The gentle force on her shoulders quickly calmed Chen Nian'an down. She closed her eyes and pushed away the picture of her mother lying in a pool of blood.
After a long time, he opened his eyes, his expression forced to be calm and expressionless.
"Okay." Old man Gu, who was in the upper position, seemed like the background board had finally come alive, and his old and deep voice permeated the entire living room.
He interrupted the endless quarrel between several people and said, "The food is cold, let's eat first. Xiao Gu, be obedient and come and sit down."
The luxurious and exquisite food on the table looked like fake plastic props from a play. The cold wind coming in through the window had long since blown away the warmth and aroma of the food. Even the oil seemed to have solidified, reflecting a cold light.
Gu Boyan moved, but he didn't walk towards the front dining table. He just hugged Chen Nian'an and turned to walk out.
"Gu Boyan"
Old Master Gu's wrinkled face seemed to be filled with a trace of pity, but on that face that was so wrinkled that his true expression could not be seen, it was hard to tell whether this trace of pity was real or fake.

Chen Nian'an looked up and whispered, "Gu Boyan..."
The surroundings fell into dead silence for a moment. The people at the table were quite patient and didn't seem surprised that they could easily control Gu Boyan.
It was the first time that Chen Nian'an saw him look so ugly. His eyes were filled with anger and a look of helplessness and struggle, mixed with sadness, making him look a little flustered and embarrassed.
Even his usually straight suit seemed covered with a layer of decadent fog.
Chen Nian'an was like standing outside the fog, and could only vaguely see some sharp bloody blades in the floating white mist, stabbing Gu Boyan's soft flesh.
What on earth is it?
What could cause Gu Boyan to react so strongly?
"Gu Boyan" Chen Nian'an's voice suddenly became louder, and he pulled his sleeve and repeated it.
Gu Boyan seemed to be awakened by these three words, and his hands, which were tightly gripping Chen Nian'an's waist, loosened hastily.
