“Bai Jie, Du Juan isn’t dead. She even gave birth to a daughter. It’s up to you whether you want to acknowledge her or not,” Chen Yao said detachedly. Her eyes searched around and found Chang Hui and her daughter were moving to the back of the crowd to hide. They had on indifferent expressions, but their gazes were sharp.

Du Juan took her child from the maid and stood beside Chen Yao, not lifting her head up to look at anyone, including Gu Fei. Bai Jie stared at the child in Du Juan’s arms in shock and muttered, “It’s a girl?”

Chen Yao nodded. “That’s right. It’s a girl. If you want a grandson, they can work hard to get pregnant again. They’re still young, after all. Of course, that is on the premise that Gu Fei is willing to marry Du Juan, and she, in turn, also willing to marry him—even after narrowly escaping death because of him.”

Bai Jie gritted her teeth and replied, “He’s willing! Gu Fei is willing to marry her!”

“Mom! I don’t want to!” Gu Fei blurted out without hesitation.

“Shut up! You have no say in this matter!” Bai Jie snapped at Gu Fei.

Gu Fei glared at Yun Liu. “Didn’t you say you have a solution? Go and settle this matter! If you can’t, I can also kick you out of the Gu family!”

Yun Liu furiously glowered back at Gu Fei, thinking, ‘What a genuine bastard! Feeding my kind efforts to the dogs would be better than helping him!’

“You’re asking her to settle this?” Chen Yao chuckled. “She can’t even settle her own matters, and you think she has the ability to settle your catastrophic mess? Isn’t that right, Yun Liu?”

Yun Liu couldn’t help but tremble slightly. Chen Yao looked at her and commented, “Yun Zhang is a nice young man!”

As if she’d been struck by lightning, Yun Liu quickly refuted, “No! That’s not how it is! Yun Zhang and I aren’t together! My beloved is—”

“Your beloved is Yun Zhang, and can only be Yun Zhang! Our Gu family can’t afford to be the butt of another joke right now!” Chen Yao sternly interrupted Yun Liu, who went silent, frightened by her imposing manner.

“Yun Zhang? What’s this about?” Zheng Xiu asked, voice trembling. ‘What does she mean by Yun Liu’s beloved can only be Yun Zhang?’

Chen Yao rolled her eyes at her. “You haven’t heard? You’re only concerned about Gu Fei getting on the trending searches, but you didn’t see the news about Yun Liu? Don’t you care about your own daughter? The news of Yun Liu and Yun Zhang’s intimate relationship also made it onto the trending searches. Everyone in the city knows about it.”

Zheng Xiu shot a sharp gaze at Yun Liu, and the girl paled. Hearing this, Chang Hui immediately became spirited. “Oh? Auntie, what’s this about? We’ve all been worried sick about Gu Fei’s matter and didn’t pay attention to anything else, and it’s all Yun Liu’s fault, too. If she hadn’t brought so many paparazzi with her, the media wouldn’t have been able to drag his reputation through the mud.”

“Before you came, I just scolded her a little, and the girl threatened me, saying that she was someone bound to marry into the Shi family, and that I couldn’t afford to offend her! So, why… What’s this about her and Yun Zhang?”

Chang Hui didn’t bother to hide her gloating and gleeful expression as she continued, “Weren’t the Yuns the ones who raised her? Wasn’t Yun Zhang her brother? How did he suddenly become her sweetheart? Oh, what an ill-informed woman I am. Auntie, tell me, what’s this all about?! Gu Wen, quick, search it up on the Internet!”

Everyone took out their phones to search through the news—no, there was no need to search. Yun Liu’s news was very eye-catching. No one had noticed it before because she wasn’t worth their attention.

“No, that’s not how it is!” Yun Liu shrieked. “They’re making things up! There’s nothing between Yun Zhang and I!”

Everyone gathered together and whispered to each other; no one listened to her at all. Only Zheng Xiu paid her any attention. The woman grabbed her daughter’s arm, gripping it with all her might. However, Yun Liu could no longer feel the pain from her mother’s actions because Chen Yao was standing before her.

Chen Yao stared at her with a gaze colder than arctic glaciers and uttered in a quiet voice that only Yun Liu and Zheng Xiu could hear, “You would dare to ruin Yun Nan’s marriage with me around? She’s my granddaughter, or have you guys forgotten? I don’t care if you have designs on others, but don’t blame me for adding fuel to the fire if you dare to target Yun Nan. You guys brought this on yourselves!”

Chen Yao took two steps back and gestured to her subordinate at the doorway. A moment later, Yun Zhang walked in, neatly dressed in a suit. He didn’t spare a glance at Yun Liu but instead, bowed very politely to Chen Yao. Chen Yao looked at him, gave him a kind smile that she didn’t have for her own family, and praised, “What a nice boy you are, dear.”

Only after their greeting did Yun Zhang turn to Yun Liu, and he gently said, “Yun Liu, I’m here to take you home.”

Yun Liu retreated from him as if she had seen a ghost, stammering in horror, “Who wants to go home with you? I don’t want to go home with you! I have nothing to do with you! Not a single thing!”

She hid behind Zheng Xiu, who glared at Yun Zhang warily. Zheng Xiu had already had things planned out in her head: as long as Yun Liu could marry into the Shi family, her status in the Gu family would rise far above Chang Hui’s. With that, she could keep Gu He by her side and raise her son personally so she didn’t have to worry about him being badly taught by Chang Hui.

She knew everyone else in the room only cared about Gu Fei, and not a single one of them was worried for her Gu He even though his reputation had clearly been affected by Gu Fei’s. But, even though it pained her, she knew that in the face of Gu Fei, Gu He was nothing.
