In the beginning, he was the one who forcibly wanted to bring Xiaxia back into the An family.
He liked the child very much the moment he saw him.
If he hadn't insisted that Xiaxia return to the An family, the child probably wouldn't have wanted to come back.
Unfortunately, his son and daughter-in-law didn't seem to realize this, thinking that Xiaxia had her eyes on the An family's money and was clinging to the An family and refusing to leave.
They don't even need to use their pig brains to think about it. With the An family's meager assets, who cares?
Before Lin Chuxia was used as a comparison, Grandpa An thought his two grandchildren, An Mingyu and An Mingzhu, were quite good.
He had always been quite fond of his granddaughter, An Mingzhu. He even thought the child was exceptionally talented in every way, and felt quite proud of her.
But now, compared to Chu Xia, he felt that Mingzhu looked a bit awkward.
Even when she was smiling, there seemed to be something else in her eyes, unlike the pure look of Chu Xia.
"I just don't understand. Chu Xia is such a good girl, how come they can't see that? If they regret it later, don't come crying to this old man..."
...
After bidding farewell to Grandpa An, Lin Chuxia left the An family's old house directly.
She knew what Grandpa An wanted to say to her, but... if the An family couldn't even accept her, they would never accept her family.
Therefore, she was ultimately unable to truly regard Xie Jinya and An Guosheng as her family.
I had expectations, hopes, and efforts... but in the end, I gave up.
Under the blazing sun, standing in the middle of the road, Lin Chuxia suddenly felt a little lost.
A taxi pulled up beside her. "Young lady, need a ride?"
Lin Chuxia thought for a moment, then nodded and opened the car door.
"Where is the little girl planning to go?"
Lin Chuxia didn't know where to go. In any case, she didn't want to go back to the An family for the time being.
After hesitating for a moment, she gave an address.
Neither Lin Chuxia nor the driver noticed that a low-profile black sedan had been following them.
In the car, Gu Qi looked anxious.
"Third Master, why didn't you go out just now!"
Having learned that the young mistress had finally left home today, he had been following her since early morning. He was so anxious because the Third Master hadn't made a move despite such a good opportunity.
"No rush," Gu Yuheng said calmly.
It wasn't that he didn't care about his girl, it's just... some things need to be decided decisively. If he let her continue to hesitate like this, the hurt she might suffer later would be even more severe than it is now.
"Third Master, you came all this way so early in the morning to keep watch, just to comfort the young mistress, right? If you keep going like this, all our efforts today might be for nothing!"
He even thought today that their Third Master had finally seen the light and was coming to comfort the Young Madam.
It turned out to be a false alarm!
"No way." How could he possibly waste his efforts? Gu Yuheng looked out the window, a rare smile appearing on his face.
Gu Qi was extremely frustrated: "How could you not know how... It's amazing that you can still laugh now, aren't you worried..."
Gu Qi's voice suddenly stopped.
Looking at the familiar surroundings on both sides of the road, he stared in astonishment, "This...this...isn't this the way back to Biyue Garden?!"
"Hmm." Gu Yuheng was always reserved. Perhaps he was genuinely happy this time, for he couldn't help but chuckle softly, a faint smile playing on his lips.
