He took care of them more for Old Chen, but he would not be fully responsible for them.
They have their own lives, and so did he.
It was affectionate to care about Old Chen, but he didn't owe them anything. There was no reason for him to be relied on for doing good things, and it would actually affect his own life.
"Yes." Gu Licheng said without hesitation.
Cheng Guixiu and Yang Ruixue never expected that he would admit so ruthlessly.
Originally, Yang Ruixue just wanted to retreat in order to advance!
"I take good care of you because of Old Chen. But let me ask you, I haven't met you many times in these years. In order to avoid suspicion, I always keep a distance. Such a relationship is definitely not enough for you to greet each other like this. You just came to my door without saying a word and even cooked these dishes for me. To be honest, I don't deserve or need you to do so much."
He finally got home from get off work and just wanted to be with his family as soon as possible.
Who would have thought that the steaming hot dishes would be available, but they would be cooked by someone else.
Until now, his family has not even had a bite to eat.
That's all for adults. The little guy was so young and hungry too.
Wasn't this looking for trouble?
Cheng Guixiu trembled, lowered her head and said in despair: "I didn't expect that our good intentions would actually be trouble in your eyes. It's because we are too sentimental."
Gu Nian rolled her eyes without concealing it. The mother and daughter in front of her looked like a pair of white lotus flowers.
"Uncle Gu, we didn't expect it to be like this. Mom also wanted to thank you because she had no one to rely on after dad passed away, and you helped us so much."
"Are you thanking him, or do you have other ideas?" Gu Nian said coldly. Thinking that the little guy was still there, she stuffed the little guy into Chu Zhaoyang's arms, "You should take Little Millet Cake back to the bedroom first. I have something to say. He can't hear these."
There was a reason to send Chu Zhaoyang away together, so that Yang Ruixue would not be able to control her eyes.
"I can't understand it anyway." The little guy protested.
Gu Nian was the only one who didn't allow the little guy to resist, so she let Chu Zhaoyang take him away.
Then she coldly said to Yang Ruixue: "You have lost your support, so you want to rely on my father? You are enjoying his care and enjoying it. Are you not willing to accept it and think about becoming a family with him so you can enjoy it more?"
"We didn't mean it, how could you say that?" Yang Ruixue looked at Gu Licheng pitifully, hoping that he would reprimand Gu Nian.
"This is what I see. If you think what I said is wrong, then just keep your distance from my father in the future to prove it." Gu Nian said slowly, "Also, you said that it is particularly difficult for you to have no support. But at least these years, my dad has secretly taken care of you and helped you."
"However, my mother has not heard from my father at all in these years. She does not rely on anyone, but relies on herself to raise me. Since you know how difficult it is, you can understand my mother's difficulties. But who is she? She don't rely on him, she have never thought about remarrying, and she have never looked for another man to rely on."
Seeing Gu Nian's sarcastic smile, Cheng Guixiu felt her face hurt from being hit.
"Now that she has finally reunited with him, do you still want to fight?" Gu Nian said bluntly.
"We don't mean that..." Cheng Guixiu said slowly.
"If not the best." Gu Nian pointed to the door, "Please. I'm sorry we can't entertain you today. Our family has to celebrate. If you are free tomorrow, say hello in advance. My mother and I must be well prepared at home and hospitable to guests."
Cheng Guixiu and Yang Ruixue were almost driven out in despair.
Until the door closed, Gu Nian's face still looked bad.
"Dad, for this matter, even if you blame me for not giving them face, I will still do it again. If this happens again in the future, I will be even more rude. You should take good care of your colleagues because of their sacrifice. I understand, but understanding is one thing, and I will never tolerate them."
"There is no need to tolerate it." Gu Licheng said, "I don't have much contact with them, and I didn't know that they had such thoughts unknowingly. Anyway, Yang Ruixue is older now, and she is also capable of taking care of her mother. What do they need me to do? I will not contact them again in the future."
"Lanshu, you believe me." Gu Licheng looked at Mu Lanshu, who was still angry.
"Tell me honestly, have you had anything with her over the years? Even if it's not substantial, can it be hinted at? Otherwise, how could she be so pretentious?"
"Really not, she is the kind of weak and unreliable. Even if it's not me, she will rely on others. Now that her thoughts are exposed, it's just right. I won't pay attention to her anymore." Gu Licheng said, "When Old Chen entrusted me with all his wealth, I took the risk and handed it over to them in Old Chen's name. I didn't show up myself."
Gu Licheng sighed: "It's not that I didn't want to contact you and help you financially at the beginning. But I know your temper. You wouldn't want it in the name of others, and you wouldn't want it in my own name. I was also afraid that I would expose you, so I never dared to contact you."
Mu Lanshu spat: "Who told you this?"
Gu Licheng held Mu Lanshu's hand: "I assure you, I have nothing to do with the mother and daughter in the past, present, and future."
Mu Lanshu's anger was relieved a little, and she glanced at the food on the table: "I smell the smell, and the craftsmanship is good. Do you want to eat this tonight?"
Gu Licheng shook his head hurriedly: "Didn't you agree that you would make it for me?"
"Don't waste too much of people's thoughts." Mu Lanshu said with a half-smile.
Gu Licheng then smiled at his nanny "You haven't eaten yet, take these home and eat them."
How could the nanny dare to refuse? She quickly went to get the crisper box and packed it, saying, "Sir, I will never make the same mistake as today in the future, and I will never ask them in again."
