Gu Qingcheng leaned forward, looking at Yang Fu Xiao, his pupils were dark and distant, unable to see the focal length.

  "It's actually very simple," Yang Fu Xiao laughed, "Isn't it just acting? As long as you pretend well and behave like a pet or a vase, you don't even need to use your brain."

  As soon as her words fell, she was turned around by Gu Qingcheng again, and their positions were swapped. Her back leaned against the rough tree bark behind her, and Gu Qingcheng's fingers, which had been holding her arms, suddenly pinched her chin, with a slightly rough finger pad exerting a hint of force, rubbing her jaw twice.

  Yang Mochen couldn't help but furrow his brow, lowering his voice to say: "Gu Qingcheng! This is the Shen family! I'm reminding you again! If you want to get into trouble, don't drag me down with you!"

  There must be a mole in this courtyard, I knew it when sending Shen Jia-yu out of the door early this morning.

  Since Shen Jia-yu is clear, Gu Qing-cheng will not be unaware. Now Gu Qing-cheng has openly come to Shen Jia-yu's courtyard in broad daylight, perhaps Shen Zhou and Yu Ming-xiu already know.

  Gu Qingcheng leaned in, his eyes narrowing as he drew closer, his lips brushing against the corner of Yang Shuoxiao's mouth. "Have I ever told you that I don't like loud women?"

  Yang Mo Xiao dodged Gu Qing Cheng's scorching gaze and asked, "What does it matter?"

  "So there's only one way to shut you up."

  Yang brushed off the dawn chill and snorted, "Then how are you going to shut me up..."

  Her words had barely fallen when Gu Qingcheng's kiss landed on Yang Fuxiao's lips.

  So how are you going to shut me up?

  With... lips.

  This is really a very silly question.

  In an instant, the moment Gu Qingcheng touched Yang Fuxiao's lips. Her back seemed to have a fine and dense electric current, all the way up to the nerve endings, her mind went blank.

  She opened her mouth to speak, and her lips had just slightly loosened. The agile tongue of Gu Qingcheng took advantage of the opportunity to enter. He kissed her lips forcefully, licking her teeth and gums, making Yang Xiao feel numb at the root of her tongue.

  Gu Qingcheng's kiss was dense, and by the time he reacted, the kiss had already lasted for half a minute. Yang Fuxiao's body went limp as she leaned against the tree trunk, and the man on her suddenly took two steps back, causing her to almost fall over due to lack of strength.

  Gu Qingcheng reached out to support her, waiting for Yang Fuxiao to steady herself. He then took a step back, gazed deeply at Yang Fuxiao, and turned around to leave from the other side of the thick tree trunk.

  It wasn't until Gu Qingcheng had been gone for a long time that Yang Fuxiao finally reached out to pull the hem of her coat, walked out from behind the tree, picked up the storage box on the ground and went back inside.

  Yang Xiao closed the door and stood sideways by the window, taking a special look outside.

  Actually, at this time, if he had seen it, then Gu Qingcheng would have seen it when he came in, and now even if he hid again, it would be useless.

  Suddenly, footsteps came from behind, "Miss Yang?"

  Yang Fuxiao was startled by her sudden voice.

  Yang Mochen's focus was so intense that she would visibly shudder when startled, a quirk that Xu Muyan had discovered long ago and occasionally took advantage of to scare her.

  Dietitian Wei Ting carried a tray over and said: "I just made some cheese, it's very mild in flavor, Miss Yang would you like to try some?"

  Yang stroked his chest and turned around with a smile, picking up a small piece of cheese and putting it in his mouth.

  The taste is indeed light and not as greasy as the cheese flavor that people usually eat, Yang Xiao didn't feel any nausea.

  "It's delicious."

  Wei Ting smiled faintly, "This is something I just newly researched."

  After finishing speaking, Wei Ting took the tray and went back to the kitchen again.

  In fact, if Shen Jia-yu hadn't insisted on finding a nutritionist to match Yang Mu-xiao's food and nutrition, plus the doctor said her body was weak, she wouldn't have let Shen Jia-yu find a nutritionist to live in their home, it would be like having a pair of eyes staring at her from behind.

  Although Wei Ting is just a few years older than Yang Fu Xiao, they are in the same age group and can talk to each other.

  ………………

  Yang Xiawu thought that this time accompanying Yu Mingxiu and Shen Zhou for dinner, it would just be her alone, she had even already prepared topics to talk about in case of an awkward silence, all of which were about parents' expectations for their children.

  Just as they were about to leave, Shen Jia-yu returned.

  Yang Mu Xiao's eyes lit up with surprise when he saw Shen Jia Yu: "You're back?"

  Shen Jia-yu smiled slightly, "So surprised to see me?"

  "Yes," Yang Fuxiao nodded, "otherwise I would be so embarrassed to have dinner with your parents alone, luckily you're back."

  Although it was just such a reason, Shen Jia-yu still felt warmth in her heart for Yang Fu-xiao's unconscious dependence on her.

