On the way back, Nian Wanru couldn't help but poke at her earrings. When Gu Yanzhi saw it, he only smiled and didn't say anything.

Gu Qingyao could not help but ridicule: "Daddy is so nice to Mommy. He is practically bullying a bachelor dog like me."

"You …" Nian Wanru patted Gu Qingyao's head and smiled as she looked at Gu Yanzhi: "It's been so many years since you bought me a present, right? "Thank you, I really like it."

Her gaze was extremely serious, but it caused Gu Yanzhi to be startled as well. He opened his mouth and said a little uncomfortably: "Nothing."

However, Gu Qingyao had an indescribable feeling of unpleasantness.

She accompanied Nian Wanru for a bit to chat, and very quickly, they reached home. Gu Qingyao hurriedly went up the stairs and closed the door, then looked at Xiao Ze: "Do you have any more information on Ling Xiaoman?"

"Yes, right here." Xiao Ze said as he took out that piece of information and passed it to Gu Qingyao. He didn't understand why Gu Qingyao came back in a hurry and didn't even change nor rest for a bit, just wanted to see this anxiously.

Gu Qingyao flipped open one of the pages, and using her finger to lightly draw on it, her expression immediately turned cold: "Ling Xiaoman's favorite gem is ruby … …"

"Young mistress is saying …" Xiao Ze's face was filled with astonishment.

After today's incident, the comments online were overwhelming. There was almost no need to look at it. They were definitely filled with envy, envy for the ten years of the Gu family's relationship.

Gu Yanzhi immediately bid the price of the ruby and swan's earrings for his wife. This was truly a good story.

But if there was someone else who liked the ruby, Gu Qingyao closed her eyes and said softly: "I hope that I'm overthinking it."

"Miss might have overthought things." As Xiao Ze spoke, he thought of Gu Yanzhi who was absent-mindedly sending messages on the carriage.

"Tomorrow, help me send someone to keep an eye on Ling Xiaoman's movements. I want to know where she lives." Gu Qingyao said.

"Yes."

"Just tell me how much extra money you need from me." Gu Qingyao said as she opened up a foreign fund. She had to get more funds as soon as possible, and with the time difference of these few years, she could do too many things.

However, Xiao Ze was slightly startled, and said: "Mr. Li said, you can have Mr. Li's own men, there's no need for additional assistance."

Glimmers danced in Gu Qingyao's eyes as she nodded in agreement.

She needed a strong helping hand. Even if she wasn't clear about Li Muyan's goal, she knew that when Li Muyan looked at her, his eyes were very gentle. He was willing to help her, that was enough.

"That's right," Gu Qingyao suddenly said when she thought of this. "Don't tell this to Mother beforehand, do you understand?"

"Yes..."

"Don't tell me what?" Outside, Nian Wanru's gentle voice sounded: "Qingyao, do you have your own secrets now?"

Gu Qingyao's body trembled, but she quickly switched screens: "Mom."

"What's wrong?" Nian Wanru could not help but laugh: "Why aren't you changing? Like this outfit? "

"Yeah, I like it." Gu Qingyao laughed as she invited Nian Wanru in.

Nian Wanru hesitated for a moment but she didn't know what was going on with her today. She actually wanted to talk about emotional matters with her daughter.

She made up her mind and said, "Qingyao, are you free to listen to what your mother has to say?"

"Of course, mother, please speak."

"Your father hasn't given me anything in many years, especially something so precious. It's one thing for me to buy it myself, but it's quite another for your father to give it to me personally, not to mention in front of so many people …" The more Nian Wanru said, the lower her head: "Mother is really happy, your father has changed a lot these few days."

Gu Qingyao's heart trembled.

These few days …

Thinking about it, they had even gotten into an argument that day. Then, in his previous life, had Nian Wanru also gone against her father in order to protect the battered her?

Such a gentle mother, and during that period of time, he and his father almost completely shivered.

She still remembered the fury of Gu Yanzhi in her previous life. She was helplessly crying and she was firmly blocked behind Nian Wanru, so all the curses she made were no longer ear-piercing.

Because he had a mother.

After that, Gu Yanzhi slowly put this matter aside. She was still favoured, but she herself continued to fall even more.

But when he thought about it carefully, it seemed as though he had never paid much attention to her in his previous life.

In the end, was it too late to turn back?

Gu Qingyao hoped that she was overthinking things, but she could only continue to listen seriously.

"Isn't a few days your grandpa's birthday? "It was this Sunday that Mom originally prepared a set of calligraphy and paintings, but now that I think about it, shouldn't I still do something …" Nian Wanru hesitated for a moment, then pulled Gu Qingyao's hand: "Do you want to persuade me to have Li Muyan come over this weekend?"

"I might not be able to persuade you." Gu Qingyao truthfully said: "Actually, when I heard that Mr. Li was my Uncle Xiao, I was also very surprised, because all these years, I have never seen Mr. Li in the Gu family."

"That year … sighed: "I've only heard a little about Li Muyan, after all, your grandfather has never allowed us to talk too much about him. But after all these years, the Li Clan, which he grew up in, has become more and more related to the Gu Clan, and your grandfather has only talked about it a few times. "

"Then does grandfather really want Mr. Li to go to the banquet?" Gu Qingyao asked.

"I think so. Your father mentioned it several times, but your grandfather never said it was impossible." Nian Wanru said: "It's really not easy for you to persuade her. Li Muyan's character … "Sigh."

Gu Qingyao thought about it seriously, thinking that there was nothing bad about Li Muyan's character.

However, such words could not be said in front of Nian Wanru. She could only pat the back of Nian Wanru's hand and said: "If Mother wishes for me to go and try, then I'll ask around and take a look, but I can only try my best."

"As long as you can understand mother's painstaking efforts." Nian Wanru laughed bitterly and stood up: "Alright, then mother will go back first. You should get rid of your makeup early."

"Alright." Gu Qingyao smiled sweetly, "Mom is the same as well."

Nian Wanru's heart felt warm as she nodded and agreed.

Gu Qingyao subconsciously asked: "Oh right, daddy …"

"Oh, your dad went out. He's been really busy lately. He just came back and didn't sit down for long. He called me." Nian Wanru said naturally, clearly not suspecting anything.

She subconsciously touched her earrings and said with a smile, "Alright, Qing Yao, don't wait for father. If there's anything, we can talk to him about it tomorrow. You should rest early."

After left, Gu Qingyao said in a deep voice: "I thought of it, I still need some tracking devices, can this be done?"

Xiao Ze's expression froze.
