Bai Zhang tilted his head and introduced them to Gu Yin. “These are your cousins Bai Yan and Bai Feichi.”
Gu Yin greeted them politely. “Hello, cousins.”
The two smiled at Gu Yin.
Bai Zhang took Gu Yin to Old Master Bai. “Dad, I bumped into Gu Yin at the entrance.”
Old Master Bai looked Gu Yin over. He gave off the aura of someone who had held high ranking positions for many years in the past. One look from him could make anyone feel anxious.
Gu Yin pinched her fingers. “Grandpa.”
Old Master Bai did not acknowledge her words. He only asked, “Why didn’t you come with Gu Mang?”
Bai Zhang answered for Gu Yin.
“Gu Mang and Lu Chengzhou should be coming soon.”
Old Master Bai looked at Gu Yin. “Did Gu Mang ask you to come on your own?”
Every single sentence that he spoke involved Gu Mang. Gu Yin clenched her fists.
Why does everyone want Gu Mang? Why am I considered the inferior one! Mom and Dad are so biased! This is the Bai family of Jijing Island! Even the families in the capital are incomparable.
If it weren’t for Old Master Bai’s presence, Gu Mang would not have managed to make Leng Xuan apologize. Why do Gu Mang and the Bai family acknowledge each other but not me?!
She suppressed her indignation.
Gu Yin said cautiously, “My sister didn’t ask me to come. When I was speaking to a friend from Capital University’s team this afternoon, she told me about it. I wanted to come here to make things clear about my parents.”
Old Master Bai still had a warm smile on his face. “Why didn’t you ask Gu Mang first and come here on your own?”
He threw sentences at Gu Yin that she did not know how to deal with. She had no idea what to say.
Bai Feichi and Bai Yan exchanged glances.
When Grandpa spoke to Gu Mang on the phone in the afternoon, the siblings had been present. He hadn’t been so cold with her like he was towards Gu Yin right now. Also, Gu Yin had come on her own accord.
Their grandpa had clearly invited their cousin Gu Mang over for dinner and yet Gu Yin had not known about it. She even came to the Bai residence because of something some outsider said.
Whatever Bai Feichi and Bai Yan were thinking, Bai Zhang and his wife were too.
Gu Yin’s motive of coming to the Bai residence was completely transparent.
Seeing that Gu Yin could not give him an answer, Old Master Bai smiled. “Your mother is indeed my daughter. As for your father… Do you know about the Gu family?”
Gu Yin knew about the four big families on Jijing Island. She had learned a little about them from Master Bi previously.
But Gu Yin had never heard about the Gu family.
Their family name is Gu…
Old Master Bai turned to Bai Zhang. “Get the chauffeur to send her to the Gu residence.”
Gu Yin had only been there for less than two minutes and she was already going to be sent off. Her expression changed slightly. “Grandpa, I…”
“Visit your paternal grandfather first.” Old Master Bai cut her off and signaled to Bai Zhang with his chin.
…
Gu Yin was led out by Bai Zhang.
She pursed her lips slightly. She hadn’t expected such a thing to happen.
Didn’t Shen Qianzi say that Old Master Bai treated Gu Mang really well? Why does he have such an attitude with me?
Gu Yin looked down and a cold glow filled her eyes.
The two of them walked to the exit and a black luxury car with the Bai family’s flags came in from the main path.
It went past the fountain in front of the house and stopped in front of the main villa.
When Gu Mang got out of the car, she saw Gu Yin standing under the porch. She raised her eyebrows slightly.
Lu Chengzhou went to the trunk of the car and picked up two boxes of gifts, then he walked to Gu Mang’s side.
Elder Bai came out of the passenger seat and said respectfully, “Young Lady, Young Master Lu, please come inside.”
The three went up the steps.
Gu Mang had her black baseball cap on and her face was hidden in shadow so it could not be seen clearly.
The aura that she gave off was particularly eye-catching.
Bai Zhang was almost sure that the woman approaching was Gu Mang. There was a tinge of excitement in his eyes.
Elder Bai was not so respectful to Gu Mang in front of Bai Zhang. He acted quite casually. “Director Bai.”
Bai Zhang nodded but he was still looking at Gu Mang. He said amicably, “You’re here.”
“Uncle.” Gu Mang greeted him politely.
Lu Chengzhou followed suit. “Uncle.”
Bai Zhang was silent for a second. He glanced at Lu Chengzhou then he turned his attention to Gu Mang. “Your Grandpa’s been waiting. Let’s go in.”
Gu Yin watched as Bai Zhang and Elder Bai led Gu Mang and Lu Chengzhou inside.
None of them looked at her even once. They just left her at the entrance.
She dug her nails deep into her palm and stared at Gu Mang’s back. Her pupils shrank.
The Bai family sent a car to pick Gu Mang up and yet Gu Mang did not even tell her anything about it.
What does this mean? Does she not want the Bai family to acknowledge me?
If Shen Qianzi hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have even known about what was happening at the Bai family!
It’s no wonder that Gu Mang had no interest in the medical organization and did not fight for our parents’ inheritance. She must have known very early on that her mother belonged to the Bai family.
The way that the Bai family and the Lei family treated Gu Mang and Gu Yin were complete opposite.
Such a difference distorted Gu Yin’s mentality.
Just then, the chauffeur from the Bai family said, “Second Miss Gu, I’ll send you to the Gu family’s residence.”
His voice snapped Gu Yin back to reality.
She looked away and forced a smile saying softly, “Thank you, I’m sorry to trouble you.”
The chauffeur answered respectfully, “You’re being too polite.”
Before they left, Gu Yin glanced at the main villa. Her eyes were cold and sinister.
