Chapter 143 Sending them to Africa to suffer
Gu Yuheng was holding the sweet and soft little girl when he was suddenly disturbed, which made him very unhappy.
His gaze followed the direction of the sound, glancing at it casually.
The boy's chubby little body trembled suddenly, and he turned around and hugged his mother's legs tightly.
The little face scrunched up: "Mommy, that uncle is so scary, he looks like Godzilla from the cartoon! Will he eat me?"
Gu Yuheng: "......."
Because the little boy's voice was quite loud, Su Niannian naturally heard it as well.
She gave Gu Yuheng a reproachful look.
Gu Yuheng shrugged innocently: "I just glanced at him and did nothing. That little fat boy was just too timid."
Su Niannian glared at him, then walked towards the mother and child.
She smiled and said to the boy's mother, "I'm sorry, my husband is naturally a bit serious, and he scared the little boy."
Gu Yuheng exudes a calm and powerful aura. Even when he is expressionless, he can still give people a sense of pressure.
How could the boy's mother dare to say "no"?
She forced a smile: "No, no, madam, you're too kind. The child is just being silly, my son was just talking nonsense."
Not to mention her son, even she was a little intimidated.
Seeing this gentleman is like seeing her boss.
I can't wait to make two PowerPoint presentations.
Su Niannian exchanged pleasantries with the boy's mother, then took out a handful of fruit candies from her pocket, spread them in her palm, and placed them in front of the little boy.
"I'll treat you to some candy."
The little boy looked at the candy wrapper, which was reflecting colorful patterns in the sunlight, and his wrinkled face immediately turned into a smile.
"It's so beautiful! I've never seen anything like it in a shopping mall. Thank you, sister."
These candies were specially customized by Gu Yuheng. They contain no additives and are made into a low-sugar version to avoid tooth decay caused by excessive sugar intake.
Gu Yuheng would always quietly put some in Su Niannian's coat pocket.
She can touch it whenever she feels nauseous.
Su Niannian put the candy in the little boy's hand, patted his head, and said with a smile.
"Little friend, eating too much candy will cause cavities, and going to the dentist will hurt a lot. So, give these candies to your mom for safekeeping. You can only eat one a day."
The little boy nodded seriously, and then left with his mother.
After this little incident passed.
The two spent another half a day at the amusement park. Because Su Niannian was pregnant, she couldn't play on many of the rides, which left the young girl feeling somewhat disappointed.
However, Gu Yuheng comforted her, saying that he would bring her to play again next year, and he would satisfy whatever Su Niannian wanted to play then.
"Aheng, let's stamp this so you don't change your mind later." Su Niannian puffed out her cheeks and held up her little finger.
A hint of helplessness mixed with doting flashed in Gu Yuheng's eyes.
The little girl often shows this childish side.
But he still cooperated by extending his slender fingers and hooking them around Su Niannian's little finger.
"Pinky promise, a hundred years from now, never to change." Su Niannian hooked her hand around his and shook it, muttering the promise.
As the last syllable fell.
Su Niannian looked up, gazing at Gu Yuheng through the warm sunlight filtering through the dappled patterns: "Now our vow is in effect, Aheng, you can't go back on your word."
"Su is three years old."
"What, are you implying that I'm naive?"
Gu Yuheng put his arm around her waist and continued walking forward, saying, "How could I dare?"
As they were talking, an elderly woman with white hair walked towards them carrying a flower basket.
"Sir, please buy a flower for your wife. These are fresh flowers I picked this morning."
The flower basket was filled with red roses, their petals unfurling vibrantly in the sunlight, dazzlingly red and breathtakingly beautiful.
Gu Yuheng took out his phone, gestured for the old lady to show her payment code, and then scanned it.
"I'll take them all."
The old lady looked at the phone screen and was immediately startled by the amount displayed.
She asked cautiously, "Sir, did you enter the wrong number?"
Gu Yuheng glanced at Su Niannian and said, "These flowers are beautiful and perfectly suit my wife's tastes, so they are worth the money."
This was the first time the old lady had ever seen such a generous guest.
She thought this young lady must hold a very important place in this gentleman's heart.
Otherwise, who would spend 52,000 yuan to buy these flowers?
"Thank you, sir, thank you, madam." The old lady looked at Su Niannian's growing belly and said with her blessings, "May you both have a healthy baby soon and live a long and happy life."
Then he gave all the flower baskets to Su Niannian.
Su Niannian smiled and accepted the flower basket: "Thank you."
She looked down at the red roses in the flower basket for a while, and then a deep, magnetic voice came from beside her.
Do you like it?
Su Niannian looked up at him and said, "Yes, I like it."
But she felt a pang of heartache.
52,000 yuan.
Gu Yuheng really doesn't know the value of firewood, rice, oil, and salt; how much hot and sour noodles would he have to buy for that?
---
The two had dinner at a French restaurant before driving back to the villa.
But as soon as Su Niannian got home, Aunt Chen told her that Grandma Su had moved back to the neighborhood where she used to live that afternoon.
Grandma Su felt that living here had already caused trouble for the young couple. A few days ago, she had gotten into that mess because she was greedy for cheap things. Fortunately, her granddaughter and unborn child were safe in the end.
Otherwise, she would be culpable and would never be able to escape the guilt for the rest of her life.
She knew her granddaughter wouldn't let her leave while she was there, so she called Li Li and asked her to come pick her up.
Upon hearing this, Su Niannian took out her phone and dialed Grandma Su's number.
The call was connected very quickly.
"Grandma, you were living here so well, how could you just leave us like this?"
“Niannian, Grandma’s friends in the neighborhood called and said they miss me and want me to come back and chat with them. Besides, she’s getting old and used to living in one place, so she doesn’t like to move. Niannian, don’t worry about me. Li Li is taking good care of me, and you and Yuheng will come to see me often. Living here is no different from living where you are.”
Su Niannian knew what her grandmother was thinking; forcing her to live here made her unhappy.
"But Li Xiumei knows where you are now. What if she comes to your place again and makes a scene demanding money?"
"Don't worry about that. Because of what happened a few days ago, Yuheng was going to send Xiumei and Guowei to Africa. The two of them were so scared that they went back to their hometown. They were afraid of being sent to that godforsaken place in Africa. Xiumei is trying to avoid it as much as possible. How could she dare to come back?"
Su Niannian was stunned for a moment. Gu Yuheng hadn't told her any of this, but he had silently done everything in secret.
She knew that her grandmother had made up her mind, and indeed, as her grandmother said, Li Li was meticulous and thoughtful, and she used to be the head nurse of a top-tier hospital, so there was no need to worry about her grandmother taking care of her.
So they stopped pressuring the elderly.
Hang up the phone.
She asked Gu Yuheng, "That chicken wasn't tampered with by Li Xiumei, was it? Otherwise, you definitely wouldn't have let them off so easily."
