We’re all family, there’s no need to thank me.” Gu Yulin’s expression suddenly turned serious: “Weiwei, my third uncle is here today, you…”
"Mr. Gu, let's go inside."
Luo Zhiwei's expression was indifferent, and she didn't want to say anything more.
She wasn't here to reminisce; she wanted to see what Old Master Gu and Old Madam Gu had to say, and also to meet Gu Hanchi again. Even if she couldn't bring Gu Hanchi to justice today, she wanted to instill fear in him, because people only make mistakes when they're in a panic.
Gu Yulin knew that Luo Zhiwei didn't want to talk to him, so he didn't want to embarrass himself.
After all, it's normal for her not to be friendly to a relative who has hurt her.
Upon entering the private room, Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu's eyes lit up when they saw Luo Zhiwei.
The two of them couldn't help but stand up excitedly, and Madam Gu walked over to Luo Zhiwei under everyone's gaze: "You must be Weiwei, right? You're so beautiful. Your mother has raised you so well."
Old Madam Gu gently grasped Luo Zhiwei's hand. The warmth of her hand was like an electric shock, making Luo Zhiwei freeze on the spot. She hadn't felt the warmth from an elder for a long time.
Her hands were so warm, it felt like they could warm her whole body.
"Madam Gu..."
Madam Gu paused, her eyes filled with disappointment.
