Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Charlene looked at the calm and collected Gu Shaoting and felt very anxious. Her Brother Gu would most likely walk away after this drink.
It seemed difficult to get her Brother Gu drunk, but what if she was the one who was drunk?
Would her Brother Gu take care of her?
âBrother Gu, thank you for taking care of me all this time. Iâve troubled you.â Seeing that Gu Shaoting was about to walk away, Charlene quickly changed the subject to prolong their time together.
âItâs fine. Itâs no trouble at all.â Gu Shaoting replied patiently when he really wanted to walk away. Shu Pan took Joy to wash her hands. Why werenât they back yet?
Charlene suddenly had an idea. She rubbed her temples and muttered, âThis red wine has quite a kick. Why do I feel a little dizzy after drinking it?â

Her voice was neither loud nor soft, but Gu Shaoting was close enough to hear her.
He furrowed his brows but did not act.
Charlene felt a little anxious at his indifference. She feigned weak knees and stumbled forward.
Gu Shaoting had no choice but to help her up. âWhatâs wrong? Are you alright?â
Gu Shaotingâs frown deepened.
âIâm a little tipsy. My alcohol tolerance is really terrible. Brother Gu, could⊠Could you help me find a place to rest, please?â Charlene acted like she was about to fall.
Gu Shaoting saw that everyone was chatting and Shu Pan was not back yet, so he had no choice but to help Charlene to the guest room.
Charlene kept leaning on Gu Shaoting as they walked.
Gu Shaoting just wanted to quickly help her into the guest room so she could rest.
Shu Pan finally coaxed Joy to sleep. After Joy finished eating the cake and washed her hands, she began to rub her eyes out of sleepiness because she was too excited to see her parents when she got home last night and didnât sleep well.
Shu Pan brought her to their room at the old Gu residence and coaxed her to sleep before she walked out.
But she couldnât find Gu Shaoting when she came out. The mansion was only so big, where could he have gone to?
Plus, he told her that he would wait for her at the same spot.
It was really odd but never mind. He was a grown man; he wouldnât just go missing. Shu Pan was famished and decided to eat something first. freewÄbnoveâ.com
Shu Pan picked up a plate and got some food from the buffet table. She then sat and ate quietly.
Not far away, Song Can was chatting enthusiastically with her friends.
âYouâre really lucky to live in a mansion. Your son and daughter-in-law are filial, and your granddaughter is so cute and sensible.â One of Song Canâs friends said enviously.
âLucky how? You donât know the pain and suffering in my heart. Today is such a happy day, so I shall not talk about those unpleasant things.â Song Can sighed and said helplessly.
Her friend also guessed what she meant. She could see how Song Canâs daughter-in-law was gentle, demure, and had a good temper. It was clear from the way she spoke to her child. Despite Song Canâs reluctance to air her dirty laundry in public, her close friends knew about her troubles.
âChildren will eventually grow up and have their own lives. Let the bird fly from the nest. Donât worry too much. I just saw your daughter-in-law give you a branded bag. That shows that she values you as her mother-in-law. You havenât met my daughter-in-law, whoâs nothing but a lazy bum. You should be content.â Her friend said.
âSheâs just spending my sonâs money to please me.â Song Can had wronged Shu Pan in this regard. Shu Pan who bought the bag for her mother-in-law with money that she had saved up over two months.
âItâs the thought that counts.â Song Canâs friend felt that Song Can didnât realize how lucky she was.
She liked Song Canâs daughter-in-law the moment she saw her.
