Old Mrs. Gao glared at her former second son and daughter-in-law, a venomous look flashing across her face, though it quickly vanished.
However, Gao Dan and Yingying were not ordinary people, and even the Second Young Master Gu, who was standing to the side, saw clearly the look that Old Madam Gao had just given them.
Oh, what does this old lady mean?
Gu Ziling had arrested far too many extreme cases like the old lady in the management department, and she was well aware of the greed and inhumanity inherent in these people.
His eyes narrowed dangerously, and his scrutinizing gaze was fixed on Old Lady Gao.
No matter how formidable Old Lady Gao was, she was still just a country woman, a master of shrewish behavior. But when faced with the glare of Minister Gu Ziling, she couldn't withstand it.
"Who... is this?"
The old man, however, remained calm and composed, without even breaking a sweat. When Old Lady Gao asked him a question, the old man chuckled twice and explained:
"Oh, this is my second grandson."
Old Mrs. Gao forced a smile: "So it's the second young master..."
How can this be so scary?
Old Lady Gao only dared to think these words to herself.
The old man put the lid back on the teacup:
"Let's get back to business. Madam Gao just mentioned child support. Now that Xiao Dan has arrived, Madam Gao, please discuss it in detail."
Child support?
Upon hearing the old man's words, Yingying and her husband understood the specific meaning behind them. Because they understood, their faces twitched and they frowned.
Is this funny?
How dare this old lady from the Gao family ask the Gu family for child support?
Raising, raising, whose are we raising?
Ye Wanying pretended to pick at her ear, wondering if she was sure it wasn't a hallucination.
The man beside her exuded a chilling aura. When his gaze fell on Old Lady Gao in the main seat, his dangerous eyes flashed with a sharp, cold light, which made Old Lady Gao's face turn pale instantly, and her wrinkled fingers gripped the armrest of the chair tightly.
"Mother, the water is boiled."
Just then, Gao Ming came in, carrying a kettle that had just boiled water.
Grandma Gao finally came to her senses:
"Pour some tea for your father-in-law."
How could Gao Ming not know his mother well? Although he didn't know how his mother got out of there this time, how could the Gu family let his mother get that considerable child support so easily? It was obvious that the old man of the Gu family was not so easy to fool, and he had clearly seen the look in his second brother's eyes just now.
Therefore, Gao Ming was unusually clear-headed for once: I'm afraid this time... I've really overthought things, and I have a bad feeling about it.
After adding hot water for Grandpa Gu, Gao Ming also added water for his own mother, constantly giving her meaningful glances while his back was to everyone else.
I really want Grandma Gao to let it go and stop thinking about these unnecessary things.
Even after receiving her son's reminder, Old Lady Gao had no intention of changing her ways.
After all, that person had said that the Gu family was incredibly wealthy, and his family had raised their child for so many years, so what was wrong with asking for some child support?
If this old man doesn't give it to me, I'll ask God for it.
Why should we raise their kids for free?
Benefits must be given.
Besides, I didn't ask for much, did I?
That million was nothing to the Gu family.
Oh......
Old Mrs. Gao was really thinking too optimistically. Indeed, one million is just a drop in the ocean for a prestigious family like the Gu family, but how has your Gao family treated their children all these years?
Putting aside Gao Dan for now, just look at his wife and children. You almost took their lives, and now you want money?
That's a pretty nice idea.
If none of this had happened, the Gu family wouldn't be unreasonable. Considering how many years they'd taken care of their child, they would definitely have offered some benefits. But now...
Don't even think about getting a single penny!
