"Now it seems that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, right?"

【Hahaha~~】

Everyone laughed out loud at the same time.

"Xiaowei, don't deny it. I grew up with this brat, how could I not know his bad temper? Can he get along well with others? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Gu Wenjin took the opportunity to seek revenge and openly belittled his brother.

Gu Wenxu patted Gu Wenrui on the shoulder and said, "Although you are my biological brother, this time, I stand with Jin'er."

Gu Wenjin grumbled in dissatisfaction: "Why are you trying to come up with a transitional phrase? He is your biological brother, and I am still your biological sister!"

Gu Taihe also looked at Gu Wenrui, and said half in a lecturing and half helpless tone: "Wenzheng and Jin'er are right. You are a stinky boy. You can't say more than three sentences to anyone. The second sentence is to make people angry to death."

Old Madam Gu didn't get involved when her grandchildren were fighting, but as soon as Gu Taihe opened his mouth, she immediately became displeased, glared at them, and protected her children.

"You still complain that Xiao Rui didn't talk to you nicely. What right do you have to complain? Why don't you take a look at how you usually talk to Xiao Rui?"

"Don't say that Xiao Rui doesn't want to talk to you properly. I don't want to talk to you even at my age. Not only do I not want to talk, I get annoyed just by looking at you..."

As soon as the old lady said this, Gu Taihe immediately became ashamed: "Mom, the children are here, please give me some face."

Madam Gu curled her lips and said, "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. You don't even give Xiao Rui face, so why should I give you face?"

"Oh, you have a sense of shame, but my precious grandson has no shame..."

Bai Xiaowei watched the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren interacting with each other with a smile, and felt warm in her heart.

The city wall built with a sense of drop became even looser.

Gu Wenrui turned a deaf ear to the bickering and joking of others, and only stared at Bai Xiaowei's bright and pretty face. His voice was low and pleasant, and it made people's heart beat faster: "You also praised me behind my back to my brother and sister-in-law?"

Bai Xiaowei turned away her eyes and said stubbornly, "No."

"Ah!"

Gu Wenrui chuckled, his pair of dark eyes like stars were as bright as reflecting the starry sky.

Although she has seen it many times, Bai Xiaowei just can't take her eyes away, gradually getting intoxicated and getting deeper and deeper...

It was Gu Wenjin who broke the tender affection between the two.

She and Gu Wenrui are only one year apart in age. They have been fighting since childhood and have a deep relationship but they don't get along very well.

So, even though they have grown up now, the way they get along is still the same as when they were children, and they want to fight each other as soon as they meet.

However, most of the time, it was Gu Wenjin who started the trouble first, and Gu Wenrui who fought back later.

"Xiaowei, we all watched your debate. You are amazing. The situation was obviously not favorable for you, but you were able to find such a sharp angle to turn the defeat into victory. And in the free debate, you reacted so quickly!"

Gu Wenjin didn't feel that he had disturbed his brother at all. He caught a glimpse of his ugly face from the corner of his eye and gave him a smug glance. He then pestered Bai Xiaowei with great interest, "How did you do it? Do you have any experience to share with me?"

"Also, what place did you get in this debate?"

Madam Gu coughed and scolded with a stern face: "You keep pestering Xiaowei with endless questions. Are you going to let me eat?"

"Don't you know that Xiaowei can't starve now that she's pregnant?"

Gu Wenjin pouted in grievance, took the serving chopsticks and picked up a piece of fish for Bai Xiaowei through Gu Wenrui: "Xiaowei, try it, this fish is very fresh and nutritious, suitable for you and the baby."

After thanking him, Bai Xiaowei cooperated and picked up the food to take a bite.

It is tender and boneless when eaten. As she chews gently, the delicate texture of the fish seems to dance on her tongue, and every fiber contains the freshness and mellowness of the ocean.

As a cooking enthusiast, Bai Xiaowei's eyes lit up immediately: "Madam, who cooked this fish? Can you teach me?"

Seeing that she liked it, Mrs. Gu was also happy.

