When Zhuang Nainai saw this Weibo post, she was utterly speechless and suffocated. She stood up suddenly.
Si Zhengting asked, “Where are you going?”
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes narrowed as she said, “It is indeed unfilial of me not to go home and visit my parents during the Chinese New Year after I got married.”
After saying this, she supported her bump with one hand while looking at Si Zhengting. “Let’s go. We’ll visit the Gu family to see what exactly they are up to!”
Si Zhengting knew that there was no use in stopping her.
She had been suppressing her ill feelings toward the Gu family for a long time. It was only for the best if she could vent out her feelings regarding this matter.
Hence, Si Zhengting held her as they headed downstairs. Si Zhengting drove the car personally. Just like that, the two of them visited the Gu family empty-handed.
When the car entered the front gate of the Gu family residence, they noticed that the place was rather untidy.
It seemed like it had been days since the courtyard had been cleaned. After the car was parked, no one was out to welcome them either.
The Chinese New Year couplet pasted near the front gate had been whisked to a corner by the wind, but no one bothered to tidy it.
It can’t be that these people cannot even carry on with their lives after the housekeepers had gone home for the Chinese New Year, can it?
Zhuang Nainai sighed and got off the car after Si Zhengting had parked it properly.
Si Zhengting had not left her side for a single second. The two of them entered the house.
There was no one in the living room.
There were leftovers on the dining table. In the kitchen, dishes had piled up in the sink and no one had cleaned them yet.
Shells of melon seeds were scattered everywhere. The carpet was so dirty that Zhuang Nainai couldn’t even find a spot for her foot to land.
Frowning, she walked past the ambiguous objects on the floor and followed Si Zhengting upstairs.
Although she had stayed in the Gu residence before, she was still not entirely familiar with the place. After hesitating for a moment, Zhuang Nainai walked toward a bedroom and knocked on its door.
The door was opened after a long time. Gu Xingshan appeared in front of them with a mask on her face. When she saw the two of them, her listless face lit up instantly. She removed the face mask immediately and greeted Si Zhengting in a squeamish voice, “Hello, Brother-in-law!”
After saying this, she realized that her clothes were untidy and that her hair was messy. Thus, she stepped back in a hurry. “Bang!”
The room’s door was closed.
Zhuang Nainai: “…!!”
“Brother-in-law, give me a moment. I will be ready in a second!”
Gu Xingshan’s voice could still be heard from inside the room.
So, her Sister is invisible?
Zhuang Nainai turned around and walked to the opposite room and knocked on its door.
Likewise, the door was opened by someone after a long time.
Gu Xinghao’s biological clock had been messed up, so he had been asleep. His hair was in an unruly state. Upon peering into the room… Zhuang Nainai realized that Gu Xinghao’s room was actually cleaner than Gu Xingshan’s.
Upon seeing the two of them, Gu Xinghao rubbed his eyes drowsily before saying, “Why are the two of you here?”
After saying this, he looked at his watch. “It’s only three o’clock! It’s still so early!”
Zhuang Nainai: “…!!”
It’s already 3 o’clock in the afternoon, okay?
She really did not know what to say about the two of them.
Zhuang Nainai glanced toward the sides. She did not see anyone else, so she asked Gu Xinghao, “Where’s Li Yufeng?”
“Who is Li Yufeng?” Gu Xinghao asked this question subconsciously before having a sudden realization. “Oh, you mean our mother? Woman, can’t you be more polite to her?”
“Where is she?” Zhuang Nainai said, interrupting Gu Xinghao’s nagging.
