Gu Cheng looked at Gu Lian ingratiatingly, afraid that this young master would be unhappy and say that he wanted to investigate thoroughly.
In the end, Gu Lian’s expression softened and he reluctantly accepted this explanation. He snorted and changed the topic. “Then continue to investigate. There are so many surveillance cameras, you can always find clues. It’s just that this batch of jade materials is useless. Who made the proposal to gamble on stones? How should this batch of materials be calculated?”
Gu Cheng hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile, “Well, stone gambling was my idea. At that time, my friend said that there was a batch of materials, so 1 took over. How about this? 1’11 pay the money for the materials. After all, it’s my responsibility for not letting the guests have a good experience.”
Gu Lian calculated in his heart. It could be said that Gu Cheng had lost everything this time. It could be considered a punishment.
After all, they still had to live under the same roof in the future. It was not good to cause too much trouble, so he reluctantly agreed and brought Gu Cheng to apologize to the guests who were watching the stone gambling.
Gu Cheng did not dare to refuse and could only follow Gu Lian back to the event location dejectedly. He apologized and said that it was because of his negligence that the stones had been tampered with.
If anyone was dissatisfied with the stone gambling earlier, they could come to him for a refund and compensation.
However, because this stone gambling event was originally set up to embarrass Gu Lian, it had been going on for so long. Only Gu Lian, Mo Yu, and Mo Xue had purchased stones. Gu Cheng had bought two pieces himself.
The surrounding onlookers were satisfied with the show. It was naturally impossible for Mo Yu to return the two top-grade jade stones.
As for Mo Xue, she had long fled with Bai Feng and did not participate in the following farce.
The jewelry exhibition finally ended perfectly under Mo Yu’s satisfied smile and Gu Lian’s usual expressionless face. The only two unhappy people were probably Mo Xue and Gu Cheng.
Mo Yu carried her two pieces of jade and sat in the car home in satisfaction. When Su Mei, Gu Jiu, and Gu Zi finished, they also learned from the other guests about Mo Yu and Gu Lian’s heaven-defying luck. They couldn’t stop smiling.
Su Mei directly gave all the jewelry that Mo Yu had worn at the exhibition to Mo Yu. She even hugged her and kept calling her ‘Darling, Little Lucky Star’, making Gu Lian’s scalp tingle. In the end, Gu Lian pulled his wife away and let the car return to peace.
When Su Mei was pulled away, she was still smiling, but she kept looking at Mo Yu like that. After a while, tears fell.
This jewelry gathering was not only to showcase the Su family’s product design for the past two years, but also a welcome party for Gu Lian when he woke up. In the half a month that she had prepared, she had witnessed Mo Yu’s changes and improvements and knew how much she had suffered.
Now that she saw Mo Yu’s heartless and silly appearance, Su Mei could not control her emotions for a moment and cried.
The other three hurriedly wiped Su Mei’s tears, but Su Mei waved her hand and rejected them.
She held Mo Yu’s hand, her eyes filled with heartache and love. “Xiao Yu, in the past half a month, no, it’s been hard on you since you took care of Xiao Lian. I was really afraid that Xiao Lian would never wake up, or that his brain would be damaged and become… Fortunately, you’ve always done your best to take care of him. Mom saw all of this and remembers it in her heart. Don’t worry, our Gu family will only acknowledge you as our daughter-in-law. We won’t acknowledge Yun Shu and Mo Xue. You and Xiao Lian will live well in the future…”
Perhaps because the pressure during this period of time was too great, Su Mei took the opportunity to vent all of it. It was not until she returned to the main residence that she let Mo Yu go and let her return to her room to rest.
Mo Yu’s fatigue was swept away after washing up. She lay on the soft bed and stared at the ceiling in a daze. Unknowingly, Mo Yu realized that she was used to having Su Mei, Gu Jiu, Gu Lian, and Gu Zi around her.
She was not an emotionless person. Before she transmigrated, she had her own family and friends. However, in the past three years, she had seen too many sorrows, joys, separations, and betrayals. She gradually adapted to being alone. Even until now, Mo Yu had always thought that she did not have any friends or family. It was not until Su Mei’s words at night that her inherent thoughts were broken.
Mo Yu turned over and saw the moon outside the window. Tonight was a full moon. It should be a family reunion. Mo Yu suddenly smiled, then pulled up the blanket and covered her head.
It was great that she had a family here..
