Chapter 278 A Special Gift



On the eve of the Chinese New Year, Lu Anning and Tang Jingyuan suddenly went to visit the Gu family. When they arrived, Lu Yunxi was surrounded by the family, chatting and laughing, completely forgetting what had happened a few days ago.

When she heard the name, Lu Yunxi's smile froze.

"Today is New Year's Eve, what are they doing here?"

Lu Yunxi frowned, and the uneasiness that she had suppressed with great difficulty in the past two days surged into her heart again.

The past few days have been quiet, and she hasn't received any more document packages. She thought that the phone call had a deterrent effect on Lu An Ning. Who knew that Lu An Ning would actually dare to come to the Gu family?

She tried her best to hide her panic and was about to find a reason for her father to refuse, but Gu Zhiwei agreed first.

"Please let them in!"

Lu Yunxi's face looked a little ugly, and she said hurriedly: "Dad, if they come to our house at this time, I'm afraid they have bad intentions."

"Don't worry! This is the Gu family. No matter how powerful Tang Jingyuan is, he won't go to the Gu family and make trouble. It's New Year's Day, don't hit those who smile at you. Let's see what they want first."

Lu Yunxi had to lower her head, but her heart was in her throat.

What she was worried about was not Tang Jingyuan, but Lu Anning who was following her.

The footsteps gradually became clearer, and Lu Anning followed Tang Jingyuan into the house. In the living room, all the members of the Gu family were present, and they all looked towards the door.

Lu Anning and Tang Jingyuan walked forward together, greeted politely, and handed over the small gifts they brought.

After a brief greeting, the atmosphere in the living room gradually relaxed. However, there was a subtle light in everyone's eyes, and it seemed that this balance would be broken if not careful.

Gu Zhiwei spoke first: "Old man, you are too polite. You made me come all the way here in such cold weather. We should be the ones to pay you a visit."

These are polite words, but everyone knows that outsiders cannot enter Panlong Mountain, and Mr. Tang doesn't like to be disturbed by strangers.

As they were about to drink their tea, Gu Zhiwei casually asked with a smile, "Jingyuan, you two came here specially, it shouldn't be just a simple New Year's gift! If you have something to say, why not just say it."

Tang Jingyuan smiled slightly. They were all smart people, so he didn't bother to beat around the bush.

"Indeed, they are here to give gifts! Not only the Tang family, but my wife An Ning also has a very special gift for you, Mr. and Mrs. Gu."

Gu Zhiwei and Ji Yan looked at each other, and Ji Yan was even more confused.

She and Lu An Ning hadn't been in touch since their last meeting. Their relationship wasn't good enough for someone to personally visit and deliver gifts.

Lu Anning smiled and continued, "I came here today because I have prepared something that I want you two to see."

As she spoke, she deliberately glanced at Lu Yunxi. She sat aside, staring at Lu Anning with a pair of cold eyes, her hands clenched, as if she was about to speak but hesitated.

This piqued Gu Zhiwei's curiosity, and he asked, "I wonder what it is? It must be an extraordinary gift for you to personally deliver it."

Lu Anning curled his lips and slowly took out a yellow file bag from his bag.

Lu Yunxi was very familiar with that file bag. The moment she saw it, she stood up from the sofa.

Everyone looked at her, and Lu Yunxi realized that she was acting abnormally.

Gu Yue saw that something was wrong with her and asked with concern: "Yaoyao, are you feeling unwell? You look so bad, are you okay?"

Gu Yu and Gu Huai also became nervous. Lu Yunxi waved her hand and said, "I'm fine. I just sat for too long and my legs are a little sore. Sorry!"

Ji Yan said with a doting look: "Child, if you can't sit still, let A Yu and A Huai take you for a walk in the garden so you don't get bored."

She knew that her daughter didn't like seeing Lu An Ning, so she gave her a chance to leave, but Lu Yunxi decisively refused.

She stared at the file bag in Lu An Ning's hand, her heart pounding in her throat. "No, I just want to talk to you guys. I don't want to go anywhere."

The smile on Lu Anning's face deepened, and he personally passed the file bag around Gu Zhiwei and delivered it to Ji Yan.

"I think it would be more appropriate for Madam Gu to open this document herself. Take a look first, and then we can talk."

The couple became even more confused. Ji Yan frowned, not understanding what Lu An Ning was up to. Just as they were about to open the file bag, Lu Yunxi suddenly called her.

"mom!"

Ji Yan was stunned: "What's wrong?"

"Well..." She was too anxious to think of a reason to stop her. Regardless of whether the document bag contained the identification results or not, she couldn't take the risk.

"What's wrong with you, kid? You're always so jumpy today!"

"I just want to say that since this document was personally delivered to you, it must be very important. Wouldn't it be impolite to open it in front of others? Otherwise, go to the study later and open it when there are fewer people around."

Ji Yan thought about it and it seemed to make sense.

Lu Anning smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Everyone sitting here is from the Gu family, so this is a good surprise for everyone."

Lu Yunxi gritted her teeth, unable to find a better reason to stop him. She could only watch as Ji Yan opened the document bag. Seeing those hands taking out the documents inside, Lu Yunxi's breath hitched. Suddenly, she rushed towards Ji Yan and collapsed on top of her.

"Mom and Dad, I'm not feeling well. I suddenly feel dizzy and my head hurts. Am I going to die?"

Lu Yunxi looked so serious, and coupled with her pale face, there was really no flaw to be seen.

Suddenly, the Gu family was in chaos and they hurriedly rushed Lu Yunxi to the hospital.

Gu Zhiwei said apologetically, "I'm so sorry! I'm afraid it's not convenient for me to entertain you today. Let's talk another day."

Gu Zhiwei was about to leave, but Lu Anning stopped him again and put the file bag that had fallen on the ground back into Gu Zhiwei's hand.

She told him firmly, "When you're done, remember to check the contents of the file bag. Remember that!"
