She should be thankful that a certain man wasn't here, otherwise the whole living room would reek of jealousy, and she would be the one to suffer that night.
"Grandma, you can take your time looking around. I'm going to the garden."
Shangguan Wu got up and left.
Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a tall figure out of the corner of her eye. When she turned around, it was none other than Gu Yunzhen!
How long has he been standing there?
"Honey, have you finished talking with Grandpa?"
"Um."
Gu Yunzhen looked at her intently, raising an eyebrow: "Going out?"
"It's right in the garden."
Shangguan Wu glanced at her grandmother, walked over, took his hand, and led him outside, saying, "Honey, can you do me a favor?"
"You say it," Gu Yunzhen said, letting her lead him away.
Shangguan Wu frowned slightly: "My mother's condition isn't very good, so I want to stay at home for a while longer. But my luggage is still at my grandmother's house, and I also need to bring Xiao Hei over. Could you help me with that?"
Gu Yunzhen asked with concern, "Is it serious?"
Shangguan Wu shook his head: "I'm fine physically, after all, all three of us in the family are very concerned, but my mother thinks too much and is depressed, which will also affect the health of the fetus."
"What happened?"
“My mother found out about my older sister’s divorce and felt that she hadn’t taken good care of her, which caused my sister to be hurt in the marriage. But what’s done is done, and there are no ‘what ifs’ because we can’t change the facts. All we can do is seize the present and the future and make up for the regrets.”
The last sentence was also what Shangguan Wu was saying to herself: she would not let those people go, but hatred was not her whole life.
"My older sister is coming over tomorrow. I'll let them have a good talk and clear things up."
Gu Yunzhen's eyebrows twitched slightly upon hearing this.
"lady."
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
"Let me remind you, you're talking about your mother, your eldest sister."
Gu Yunzhen deliberately emphasized the word "you".
Shangguan Wu: "..." I was careless!
She blinked twice, grabbed his big hand and shook it from side to side, her voice soft and coquettish: "Honey~ you're the best~ hurry back, I'll cook something delicious for you at home!"
Gu Yunzhen glanced at her slightly parted red lips, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly, but he restrained himself because they were at his father-in-law's house.
"Can you cook?"
"Not really."
Shangguan Wu looked up at the sky guiltily.
Gu Yunzhen's eyelids twitched. Judging from her expression, even if she dared to do it, he wouldn't dare to eat it.
"Really?"
"Then I can ask the chef to make your favorite dishes. I can learn from him while he's cooking, and then I can make delicious food for you in the future!"
Shangguan Wu thought it was worth a try, her eyes sparkling.
However, Gu Yunzhen had no masochistic tendencies and said seriously, "Sweetie, I know your feelings, but cooking will make your hands rough. Your hands are the hands that heal the sick and save lives, and also the hands that are used to blend perfumes. Leave these rough jobs to me."
"I feel so embarrassed."
Shangguan Wu said shyly, and before he could speak, she asked expectantly, "When are you going to make me spicy crayfish?"
Gu Yunzhen: "..."
I never expected her to have such thoughts; he had misplaced his trust!
Shangguan Wu blinked twice, looking both obedient and adorable.
"Honey, were you just kidding me?"
"I'll make it for you when we get home."
Gu Yunzhen was afraid that she would burst into tears at any moment, so she reached out and ruffled her curly hair: "Alright, I'll just take a copy of the hypnosis book to Brother Heng. I'll be going now."
Shangguan Wu exclaimed in surprise, "It's printed so quickly?"
The eldest cousin wants to learn hypnosis, and her husband is also interested in it. Perhaps the second and third cousins, as well as his three older brothers, will also be interested, since they all grew up together and have similar interests. Moreover, there are hypnosis organizations like the [Divine Messenger Organization] and the [Ultimate Organization] in the world, so there might be people from hypnosis organizations hiding around them. They have to be careful.
While it is true that as long as one possesses an iron will, one cannot be hypnotized, nothing is absolute, and one should always be prepared for the unexpected.
Therefore, they will definitely want to learn about hypnosis.
So Shangguan Wu and Gu Yunzhen decided to print thousands of copies of the book on hypnosis.
When there is only one of a kind, it becomes exceptionally precious, but it can also put the owner in mortal danger, for possessing a treasure is a crime.
But when this thing is everywhere, it becomes less eye-catching.
They only kept the original version.
Gu Yunzhen said in a low voice, "It's only a small part. He won't be able to finish reading it in a short time. We'll give him the rest after he finishes reading it."
Shangguan Wu had no objection: "Okay, you can decide for me!"
Gu Yunzhen smiled faintly as she left in her car, and Shangguan Lin rushed over immediately afterward.
"Misty, has he left already?"
Shangguan Wu replied, "He went to his maternal grandmother's house."
Shangguan Lin, seemingly lost in thought, suddenly stopped talking about his son-in-law and said, "The servants are all in the garden. What are you going to say to them? Do you want Dad to keep watch for you?"
Shangguan Wu's lips twitched: "No need. Dad, you go and do your thing."
Shangguan Lin: "..."
He was actually quite curious about what his little girl wanted all the servants for.
But Shangguan Wu looked at him, smiling without saying a word.
Shangguan Lin knew it was hopeless. His little darling didn't want him to know, so he sighed in disappointment and turned to walk into the villa.
A fleeting smile crossed Shangguan Wu's eyes.
In the garden, the servants looked at each other, wondering why their master had called them there. Were they to be dismissed?
But they really enjoyed working for the Shangguan family. Not only was the pay high and the workload light, but everyone in the household was also easy to talk to.