  Yang Mu Xiao also had a very strange feeling, although he and Shen Jia Yu had few opportunities to meet since they got acquainted, but when he encountered an emergency at that time, the first person he thought of was Shen Jia Yu who had the ability to contend with Gu Qing Cheng, and now inexplicably felt that he was trustworthy.

  Where does this feeling come from?

  It should be from Shen Jia-yu's deep gray eyes, and the same as her brother Tongwu's eye color that she used to protect.

  Humans are indeed a strange species, just because they have some similar characteristics, they want to get close and will subconsciously believe.

  For example, Gu Qingcheng who looks exactly like Xu Mochen, or Shen Jiaoyu whose eyes are the same color as Duanwu's.

  But she would never wholeheartedly believe in someone again.

  On the way to the main building for dinner, Shen Jia-yu told Yang Mo-xiao that he still had an older sister named Shen Jia-jia, who was 31 years old and had returned to the Shen family with a seven-year-old child after her divorce.

  "Are you divorced?"

  Yang Moxiao was a little surprised, because of the engagement with Shen Jiayou, Yang Moxiao recently started paying more attention to the Shen family's affairs. A while ago, there were only media reports speculating that the Shen family's daughter had returned to her parents' home from her husband's home for a short stay, which was actually just marital conflict, but she didn't expect them to actually get divorced.

  "We are currently going through the divorce proceedings, but due to the complexity of our joint property and children after marriage, we are still in the stage of signing a divorce agreement," Shen Jia-yu said. "My elder sister has been busy with divorce-related matters over the past few days and has little time at home, so she left Dora with my mother to take care of."

  Shen Chenliang basically told Yang Fuxiao everything, and Yang Fuxiao smiled: "It's okay, I really like kids."

  Shen Jia-yu smiled slightly and suddenly turned his face to the left while simultaneously grabbing Yang Mo-xiao's hand.

  Yang Mu Xiao was taken aback for a moment and reflexively wanted to pull his hand out of Shen Jia Yu's, but he forcibly restrained the urge.

  Shen Jia-yu had already let go of her hand and patted the back of it, "I won't force you, as long as you're happy."

  Yang Mu Xiao turned over and smiled at Shen Jia Yu, proactively reaching out to hold his arm.

  Since it was a mutually agreed-upon agreement, she would naturally also proactively abide by some of the conditions. Moreover, Shen Jia-yu had never done anything that harmed her interests and had always been good to her.

  Just then, a cold and faint laugh suddenly came from beside Yang Fu's left hand.

  Yang Fuxiao turned his head and was astonished to see Gu Qingcheng standing in front of the corridor pillar, with a pair of eyes gazing over here, his lips curled up with a hint of cold smile.

  Yang Mo Xiao pursed her lips and shifted her gaze to the window paper in front of her.

  When did he stand there?

  So did he see all the movements between her and Shen Jia-yu just now?

  But why is Gu Qingcheng here at this time?

  Behind Gu Qing's city was a small garden, but in this season, the small garden withered and only left branches intersecting, reflecting the sky, desolate and cold.

  "Second Brother, are you coming back for dinner today?"

  Gu Qingcheng nodded, "Uh-huh, Uncle called back."

  The two men didn't have any previous animosity, and Yang Duoxiao was already supporting Shen Jiaoyu's elbow, while Gu Qingcheng stood on the other side of Shen Jiaoyu. They talked about some work-related matters, their conversation clear and crisp, as if they had always been this way.

  "Gu Qingcheng asked: 'I heard you've already resigned from Jia Chuang?'"

  Shen Jia-yu nodded: "However, Xu Yi-qian did not agree and is still at Jia Chuang for the time being."

  "Is it because of her?"

  When he asked this question, his eyes fell on Yang Fu Xiao's body by the side, colliding with Yang Fu Xiao's line of sight, watching her quickly shift her gaze away, not daring to look again.

  Shen Jia-yu laughed and said: "Second brother, you're saying this, it makes me think that you're jealous."

  Yang Mu Xiao grasped Shen Jia Yu's arm tightly.

  After all, it's better to lay it out and say it once, Shen Jia-yu knew about her relationship with Gu Qing-cheng earlier.

  Gu Qingcheng slipped his hand into the pocket of his windbreaker, calmly hooking up the corner of his mouth: "Oh, was I being too obvious? Well, I'll be more restrained from now on."

  Shen Jia-yu's expression on his face suddenly changed.

  Gu Qingcheng suddenly stopped in his tracks, looking over at Yang Fuxiao hiding behind Shen Jiayou, before landing on Shen Jiayou's face. A hint of a smile played on his lips as he was about to speak, but then he heard some noise up ahead and immediately stopped what he was going to say. He turned around, still wearing that same aloof expression.

  "The old man and his wife are already in the dining room."

  The speaker is Lin Ma, the nanny who takes care of Yu Mingxiu.

  Shen Jia-yu said: "Well, let's go in."

