As expected, Mr. Gu didn't say anything, he just snorted in dissatisfaction and continued to coax Xiao Shen and Xiao Yu'er to play with him in a gentle voice.

Tang Xiaoci couldn't sit still and asked Second Master Gu: "Second Master, can I visit your manor with my brother?"

The second grandfather's manor was so big. It had a different layout and scenery from their family's manor. He wanted to run around and take a look.

"Our good boy is so polite, but he said the wrong thing!" Gu Erye rubbed Tang Xiaoci's little head, "Second Grandpa's manor is our Xiaoci's manor. Xiaoci can do whatever he wants in his own manor.

How can we play, how can we call it a visit?"

"Oh," Tang Xiaoci nodded obediently, "Okay, Second Grandpa's home is Xiaoci's home, and Xiaoci's home is also Second Grandpa's home!"

"Baby, you're right!" Mr. Gu laughed heartily, "Our little brother is very clever, tens of thousands of times better than that idiot like you, Uncle Zeqiu!"

Tang Yexi: "..."

She especially wanted to hold her forehead and say a long "Alas".

However, as a niece-in-law, it would be too rude to do this in front of my uncle-in-law.

She had no choice but to endure it.

In the yard, Gu Shimu walked very slowly, and Gu Zeqiu followed him, half a step behind him.

Gu Shimu didn't look at him and said directly: "Tell me, what's going on?"

Gu Zeqiu looked at Gu Shimu in surprise: "Brother Mu... I thought you already knew."

"I do know something," Gu Shimu said, "Your assistant asked me for help and told me everything he knew.

What about what I don’t know?

For example, if you are not a saint, why would you take the initiative to send someone to your door and have them slap you in the face again and again?"

"..." Gu Zeqiu lowered his head and was silent for a while before saying, "There is no special reason, it's just...it's just that Li Mo is my best friend..."

Gu Shimu stopped, looked at him and said, "Do you think it was your fault that Li Yao fell down the stairs?"

Gu Zeqiu was silent for a while, then shook his head and said, "No."

He doesn't like Li Yao, and he doesn't think it's wrong to reject Li Yao's pursuit, nor does he think it's his fault that Li Yao accidentally fell down the stairs and fell into a coma while chasing him.

But......

He said in a low voice: "After all, it was all because of me..."

"So?" Gu Shimu asked him, "Do you think Li Mo was not wrong when he slapped you over and over again?"

Gu Zeqiu looked down at the ground: "He just feels so sorry for Li Yao. Li Yao is his only sister..."

"You are still my second uncle's only son!" Gu Shimu said calmly, "Zeqiu, you have to know whose child you feel sorry for, and whoever dares to slap my son, I will fight him to the death.

My second uncle just locked you up and didn't let you go find him for a beating. He was already afraid that it would be difficult for you, so he showed mercy."

"I know," Gu Zeqiu looked up at him, "I know, Brother Mu, I know my father locked me up because he felt sorry for me.

I......"

"Second uncle said that if Xu Forsythia can cure Li Yao, you will break off relations with Li Mo," Gu Shimu asked him, "Can you do it?"

Gu Zeqiu hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Yes."

Gu Shimu looked at him calmly: "You are willing to do it, isn't it because of your second uncle's order?"

Gu Zeqiu's Adam's apple slid, and after a moment, he nodded: "Yes."

Gu Shimu shook his head: "You did it against your will and had to obey the second uncle's order. If the second uncle hadn't ordered you, no matter whether Li Yao woke up or not, you would not have broken off the relationship with Li Mo, right?"

Gu Zeqiu looked at Gu Shimu helplessly and smiled bitterly: "Brother Mu, I don't have many friends, Li Mo is my best friend..."

He didn't answer whether Gu Shimu was right, but the meaning of his answer made his thoughts very clear... If Mr. Gu hadn't forced him, no matter whether Li Yao woke up or not, he would have

I will not break up with Li Mo.