She picked up another piece for Bai Xiaowei with a loving look on her face: "If you like to eat it, come home more often. Or, grandma can make the decision and send the cook to your place. There is no need to suffer this hardship."

Bai Xiaowei was touched by these words, but still insisted: "But, I want to learn."

Madam Gu looked at her in surprise: "Can you cook?"

Not only was she surprised, everyone else at the table also looked at Bai Xiaowei in surprise.

It's not surprising to be able to cook.

But the impression Bai Xiaowei gave them was that of a strong woman who was powerful, decisive and resolute.

She can appear in court, in the debate arena, and even at the negotiating table.

Whenever she needs to fight with wits, courage, or verbal sparring, she can always use her intelligence and eloquence to crush the opponent in a cold and noble manner.

However, it is hard to imagine her wearing an apron and cooking like a little woman... That picture always gives a magical feeling of wasting talent and squandering resources.

Bai Xiaowei nodded embarrassedly: "It's okay..."

Gu Wenrui said with a "tsk". "What do you mean it's just okay? It's obviously done very well."

He raised his delicate eyebrows and said, "But, from now on, you can only do it for me."

Bai Xiaowei: "..."

The others rolled their eyes at the same time. This brat was causing trouble for everyone.

Gu Wenxing had just gone out to answer a phone call and sat down at this moment with the phone still in his hand.

Seeing the relaxed atmosphere, she smiled and said, "Xiaowei, the case manager just called and said that we have been assigned a new case. I will go to the case manager to get the file as soon as I get to work tomorrow morning."

Bai Xiaowei glanced at the large wall clock in the living room. The hour hand was already pointing to nine. She couldn't help but sigh, "The case manager is quite dedicated!"

Gu Wenxing shook his head: "Because the case is serious and has a bad social impact, they have to pay attention to it."

"Oh?" Bai Xiaowei straightened her expression, "What case?"

Gu Wenxing said calmly: "It was rape, and it was gang-raped by three people."

Gu Taihe paused what he was doing and looked in astonishment at Gu Wenxing, who said those words without blushing or beating his heart.

Is this still his good daughter?

The rest of the Gu family wasn’t much better.

When will their gentle, quiet, and most protected granddaughter (daughter, sister) be able to say such words openly without batting an eyelid?

Isn't this more magical than seeing Bai Xiaowei wash her hands and make soup?

When talking about work, Bai Xiaowei's reservedness disappeared completely.

She said in a calm and businesslike tone: "I will go to the court tomorrow morning. You and Yi Hong will read the files and go to the detention center for interrogation in the afternoon."

"How do I and Yi Hong divide it?"

"Each of us three will be responsible for one question. I'll ask first, and you and Yi Hong will provide additional information. When you two ask questions later, I'll provide additional information."

"Okay," Gu Wenxing said without objection, but with some concern, "I have only interrogated two rapists. Is there anything I need to pay attention to for a gang rape like this?"

【...】

When could those few words be spoken so casually, as if no one was around?

Jiang Luoqing suffered a greater shock.

She almost didn't recognize her daughter anymore.

She had already put down her cutlery and kept rubbing her eyes with her hands, always thinking it was an illusion.

Is the girl in front of her, who has a sweet look and gentle temperament but calmly says words like rape, gang rape, and rape, really her pampered little princess?

Bai Xiaowei nodded and said, "Gang rape is a more serious crime, with a minimum sentence of more than ten years, and there are more things to pay attention to. However, discussing this issue at the dinner table may affect everyone's appetite."

She looked around at everyone, taking in the expressions on their faces, and smiled: "Let's eat first, and then we can talk somewhere else."

Gu Wenjin couldn't put down his ears, and immediately responded: "Okay, let's eat first, and then we can talk in my room after dinner."

"Also, Xiaowei, you have to teach me how to debate. You don't know, every time I quarrel with someone, I feel that I didn't perform well, and the more I think about it, the angrier I get..."

Gu Wenrui sneered: "Xiaowei is talking to the eldest sister, what does it have to do with you?"

Gu Wenjin retorted: "I'm talking to Xiaowei, what does it have to do with you?"