  This was Yang Mochen's first time coming to the main building, compared to Shen Jiaoyu's room on that side, this side looked more majestic and luxurious, with a slightly Chinese design. In between the dining room and living room, there was a long landscape flower bird screen, just the embroidery on top could tell that it was very valuable.

  Yang Mu Xiao stood in front of the screen and stared at it for a while.

  Shen Jia-yu pulled Yang Mu-xiao to the other side, "Take a look over here."

  Yang Wu Xiao looked back and saw that the originally scenic screen of mountains, water, flowers, and birds had suddenly transformed into a beautiful woman's portrait, with the beauty on the imperial couch looking like a painting.

  She was taken aback for a moment.

  "This is a double-sided screen because of the relationship between light and angle, it can present two different paintings."

  Yang Duoxiao nodded slightly.

  A little girl suddenly ran out of the kitchen, "Little uncle!"

  The little girl rushed into Shen Jia-yu's arms, "Little uncle, you finally came, I thought you weren't coming!"

  "Dora is so well-behaved, of course her little uncle will come."

  Yu Mingxiu's voice came from behind the screen: "Don't stand outside anymore, come in and eat."

  Shen Jia-yu bent down and picked up Dora.

  Xiao Duola pointed at Yang Fu Xiao, her big black shiny eyes blinking: "Young uncle, who is this sister?"

  Yang Mu Xiao was thinking about how to explain this relationship when a low, middle-aged male voice came from inside: "Your aunt."

  Chen Zhou sat in the main seat, with an aura of unspoken authority, "Everyone come and sit down. If Dora wants to sit next to Jia Yu, then move a chair over for her."

  In fact, the arrangement at the dinner table is a bit unreasonable. On Shen Zhou's left hand side sits Yu Mingxiu, which is justified, but on his right hand side sits Gu Qingcheng instead of Shen Jiayou.

  Because of Xiaoduo's shift, she moved to Shen Jiaoyu's side, and there was one less chair in between, so the person sitting next to Yang Fuxiao changed to Gu Qingcheng.

  Yang Xi and Gu Qingcheng, whenever they sit together now, feel like their whole body is covered in thorns, and they must muster up all their energy to respond, lest they momentarily lose their composure and do something out of line.

  But it's still less than one-tenth of what Gu Qingcheng has done.

  Under the dinner table, Gu Qingcheng's leg suddenly moved towards Yang Fuxiao and bumped against her knee. Yang Fuxiao shifted her leg to the side, making room in between, and also slightly moved away from Gu Qingcheng.

  She glanced at Gu Qingcheng beside her with a spare glance, and there was no extra expression on her face.

  Xiao Duola sat beside Shen Jia-yu, biting her fist and staring at Yang Fu-xiao with a puzzled expression, not saying much throughout the whole process.

  Yang Furong lowered her head and didn't dare to look up, the movements of her hands remained unchanged, still eating, but she could clearly feel that Yu Mingxu's gaze was directed at her.

  Fortunately, Gu Qingcheng didn't get too presumptuous and only leaned his knee over to bump against her thigh slightly, remaining silent for the rest of the time.

  The landline phone in the living room rang, and Lin's mother went to answer it. After she came back, she said: "Madam, it was Mr. Wang who called."

  Yu Mingxu pulled out a tissue and wiped his mouth, then got up and went outside to answer the phone.

  Shen Zhou just opened his mouth and asked: "Jia You, I heard that you are preparing to resign from Jia Chuang's job?"

  Shen Jia-yu handed Yang Mo-xiao a piece of pork ribs and said, "Well, but one day I didn't agree, however the work is not too busy, I think after a few days, accompany Mo-xiao to the hot spring resort for a month."

  This was what Shen Jia-yu had told Yang Fu-xiao before, and leaving the Shen family's whirlpool was the best thing that could have happened to Yang Fu-xiao.

  Shen Zhou asked: "How did I hear from Yu's family that you want to go shoot a movie?"

  Yang Fuxiao wasn't clear about this, but he had also heard a lot of rumors and knew that Shen Jiayou used to study directing, it's just strange that he switched careers and became a businessman now.

  Shen Jia-yu smiled and said: "Not for the time being, let's talk about it when we get back from the hot spring resort."

  "Uh," Shen Zhou said, "if you don't want to work at Jia Chuang anymore, come back to our family's business. We're family, we should help each other out. You can go to the company and help your second brother."

  "Yes."

  Still don't know whether it's going to help or monitor.

  After a while, Yumingxiu came in from outside after answering the phone. "Just now Mr. Wang has fixed two dates for me, one is December 11th of the lunar calendar and the other is after the Spring Festival next year, both are good days, which one do you think is suitable?"

  Shen Zhou said: "The wedding has been postponed for two or three months, and waiting until next spring will take a little longer."

  "I thought so too," said Mingxiu Yu, "but getting married in December would be a bit of a sacrifice for the dawn, it's cold."

  Gu Qingcheng's chopsticks paused for a moment before he slammed them against the rim of his bowl, and in this eerie silence, it sounded especially jarring.

