As he was speaking, Gu Sinan led Rongrong and Azhen to the restaurant.
In the restaurant, a variety of delicious food has been placed on the large dining table.
Gu Sinan took a quick look and felt that the dishes were quite rich, so he invited Rongrong and Ah Zhen to take a seat.
But as soon as he took the first bite, Gu Sinan realized something was wrong. The taste was exactly like Jiang Ranran's handicraft.
Were these dishes all made by Jiang Ranran herself?
Gu Sinan couldn't help but tremble in his heart, tears began to well up, instantly flooding his eyes.
"What's wrong with you, Brother Sinan?" Rongrong looked at Gu Sinan with some confusion.
Gu Sinan shook his head and pretended nothing had happened.
Gu Sinan felt mixed emotions after this meal.
After dinner, Ah Zhen wanted to take Rongrong home, but Rongrong was unusually disobedient and insisted on staying with Gu Sinan.
"Mom, can't you see that Brother Sinan has been in a bad mood?" Rongrong shouted to Ah Zhen when the confrontation between them was intense.
Ah Zhen really couldn't do anything about Rongrong, so he had to say reluctantly: "If you want to accompany Sinan, it depends on whether Sinan is willing or not."
As they spoke, their eyes fell on Gu Sinan.
"Stay, I like Rongrong to accompany me." Gu Sinan said, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
When Rongrong heard this, she almost jumped for joy.
Ah Zhen agreed that Rongrong could stay here with Gu Sinan for a while, but he did not allow Rongrong to stay overnight at Gu's house, which was too unruly for a girl.
Ah Zhen's thoughts are still somewhat feudal.
As night fell, Rongrong and Gu Sinan sat on the balcony looking at the moon.
Gu Sinan looked at the moonlight pouring down like a waterfall, and suddenly said as if inspired, "Rongrong, do you also think that I am too heartless to my family?"
"Something must have happened between you, otherwise you wouldn't treat them like that." Rongrong looked at the moonlight with a very serious expression, not like she was joking at all.
Gu Sinan was stunned. He thought Rongrong would persuade him to forgive his family like Ah Zhen did.
Gu Sinan nodded, inexplicably wanting to confide in Rongrong, "Yes, you are right, you hit the nail on the head."
"So what exactly happened?" Rongrong asked curiously.
Gu Sinan sighed deeply and told Rongrong about the Gu Group.
After hearing this, Rongrong smiled faintly, then looked at Gu Sinan with some ridicule, "Brother Sinan, you are so silly. Uncle Gu and Aunt Jiang don't have only you as their son. Why do you ask them to hand over the full management of the Gu Group to you?"
"What do you mean?" Gu Sinan inevitably thought of Gu Sixi.
"Maybe Uncle Gu thinks your brother is more suitable? Maybe he sent you away just to give your brother a chance." When Rongrong said this, a complicated look flashed in her eyes.
Gu Sinan actually listened to it.
Yes, maybe it was really as Rongrong said. Gu Sinan had always taken everything for granted.
Thinking of this, Gu Sinan felt a sense of loss in his heart again.
The fists under the table couldn't help but clench again.
Since that’s the case, then Gu Sinan might as well give up the position of future successor of Gu Group to Gu Sixi.
Anyway, from the beginning to the end, Gu Tingchen and Jiang Ranran didn't trust him.
"Maybe I really didn't do well and let them down?" Gu Sinan said with a stern face and a look of despair.
Rongrong curled her lips, with a hint of sarcasm in her words.
"It's like this when you have too many children. It's impossible for parents to treat them all equally." Rongrong seemed to see through everything.
Before Gu Sinan could say anything, Rongrong continued, "Before my mother took me here, I lived alone in my hometown. Although the children there weren't as well off as you, the principle was the same: parents always favored the child who gave them less worry and brought them face."
Rongrong's seemingly unintentional words were deeply engraved in Gu Sinan's heart.
"There is basically no place for me in this family now. My brothers and sisters all hate me, and no one talks to me anymore." Gu Sinan couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he thought of Gu Sixi and Gu Sibei's attitude that day.
He thought of how he had taken care of them in the past, and felt even more that he had been truly wrong.
"Brother Sinan, if you don't like staying at the Gu family, you can come to my house." Rongrong made this suggestion.
But Gu Sinan hesitated and asked Rongrong, "Your home?"
"Well, Brother Sinan, do you think my house is too shabby?" Rongrong showed a disappointed expression on her face.
At this moment, Gu Sinan already regarded Rongrong as his friend. How could he bear to make his friend sad?
Gu Sinan quickly denied: "No, no, I'm just worried about my family..."
Although Gu Sinan is still angry with them until now, he really can't abandon them immediately.
"They have all united to isolate you, what are you still reluctant to give up?" Rongrong said dissatisfiedly, standing up for Gu Sinan.
Gu Sinan bit his lips tightly, as if hesitating.
Rongrong stood up upon seeing this and said to Gu Sinan with some disappointment: "It is your freedom to choose to continue staying in this family. I have no right to interfere, but I really feel it is not worth it for you."
"You work so hard for them, but what do you get in the end?" Rongrong frowned, her face full of confusion.
Rongrong walked out after she finished speaking, but unexpectedly Gu Sinan called her.
"Can I stay at your house for a while?" Gu Sinan's voice was surprisingly gentle.
Rongrong was so happy when she heard this.
"Of course, Brother Sinan." Rongrong's face was full of pride.
When Rongrong brought Gu Sinan and stood in front of Ah Zhen, Ah Zhen's jaw dropped in surprise.
"Nonsense! How can this be done? What will Mr. and Mrs. Gu think of us if they find out?" Ah Zhen still cared very much about what Gu Tingchen and Jiang Ranran thought.
Upon hearing this, Gu Sinan's face darkened, and his tone was questioning: "So, you don't want to take me in?" Gu Sinan was a little disappointed. Is the friendship between people so fragile?
Ah Zhen immediately felt embarrassed, "Of course not, it's just..."
"Mom, don't worry. Leave this matter to me. If Uncle Gu or Aunt Jiang asks about it one day, I will take all the responsibility on myself. They will definitely not do anything to a child."
Rongrong's persuasion made Ah Zhen waver, and finally seeing that Gu Sinan had made up his mind, Ah Zhen had no choice but to agree.
That night, Gu Sinan lived in such a simple little room for the first time in his life.
Feeling wronged, depressed, and a little guilty, these complex emotions almost tortured Gu Sinan so much that he couldn't sleep the whole night.
