Chapter 520: 354 Xunxun is My Son_1
Just as Tang Yue had hung up the phone call from Mo Shiting, he received a message from Tang Wan, “Did you manage to get in touch with Shiting? When can I meet his wife?”
Tang Yue replied: “The day after tomorrow.”
After sending the message, he hesitated for two seconds before sending another, “Do you want to see a doctor and get some medication to stabilize your emotions?”
Even though there was nothing wrong with her heart, Tang Yue was concerned that his sister might not be able to control her emotions upon seeing Gu Li.
Even though Qin Shurong had previously conducted a DNA test proving that Gu Li was not Tang Tang, Tang Yue could not completely believe the result, considering their striking resemblance.
So he decided to persuade Gu Li to undergo another DNA test with his sister.
As Tang Yue was daydreaming, a reply from Tang Wan came, “I’m not sick, why do I need to see a doctor? It’s you who should seize the opportunity with Yining’s arrival in M Country. Don’t disappoint your sister.”
Tang Yue: “…”
He felt just a hint of affection for Ye Yining; using the word ‘like’ would have been too much at this point.
…
Meanwhile.
Gu Li and the rest arrived at Murong Qian’s villa.
They got out of the car, laughing and joking around, only to find unexpected guests at home.
Looking at the extremely elegant noblewoman sitting on the sofa fully dressed in a cheongsam, Gu Li exchanged glances with Murong Qian. Clearly, Murong Qian was also flabbergasted.
“Mom, what brings you here?”
Yes, it was none other than Murong Qian’s mother, Gu Li’s aunt, Gu Qian.
Standing next to her was a man of around fifty, Steward Uncle Lin of the Murong family.
“Aunt.”
Gu Li defferntly greeted Gu Qian upon seeing her.
Though Aunt doted on her, she had always been quite strict on etiquette; she had held strict control over Gu Li and Murong Qian.
That’s why Murong Qian didn’t dare to let her know about her pregnancy before her marriage.
At this moment, with her sudden appearance here, both Murong Qian and Gu Li felt their hearts sink a little.
Where’s Xunxun?
Where did he go?
Not seeing the little boy’s figure around, both felt panic escalating, but felt guilty to ask.
Murong Qian particularly so.
With Lu Cong present, she did not even dare to ask, fearing it may stir up the situation.
Everyone in the hall had different thoughts running in their heads.
This was the first time Mo Shiting had met Gu Li’s aunt. As the prospective nephew-in-law, he politely greeted her, “Good day, aunt. My name is Mo Shiting, Gu Li’s husband.”
“Hello, please have a seat.”
Gu Qian nodded and smiled, her every move exuded a noble, elegant air.
Although she had never met Mo Shiting, she was familiar with his name and moreover, his exceptional qualities made her satisfied with her choice of a son-in-law.
“Hello, Aunt. My name is Lu Cong.”
Seeing his prospective mother-in-law, Lu Cong was much more nervous than Mo Shiting. Particularly as it seemed the mother-in-law did not seem to care for him, he had been there for a good while, yet she had not glanced in his direction.
‘I don’t look bad either. I’m handsome and tall, the epitome of a good man. Surely, I should have been more likable than that icy Mo Shiting? Why then did I get a cold reception in front of my prospective mother-in-law?’ thought Lu Cong with some resentment.
It must be said, Lu Cong’s intuition was spot on. Indeed, Gu Qian had not paid him any attention. After greeting Mo Shiting and Gu Li, she turned her gaze to Murong Qian. Her well-maintained face bore a hint of sternness, “Come with me.”
“Yes.”
Murong Qian didn’t dare to resist, and obediently followed after Gu Qian, heading towards the door.
“Aunt——”
Gu Li was worried that Xunxun’s existence had been discovered and felt worried for Murong Qian, and instinctively wanted to follow.
Gu Qian paused, slowly turned around and gave Gu Li a slight smile, although her eyes held no warmth, “Tang Tang, you stay here and attend to the guests. Your aunt and sister have something to discuss.”
“Oh.”
Seeing this, Gu Li knew she couldn’t intervene and had no choice but to give up.
As the mother and daughter pair saw themselves out, Steward Uncle Lin also followed them out.
With their departure, the tense atmosphere in the room eased considerably.
Unable to help himself, Lu Cong asked Gu Li, “Will Aunt cause trouble for Qianqian?”
He had felt an impulse to declare that he was Murong Qian’s boyfriend, but then it struck him that he might cause more trouble for Murong Qian. Hence, he gave it up.
However, the more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt, and the more worried he became for Murong Qian.
Gu Li gently shook her head, calming Lu Cong, “She probably… shouldn’t.”
Even though she said so, she wasn’t too sure herself.
In the Murong clan, getting pregnant before marriage meant being kicked out of the family.