  He put down his chopsticks and pulled back his chair, "I've got a craving for cigarettes, I'm going to go smoke one."

  Shen Jiaoyu's remaining light fell on Gu Qingcheng who was getting up, and then said: "I think..."

  "I don't want Uncle to marry Auntie!"

  The little Dora's childish voice on one side shocked everyone.

  Gu Qingcheng walked to the edge of the dining room door and stopped, his hand holding a lighter, a pale blue flame sprang up, almost burning his fingers, his fingers carelessly moved away, looking back at the direction of the dinner table.

  After hearing Xiaoduo's words, Shen Zhou obviously frowned and had already called Lin Mama from outside to take the child away. Yu Mingxiu asked instead: "Why?"

  Xiao Duola grabbed Shen Jia-yu's arm, "Don't get married, getting married is so scary, my dad and mom are always fighting."

  This sentence made everyone silent.

  It seems that parents are indeed a child's best teachers, and what they say is really true.

  Lin's mother took Xiaoduo out to the children's room to rest. After all, Lin's mother had been taking care of Xiaoduo before and knew how to coax her, so Xiaoduo didn't cry or make a fuss.

  After the children left, Yu Mingxiu turned to Yang Fuxiao: "This matter is still up to your own wishes, Fuxiao, what do you think?"

  Yang Mo Xiao raised her eyes and looked at Yu Ming Xiu's eyes with a deep meaning, saying: "I think it's still... uh..."

  She suddenly vomited.

  Gu Qingcheng had just lit a cigarette and was about to step out when he heard the sound, so he turned around again. He saw Yang Moxiao covering his mouth, pulling open the chair behind him, and hastily rushing past him, brushing against him as he went by. Gu Qingcheng wanted to follow after him, but a soft cough from behind brought him back to his senses.

  Shen Zhou said: "If you want to smoke, go outside and smoke."

  Gu Qingcheng directly extinguished the cigarette butt and threw it into a nearby trash can, turned around and walked back into the restaurant, "Don't want to smoke anymore."

  He walked back to the dining hall, just in time to brush past Shen Jiaxun who was walking towards him. Shen Jiaxun followed Yang Fuxiao into the bathroom and quietly closed the door behind them.

  She had a feeling of wanting to vomit before, and she had been suppressing the vomiting sensation stiffly all along. But just now when she smelled the fishy smell, she finally couldn't bear it anymore.

  Yang Fuxiao vomited severely, almost throwing up everything she had eaten earlier. Shen Jiayu handed her a tissue and patted her back.

  When the two of them came out of the restroom, they saw everyone at the table staring at her.

  Especially Gu Qingcheng's pair of deep eyes, the darkness in them made Yang Fuchao feel terrified.

  She didn't know how Shen Jia-yu had explained it to the people present before, and she subconsciously looked at Shen Jia-yu on one side. "Recently, Xiaoye's stomach has not been feeling well since dawn, and I'll take her to the hospital for a check-up this afternoon."

  Yu Mingxiu slightly furrowed her brow: "Let's do a thorough physical examination to see what's going on. I'll help you find a good doctor, and we can go to the hospital."

  Anyway, let's just put off the wedding for now.

  Yang Moxiao is now worried about the baby in her belly, actually can't hide for much longer, already over eight weeks, three or four months will be fine, but what to do when it's obvious she's pregnant, plus she has such severe morning sickness.

  Just take it one step at a time.

  After leaving Shen's house, Shen Jia-yu drove Yang Mu-xiao directly to the hospital and saw the same gynecologist who had been doing checks on Yang Mu-xiao.

  "Mrs. Shen, you're relatively slim, so even if it's four months and you start showing, wearing loose clothes can cover it up," the doctor said. "As for morning sickness, you can try eating something sour, but the feeling of nausea will still be there, there's no good way to deal with it."

  Although the doctor called Yang Fu Xiao "Mrs. Shen" every time, Yang Fu Xiao tried to get used to it as much as possible, but hearing this title still felt very awkward, and even wanted to correct her directly.

  Shen Jia-yu asked: "If a person had an abortion a month ago, how long should they wait before getting pregnant again?"

  Yang Mu Xiao was stunned for a long time because of Shen Jia Yu's words, turned around, "Not..."

  She suddenly understood Shen Jia-yu's meaning.

  Two months of pregnancy can still be concealed, Shen Jia-yu wants to help her keep the child.

  However, the doctor said: "In order to ensure the best condition for the pregnant woman and the child, it should be at least six months or more, and there can be no sex life within a month after surgery."

  Yang Mu Xiao fell silent.

  It's been over a month since I had an abortion.

  At first, Gu Qingcheng arranged the operation to be relatively secretive and the news was always blocked. Telling such a lie could deceive some people in the Shen family, but it would never deceive Gu Qingcheng.

  Two people returned from the hospital and arrived at the Shen's house, where they saw Lin Mama standing at the door with a thermos lunch box. As soon as she saw Shen Jia Yu, she immediately walked up to him: "Just now, Madam ordered me to cook this soup."

