"No. I still have things to do." Huo Nanchen had come up with an idea. Lu Fang liked to buy bags and jewelry when he coaxed his girlfriend. It would not be wrong for him to pick out a present for his wife.
2"All right. I'll hang up now."
2After hanging up the phone, Huo Zirui's words came back to Huo Nanchen. He stood still as he thought about his question. Gu Ruochu was depressed when she saw his lonely and cold figure as she came down.
2She thought he had already left. She was now apprehensive. Seeing him lose his temper had reminded Gu Ruochu how terrifying he was.
2She stood on the stairs, her legs frozen and unable to move. Huo Nanchen seemed to sense her presence, and he turned around.
2Their eyes met. Gu Ruochu's emotions flared up inside her.
2"Is the Young Master going out?" Nanny Zhang came down from upstairs and quickly tried to smooth things over. She held Gu Ruochu's hand and led her down the stairs. "Why don't we have dinner together? It's still early anyway."
2Gu Ruochu did not say anything, but as soon as they got closer to him, she instinctively stopped. Huo Nanchen probably thought that she was promiscuous.
2His actions had made her both angry and a little scared. They needed some space away from each other.
2"No. I won't be eating at home today."
2Huo Nanchen saw her reaction, and the sense of powerlessness in his heart grew stronger. He averted his gaze. He looked calm, but there was a hint of bitterness in his deep cold eyes.
2He knew that he had hurt her with his irrational actions.
2After Huo Nanchen left, Gu Ruochu slowly walked over to the kitchen and poured herself a glass of ice water.
2"Young Madam, don't you like the Young Master?"
2"You know why we got married in the first place." Gu Ruochu did not answer directly. Some matters could not be discussed openly. "We don't have a foundation for love."
2Gu Ruochu felt that it was too late for them to start loving each other.
2"Love can be cultivated, especially for young people."
2Nanny Zhang smiled. "I've watched all three sons in the Huo family grow up. I know their personalities very well. Although Nanchen has a bad temper, once he's willing to tolerate someone, it means that the person holds a high position in his heart. Young Madam, your position in his heart is not to be underestimated."
2The last sentence made Gu Ruochu's heart waver.
2Was Nanny Zhang right?
2However, when she thought about it, the glimmer of hope she had felt quickly vanished. An Duo's words rang in her ears, constantly reminding her not to be stupid.
2She had been very greedy. After tasting his fondness for her, she had wanted him to love her, but instead, she fell into pain.
2"What does mother plan to do about Gu Li's matter?" Gu Ruochu put down the glass and changed the subject.
2"That woman is using her pregnancy to gain everyone's sympathy. Third Young Master feels sorry for her. He even quarreled with the Madam because of that thick-skinned woman. It's the first time I've seen such a cunning woman!" Nanny Zhang was so angry that her eyebrows were raised.
2"But let's all relax. A person like Gu Li will never be a member of the Huo family. At the very least, the Huo family will only accept the child."
2Nanny Zhang's impression of the Gu family was poor. Gu Li had only been pregnant for half a month, and she had already approached the Huo family pretending to be pitiful. She thought that she would be accepted by the Huo family because she was pregnant.
2Everyone knew that she had designs to be the Young Lady in the Huo family. Now, she was using Huo Zirui's desire to have a child to gain the upper hand. She was very good at pretending to be pitiful. Once she got what she wanted, she would go all out against the Young Madam.
