Chapter 168 Family Harmony
Not only can they not take revenge, but they also have to worry about being retaliated by Gu Qingluan.
How could Gu Qingluan be so lucky!
The one who made her climb the Isle of No Return!
Gu Jinyue was the most desperate.
She waited so long for this day, thinking that Gu Qingluan could kneel down and beg for mercy, but what she was waiting for was the news that Gu Qingluan had become a saint.
Gu Qingluan must be laughing at her overreaching in her heart, right?
"Congratulations, Qingluan!" Gu Zhicheng suddenly smiled.
Everyone looked at him.
Gu Qingluan touched his arm, goosebumps arose: "In front of me, Patriarch Gu doesn't have to be so hypocritical, this smile makes people panic."
Gu Zhicheng's smile froze suddenly, like the river freezing and the mountain wind suddenly stopping.
His muscles twitched a few times, and he managed to suppress the anger that rose to his throat. His smile faded a little, but his attitude was still enthusiastic: "Luan'er, you've done a good job. Now there are two of us in the Gu family. Holy One, there is no other family in Chengyuan Kingdom that can surpass us! Luaner, you should move back home! The Gu family has double happiness, we must celebrate it!"
She was struck by the name "Luan'er".
"Celebrate it or not, it's up to you, as for moving back home... forget it, I'm used to living in the Junfu."
Gu Zhicheng frowned, then nodded: "You can live wherever you are used to, but remember to come back often."
"I'm afraid some people won't welcome you." Gu Qingluan pointedly glanced at the rest of the Gu family.
Gu Zhicheng heard the words and looked at Wang and the others.
They secretly scolded Gu Qingluan for being vicious in their hearts, but they dared not reveal anything on the surface.
Wang showed a hypocritical smile: "What is Qingluan talking about? You are the daughter of the Gu family, why don't we welcome you back?"
Gu Zhicheng and Gu Jinrong followed suit.
Gu Jinyue and Gu Sier are left with two small cities, which are not enough to save face and please Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan looked at the two of them with a smile.
The eyes are playful, like watching a monkey.
Gu Zhicheng reprimanded immediately: "You two don't hesitate to welcome your eldest sister!"
Gu Jinyue's heart is full of anger.
But who made himself inferior to Gu Qingluan, in front of his uncle who puts the family's interests first, what did his feelings matter?
Gu Jinyue reluctantly said: "Welcome elder sister home."
Gu Si'er was the only one left, who still insisted on living, and said a word of welcome slowly.
"It's so good, the whole family should live in harmony." Gu Zhicheng laughed heartily, as if he didn't notice the undercurrent surging in the hall, he turned his head and looked at Gu Qingluan with loving eyes, "Luaner, how long have you been?" If you haven’t returned home, why don’t you stay here today and catch up with your family members. If you don’t want to move back, don’t move, just come back for a few days, isn’t that a problem?”
"I'm a person who recognizes the bed more. I'm not used to sleeping here. It's more comfortable to go back to my own room." How could Gu Qingluan not know what Gu Zhicheng was thinking, she didn't intend to cooperate.
If not long ago, Gu Zhicheng would have lost his temper after being rejected.
Right now, he didn't blame Gu Qingluan except for sighing with regret.
"So forget it, if you don't stay, it's okay to have a light meal, right?"
Gu Qingluan glanced at the rest of the Gu family.
The faces are getting better and better.
She nodded playfully, and accepted Gu Zhicheng's invitation.
Sure enough, as soon as she agreed, except for Gu Zhicheng, the faces of the others became even uglier.