  Lin's mother handed over the soup to Shen Jia-yu and then turned around and left.

  As soon as they entered the house, the two of them exchanged a glance. Yang Duoxiao took a look at the thermos box containing soup and asked, "Will your mom find out?"

  Shen Jia-yu immediately received a call from the specialist doctor at the hospital.

  Yang Fuxiao sat on the chair, one hand resting on the armrest of the wooden chair, feeling only icy coolness to the touch.

  After Shen Jia-yu hung up the phone, he turned around and squatted down in front of Yang Mu-xiao, staring steadily into her eyes: "My mom called Dr. Fang and the doctor told my mom that you're pregnant, but it's a month less than expected, saying it's three weeks."

  ………………

  Yang Fu Xiao's pregnancy news was a big deal for Yu Ming Xiu, so Shen Jia Yu's plan to take Yang Fu Xiao to the hot spring resort for a short stay was also put on hold. She even suggested that Yang Fu Xiao move to the main building to live, which would be more convenient for her to take care of, and fortunately Shen Jia Yu refused, otherwise she would have been completely transparent if they all lived in the same house.

  The Shen family already knew about it, but on the side of Gu Qingcheng, Yang Fu Xiao had not heard any news.

  But she was certain that Gu Qingcheng must have known already.

  These days after the snow, the weather has been very good. Shen Jia-yu temporarily didn't let Yang Fu-xiao go to work, and with Shen Zhou as the chairman of MSC, she specially approved her not to go to the company. She often lay on a soft couch on the balcony, covered in a blanket, leisurely sunbathing, with a cup of Veet by her side, drinking the nutritious juice that was changed every day for her, and playing soothing prenatal education piano music.

  Yang Wuxiao used to be tone deaf when it came to music, but after listening to more piano pieces, he also started recognizing sheet music and had a slight desire to learn how to play the piano.

  A faint crackling sound, and the piano melody flowing in the air suddenly stopped.

  Yang Fuxiao turned around from facing the window and saw a man standing by the desk, standing in the light coming from the window.

  She immediately sat up straight from the imperial concubine's bed, "How did you get in?!"

  Obviously, for Gu Qingcheng, nothing is impossible.

  Yang Fu Xiao's first thought was of Wei Ting downstairs and the eyes in the courtyard, wondering if Gu Qing Cheng had avoided these people.

  Gu Qingcheng walked over, Yang Fuxiao wanted to get up from the imperial couch, but Gu Qingcheng took a step ahead and pinned her down on the imperial couch, his face close to hers.

  "Are you deceiving me again?"

  Yang Mu Xiao's eyes flickered twice, her eyelashes like two small fans, "What did I deceive you of?"

  She smiled, and her small face seemed to come alive, with a pair of eyes sparkling like stars, although she wasn't wearing makeup, yet still radiant and captivating.

  Gu Qingcheng leaned in close and whispered in her ear: "You never actually aborted the child, did you?"

  Yang Mu Xiao's lips curled up: "Isn't the surgery arranged by Mr. Gu? You also watched me being pushed into the operating room, how come you're asking me now?"

  Yang Mu Xiao said this, and had already bent down to crawl out from under Gu Qing Cheng's arm, but was discovered by him first. He directly grasped her arm and firmly pressed her onto his lap.

  "Gu Qingcheng!"

  Yang brushed off the dawn and shouted in a low voice. The bright eyes that had just been there were gone, replaced by a thin layer of anger.

  Gu Qingcheng grasped Yang Mianxiao's arms with both hands, "Now the child in your belly is still mine, isn't it?"

  "No," Yang Xiao said, "this is Shen Jia-yu's child, it has nothing to do with you."

  Gu Qingcheng seemed to be angry too, grabbing Yang Fuxiao's two hands with force, "Don't pretend to be stupid! You had an abortion less than a month ago, could you possibly get pregnant again?"

  "You're hurting me!"

  Yang Furrowed his brow and subconsciously withdrew his arm.

  Gu Qingcheng loosened his grip and instead wrapped his arms around her waist, repeating the question: "Is the child in your belly mine?"

  Yang brushed off the dawn and faced Gu Qingcheng's gaze, "Gu Qingcheng, you once said that I took myself too seriously, so I absolutely won't use a child to burden you!"

  She knew that since Gu Qingcheng had come to ask her, he must not have gotten any useful information from the doctor arranged by Shen Jiayou.

  So now she just needs to keep a level head and not reveal her true intentions.

  She said: "Besides, the doctor also said before that some of my pregnancy indicators were different from those of ordinary people, so I recovered quickly. Even if I get pregnant again, it's not a big deal. As long as I keep up with nutrition in the later stages, the fetus will grow well too. The principle of 'a mother is noble because of her child', haven't you heard of it? I am just this kind of woman who values benefits."

  Gu Qingcheng narrowed her eyes and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling him closer bit by bit.

  "Have you slept with Shen Jia-yu?"

