Why does this nickname sound so nice?
The daylily beside her: "!!!"
Realizing what was happening, her eyebrows immediately shot up.
"Ji Zichen, what nonsense are you spouting?"
She retorted angrily, "What stepfather? You found yourself a stepfather, does your mother know?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Zichen said: ...
He turned to look at her, looking embarrassed, and said, "It doesn't matter whether my mom knows or not, as long as your mom knows, that's enough."
Upon hearing this, Xuancao exclaimed, "!!!"
I was so angry I jumped up and down.
But.
Gu Guanhai, however, stood up straight.
"Cough cough."
He coughed lightly and said to Ji Zichen, "Well, the food's getting cold. You should eat first, and we can talk about the rest after you finish eating!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Zichen said: ...
Suddenly, I felt there was a way.
He scrambled to his feet, rushed to the kang table, picked up the food, and started eating.
Gu Guanhai: ...
Seeing Xuan Cao step forward and give Ji Zichen a good scolding, she left the main room in a daze.
Qin Weiguo and Qin Xiangdong went out to look for Qin Yuzhu, and it's unknown when they will return.
Yu Mingxiang took her daughter-in-law's meal to the backyard.
When she returned, she saw only Gu Guanhai and Lao Yuan in the kitchen, and she frowned slightly.
Where are the daylilies?
She asked in a deep voice, "I asked you to deliver food to Ji Zichen, and you didn't even think to call Xuan Cao out for dinner?"
There was only one serving of food sent to the main room.
It was the same bland hospital meal as Gu Guanhai's.
Her daughter wasn't included.
Gu Guanhai heard this: ...
"This...that..."
After a while, feeling hot, he looked at Yu Mingxiang nervously and said, "Mingxiang, Ji Zichen's injury hasn't healed yet. You happen to be a doctor, what do you think, could we..."
In the end, Gu Guanhai glanced at Yu Mingxiang's face, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Upon seeing this, Yu Mingxiang exclaimed: "!!!"
His face immediately darkened.
"Can you do what?"
She said in a deep voice, "Could we let him stay and recover from his injuries?"
"Gu Guanhai, who just said that my daughter is your daughter?"
"I finally found Xuancao and I couldn't wait to keep her for a few more years. But what do you do? You haven't even done anything yet, and you're already complaining about my daughter? You're probably hoping someone else will take her away!"
Gu Guanhai exclaimed upon hearing this: "!!!"
He immediately shook his head vigorously.
"No! I don't dislike daylilies at all!"
He said anxiously, "How could I possibly dislike daylilies? I just... I just..."
In the end, Gu Guanhai got stuck again.
Yu Mingxiang frowned. "What is it?"
Gu Guanhai: ...
He observed her expression, moved closer to her, nudged her shoulder with his own, and mumbled, "I just think that the way that kid calls me 'stepfather' sounds pretty nice."
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang exclaimed, "!!!"
Her almond-shaped eyes widened immediately.
"What?"
She asked incredulously, "What did you say he called you?"
Gu Guanhai: "Stepfather! That sounds awesome!"
Yu Mingxiang: "!!!"
Looking at him, so engrossed and smug.
She pointed at him.
His face was contorted with rage.
She couldn't help but raise her hand and give him a light tap on the shoulder.
"Does him calling you 'stepfather' mean he wants you to marry his mother?"
She said angrily, "You little brat, you have a bad heart! I knew he was up to no good and was after my daughter!"
As she spoke, Yu Mingxiang turned to go to the main room.
Upon seeing this, Gu Guanhai immediately reached out and grabbed her.
What are you doing?
He looked at her with a fawning expression and said, "He's already calling me stepfather, he's called me stepfather! Just for my sake, please let him stay, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang turned around with a look of embarrassment and annoyance.
"Your face?"
She said angrily, "You've already sold your daughter for personal gain, and you still have the nerve to talk to me about face? Do you believe I... um."
