Volume 1 Chapter 738 Fun at Home
It turns out that he is the only one who is making a fuss about it, but these two brats have long forgotten what they did.
"Who told you to see it?"
"Oh~"
Lai Lai glanced at his old father, did not expose his embarrassment, and pulled Maomao to choose a storybook.
"Brother, Dad is so weird~"
"Don't go looking for death."
Maomao didn't understand, so she picked up a few storybooks and went to pester Gu Tingxiao to ask him why he was angry. Gu Tingxiao gritted his teeth and grabbed Maomao's collar to pay the bill.
"When you get angry, you'll know why your father is angry."
"ah?"
Lai Lai: “…” I told you not to seek death.
Lai Lai sighed deeply, and Pete followed behind him, his eyes softening as he watched the scene.
"Uncle Pete, do you think my brother is stupid?"
"What"
Pete didn't understand what he said. Lai Lai shook his head again like an old cadre, wondering why he couldn't understand.
Lai Lai felt that he had to learn English so that he could find someone in Country M to laugh at his brother's joke together.
Lai Lai reached out and held Pete's hand. Pete paused and let him hold his hand without saying a word. After they got in the car to return to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he sat in the car and looked at the sky motionlessly.
"Pete, you shouldn't get emotionally involved."
William reminded him, and Peter came back to his senses and looked at him without saying anything. In the end, he only asked: "What about you?"
The two of them didn't speak on the way back, and they both knew in their hearts what their final fate would be if they worked in this industry.
They are all desperate criminals who have signed lifetime agreements with the company unless they pay huge liquidated damages.
I don’t dare to get married or have children, for fear that I might accidentally bring harm to my family.
Especially Pete, his wife and children died because of him, just because he angered the person he was protecting and was retaliated against.
The scar on his face was left when he took revenge for his wife and children. Whenever he saw the scar, he couldn't help but hate himself.
"Pete, this is the only way we can live our lives."
"We can't afford the penalty for breach of contract, and no one is willing to take us in."
William couldn't help but remind him that he couldn't bear to see his friend suffer the same blow again.
Once you become personally involved, the relationship with your employer will no longer be the same, and you may even be displeased by the company and unable to get work.
Pete didn't say anything. Lai Lai's every move was on his mind. He was so similar... so similar to his dead son.
Be it his shy personality, his appearance as a little adult, or the childlike innocence that occasionally comes across his face.
Pete closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair. William glanced at him. He also felt sorry for his friend's experience. There was no one in this world who cared about his friend anymore.
He has seen the child. If nothing happened, he would be 5 years old now...
William recalled Lai Lai's every move, and as an outsider, he felt that it was like...
What's more, Pete is a father.
Gu Tingxiao and Sheng Wanyan were unaware of all this. Sheng Wanyan was at home listening to her two sons sharing about their horse riding experience today.
"So do you want to go to kindergarten?"
"Mom, I want to learn English."
Lai Lai put forward his own idea. Maomao originally wanted to go to kindergarten, but immediately changed his mind after hearing what his brother said.
"Wherever my brother goes, I will go."
"You don't need to accommodate each other. The kindergarten ends early, and you can also meet at the horse farm and go home together."
After hearing this, Maomao glanced at his brother, and Lai Lai looked at him, and it was obvious that he should go to kindergarten.
"Then...then I'll go to kindergarten."
Maomao still likes to play. He can play on the slide in kindergarten and play house games with other kids.
"Okay, I'll send you to kindergarten after the New Year."
"During this period of time, why don't you study English with your brother?"
Sheng Wanyan doesn't want Maomao to be isolated in kindergarten because of language barriers, and kindergartens don't accept transfer students now.
"good."
Maomao heard that everything would be fine as long as he was with Lai Lai. Although he usually bullied Lai Lai, he was also very dependent on his brother.
Sheng Wanyan went to ask for Gu Jingjing's opinion again, asking her whether she really wanted to learn elementary school knowledge. After finishing the art class, she could directly study in the institution next door.
"good."
Gu Jingjing agreed without hesitation. At her age, she already knew the importance of knowledge, and she didn't want to fall behind her classmates when she returned to school in China.
Sheng Wanyan made arrangements for the three children, and as for Yi Yi, she could only discuss it after the performance.
But Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao were planning to let Yi Yi go, otherwise their daughter would really become an illiterate.
Yiyi doesn’t know that she is an illiterate in her parents’ eyes, and she still thinks she is very capable.
That night, Gu Tingxiao told her many things and also told her many things that happened at home.
"Brother and sister-in-law listened to you and redeemed the gold bars. They also asked you to arrange for Jingjing's study and treatment."
"And this, this is the IOU written by my eldest brother and his wife, saying they will listen to you and sell the gold bars and return them to you when the time comes."
Brother Gu and his wife really care about their adopted daughter and even do more for her than for their own son.
"How was Dad's trip to Hai City?"
Sheng Wanyan is still worried about her father opening a supermarket in Hai City. After all, that is also her source of income, especially now that the twins have also come to Country M.
"It's done very well and has made a name for itself in Hai City."
Haishi is the first city to develop in China and it has many wealthy people. When Sheng's father opened this supermarket, it was instantly welcomed by everyone.
Even some local people in Hai City saw the business opportunity and opened supermarkets in other areas of Hai City. These were things that Sheng Wanyan had anticipated.
"So how is the property over there being built?"
Sheng Wanyan often sent a lot of money to Chen Zuhua, and Gu Tingxiao also often handled these matters for Sheng Wanyan. When Sheng Wanyan was not around, Gu Tingxiao made the decisions on many things.
"It's almost finished and we're just finishing it."
"That's good."
Sheng Wanyan was very satisfied. She had already imagined the profits that the property would bring her in the future.
"Chen Zuhua also bought a lot of land, and went to Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Kyoto and other cities to buy a lot."
"Wife, are you really not afraid of losing out?"
Gu Tingxiao also didn't expect that his wife would continue to buy land. You know, his wife had bought a lot at the beginning.
"How much does a Kyoto yard cost nowadays?"
Sheng Wanyan asked, and Gu Tingxiao thought about the courtyard he had inquired about for his wife over the past six months, and the price kept rising, and he admired his wife.
"I married a golden nugget."
Gu Tingxiao said this, and Sheng Wanyan glared at him unhappily. This man really knows how to coax her.
