4634 Never Too Late to Love (41)
Occasional family gatherings.
More than ten years ago, because of an influenza virus, the Gu and Mu families became friends. From then on, the two families often held family gatherings and the children of the Gu and Mu families became very familiar with each other.
At the parties, the children and adults would form their own little groups.
Yun Tianyou and Gu Linxi liked to brag about their sisters when they got together.
!!Yun Tianyou loved to brag about how cute Yueyao was, and how he was sure that she’d grow up to be a beautiful woman. Gu Linxi would not be outdone and would boast about how gentle and sensible Qianqian was.
On the other hand, Mu Yichen and Gu Chengze would get together and brag about how good they were at fighting.
When the adults sat together, the two men were the biggest braggarts. Occasionally, when Gong Jie and Hua Jin returned from Hurricane Island, they would join them in boasting.
It exasperated Chu He and Yun Shishi to no end. It seemed that the relationship between the two families was born out of much bragging and boasting.
…
Yun Tianyou leaned back in his chair. His eyes widened in confusion upon hearing that Gu Chengze wanted to buy a property. “You want to buy a house?”
“Uh huh.”
“There are so many houses within the Gu residence itself and every inch of land is priceless. Besides, you guys own so many properties. Why are you coming to me to purchase a house?”
Gu Chengze said disdainfully, “It’s not like you don’t know my biological father who’s more like a stepfather.”
Gu Jinglian was especially harsh on Gu Chengze. Even the apartment he was currently living in was rented from him, and he had to pay rent every year.
Youyou sympathized with him.
It was said that in the Gu family, boys were the least favored.
Gu Xinghan, who was the youngest, was treated quite well. After all, he was still of schooling age. Gu Linxi and Gu Chengze, however, were in rather miserable situations. They lived in a vastly different world from Qianqian.
The girl was still schooling. She bought one branded bag after another. She had just entered high school and was at the age where she was preparing to get a driver’s license. She had even bought a Maserati in anticipation.
As the saying goes, life is unfair.
Under Gu Jinglian, Gu Chengze was like an adopted street urchin. He sighed. “Every family has their own difficulties. You’re not any better.”
Yun Tianyou’s handsome face fell upon hearing this.
That father of his was no better than Gu Jinglian. He had just turned 20, and Mu Yazhe held a board meeting to hand over the entire Shengyu to him as if he could not wait another day. Right after, with his arms around his darling wife, they went traveling around the world.
This was what the couple had agreed on. When the boy grew up, the company would be handed over to him. Yun Shishi would then retire from the entertainment industry and the two of them would travel the world together.
When Yun Tianyou protested, Mu Yazhe said annoyingly, “If you don’t like it, get married quickly and have a smart son of your own to take over the business. Then you’ll be free.”
Although he appeared indignant, Yun Tianyou did not complain at all. He knew that his daddy doted on his mommy, and had done so for 20 years. Mommy said that as an example of a love that would never change, Daddy had really doted on her for 20 years.
What struck him the most was that two years ago, when his mommy attended a class reunion, the forty-ish year old women who were the same age as her had aged beyond recognition. They also used high-end skincare products to maintain their looks, but no matter, they looked old.
Mommy was different. It was as if she had taken preservatives. Her face was so tender that there was no change at all.
Well, it was not necessarily true that there were no changes at all.
However, at worst, her skin had lost some elasticity, but little else had changed. Even her wrinkles were barely visible. Her classmates were very envious of her and asked what skincare products she used.
