Chapter 53: Patriarchy

Su Yuebai's grandmother pursed her lips, and then replied to her: "No need, my driver is waiting downstairs." ”

After speaking, she ignored Su Yuebai and walked straight out of the bedroom.

Su Yuebai sat by the window for a while, and Gu Tingchen pushed the door and walked in.

He walked over to Su Yuebai and sat down, put his arm around her shoulder, imprinted a kiss on her forehead, and then asked, "What did your grandmother tell you just now?" Look at your face as if it's a little bad. Well, your grandmother didn't look right when she left. ”

Su Yuebai looked at him and said with some melancholy: "My grandmother scolded me because of my cousin's matter. said that I was helping outsiders, and that the property she had planned to give me in her name was given to my cousin. ”

Gu Tingchen held her hand: "Your grandmother is also like your parents, patriarchal?" ”

Su Yuebai nodded lightly.

Gu Tingchen sighed softly, and then replied to her: "No way, the older generation is like this." It doesn't matter if the property is not property, you still have me, I will support you for a lifetime. ”

Su Yuebai chuckled. Although she didn't really let Gu Tingchen raise her, he really warmed her heart when he said this.

"Would you like to lean on my shoulder for a while?" Gu Tingchen looked at her and asked.

Su Yuebai replied to him with an "um", and then rested her head on his shoulder.

The two hugged silently for a while, Gu Tingchen just wanted to say, "Yuebai go take a bath and sleep", but found that she had fallen asleep leaning on her shoulder.

Gu Tingchen couldn't help but smile, then gently picked up Su Yuebai, walked to the bed, put her on the bed, and then covered her with a thin quilt. After that, he adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner before leaving the bedroom.

The next afternoon, Su Yuebai was sitting in front of the computer and working, when she suddenly received a call from her mother.

"Yuebai, your grandmother gave your share of the property to your cousin, you know?" As soon as Su Yuebai picked up the phone, she heard her mother's anxious voice coming from the receiver of the mobile phone.

Su Yuebai knew that her mother would talk about herself next, so she sighed softly in her heart, and then replied to her, "Mom, I know." My grandmother came to see me last night. She was angry with me about my cousin. ”

"Your cousin's business? What's the matter with your cousin? Su Yuebai's mother's tone sounded particularly unkind.

Su Yuebai had no choice but to be patient and tell her mother about her conversation with her grandmother last night.

"Are you stupid, girl? Don't you know how much your grandmother loves your cousin? You're still arguing with your cousin because of her affairs? No, her property is now out of your share, what should you do? Mother's voice was a little broken with excitement.

Su Yuebai tried her best to make her tone sound steady, not wanting to argue with her: "I don't expect my grandmother's property to live for the rest of my life, if I give it to my cousin, I will give it to my cousin." Besides, our family is not so shabby as to count on my grandmother's possessions, right? ”

"But that's money, and it's a lot of property, it's a pity to lose it." Su Yuebai's mother said regretfully.

Su Yuebai lowered her head, reached out and rubbed her eyebrows, and then replied to her: "Mom, I won't tell you first, I still have to go to work." Since Grandmother has decided so, let her go. ”

"Alas, you stupid boy who doesn't know how to do it, you know that if you work as a white-collar worker, your grandmother's share of property can cover your work for many years! Alas, I don't even bother to care about you. At this point, the mother hung up the phone without waiting for her to answer.

Su Yuebai put the phone back on the desktop and started working again. Because her mother's words made her feel bad, her work efficiency was not very good.

She stayed up until the end of work, and then she packed up her things and left the company. Today, Gu Tingchen was going to entertain customers, so she didn't drive to pick her up, so she drove her own car home.

When she got home, she sat down on the living room couch as usual and turned on the TV. A familiar face appeared on the TV, and it was her grandmother.

Su Yuebai stared at the TV screen suspiciously-why is grandmother still on TV?

Looking at the background, this should be a press conference held by Su's Enterprise.

Several reporters walked up to Su Yuebai's grandmother at this time. One of the reporters handed the microphone to her: "Old lady Su, what do you think of the relationship between your great-grandson Su Yuebai and Gu Tingchen?" You must be happy when they're together, right? ”

Su Yuebai noticed that her grandmother's face became a little gloomy when she heard the reporter say her name.

"Su Yuebai is no longer from our Su family, and it has nothing to do with me who she wants to go with. Please don't ask this kind of question in the future. After Su Yuebai's grandmother said these words, she left the press conference under the escort of several bodyguards.

Su Yuebai turned off the TV in a bit of a daze. Grandmother said she wasn't from the Su family? Grandmother actually said that she was not from the Su family?

She was just arguing with her cousin, why did grandmother say that? She didn't really care about property or anything, but her grandmother's words really broke her heart.

She hugged her knees and rested her chin on her knees.

