Under the gaze of everyone, Mu Ning opened the red envelope.
She reached in and when she pinched it, she noticed something was wrong. It wasn't the texture of money.
Everyone became more curious when they saw her reaction. What was it?
After Mu Ning paused with his fingers, he pulled out the thing.
Everyone was stunned on the spot, and then opened their mouths.
"Damn it, isn't it? New Year's red envelopes are directly blocked on bank cards?! What kind of operation is this!"
"I can only say that it's awesome! Master Gu, is... handing over his bank card?
"Bah, bah, bah, what nonsense are you talking about! The husband only handed over his bank card to his wife. They don't have this kind of relationship..."
"That's right, the amount must be too big. The red envelope can hold up to 10,000 yuan and it will be full to death."
"Oh my god, I'm curious as to how much lucky money Mr. Gu has prepared for Miss Mu Ning! I can't even put it in the red envelope, so I have to give it directly to the bank card!"
The servants surrounded Mu Ning with envy on their faces.
"Miss Yun Si, how many red envelopes did the old lady seal for you? I saw you were very happy to get the red envelopes while eating." someone asked.
After Gu Yunsi heard this, he gritted his teeth angrily, "Why are you asking so many questions? Pay attention to your own identity!"
She originally wanted to humiliate Mu Ning, but unexpectedly she was slapped in the face by Mu Ning!
Gu Yunsi glared at the servant and walked away angrily.
Mu Ning looked at Gu Yunsi's back and curled his lips speechlessly, childishly.
As soon as she turned her head, she met Gu Zhiyin's eyes.
Gu Zhiyin was still drinking. It seemed that he had just finished a round and stopped to rest in the middle.
Mu Ning held the bank card between his fingers and shook it at him.
He curled his lower lip slightly, put the cigarette to his lips, bit it lightly, lit it, took a puff, and continued to look at her.
Mu Ning raised his other hand and made a five sign to him, with doubt in his eyes.
Gu Zhiyin smiled and shook his head.
Mu Ning raised his eyebrows and made an eight sign.
Eight million?
Gu Zhiyin continued to shake his head.
The two of them started playing riddles across a long distance.
In the end, Mu Ning couldn't guess anymore. She wrinkled her face. How much was it?
Gu Zhiyin leaned back on the chair and smiled secretly.
Mu Ning felt extremely itchy. When he saw an elder walking up to Gu Zhiyin and asking him to drink, he stopped looking at Mu Ning and stood up to deal with it.
Bad men know how to whet her appetite.
Forget it, she'll find out when she goes to the ATM to check.
"Ayin, I said you are not young anymore. Your eldest and second uncle have both got wives and grandchildren. It's time for you to work harder. Let's see when you bring a girlfriend home."
"Well, I'll have a chance next time." Gu Zhiyin held the wine glass, absent-mindedly.
"I see you keep looking over there. Are you worried about that girl Mu Ning?"
Gu Zhiyin looked at Mu Ning more directly this time and said "hmm" in a low voice.
"I'm not telling you, you are too stubborn. Didn't that girl give the old man some blood transfusion when she was a child? In the end, she didn't save the old man. You have to remember this little kindness for the rest of your life?"
Gu Zhiyin withdrew his gaze and gave the man a cold look.
The man didn't seem to notice that something was wrong with Gu Zhiyin, and continued: "I have done my best to raise her up. Is it possible that I have to raise her for the rest of my life? Send her away quickly. Isn't Mr. Wang looking for a little wife recently? Maybe you can sell this girl to him. It can still be sold at a good price..."
"Wow!"
Gu Zhiyin tilted his wrist and poured all the red wine in his hand onto the man.
The man screamed, "Gu Zhiyin, you..."
"Sorry, I drank too much." Gu Zhiyin put down the wine glass, picked up the towel and wiped his hands.
He wiped his hands slowly, held a cigarette in his mouth, and looked down at the man.
The man's face turned blue and white. He knew that Gu Zhiyin did it on purpose, but he dared not speak out in anger. He held the drink stiffly, not daring to walk, not dare to speak, not even daring to look into his eyes.
Gu Zhiyin sneered, threw down the towel, and left the seat expressionlessly.
