Chapter 172 Concerned Parents

Gu Nanjue pushed his glasses and pinched his brows. He couldn't sleep at all last night with the beautiful girl in his arms. He was woken up by Xi Yu early in the morning, and now his whole head was aching.

Secretary Zhang sent Xi Yu into the old house, and Gu Nanjue's mother, Ren Yuqing, was arranging flowers in the living room.

As soon as Xi Yu saw her, his little face was filled with smiles, "Grandma."

Ren Yuqing was wearing a green cheongsam. Although she was nearly fifty years old, she had a slender figure, and her steps were sparkling. She was as gentle as jade.

She had just cut a branch of flowers and smiled with narrowed eyes, "Yuyu is back."

Ren Yuqing put down the flowers in her hand and walked over.

"Madam." Secretary Zhang nodded respectfully.

Ren Yuqing smiled slightly and nodded in agreement.

"Was it fun this time?" Ren Yuqing asked Xi Yu.

"Fun."

"ChuChu and I had such a great time. It would be great if grandma could go with me."

Ren Yuqing rubbed his little face and said, "You're still thinking about grandma."

"Madam, I'll be leaving first." After sending the person there, Secretary Zhang prepared to leave. After all, the boss was still waiting for him outside.

Ren Yuqing raised an eyebrow, "Where's Nan Jue?"

She thought Gu Nanjue just fell behind and came in after a while.

Secretary Zhang hooked his finger and said, "Mr. Gu is in a hurry to go to the company. He will come to see the wife another day."

Ren Yuqing pursed her lips, "Outside?"

Secretary Zhang smiled and said nothing.

"You little bastard, you're at the doorstep and you don't even come in." Ren Yuqing said angrily.

"That's all."

"I have something to give him, please wait for me."

Secretary Zhang nodded respectfully and stood aside. Ren Yuqing had already gone upstairs.

A few minutes later, Ren Yuqing came down the stairs in small steps, holding a small bag in her hand.

"Give this to him and tell him to always carry it with him." Ren Yuqing handed him the small bag and Secretary Zhang reached out to take it.

Before Secretary Zhang received it, Ren Yuqing regretted it and took her hand back, "Forget it, I'll give it to him myself, so that he won't pretend to obey me but actually disobey me."

Secretary Zhang's eyes suddenly widened and he became anxious. What if his wife went out? Wouldn't the truth be revealed?
"Madam, I'll pass it on to Mr. Gu. Mr. Gu is a little anxious."

Ren Yuqing raised an eyebrow, "It's okay, I'll be out right away."

Secretary Zhang saw that he couldn't stop Ren Yuqing, so he could only worry and pray in his heart that he would not be fired by Mr. Gu soon.

Ren Yuqing didn't say any more nonsense and walked out.

When she walked out of the door, she saw Gu Nanjue's car parked at the door. She narrowed her eyes and walked over.

At that time, Gu Nanjue was resting with his eyes closed and did not notice Ren Yuqing coming over. Huo Rao was on the other side and did not notice anyone either.

A few seconds later, there was a knock on Gu Nanjue's car window.

Gu Nanjue pinched his brows, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes. He tilted his head to look out the window, his pupils trembled slightly, and he glanced at Huo Rao, then pressed the window.

"You little brat, you're already at the doorstep, but you don't even go in to see your mother. Are you looking for a beating?" Ren Yuqing said with dissatisfaction.

Gu Nanjue wrinkled his nose and said in a gentle tone, "Mom."

Huo Rao just heard the knock on the car window. She pouted her cheek, thinking it was Secretary Zhang, but she didn't expect it to be Gu Nanjue's mother. Huo Rao froze. She didn't want to meet Gu Nanjue's family. After all, their relationship was not innocent.

The carriage was so small that she had nowhere to hide.

"There's an urgent matter at my company, so I have to rush there." Gu Nanjue was very respectful to his mother.

Ren Yuqing pursed her lips and snorted, "It's really difficult to get you to go home. What's so good about having a son? It actually makes me angry."

Gu Nanjue chuckled, "Well, my daughter is still considerate."

"I'll leave the child to you and go traveling with you."

Ren Yuqing was annoyed by Gu Nanjue's criticism, "Your sister at least gave me a grandson, but you don't even have one."

"I'm really afraid that there will be no one to see you off to the end of your life."

"Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of you and dad until the end of our lives."

Ren Yuqing was furious and reached in to slap Gu Nanjue, "You little bastard, I'll let your dad deal with you."

"You just know how to make me angry all day long."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ren Yuqing saw Huo Rao huddled in the corner. She was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted, "Ms. Huo?"

Ren Yuqing sent Gu Nanjue to the variety show because she wanted to urge him to get married. She also followed their show. She was a loyal fan of Huo Rao. When she knew that Gu Nanjue and she were on the variety show together, she was happy for a long time. It was just that the two of them got along too awkwardly on the show, otherwise it would be great if Huo Rao could become her daughter-in-law.

They don't have any concept of family background in their family, as long as the children like it, it's fine.

Huo Rao just heard the conversation between Gu Nanjue and his mother. She didn't expect that he and his mother would get along like this. His mother looked like a lady from a noble family, so how could she raise a son with such a personality.

Huo Rao's body stiffened, and her fingers tightened unconsciously, "Hello, Auntie."

"What are you doing?" Ren Yuqing pointed at Gu Nanjue, quite surprised.

Huo Rao thought about it for a while, her voice trembling, "Mr. Gu and I were on the same flight, and Mr. Gu saw that no one was coming to pick me up, so he kindly sent me off."

Ren Yuqing seemed to believe her. She smiled and punched Gu Nanjue again, "You little bastard, Miss Huo is already at the door, why don't you take her in to sit for a while?"

"Where are your manners?"

Gu Nanjue just let Ren Yuqing beat him with a normal expression. After all, his status in this family was not as good as Xi Yu's puppy.

Gu Nanjue didn't say anything.

"Ms. Huo, this boy did something unkind. Now that we're at your doorstep, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea?" Ren Yuqing invited Huo Rao.

Hearing this, Huo Rao was stunned for a moment, then refused, "Auntie, I'll come visit you another day. I didn't bring anything today."

"No need to wait until another day, just today."

"I am your loyal fan. I have watched every TV series you starred in."

"I have several sisters who are your fans. If they knew I had met you, wouldn't they be so envious?"

Huo Rao touched her nose, not knowing how to refuse or what to think. She reached out and tugged at Gu Nanjue's sleeve, wanting him to say something.

But Gu Nanjue ignored him and just smiled slightly.

"Miss Huo, can you please do me a favor?" Ren Yuqing curled her lips and smiled.

Huo Rao pursed her lips and smiled awkwardly, "Thank you, Auntie."

When Ren Yuqing heard Huo Rao agreed, she smiled and said, "Let's go."

Huo Rao clenched her fingers, took a deep breath, and before getting off the car, she glanced at Gu Nanjue. He was the one who didn't say anything, so if his mother asked something, don't blame her for talking nonsense.

Huo Rao opened the car door, straightened her clothes, and smiled.

Ren Yuqing took her hand and looked at Gu Nanjue, "Aren't you going to the company? Why don't you go?"