The sound of pushing the door sounded, and then Gu Tingchen's voice came into his ears: "Yuebai, I'm back." ”

Su Yuebai didn't look back, just let out a sullen "um", which was an answer.

Gu Tingchen heard the unhappiness in her voice, so he walked over to the sofa: "Are you unhappy?" Or is there something uncomfortable? ”

By the time he said this, he had already sat down next to Su Yuebai.

Su Yuebai turned her head to look at him, and her voice unconsciously cried: "My grandmother said that I am not from the Su family, and she doesn't care who I am with in the future......"

At this, she couldn't help but sob.

Gu Tingchen showed a look of pity on his face, and then reached out and gently wiped away the tears on her face: "It's too much for your grandmother to say this. ”

After speaking, she took Su Yuebai into her arms, and then patted her back gently, as if coaxing a child: "It's okay, your grandmother will always think it through." There is nothing wrong with what you are doing. ”

In the early morning of the next day, Su Yuebai was sent to work by Gu Tingchen. Originally, Gu Tingchen asked her not to come to work and take leave to rest at home, but she still insisted on coming to the company.

If you are in a bad mood and take time off and don't go to work, what will it become? She is the editor-in-chief of the magazine, and she has to look like the editor-in-chief.

She got to work as soon as she got to the office. After working for a while, she received a call from Gu Tingchen.

"Yuebai, turn on Tencent Video Live, my family held a press conference today, and will respond to your grandmother's remarks yesterday later." Gu Tingchen's voice came from the receiver of the mobile phone, "If you are not busy with work, go and have a look." ”

Su Yuebai replied to him: "Okay, then I'll go over and see it now." ”

After hanging up Gu Tingchen's phone, Su Yuebai turned on Teng Xu's video. As soon as I opened the client, the video of "Gu's Press Conference" popped up.

Su Yuebai clicked on the pop-up window, and Gu Tingchen's mother's face appeared on the computer screen.

At this time, she was being interviewed by reporters, talking about the future development direction of Gu's.

After she finished talking about the development direction of the Gu family, she smiled generously at the camera, and then said: "Next, I want to say a few words about our family's Gu Tingchen's fiancΓ©e, Miss Su Yuebai. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, many reporters handed over the microphone. The flash flashed over her.

"Miss Su Yuebai's grandmother spoke at a press conference yesterday, saying that Yuebai is not from their Su family. There is actually some misunderstanding here. Tingchen and Yuebai are together, which is what we all want to see. The marriage of our Gu family and the Su family will push the cooperation between the two families to a higher level in the future. ”

When Gu Tingchen's mother said these words, her expression was very natural, her tone was stable, and everyone's beautiful demeanor was fully displayed.

Su Yuebai watched the entire live broadcast. During the live broadcast, Gu Tingchen's parents would praise themselves from time to time, and said that they would get married sooner or later, and they would not get married now, but the fortune teller said that it was not appropriate to get married in the near future.

As soon as she turned off Tencent Video, Gu Tingchen called over.

"My parents said nice things about you in front of reporters, which should be able to offset the negative impact of what your grandmother said before. You don't have to worry, we will always be there for you. ”

As soon as he pressed the answer button, Gu Tingchen's voice came out of the receiver of his mobile phone.

Su Yuebai was silent for a while, and then asked, "Did you let your family say this in front of the media?" ”

Gu Tingchen on the other end of the phone replied: "Yes." Without thinking, they agreed. ”

Su Yuebai's heart warmed, she clenched her phone, and then said, "Thank you." ”

"We don't have to say thank you. Okay, don't bother you at work. I'll pick you up when I get off work. After Gu Tingchen finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

At the end of work, Su Yuebai was busy with the work at hand, and was just about to turn off the computer and leave the office, but heard the mobile phone on the desktop ringing.

She originally thought that Gu Tingchen was calling to urge her, but when she picked up her mobile phone, she saw that it was a call from her mother.

As soon as she pressed the answer button, her mother's voice came from the receiver of her mobile phone: "Yuebai, it's really yours, the Gu family is willing to come forward to defend you like this, it seems that you are not lightly fascinated by Gu Tingchen." ”

Su Yuebai listened to her words and felt infinitely upset, so she said, "Mom, I still have something to do, let's do this first." ”

The mother on the other end of the phone still refuses to give up: "Yuebai, keep up the good work, don't forget the people of the Su family in the future." ”

After Su Yuebai heard this, she became even more upset, didn't say anything, and hung up the phone directly.

She quickly left the office. As soon as I got out of the door of the company building, I saw Gu Tingchen's car parked at the door of the company from a distance. She walked briskly forward.

After getting into Gu Tingchen's car, Su Yuebai heard Gu Tingchen ask, "After watching the video, are you in a better mood?" ”

Su Yuebai turned her head to look at him and said, "There was originally." But just now my mom called me, and I was even more depressed. ”

Speaking of this, she told Gu Tingchen what her mother said just now.