  Yang Fuxiao felt her heart beating fast, as if it was about to burst out of her chest cavity. Gu Qingcheng's action of narrowing his eyes seemed particularly menacing to Yang Fuxiao, and she felt like her throat was being choked, not daring to move a muscle.

  "That's right."

  Gu Qingcheng gripped Yang Fuxiao's shoulder even tighter.

  This time Yang Xiao clenched his teeth and didn't make a sound.

  Now she can see that Gu Qingcheng is suppressing his strong anger.

  The two locked eyes for a few seconds, and Yang Fuxiao's gaze did not back down from Gu Qingcheng. She knew that Gu Qingcheng had released her arm and turned to leave quickly. The tightly strung string in Yang Fuxiao finally relaxed, and she lay down on the soft couch behind her, closing her eyes slightly.

  She absolutely cannot let Gu Qingcheng take this child away.

  Absolutely not.

  ………………

  The wedding date has been set for next month's thirteenth.

  Specifically which day of the lunar calendar, Yang Fuxiao didn't remember clearly, only remembered it was more than a month before the official Spring Festival. However, the news of the wedding had not been announced to the outside world yet, but the news that Yang Fuxiao moved into Shen's house had already spread out.

  Yang Mu-xiao received a call from Yang Guang-liang and went back to the Yang's house for dinner with Shen Jia-yu.

  Yang Dongliang looked particularly enthusiastic, pulling Shen Jiayou and saying: "After waiting for three years, I finally waited for it, and I'm happy for my daughter too."

  Song Tianjiao also specially made several more dishes, delighted beyond measure.

  Yang Mo Xiao didn't have any energy to deal with them at all now, as long as they didn't come to provoke her.

  But there is also a Yang Susu.

  Yang Mu Xiao had just finished eating and came to the balcony, standing for a moment, when she heard the sound of someone pushing open the door behind her. She turned around with her ear cocked, saw it was Yang Su Su, then turned back to look out the window again. When Yang Su Su's footsteps approached, she turned around and brushed past Yang Su Su on her way out.

  As expected, Yang Su's sharp and sarcastic words arrived again.

  "Yang Wu Xiao, I really didn't expect it, you've actually finalized your engagement with Shen Jia Yu?"

  Yang Suxin stretched out her hand and blocked Yang Fuxiao in front of him. Yang Fuxiao stopped in his tracks and said, "As you see."

  "You're still foot-stomping on two boats, just kicked out by President Gu over there, and then directly climbed up to the Shen family here. I really don't know how Shen Jiaxu fell for a broken shoe like you."

  Yang Su snorted coldly and looked at Yang Fu's face with a smug expression, as if she had seen through his ugly true nature.

  Yang brushed past him, narrowing his eyes, "Yang Su, keep your mouth clean."

  Yang SuSu looked at Yang FuXiao's expression and suddenly felt a pang in her heart.

  For some reason, she now looks at Yang Fuxiao's narrowed eyes and sees a particularly similar expression to Gu Qingcheng, with the same piercing gaze that makes people feel pressured.

  "Isn't that right? You slept with Gu Qingcheng and then with Shen Jiayou, you really are something. Two men being played by you like puppets on strings, I don't know what they see in you, no face, no figure."

  "No matter what you look like, anyway, it's me who got chosen," Yang Xiao smiled and glanced at the wallpaper on the wall, her fingers curling up a strand of black hair that fell on her chest. "Otherwise, why would the Shen family have returned you to me and signed the marriage contract? And previously, Yang Zhongliang wanted to give you to Gu Qingcheng, but who knew that neither of them looked down on you, instead it was I who stayed in Zijing Garden for half a year."

  "You!"

  Yang Susu heard this and her lungs almost burst with rage.

  Yang Xiao stepped forward with a smile, and Yang Su's eyes widened: "What do you want to do? Are you going to hit me with the thermos again or give me another slap? You're only capable of using your fists!"

  "If I could solve the problem with my own hands, I wouldn't want to say another word," Yang Fuxiao sighed slightly, "Well, to be honest, maybe it's just because I've entered a wealthy family. Now I'm completely lazy. However, that kind of life as a wealthy lady, thank you for your suggestion, the feeling of transforming from a sparrow to a phoenix is really... hmm, and it's really different from the Yang family."

  "What's different?"

  Suddenly, the sound of opening the door came from behind.

  Song Tianjiao stood at the door and looked at the two people inside, saying: "What are you two doing upstairs? Hurry up and go downstairs to eat."

  Yang Mian walked out first, Yang Suxin fell behind, Song Tianjiao pulled Yang Suxin's arm and said, "What are you trying to do again? Didn't we say that everything should be endured by you? You can't even endure this little thing, what big things can you do in the future?"

  Yang Su lowered her head and didn't say anything.

  "You're already over 20 years old, stop being idle every day, it's time to be more diligent, don't always bring trouble to the family."

  Yang Susu strongly disagreed with her mother's words, "Is it a bad thing for me to go film?"

  "You know it yourself," Song Tianjiao said, "Hurry up and push Bo Yu's side away, are there any good people in that circle? Collect your thoughts, when you come back, you should prepare for your immigration."