After Gu Zhiyin left, the man felt as if he had received an amnesty. He returned to his seat dejectedly with the wine glass in hand and complained to his wife.
"Is Gu Zhiyin mentally ill? He's teaching me a lesson for a stinky girl."
"Okay, don't be angry, just wipe it off."
"I'm doing it for his own good, but he really doesn't know what's good or bad! It takes more than ten years to repay such a small kindness, isn't it crazy! Doesn't he want to get married and have children? How can his future wife bear to have a woman at home?!"
"Hey, I heard that Gu Zhiyin lives with that girl Mu Ning! Is there something wrong with this lonely man and woman..."
"Shh, don't talk nonsense. How can you say such nonsense..."
The man spoke very loudly because he was angry, and everyone around him looked at him in surprise.
And these words quickly reached the old lady's ears.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Gu Zhiyin was called to the teahouse.
The old lady was making tea and asked him to find a place to sit.
Gu Zhiyin took a look and sat down on the sofa.
"Coming to you, you should have guessed what I want to say."
Gu Zhiyin lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"I won't beat around the bush with you. The Qiao family is pressing hard. Your marriage to Qiao Wan must be settled immediately to make me feel at ease and to give an explanation to the Qiao family."
Gu Zhiyin raised his head with a cold expression.
The old lady poured out the brewed tea again, "I know what you want to say, Ayin, marriage is not a child's play, and it is not something you can decide alone. You come from such a noble family, it is not up to you."
Gu Zhiyin smiled, "Grandma, do you want Qiao Wan to end up like my mother?"
"Gu Zhiyin! Don't mention that woman to me!"
Mrs. Gu suddenly shouted angrily.
Gu Zhiyin's mother had an extremely failed marriage with his father.
Even though Gu Zhiyin's mother was very pitiful, it didn't stop the old lady from hating her for so many years, so that every time she mentioned his mother, the old lady would lose control.
The old lady calmed down and said, "Choose a good day in the first month of the year to get engaged. After the Lantern Festival, I will discuss with the Qiao family and arrange for you to get married!"
Gu Zhiyin sneered disdainfully and stood up, "Since grandma doesn't need my consent, why did you ask me to do it?"
"Gu Zhiyin, I am informing you that you should behave well in front of the Qiao family!"
"It can't be done." Gu Zhiyin's voice became lazier after drinking. "It's up to you. You can have a banquet without the groom."
Mrs. Gu was so angry that she didn't say anything.
Gu Zhiyin smiled and said, "Grandma, I drank too much and talked nonsense to make you unhappy. Don't mind. I'll go back and rest first."
Seeing him turn around and leave, Mrs. Gu's face turned livid, "Gu Zhiyin, stop right there!"
Gu Zhiyin walked out without looking back.
"Don't you want your mother to enter the Gu family tree? This is your mother's wish until she dies!"
The man who walked to the door suddenly stopped.
He turned around and stood in the shadows, his face dark and unreadable, "What do you want to do?"
"Stay and live peacefully in the old house, waiting for the Qiao family to come."
Gu Zhiyin tightened her fingers and stared at Mrs. Gu coldly.
"Also, there is something I want to remind you. That girl Mu Ning is getting older. You should send her away as soon as possible to avoid any gossip."
Gu Zhiyin held the door open, her voice cold and without any warmth, "I will tell them to shut up."
"Do you need me to remind you to be more direct?"
Mrs. Gu slapped the table, "I heard that you have someone you like, is she her? You are so confused! How could you treat her... Forget it, get the person away quickly, and I won't pursue this matter with you. !”
Gu Zhiyin looked at Mrs. Gu quietly and suddenly sneered, "Did Qiao Wan tell you?"
Mrs. Gu snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter who told me, the point is that you send the person away quickly!"
Gu Zhiyin looked at her in silence for a moment, "She is my adopted child. No one can decide whether she stays or not except me."
Gu Zhiyin opened the door and went out.
Mrs. Gu was still yelling something behind her, but was locked in the room by the door.
He walked quickly through the corridor, took out his cigarette and wanted to light it. When he saw Mu Ning surrounded by a group of people, chatting happily, he suddenly stopped, took off his cigarette, and stood in the corner looking at her.
