nGu Yulin looked at him as if he was a fool and gave him a half-smile.

n

n“If you can’t stand it or have any opinions, you can tell Grandpa yourself.”

n

nFrom the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Shang Jingheng not far away, and his heart skipped a beat. Gu Yulin decisively betrayed his cousin in his heart.

n

nBeing a poor Daoist would be better than being a dead one.

n

nMoreover, he really did not have the slightest opinion of Yiyi. He treated this little girl as if she was his own sister!

n

nNo matter how much his grandfather doted on her, how much he valued her…

n

nHe definitely would not have the slightest opinion or be uncomfortable about it!

n

nTaking a deep breath, Gu Yu Lin spoke very seriously, “Grandfather said that Yiyi is our younger sister. Fourth Brother, you should pay more attention in the future.”

n

nYes, as his cousin, he had reminded Little Four.

n

nAs for whether he would listen or not…

n

nGu Yulin snickered in his heart. He could not be blamed for seeking death!

n

nSure enough, when fourth young master Gu heard these words, he became even more annoyed. He looked at Gu Yulin in disdain and mocked him, “Second brother, I’m afraid that your tender heart will never change for the rest of your life. She’s just a pretty little girl. I don’t know what she used to coax this old man, but he actually treats her like his own granddaughter. Second Brother, I won’t do that even if you can bear to be her younger brother. She’s an outsider. What right does she have to take over our family’s resources?”

n

nHis gloomy eyes swept over Qin Yiyi, who was supporting Old Master Gu.

n

nFourth Young master Gu snorted coldly, “Look at her smug look. She really thinks she’s the Miss of the Gu family. A fake is a fake!”

n

n“Don’t spout nonsense. Be careful that Grandpa will get angry if he hears it.”

n

nGu Yulin glanced at Shang Jingheng’s side guiltily and saw that he was talking to the person beside him.

n

nHe secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

n

nHe probably didn’t hear it, right?

n

nAfter all, he had the intention to mock Gu Si on purpose just now.

n

nHowever, it caused him to be even more dissatisfied with Qin Yiyi, and he even said these dirty words…

n

nGu Yulin glared and spoke with a dignified tone that carried the reprimand of an elder brother. “You are our Gu family’s fourth young master. How can you speak like this? Why? Grandfather is still the family head now. Are you trying to imply that what he said doesn’t count? Then when grandfather steps down as the head of the family, will fourth young master completely forget about our grandfather and pretend that he doesn’t exist?”

n

nThese words were a bit serious.

n

nGu Si didn’t think that he was angry because he said something about Qin Yiyi, or that he stood up for Qin Yiyi.

n

nHe only felt that Gu Yulin wanted to show off in front of his grandfather!

n

nHe wanted to embarrass his cousin in front of so many people!

n

nHe snorted coldly, “Second brother, you don’t have to worry about the porridge. You’ve been by grandfather’s side all day long. I wonder how much you’ve earned?”

n

nGu Yulin felt that this idiot’s brain was filled with paste, right?

n

nHe just wanted to cause internal strife among his own family.

n

nWas this the right time? Right, right, right?!

n

nHe took a deep look at Gu Si, and a hint of wickedness flashed in his eyes.

n

n“At least you should call me cousin. I’ll remind you not to provoke anyone.”

n

nOtherwise, he wouldn’t even know how he died!

n

nBut Gu Si didn’t think so. He only gave Gu Yulin a meaningful look, and a hint of ridicule flashed in his eyes.

n

nSo what if he was doted on by his grandfather?

n

nLook, wasn’t he still unable to walk when he saw a slightly more beautiful woman?!

n

nA young girl who hadn’t even grown up yet.

n

nShe actually managed to coax him into sticking up for her in every way, obeying her every word.

n

nShe really embarrassed the men of the Gu family!

n

nOn the other side.

n

nQin Yiyi didn’t follow in front of old master Gu the entire time. After a wave of introductions, she gave up the position beside Old Master Gu.

n

nWithout saying a word, she directly pulled Gu Yulin over.

