When Gu Shutong returned home, Jiang Yunting happened to be reading in the living room. When he saw her coming back, he immediately put down the book in his hand, walked over and asked softly: "Are you back? Have you eaten? Do you want me to help you heat some dumplings?"

Gu Shutong originally wanted to go back after eating, but because of what happened just now, he didn't have time to eat, so he was indeed a little hungry. "Then I'll trouble you."

After Jiang Yunting poured a cup of hot tea for Gu Shutong, he went to the kitchen to prepare it.

Gu Shutong was sitting on the sofa drinking hot tea, feeling agitated in her heart. Along the way, she was thinking about when Gu Yi came up with this idea.

From the beginning to the end, she never had any thoughts towards Gu Yi. At most, she treated him like an ordinary friend of the opposite sex.

After thinking for a while, Gu Shutong simply stopped thinking about these useless things. At the same time, Jiang Yunting came out of the kitchen with a bowl of hot dumplings.

Gu Shutong smelled the fragrant dumplings, and immediately moved his index finger, and couldn't wait to eat, "Wow, these dumplings are so fragrant, I'll eat them first."

Jiang Yunting sat aside and watched Gu Shutong eating dumplings quietly, and asked with concern: "Didn't you say you were going to invite someone to dinner tonight? Why did it seem like you didn't eat in the end?"

When Gu Shutong heard this, his hand movements stopped for a moment, and then he said: "I was originally going to have dinner, but the other party didn't come due to something else, so I had no choice but to go home in despair."

In fact, Gu Shutong did not tell Jiang Yunting truthfully that she was going to treat Gu Yi to dinner tonight, but simply mentioned to him that she was going to treat a friend she hadn't seen for a long time to dinner.

Out of trust in Gu Shutong, Jiang Yunting did not ask who the other person was or whether he was a man or a woman.

Just after she finished eating, she asked again: "If there is nothing else tomorrow night, let's go back to Jiang's house. Grandma said that it has been a while since the whole family had a meal together. It happened that some uncles who were far away from abroad also came back. Let me get to know you in advance."

"Okay, then you can pick me up after get off work tomorrow. I'll wait for you at the company." Gu Shutong happily agreed.

The Jiang family manor was brightly lit at night, and some of the uncles who had been living abroad all year round and were in charge of foreign business rarely came back. Most of them came back for Jiang Yunting's upcoming wedding.

Most of the people attending the dinner were core members of the Jiang Group, and among them was Jiang Yunting's uncle. He had been living abroad and was in charge of the Jiang Group's overseas business.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, Jiang Yunting brought Gu Shutong to Jiang's Manor. This time, after having the experience of meeting parents several times before, Gu Shutong was not so nervous.

After the two got off the car, they walked into the living room holding hands.

At this time, the living room was very lively. Several relatives and friends who had not seen each other for a long time were greeting each other. Liu Chengyu was also chatting casually with a woman dressed like a lady.

When Jiang Yunting and Gu Shutong walked in, the two of them instantly became the center of attention.

The lady who was chatting with Liu Chengyu glanced at Gu Shutong, who was being held by Jiang Yunting, and asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, is that Yunting's wife?"

Liu Chengyu smiled and waved Gu Shutong over, and took the initiative to introduce her: "Shu Tong, this is your little aunt, come and say hello."

"Hello, Auntie." Gu Shutong greeted sweetly.

Zhang Qin looked at Gu Shutong carefully and found that she was wearing ordinary clothes, no makeup on her face, and her temperament was not outstanding. The only thing that could be justified was her delicate and pleasant cheeks.

Seeing this, Zhang Qin's eyes flashed with disgust, but she concealed it well and did not let others see it. She nodded coldly and said:

"Are you Gu Shutong? I just heard my sister-in-law keep mentioning you. It seems that she likes you very much. It's no wonder that Yun Ting falls in love with you."

Gu Shutong was confused by Zhang Qin's words. Out of respect for her elders, she just responded with a smile.

Then Zhang Qin didn't want to continue chatting with Gu Shutong, so she just left her alone. Instead, she said to Liu Chengyu: "Sister-in-law, speaking of that, girl Jiang Qing, you may not have seen her for a long time. How about I let her go?" Say hello to you?"

"You don't know, after so many years, this girl Jiang Qing has changed a lot. You will definitely be surprised if you see her!"

However, Liu Chengyu saw Zhang Qin's displeasure with Gu Shutong, and out of defense for Gu Shutong, he directly ignored her proposal, turned around and said to Gu Shutong:

"Shu Tong, come with me to see grandma. Grandma has been waiting for you for a long time, and she was still talking about you just now."

Then the two left together, which embarrassed Zhang Qin who stayed where he was.

With Liu Chengyu's identity and strength in front of him, Zhang Qin naturally did not dare to complain to Liu Chengyu, but Gu Shutong was different.

Before coming back, Zhang Qin had already asked someone to investigate Gu Shutong's origins and found out that she was just an ordinary girl with no background. She really couldn't figure out how Jiang Yunting, the proud son of heaven, could choose her.

Just then, a young girl with yellow hair, fashionable clothes, and exposed belly button came over and said, "Mom, where's Aunt? Where did she go?"

Zhang Qin said angrily: "Don't speak English when you come back to China, speak Chinese!"

Jiang Qing had no choice but to change her words: "Mom? Where's the aunt? I was watching you two chatting just now. Why did she disappear when I put on makeup?"

"You still have the nerve to tell me that it takes so long to put on makeup, and your aunt was kidnapped by that little goblin!"

"Little goblin?" Jiang Qing was puzzled. Then under Zhang Qin's guidance, she saw Liu Chengyu leading Gu Shutong to Mrs. Jiang.

When Mrs. Jiang saw Gu Shutong's arrival, she immediately showed a kind smile, took Gu Shutong's hand, and asked her to sit next to her.

Jiang Qing's eyes narrowed slightly when she saw this scene. You must know that when she went to find her grandma just now, her grandma didn't have such a good expression to show her. She just nodded slightly and said hello.

The extremely enthusiastic look towards Gu Shutong now directly made Jiang Qing feel a lot of dissatisfaction, "How could grandma do this? I want to go find grandma!"

Jiang Qing said that she was going to find Mrs. Jiang.

When Zhang Qin heard this, she immediately held her hand and said, "Xiao Qing, what are you doing? That old woman won't look down upon you now!"

"But, I can't watch my grandma being nice to an outsider but looking cold to me, right?" Jiang Qing said angrily.

In terms of relationship, she knew Mrs. Jiang no earlier than Gu Shutong in front of her. Why was grandma so kind to her, an outsider, but so cold to her granddaughter?

Is it because she is not a biological granddaughter?