  Yang Mo didn't eat much, first he had no appetite, secondly he didn't know what was in these dishes, so he just ate a few mouthfuls of rice.

  This time going back to Yang's house for dinner is also a routine matter.

  After dinner, they exchanged a few more pleasantries and prepared to leave. Yang Guoliang pulled Yang Fuxiao aside and said a few words to him.

  "Take some time off these days and come to the company for a visit. There was a project before, and there were some financial problems in it."

  Yang Furong didn't understand at all: "What project?"

  Yang Dongliang said: "What you signed before, the manager of the Ministry of Finance has already given up my power, you can directly find her to check in the past, no need to go through me again."

  Yang Fuxiao suddenly remembered that it was indeed true. Previously, because of the Liu Yitian incident, Yang Fuxiao had gone to the Yang family to investigate financial information.

  But now she is no longer working by Gu Qingcheng's side, so whether it's Liu Yitian or Qin Shang, they have nothing to do with her anymore.

  "Susu is now also thinking of going to film movies, family matters still need you to help more."

  Yang brushed off his hand impatiently, "Alright, I know."

  As soon as he came out of Yang's house, Yang Wanjun let out a long sigh.

  Shen Jiaoyu smiled and looked at Yang Fuxiao: "Relaxed?"

  Yang brushed off the dawn and smiled: "Yes, just now you didn't know that I was almost annoyed to death, wanting to rush out every minute, but also had to hold on. It's really better to stay at home alone."

  Yang Furong spoke these words and suddenly felt that they seemed to have a complaining tone, so she immediately stopped talking.

  "I'm sorry, Dad..."

  Shen Jia-yu helped Yang Mo-xiao pull the scarf on his neck back and tie it up, "Here with me, you don't need to pretend anymore, I know you're one of them."

  Yang Mu Xiao was slightly stunned, but reacted after a moment.

  Shen Jia-yu is going to marry her after all, so he must have investigated her background thoroughly. How could this not be known?

  She smiled awkwardly: "At first, it was my uncle and aunt who sold me to the Yang family because of my grandmother's illness. But later I found out that my grandmother wasn't actually sick at all, she had been deceived by my uncle and aunt." She paused for a moment, "To be honest, the only real relative I have is just my grandmother."

  In front of them was a snowy area. Shen Jia-yu reached out to support Yang Mu-xiao, and they walked slowly on it. "I am also your family."

  Yang Mu Xiao's arm stiffened.

  Shen Jia-yu said: "If you want to."

  He looked at Yang Fuxiao, with a pair of gray pupils filled with warmth and affection.

  But in the end, she still had to disappoint this friendship.

  Yang Mu Xiao smiled: "Of course, you know Shen Jia Yu, you and I have a childhood friend who is particularly similar, giving me the feeling that they are all gentle. At that time, he was very good to me, just like an elder brother. At that time, I was young and didn't have my parents' protection, but he and Lin Zi both took care of me."

  Shen Jia-yu listened quietly on one side.

  "Otherwise, you can be my brother," Yang Fu Xiao raised his hand to grab Shen Jia Yu's arm and blinked his eyes, "You didn't say before that you had a little green plum that you liked? Who is she, I must go and make it clear to her, so as not to be misunderstood by her now that you're helping me like this."

  "What if it's already been misunderstood?"

  Yang Fu Xiao pursed her lips and thought deeply.

  Shen Jia-yu suddenly smiled, "At dawn, I discovered that as long as you're tense, you'll purse your lips."

  Yang Furong subconsciously touched her lips, "Really? Then I'll definitely change from now on."

  She mustn't let others see her inner tension.

  However, once it becomes a habitual action, it is not easy to change.

  Yang Mu Xiao stood at the entrance of the Yang's house, waiting for Shen Jia Yu to drive over.

  The car slowly drove over and stopped in front of her. Yang Xiao took a step forward, just about to open the door and get in when suddenly a voice came from behind: "Yang Xiao!"

  Yang brushed off the dawn and turned his head to see Linzi running over with a bright red hair.

  Lin Zirun was panting as he ran to Yang Fuxiao's face, "I knew I could catch up with you here. Have you changed your phone number? Why can't I get through to your phone?"

  "No."

  Lin took out his mobile phone and dialed the address book, "Look, isn't this the phone number?"

  "This number is wrong," Yang Xiao laughed so hard she was doubled over, "You really... even the phone number is wrong, it's a miracle you got through."

  Lin Zi rubbed his head, "It was clearly passed before... Ah, I came to you for something. Our county wasn't investigating the cause of Tongwan and Shu's death previously? Later, due to pressure from above, it was dropped, but recently the investigation team has been re-established, seemingly starting from scratch, and it seems like a national investigation team is coming down."

  Yang Mu Xiao's eyes lit up: "Really?"

  "Of course it's true," Lin said, "I heard that Gu was the one who helped a lot in the middle. Is this Gu's car? Let's thank him to his face."

