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?
āBrother Gu, thank you for taking care of me all this time. Iāve troubled you.ā Seeing that Gu Shaoting was about to walk away, Charlene quickly changed the subject to prolong their time together.
āItās fine. Itās no trouble at all.ā Gu Shaoting replied patiently when he really wanted to walk away. Shu Pan took Joy to wash her hands. Why werenāt they back yet?
Charlene suddenly had an idea. She rubbed her temples and muttered, āThis red wine has quite a kick. Why do I feel a little dizzy after drinking it?ā

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. āWhatās wrong? Are you alright?ā
Gu Shaotingās frown deepened.
āIām a little tipsy. My alcohol tolerance is really terrible. Brother Gu, couldā¦ Could you help me find a place to rest, please?ā 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 didnāt 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 couldnāt 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 wouldnāt just go missing. Shu Pan was famished and decided to eat something first. freewÄbnoveā.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.
āYouāre really lucky to live in a mansion. Your son and daughter-in-law are filial, and your granddaughter is so cute and sensible.ā One of Song Canās friends said enviously.
āLucky how? You donāt know the pain and suffering in my heart. Today is such a happy day, so I shall not talk about those unpleasant things.ā Song Can sighed and said helplessly.
Her friend also guessed what she meant. She could see how Song Canās daughter-in-law was gentle, demure, and had a good temper. It was clear from the way she spoke to her child. Despite Song Canās reluctance to air her dirty laundry in public, her close friends knew about her troubles.
āChildren will eventually grow up and have their own lives. Let the bird fly from the nest. Donāt 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 havenāt met my daughter-in-law, whoās nothing but a lazy bum. You should be content.ā Her friend said.
āSheās just spending my sonās money to please me.ā 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.
āItās the thought that counts.ā Song Canās friend felt that Song Can didnāt realize how lucky she was.
She liked Song Canās daughter-in-law the moment she saw her.