n

n“Take good care of Grandpa Gu.”

n

nLike a lively bird, she carried the corner of her skirt and ran to the dessert area not far away to eat.

n

nNibbling on desserts like a little squirrel, enjoying the food.

n

nShang Jingheng, who was talking to someone, occasionally raised his head and saw the little girl eating with her cheeks puffed up.

n

nAfter a while, he glanced at her again. She was actually still eating.

n

nAfter repeating the scene a few times, he frowned and nodded at the person beside him.

n

n“If there’s anything, just contact me directly.”

n

nHe then left.

n

nStanding beside Qin Yiyi, Shang Jingheng reached out and took the fifth piece of cake from her hand.

n

n“You can’t eat any more cake today. It’s not good for growing children to eat too much sugar.”

n

nQin Yiyi,”…”

n

nShe took a deep breath and glanced at Shang Jingheng. She was not in a good mood.

n

n“Mr. Shang, I’m already 18 years old. I won’t grow any more!”

n

nWith her height, she was already over 1.7 meters tall.

n

nGrow more?

n

n“That won’t do either.”

n

nShang Jingheng directly put the small cake far away. When he glanced at the cup in her hand, his face darkened.

n

n“You actually drank wine?!”

n

n“What wine? Where did the wine come from?”

n

nQin Yiyi was very curious. She lowered her head and looked here and there. Finally, her gaze fell on the cup in her hand.

n

nShe raised her head and smiled at Shang Jingheng innocently.

n

n“This isn’t wine. Gu-er said that it’s fruit wine. It’s not really wine!”

n

nVery Good, Gu-er!

n

nGu Yulin, who was helping old master Gu pour tea, suddenly shivered.

n

nHe turned his head to take a look and muttered to himself, ‘Why is there a draught at this moment?!’

n

n“It’s true that you’re drinking fruit wine, but it is still a type of wine. Moreover, this wine has a strong after-effect.”

n

nShang Jingheng looked at Qin Yiyi, who was sitting in front of him with a calm face and only her pair of eyes that were darting around were betraying her current situation. It was both funny and infuriating.

n

n“How much have you drunk?”

n

nHow much have I drunk?

n

nQin Yiyi tilted her head. After thinking for a moment, she raised her hands and actually started counting with her fingers.

n

n“One, two, three, five… Ten, eleven, eh, where did twelve go?”

n

nOkay, very good!

n

nIn an instant, Shang Jingheng wrote down the verdict with a bold stroke for Gu Yulin again in his mind!

n

nThen, he lowered his head and coaxed Qin Yiyi, who was sitting there looking for ‘twelve’ everywhere.

n

n“Twelve should have run home to wait for you first. I’ll bring you home to look for him, okay?”

n

n“Really? Wait for me at home?”

n

n“Yes, it’s waiting for you at home.”

n

nShang Jingheng looked at the rare hint of drunkenness on her face, as well as the cute and innocent look on her face. His eyes could not shift away from her.

n

n“Yiyi, let’s hurry home. Otherwise, we won’t be able to find it later.”

n

n“Oh, then let’s go back.”

n

nQin Yiyi turned his head and looked. She stood up and pounced on a piece of cake not far away,

n

n“Mine! Mine! All of it is mine! Don’t fight with me over it.”

n

nShang Jingheng,”…” This girl actually went crazy from drinking here!

n

n“What’s going on, Yiyi?”

n

nUpon hearing the commotion, Gu Yulin hurriedly walked over, afraid that some idiot would provoke Qin Yiyi.

n

nHe wasn’t afraid that Qin Yiyi would be wronged.

n

nHe was afraid that others would be tricked to death by this mixed couple!

n

nHowever, before he could steady himself, Qin Yiyi raised her hand, and a piece of cake directly smashed into his face..

n

n“Who is this? He’s so ugly! So ugly!”

n

nGu Yulin opened his mouth and reached out to wipe his face. His hand was covered in cream.

n

nGu Yulin: “….” Great-aunt Qin!