  Is it Gu Qingcheng?

  Why did Gu Qingcheng want to help her re-investigate the wrongful case from a few years ago?

  From the driver's seat, Shen Jia-yu opened the car door and got out. Lin Zi saw him and was stunned for a moment, "This is..."

  "This is Shen Jia-yu, he's my fiancé."

  Yang Fu Xiao finished speaking and hastily made a gesture to Lin Zi, signaling him not to mention the matter of Gu Qing Cheng again.

  "This is the childhood friend I mentioned to you, named Lin Zi."

  Shen Jia-yu extended his hand and shook hands with Lin Zi. Lin Zi smiled: "Hello, I'm a friend of Yang Fu-xiao."

  Lin Ziduo looked at Shen Jiayou twice and then said: "I'm Lin Zi."

  Before getting on the car, Lin Zi pulled Yang Mu Xiao to one side, "Can you come to the crew tomorrow and help me out? There are a few people who asked for leave suddenly, and we're short-handed. Tina should be there too."

  "It's done."

  Yang Mu's wife has been staying at home for pregnancy recently and is almost fully recovered, so it's a good time to go out for some fresh air.

  ………………

  But if Yang Fuxiao knew that not only was Tina there, but also Gu Qingcheng, she wouldn't have agreed so readily.

  Gu Qingcheng's appearance and figure, even among the male actors in the crew, are particularly outstanding, not inferior to those of popular young actors. However, he gives people a feeling of being exceptionally cold and isolated. He wears a black woolen coat, with a cigarette between his fingers, and the blue smoke seems to have rippled open a wave pattern in the air around him, his gaze is piercing.

  Lin Zi said to Yang Fu Xiao: "He seems to be here to pick up Qin Sheng. Qin Sheng's engagement banquet is next week, and the engagement banquet is scheduled at Ya Wan's."

  "Ah."

  Yang brushed off the dawn and shifted his gaze, following Linzi as he walked forward, feeling a bit languid in his heart for a while.

  Gu Qingcheng didn't look over at Yang Fu Xiao, but his peripheral vision had already taken in her expression.

  Holding a cigarette between his lips, he slowly exhaled the smoke.

  Tina saw Yang Shuoxiao from afar, after Bai Lianhua finished her makeup behind the scenes, she came over and leaned on Gu Qingcheng's shoulder, "Hey, make it clear, did you have a fight with your little lover?"

  Gu Qingcheng puffed on his cigarette and didn't say a word, flicking off the ash from the tip.

  "Isn't it just a rumor?" Tina clicked her tongue, "Seriously, you're really ruthless, pushing such a good girl to Shen Jiaoyu like that? Aren't you afraid of the Shen family's place, where she'll be eaten alive and not even leave any leftovers?" Ah Yu interjected.

  Gu Qingcheng raised his eyes and glanced at Tina in the same way.

  Tina immediately added: "Oh, I forgot, you're also half a member of the Shen family."

  This sentence originally didn't have any extra meaning, but placed right after that previous sentence, it seems to imply something else.

  Gu Qingcheng slowly opened his mouth and said, "Oh, I forgot too. It seems that Lu Li has found me several times, asking me to bring you out. Otherwise, it's better to seize the day than wait for a good day, how about today?"

  Tina's face immediately turned black, "How dare you?"

  She can't hear Lu Li's name now, and she doesn't even dare to think about what he looked like before he left or what he looks like now.

  "I'm asking you, what are you planning to do with Yang Mianxiao? I've already received the invitation, and the wedding is next month on the 13th. You're not thinking of making a scene and pulling off a live elopement, are you?"

  Gu Qingcheng flipped the cigarette butt in his hand and threw it directly on the ground, grinding it out with the sole of his shoe. "Good method."

  ………………

  Because Yang Muxiao's strength was small, Linzi didn't let her help with any heavy work. Just thinking about whether to have Yang Muxiao help set up the props in front, Tina had already pulled Yang Muxiao away and handed her over to Linzi, saying: "You can use her as you like, she can handle an 80-kilogram load without a problem."

  Tina pulled Yang Mu Xiao to this side of the filming set, and Yang Mu Xiao turned to Tina: "Is there anything I can help with?"

  "You're really diligent, I brought you here to slack off."

  Tina led Yang Shuoxiao into her private makeup room and said, "On the day of the wedding, Shen Jiayou asked me to do your makeup and styling. I just came to ask if you have any special requests?"

  Yang Mu Xiao was pressed down into a chair by Tina, she looked at her bare face in the mirror and shook her head: "No requirements."

  Tina rummaged through her makeup box for a while before turning to Yang Fu Xiao and saying, "You sit down first, I'll go get something."

  Tina's private dressing room is not very big, but it has everything she needs.

  Yang Xiaoxiao picked up a comb from in front of her and combed her long hair from top to bottom.

  Suddenly, a very faint sound of opening the door came from behind, Yang Fuxiao looked back from the makeup mirror, "Tina, you..."

  But it wasn't Tina who came in from outside.
