Looking at her serious expression, Gu Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment.
Gu Xiuyuan?
In all these years, she had never called him like this.
But in the past two days, how many times has she called him by his full name?
He had long been accustomed to her gentle smile and curved eyebrows, but her appearance at this moment made him feel a little uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart...
Ji Shuyu covered the hand that was holding her, stroked it for a moment, and then broke free.
Gu Xiuyuan felt a tightness in his chest. Watching her pass by him, he subconsciously wanted to pull her back, but in the end he stopped himself, his fingers quietly curled up...
…
When Ji Shuyu and the other person came down from upstairs one after another, Bai Shulan had already returned to her room.
Xia Mei was sitting in the living room waiting for them.
"You haven't been home for over a month. Who are you showing your displeasure to when you walk in?" Xia Mei folded her arms and looked at her son. "You're pulling someone in front of your grandma, Gu Xiuyuan, you've grown up!"
Gu Xiuyuan looked at his mother, and Su Yan's frightened expression was all in his mind.
Seeing what he was thinking, Xia Mei smiled sarcastically. "Gu Xiuyuan, as long as I'm alive, you must put your thoughts aside."
"Mom, what do you want to do?" He was angry and helpless.
"Since you know I'm your mother, you should know my methods." She said, with a calm and composed manner that seemed to control everything. "Xiuyuan, don't force me to do anything."
"Mom~" Gu Xiuyuan took a deep breath. "Su Yan, what on earth is she..."
"How dare you mention that little bitch's name in front of me!" Xia Mei, who had always been calm and composed, suddenly stood up. "Gu Xiuyuan, yesterday's behavior was just a warning. If you don't restrain yourself..."
She narrowed her eyes dangerously, full of threat.
Gu Xiuyuan was annoyed. If Ji Chuyu hadn't leaked the news, how could Su Yan be forced into this situation?
Thinking of this, he glared at Ji Shuyu.
That angry look made her sadder than being cut into pieces.
For so many years, the war between mother and son has never stopped because of Su Yan. This time... the war has obviously affected her.
…
When Gu Bin came back from outside, the atmosphere was tense.
Looking at the appearance of his wife and children, he frowned slightly.
There is no harmonious atmosphere in this family all year round.
When she saw her husband coming back, a hint of surprise and joy flashed in Xia Mei's eyes. She didn't say anything, but slowly restrained her anger.
He hasn't been back for many days.
"Dad." Ji Shuyu and the other one greeted him.
Before marriage, Ji Shuyu lived with her grandmother in the old house. After marriage, because Gu Xiuyuan's relationship with his parents became distant, they rarely came back. So the chances to see them were not many.
"Yeah." Gu Bin nodded calmly. "Why are you back at this time?"
"Come and get your household registration." Ji Shuyu said calmly.
Ji Shuyu's words shocked Gu Xiuyuan. If he told his mother about the divorce, his mother would definitely not let Su Yan go.
His gaze was like thorns, fiercely wrapping around her and piercing her until she bled.
All the time, he thought about Su Yan.
"Dad, Mom." Ji Shuyu smiled faintly, "Xiuyuan and I would like to discuss with you about my studying abroad."
Her voice trembled slightly because of Gu Xiuyuan's returning malice and because of these words, their relationship was really about to end.
Gu Xiuyuan was even more shocked. What did she say?!
"Study abroad?" Xia Mei smiled, as if she could see through her thoughts at a glance. "You really are... open-minded."
"If the child wants to continue studying, then let him study. Why are you mocking him?" Gu Bin said displeasedly.
"Of course you support her studies. If she leaves, you will make room for that little bitch!" Xia Mei sneered.
"Xia Mei!" Gu Bin's face suddenly became a little ugly.
The Gu family couple had a weak relationship, but they rarely argued, except when mentioning Su Yan.
It was precisely because of this that Xia Mei hated Su Yan even more crazily.
Ji Shuyu was exhausted. Looking at her father and mother, she seemed to see her past self.
She was thinking about how to bring the topic back when Bai Shulan's door suddenly opened.
"Xiao Yu!"
The old lady couldn't even wait for the aunt to support her and ran out with a staggering gait.
"Are you pregnant, huh?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked.
Gu Xiuyuan turned his head in disbelief. What?!
"Grandma~" Ji Shuyu widened her eyes in shock.
"Why didn't you tell us you were pregnant? How could you hide such a big baby from us?" The old man looked anxious.
"Grandma, I, I don't have any..."
As Ji Shuyu was speaking, the old man had already held out his cell phone to her.
Inside is a photo of the pregnancy test kit sent by my aunt.
The old lady felt that Ji Shuyu was not in good condition, so she called her aunt to ask, and that's how her aunt discovered this.
"What did you mean by studying? Don't you want this child?"
The old lady was worried and sad, and even the usually calm Gu Bin stood up somewhat awkwardly.
Ji Shuyu looked at everyone helplessly, but didn't dare to look at Gu Xiuyuan.
Did he think that this was her method?
"You're such a big kid, why didn't you tell your family?" Gu Bin was a little angry. "Is this something you can mess around with?!"
Obviously, once the pregnancy news came out, and Su Yan came back, the excuse of studying became questionable.
"Dad, love is not what you think." Ji Shuyu explained.
"What is that?!" Gu Bin shouted, his gaze on her becoming increasingly cold, "Ji Shuyu, you..."
"Dad." Gu Xiuyuan spoke slowly, walked slowly across the door, and pulled Ji Shuyu behind him. "When did you start to care about our relationship?"
"What did you say?" Gu Bin frowned.
"As for our relationship, we have our own considerations, so you don't have to worry about it." He raised his eyes and looked at his father.
Ji Shuyu was blocked behind Gu Xiuyuan, blocking Gu Bin's blaming and questioning gaze.
Even when he was the most indifferent, he never allowed others to look at her coldly, including his parents. But this reaction made her even more sad.
If he had always been indifferent, she wouldn't have fallen so deeply into despair and been unable to extricate herself.
"Gu Xiuyuan!!" Gu Bin was furious at his son's direct defiance. "Think for yourself?" His face flushed with anger. "What do you want?!"
"You two, are you treating me like I don't exist?!" Bai Shulan was so angry that she pulled Ji Shuyu aside and said, "Xiaoyu, do you have any other plans?"
Seeing her grandmother's worried look, Ji Shuyu felt a pang in her heart, "Grandma, I didn't."
Bai Shulan was so anxious that she burst into tears.
"If you have any ideas, you must tell grandma. You can't hide them from grandma..."
Seeing his grandmother crying, Gu Xiuyuan hurried to comfort her.
"Grandma, I want to take Xiaoyu out for some fun. We need to get a visa. We can talk about studying abroad later."
"real?"
"Of course!" He nodded. "Xiaoyu will graduate soon. I'll take her out after the graduation ceremony."
The old man was skeptical, but was temporarily calmed down. However, the Gu couple had burning eyes.
Obviously, they don't believe this statement...
…
Finally, Gu Xiuyuan was called into the study, and Ji Shuyu stood upstairs watching her grandmother happily busy.
She was so happy that she asked the kitchen to buy fresh ingredients overnight.
Looking at the old man's busy back, Ji Shuyu felt a little sad.
If she really was pregnant, if she didn't want the baby...
