It was already evening when the few people arrived at the resort, and the makeup and shooting started the next morning. Tonight, they can wander around and do whatever they want.
Lu Anning likes places like this, which are full of the atmosphere of life. The resort villa is quiet in the bustling city. Before he even went to visit, the two girls were already impatient.
Lu Anning and Ding Wan had similar interests and were shopping and eating along the way. Two grown men followed behind them, responsible for paying for and carrying the things, and also taking care of the various snacks they hadn't finished.
Gu Yue and Tang Jingyuan looked at the various snacks in each other's hands and smiled helplessly, not knowing that there was only doting in their eyes at this moment.
That's them. Under normal circumstances, the two men would never eat these little things.
"Just treat it as an indulgence."
As Gu Yue spoke, he stuffed the grilled sausage in his left hand into his mouth. It tasted good, but it was not a healthy diet.
Tang Jingyuan seemed to have gotten used to it. He was no longer surprised by the food in his hand, and when he walked among the crowd, he no longer had the burden of being an idol.
However, the two handsome men stood out in the crowd, and many passing young ladies frequently turned their heads and secretly took out their phones to take pictures. Handsome as they were, the two men's aura was too strong. Even if the young ladies liked them, no one dared to approach them to ask for their contact information. They could only envy the two girls walking in front of them who were busy chatting and playing.
We are all girls, why should others eat so well!
The two men followed along. Gu Yue looked at the little sister not far away and suddenly asked, "Miss An Ning, why did you suddenly ask us to take a photo together? Is there anything you want to tell me?"
"You figured it out."
"On the way here, she occasionally mentioned her parents, but she also asked about irrelevant things. She doesn't usually talk like this."
"When she feels it's appropriate, she'll naturally come to you. Now, let's think of a way to stop them from buying food!"
Tang Jingyuan really couldn't eat any more. Putting aside the question of quantity, the calories he'd taken in tonight alone would have been enough for him to exercise for four or five hours. Yet, the two of them wouldn't let him throw it away, saying it was a waste.
The two men usually call the shots in the company, but they never expected that one day they would be stumped by a few roadside stalls.
Over the next few days, several people were busy taking photos during the day. At the end of the day, Lu Anning was so tired that he collapsed on the bed and didn't want to move.
She had always heard people say that taking photos was hard, but she never understood. It wasn't until she herself was forced by a photographer to smile until her face froze that she finally understood the hardships of being a celebrity model.
From the initial excitement and anticipation to the final day when he couldn't wait to finish, Lu An Ning never found a chance to chat with Gu Yue. It wasn't until the morning of the last day, when the entire shoot was finally over and Ding Wan was too tired to go back to her room to sleep, that Lu An Ning finally found a chance to borrow Gu Yue's time.
In the quaint teahouse, three people sat by the window, watching the people coming and going in the ancient town in the distance, and their hearts calmed down.
Lu Anning drank some tea to give himself courage before speaking to Gu Yue.
"Brother, how is your relationship with father over the years? I want to hear the truth!"
Gu Yue paused holding the teacup, then raised his eyelids and looked at Lu An Ning.
"Why are you asking this suddenly? Isn't that how it is between father and son? You know the rules of the Gu family. Everyone must obey their father's orders. Although I have been managing the company over the years, the real decision-making power still lies with my father. Otherwise, I wouldn't have to accept the marriage."
These words reveal a certain helplessness.
Lu Anning could see that his elder brother was an ambitious man, and he was unwilling to be controlled by others, even if that person was his father.
"You can't even decide your own marriage, brother. You don't want to be controlled by your father your whole life, do you?"
"Silly girl, what are you talking about? As long as Dad is alive, he has the final say in the family. How can a child disobey his elders? Besides, everything he does is for the long-term benefit of the Gu family."
Lu Anning couldn't help but laugh: "Brother, you are not honest. I want to hear your true thoughts!"
Gu Yue's expression darkened: "Little sister, what do you want to tell me?"
"If I give you a reason to go against father, would you consider completely replacing father and taking control of the decision-making power yourself? Brother, I know you are an ambitious person."
"Little sister, tea doesn't seem to make you drunk."
"I'm not talking nonsense, I'm serious."
Gu Yue didn't believe it. "He's our father. What reason do you have to turn children against their parents? I know you're dissatisfied with some of our father's actions, but he has his own reasons. He has many difficulties in his position."
This is how Gu Yue comforted himself over the years, compromising with his father time and time again and following his arrangements.
"What if I tell you that Ji Yan is not our biological mother at all? She doesn't love me and is only nice to you because your excellence can consolidate her position in the Gu family and make her look good. Big brother, that woman is not our biological father at all."
Lu Anning didn't want to listen to Gu Yue's self-consolation anymore. During these years in the Gu family, he was controlled by these ridiculous reasons.
She placed the prepared appraisal report in front of Gu Yue. The data would not lie.
She originally wanted to proceed step by step, but after hearing what Gu Yue said, Lu Anning didn't want to try anymore.
Lu Anning had prepared many words to explain to Gu Yue, but Gu Yue only took a quick look at the identification results and did not react much.
Lu Anning was stunned: "You don't believe it?"
Gu Yue curled his lips: "It's not that I don't believe it, but I know it."
"You know?"
Lu Anning was a little slow to react. She wondered when her elder brother knew about it. She looked at Tang Jingyuan, thinking that he had told her in advance.
Tang Jingyuan waved his hands helplessly. Since it was a matter of privacy, he would not say any more.
Gu Yue explained with a smile: "When I found out that she treated you badly, I became suspicious. I secretly took your hair and did a paternity test with her. However, I haven't figured out how to tell you yet. I didn't expect that you already knew."
