Gu Hong is such an arrogant person that he is sincere in saying these words.
San Yazi quickly chimed in, "Madam, the general has a straightforward personality. If you hadn't told him before, he wouldn't have known how to take care of you. But the general's heart is definitely on your side. As long as the general wants to treat you well, you will surely enjoy endless blessings in the future!"
Sanyazi vaguely felt that Fan Xing's teasing look just now meant something.
He didn't dare to think too much, and could only try his best to make the general say something nice. He was probably more aware than Gu Hong himself of what Gu Hong was thinking about Shen Ningsi.
Gu Hong glared at San Yazi and said, "Get away from me. It's just our family affairs. Why are you saying anything more?"
When he looked at Ana Shen, his eyes softened uncontrollably.
"What do you think?"
“…”
Gu Xiuwu responded with a disdainful sneer, "It's not like Mom can't take good care of us. It doesn't matter whether you're here or not."
Gu Xiuwu ran to the inner room after he finished speaking. He came out holding Kang Kang in his arms, his voice booming, "You didn't even name An An and Kang Kang. I went through so much suffering during my ten months of pregnancy, but you didn't even come. Why do you think that just by giving me a vague promise, you can make me follow you again?"
Gu Hong gritted his teeth and raised his foot to kick, but Shen Ningsi had already blocked Gu Hong.
There was an undisguised coldness in her eyes. "Is this how you treat your own children?"
Shen Ningsi couldn't stand Gu Hong's parenting style of either beating or scolding.
Before she could convince Gu Xiuwu with her heart, she never thought of taking action and only wanted to win him over with virtue.
Gu Xiuwen also came over. He didn't even look at Gu Hong, but just said to Shen Ningsi.
"Mom, Xiuwu and I can be your support. Although we are still young, we will continue to work hard and will never let you suffer any injustice."
Gu Xiuwen said bluntly, "There's no need to rely on a man who's completely unreliable. How can you suddenly be able to do something now that you couldn't do before?"
"Gu Xiuwen!"
Gu Hong's face darkened. He remembered Shen Ningsi's dissatisfied look just now and did not take action immediately, but the condensed air pressure had already spread all over his body.
"You just hope that your mother and I will have a bad life?"
Gu Xiuwen opened his mouth to refute, but Shen Ningsi held his shoulders.
"Wen'er, take your brothers and sisters out. Mother will talk to General Gu in person."
"mother!"
Gu Xiuwen couldn't hide his anxiety on his face.
What kind of person is Gu Hong? He has an impatient temper. If my mother can't meet Gu Hong's requirements, what will happen if this man takes action?
Ana Shen just glanced at him, “Wen’er.”
The voice was gentle, but Shen Ningsi's eyes were extremely firm, which almost made Gu Xiuwen shut his mouth instantly.
Gu Hong was already prepared for the two children to quarrel with him, but he didn't expect that as soon as Shen Ningsi opened his mouth, Gu Xiuwen swallowed all his words into his stomach.
Watching the children leave side by side, Gu Hong also waved his finger.
"All of you go down."
Fan Xing had wanted to leave a long time ago.
What was the point of him, an outsider, listening to the couple's affairs? Not to mention that according to the current situation, it would be Gu Shacai who would suffer the loss.
He hates evil and I saw this embarrassing scene of his, and I don't know how he will make things difficult for me in the future.
Upon hearing this, Fan Xing closed his folding fan and left quickly, not forgetting to drag San Yazi away with him.
Only Gu Hong and Shen Ningsi were left in the room. Without an outsider to mediate, the unfamiliar atmosphere between the two could no longer be concealed.
"General Gu."
The first one to speak was Shen Ningsi, and the first thing he did was to address her in a way that made it clear they were not related.
"As I said just now, don't take to heart what I said before. You said I was obsessed with you and wanted to be a widow for the rest of my life. That was just because I wanted you to keep your distance from me. I have already decided to support my family by myself and will never depend on any man."
Shen Ningsi spoke without any intention of being euphemistic. She spoke loudly and firmly.
"Now that we know your identity, everything will be much simpler."
Gu Hong frowned, his narrow eyes narrowed slightly, "Shen Ningsi, do you know what you are talking about?"
He did know that Shen Ningsi was different from other women. Even ordinary men would probably not be able to do what Shen Ningsi did.
But he also felt that Shen Ningsi's idea was particularly absurd.
"Not relying on men?" Gu Hong sneered. "What can you do to support your family? You live outside with your entire family. If there's danger, if someone like Wang Qiang shows up, what are you going to do?"
Shen Ningsi just said lightly: "Don't bother General Gu with these."
Gu Hong was able to remain calm even in the face of thousands of troops, but this time, Gu Hong didn't even know what he was thinking.
He pointed out how inconvenient it was for Shen Ningsi, a woman, to live outside with her family, but Gu Hong still felt uncomfortable.
"Shen Ningsi, I don't believe you have no feelings for me."
Gu Hong's voice was stiff. "Don't act on impulse. Don't just think about your own happiness now and ignore your future life!"
He looked at Shen Ningsi's calm face and felt that all his enthusiasm had been extinguished by the cold water. Gu Hong had told Shen Ningsi his name in a certain mood, and now he was in a completely different mood.
"General Gu, since I've said all this, it's obviously after careful consideration. I absolutely wouldn't joke with you about the children's future. In my opinion, if they continue to live with you, they'll probably suffer."
"I don't know what that brat Gu Xiuwu is thinking about every day. If I am not a little more dignified, will he listen to me?" Gu Hong asked back angrily.
Shen Ningsi was able to keep his composure.
Hearing this, she simply lowered her eyes lazily. "General Gu, do you think I'm a man of authority? Would I hit a child? But don't these children still listen to me and not you?"
“…”
Gu Hong choked and waved his sleeves angrily, "I don't want to talk nonsense with you. You are so good at talking, I can't beat you."
"Then don't say it." Shen Ningsi didn't care.
"After all, we were just a casual couple, spending just one night together. It's not a serious relationship at all. I don't need you, General Gu, to be responsible."
Shen Ningsi's expression was extremely indifferent. It was obvious that giving up this relationship was really not a big deal for her.
She repeated it so many times, and even if Gu Hong didn't believe it, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
