One of the ladies shook her head, and it seemed that she had a good relationship with Gu's mother, and they were talking together.
"Did your son invite her? I don't know what's going on! She's dressed up so brightly, I thought it was a party for her."
Mother Gu's mouth twitched, and the smile on her face was a little stiff and awkward.
Shen Yuan on the side felt even more uncomfortable.
At that time, looking at Bai Lan wandering around, Chen Yuan suddenly felt a little sad.
He even thought that Gu Jiju brought this back on purpose to piss him off!
He wanted to embarrass himself, and even went so far as to call Bai Lan to disgust him at all costs!
Shen Yuan curled her lips and said nothing.
He just sat beside Gu's mother in a daze, his mind wandering elsewhere.
"Auntie! This is a gift for you!"
Just as Shen Yuan was stunned, Bai Lan suddenly walked over.
The gift in his hand was placed on the table, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
The box opened, revealing a set of precious jewels.
It even sparkled with diamonds.
"Knowing that Auntie loves collecting diamonds like this, I specially had a set custom-made overseas! I've been wanting to give it to you for a while now! And today's the perfect occasion, so I'll give you this small token of my appreciation. Please accept it!"
Mother Gu smiled happily and quickly patted Bai Lan's hand.
"You're thoughtful!"
"Aunt, do you like it? These jewelry are all the latest styles! They will definitely look great on you! I even had a necklace custom-made for you, and it's also here."
No matter what the style is, the price is here.
Shen Yuan frowned and took a breath of cold air.
Seeing Mother Gu's happy expression, Shen Yuan suddenly felt a little worried.
She thought she was just going home for dinner, so she didn't bring anything with her.
Empty-handed and simply dressed.
Stands out in the crowd.
Who would have thought that there was someone else in this living room!
Not only that, Bai Lan also brought gifts to humiliate herself!
"Hey, Shen Yuan is here too. What gifts did you bring?"
She knew that Bai Lan's being too attentive to her was definitely not a good thing.
Chen Yuan was a little confused by the question. He looked up at the other party and said nothing.
Bai Lan couldn't help but sarcastically mock him, and the sarcasm was even more obvious.
"No way? You came to the Gu family and didn't bring any gifts? This... isn't this a bit bad? I'm always so straightforward, don't take it to heart! I just wanted to ask why you didn't bring any gifts."
"What's the question?"
This time, Shen Yuan did not intend to let the other party go, but directly fought back.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Bai Lan was stunned for a second, and his eyes kept flickering.
"I……"
"Since you know it's not good to ask, why do you still say it? Does it have anything to do with you whether I bring a gift when I come to eat? But then again, you only come once, so of course you have to bring a gift, but if I come more than once, I can give gifts at any time."
Just a few words made Bai Lan stunned for a moment.
The last sentence was so heartbreaking that it surprised Bai Lan for a long time.
She actually hit back at herself so bluntly in front of Gu's mother?
Not far away, Gu Jiju just happened to walk over.
Bai Lan's eyes lit up, thinking that he now had a backer!
"Ji Ju!"
Sure enough, the woman shouted crisply, and her eyes looked at Gu Jiju for help.
But before Bai Lan could speak, Gu Jiju quickly came to Chen Yuan's defense and said:
"That's right, it's just a meal, why would you come over to give me a gift?"
Just one sentence, but it touched Bai Lan.
It was obviously meant for Bai Lan to hear.
Sure enough, Bai Lan clenched his fists and felt really uncomfortable.
"Auntie, I'm so sorry. I didn't know the purpose of this meal before I came here. I thought everyone was there, so I took the initiative to bring you a gift! I won't do it again next time!"
Mother Gu was still smiling, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
"Well, I'll find a chance to have a good chat with Mother Gu alone later!"
Under the gaze of Shen Yuan and Gu Jiju, Bai Lan got up and left in frustration.
Before leaving, he even grabbed Gu Jiju's arm and quietly came to the other side to talk.
Such a scene was just captured by Shen Yuan.
The woman's eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of sharpness.
"Gu Jiju, are you going to give me some face?"
Gu Jiju didn't say anything, but raised his eyebrows and stared at her.
The emotion in his eyes seemed to say it all.
"You were deliberately making things difficult for Shen Yuan just now. Don't think I didn't notice it! Did I ever tell you not to cause trouble for Shen Yuan?"
Bai Lan felt that he was in the wrong, so he sneered and did not refute back.
But she had already held a grudge in her heart.
“It’s okay. I remember clearly what you did and said today, but if you go too far in the future, I can’t guarantee what I can do to Shen Yuan!”
"Don't you cherish her very much? I want you to lose her forever!"
After he finished speaking, Gu Jiju gave a warning look.
A pair of black pupils seem to be able to speak.
The moment they looked at each other, he wanted to skin her alive and give her a good lesson!
"Bai Lan, you'd better not mess around."
Behind them, Mother Gu came over with Shen Yuan.
Gu Jiju suddenly said, "Mom, I still have some things to deal with at the company. I won't eat this meal today. I'll leave first."
"ah?"
Mother Gu didn't understand what was going on, and her eyes were filled with confusion and puzzlement.
Before leaving, Gu Jiju nodded, "And you, come with me. I'll ask the driver to take you back."
"Why?"
Bai Lan brought up the topic again.
This time, he even locked eyes with Shen Yuan and said bluntly, "I still have to stay and have dinner with my aunt! I can go back later, you don't have to worry about me."
