She jumped up from her seat, determined to see for herself who was disturbing their family's meal.
The door opened, and a woman with exquisite makeup appeared in the doorway. The smile on her face froze slightly the moment she saw Gu Baiwei.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Before Gu Baiwei could answer, she sneered, "You wouldn't happen to be Si Nian's nominal wife, would you? Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Si Nian's girlfriend, and we've been together for almost two years."
As Lin Xueting spoke, she pushed Gu Baiwei aside and walked into the house with an arrogant expression, her high heels clicking on her heels.
Gu Baiwei? ???
She hasn't said anything yet, okay?
Lin Xueting sat down next to Ye Sinian without a second thought, and the strong perfume she wore made Ye Sinian frown.
What brings you here?
"Of course I miss you."
Lin Xueting wrapped her two fair arms around Ye Sinian's arm in a coquettish manner. When her gaze fell on Gu Baiwei, who had returned, she pressed her entire body against Ye Sinian as if asserting her ownership.
Looking at the heavily made-up woman in front of her, Gu Baiwei instantly realized, could this be Ye Sinian's legendary first love?
Thinking of this, she looked at Lin Xueting with a shocked expression.
Lin Xueting noticed her gaze and provocatively moved closer to Ye Sinian, as if she wanted to cling to him.
Gu Baiwei couldn't help but frown. How could her son have fallen for such a technologically advanced and ruthlessly surgically enhanced face? And this was her first love?
Could it be that her son has poor eyesight? Does he just like this kind of girl?
"Stay away from me, you're making me smell bad."
Ye Sinian's cold voice suddenly rang out, interrupting her thoughts.
Seeing Ye Sinian push Lin Xueting away with a look of disgust, Gu Baiwei was even more puzzled. He didn't seem like someone who couldn't forget his first love.
Lin Xueting's smile froze. She bit her bright red lips and looked at the potato pancakes on the table with disgust: "Aunt Liu, have you forgotten that Si Nian hates potatoes the most? And you made them into this awful mess. Hurry up and throw them away."
As she was speaking, she picked up the plate of potato pancakes and was about to throw them into the trash can when a fair hand grabbed her wrist.
Gu Baiwei said with a stern face, "I made it, do you have a problem with that?"
"No wonder it looks like this."
Lin Xueting smiled provocatively, "Don't you know? Si Nian hates potato pancakes the most."
After she finished speaking, she put on a gentle smile: "Si Nian, shall I take out this garbage for you?"
"roll!"
Ye Sinian frowned when he met her gaze, then quickly looked away as if he was disgusted.
Lin Xueting looked smug and forcefully pulled her wrist away: "Did you hear that? Si Nian told you to get lost! Now get out of here with the garbage you made!"
With a look of disgust, he threw the plate to Gu Baiwei.
With a sharp crack, the plate fell to the ground, scattering the potato pancakes of various shapes all over the floor.
Lin Xueting clicked her tongue in disgust and was about to sit down when, with a loud slap, a loud slap landed on her face.
"You dare hit me!"
She glared angrily at Gu Baiwei, her eyes, heavily lined with eyeliner, practically spitting fire.
"Pick it up!"
Gu Baiwei met her gaze coldly, her eyes filled with unprecedented anger. All the hard work she had put in for half a day had been ruined by this woman so easily. She only gave her a slap because of her son.
Lin Xueting was startled by her fierce gaze. She covered her swollen cheek and looked at Ye Sinian with a pitiful expression, her eyes full of expectation and determination.
This woman is nothing more than a tool for a family marriage alliance. She is Ye Sinian's rightful girlfriend and his first love. He will definitely side with her.
Ye Sinian stood up from his seat, walked up to the two of them with a cold face, and his indifferent gaze swept over Lin Xueting, making her heart tremble for no reason.
"Apologize!"
Lin Xueting instantly gained confidence and looked at Gu Baiwei triumphantly: "Apologize, did you hear me?"
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Sinian said in a deep voice, "I mean, apologize to her!"
"What? On what grounds? She's just a tool for a political marriage. I'm your girlfriend, why are you siding with her?"
Lin Xueting instantly lost her temper and screamed hysterically.
Ye Sinian frowned deeply, his face full of annoyance: "Get out!"
"Ye Sinian! How could you do this to me!"
Lin Xueting's scream turned into hysteria, her body began to tremble slightly, and tears streamed uncontrollably down her face: "Ye Sinian, you bastard!"
With a loud slap, Lin Xueting slapped Ye Sinian hard across the face. His newly done manicure scratched his skin, drawing a few drops of blood, but his face remained expressionless.
Seeing his indifferent expression, Lin Xueting covered her face and ran out crying.
The door was slammed shut again, and the room fell into a deathly silence.
Ye Chuyue slammed down her chopsticks: "I'm full."
As he spoke, he stood up and went back to his room.
Ye Sinian stood there for a moment, his lips pursed, but suddenly his face turned pale, and he barely managed to stay upright by supporting himself on the table with his hands.
"Niannian, what's wrong?"
Gu Baiwei looked at him with concern, reaching out to help him, but he avoided her: "I'm fine..."
Before Ye Sinian could finish speaking, he suddenly swayed. Gu Baiwei quickly caught him and saw that he was biting his lower lip and looking pale. She immediately realized that he had a stomach ailment.
In traditional novels, nine out of ten CEOs suffer from stomach problems, and it seems her son won't escape this fate either.
She carefully helped Ye Sinian to a chair and instructed Liu Ma, "Liu Ma, go and cook some soft porridge, and also go find the young master's stomach medicine."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Suddenly realizing what was happening, Aunt Liu immediately ran into the room to find the medicine.
Gu Baiwei gently fed Ye Sinian some warm water. Seeing that his complexion had eased a bit, she carefully placed her hand on his abdomen: "Is it here?"
Ye Sinian froze, then said coldly, "I'm fine."
Gu Baiwei ignored her and directly found the right spot to slowly knead it.
Ye Yunting used to suffer from stomach aches frequently, and Gu Baiwei specially learned massage to take care of him so that he could feel more comfortable when he had an attack.
She reached out and pressed on Ye Sinian's upper abdomen, gently massaging it in a clockwise direction. After a while, Ye Sinian's complexion gradually improved.
Just then, Aunt Liu brought over the porridge and stomach medicine.
Gu Baiwei personally fed Ye Sinian half a bowl of porridge and then gave him his medicine before helping him into the room with the help of Liu Ma.
After settling Ye Sinian in, she was about to leave when she suddenly met a pair of worried eyes.
Ye Chuyue met her gaze and awkwardly looked away, saying, "I'm thirsty, I'm going to get something to drink from the fridge."
Seeing her insincere expression, Gu Baiwei sighed helplessly, "Yueyue, shall we talk?"
