The Three-and-a-Half Years Old Baby is Pampered by Eight Uncles!

Chapter 16

Apologizing to Each Other

“Have you never eaten cake before?” Gu Zi asked. “Don’t your Mom and Dad buy cake for you?” Gu Zi did not know Yunbao’s past, but she knew that it was normal to eat cake on her birthday. Why did this newcomer act as if she had never eaten cake before?

However, at the mention of her mother, Yunbao’s expression immediately changed. Her face was filled with grievance. “Yunbao doesn’t have a mother!” She shouted. This was the first time she had vented her emotions. She couldn’t control herself and started crying.

Gu Zi did not expect the newcomer to have such a big reaction. She vaguely felt that she had done something wrong, but she could not bring herself to say it.

She saw Gu Lin’s blaming gaze and saw that her family, who usually doted on her, had gone to comfort the newcomer. She began to feel wronged for no reason and tears fell.

“What are you crying for! You have no manners at all. Quickly apologize to your sister!” Gu Lin said sternly.

“I don’t want to! I didn’t know! You’re all biased towards her!” Gu Zi protested loudly. Her hands and feet danced wildly, scattering the soup on the plate and shattering the bowl on the table.

How annoying. Gu Ming looked at the two people crying at the dining table and felt a headache. He took the opportunity to nod at Old Master Gu to indicate that he was full before turning around and returning to his room.

Ye Yan was also a little angry. She did not know why Gu Lin was always so fierce to his child.

“Zizi is your child. How can you side with someone else’s child? Is there a father like you?!” She stood up and criticized Gu Lin.

Gu Lin tugged at his tie in frustration. He was so angry that he could not breathe. The children stopped crying and just stared blankly at the two adults who were arguing.

“I’m sorry, Eldest Uncle. It’s my fault. Yunbao shouldn’t have lost her temper. Don’t quarrel with Eldest Aunt,” Yunbao said carefully. Her voice wasn’t loud, but it was especially obvious in the quiet living room.

“Sister, I’m sorry. Yunbao shouldn’t have made you cry.” The girl was very familiar with apologizing. Gu Zi didn’t understand why this newcomer wanted to apologize to her. She blushed and forgot to cry.

“…It’s okay, I forgive you,” Gu Zi said softly, feeling a little awkward.

After a while, just as Yunbao was about to go back, Gu Zi seemed to have made up her mind. “Newcomer, I… I’m also in the wrong,” she said softly.

“Children’s matters should be settled by children themselves.” Old Master Gu looked at the two little girls approvingly. “Why should adults get involved?” He glanced at Ye Yan meaningfully.

“Dad, don’t go overboard! I know you’ve never liked me and I don’t care, but please don’t implicate Zizi. She’s also your granddaughter!” Ye Yan acted as if the entire family was bullying her.

However, everyone knew how Ye Yan usually educated her children. Gu Zi was pampered by her until she was lawless. She even felt that she had been wronged. The reason why Gu Zi became so arrogant now was all because of the philosophy she usually instilled in her children.

“Everyone, be quiet!” Old Madam Gu said, ending this farce. She did not expect the meal to be so vexing. She turned around and let the maid push her back to her room.

Dinner ended on bad terms.

“Grandma, I’m sorry for making you unhappy.” Yunbao stood upright beside Old Madam Gu’s wheelchair and lowered her head obediently. She looked very familiar with admitting her mistake.

“This has nothing to do with you.” Old Madam Gu patted Yunbao, wanting her to relax. “Tomorrow, get your Little Uncle to bring you to order some dresses. You can wear them during the birthday banquet.”

“Thank you, Grandma!”

Old Madam Gu gestured for her to leave.

“Gu Lin, you have to have a good talk with your daughter.” Old Master Gu lectured from the side. “Although she’s still young, but some habits will ruin the child’s life if she doesn’t change.”

“Got it, Father.”

“By the way, tell Gu Peng to bring some dresses for Zizi tomorrow as well.”

“Okay.”

Gu Lin left the study and turned to the door of Gu Zi’s room. The little girl was still lying in her mother’s arms and acting cute.

Ye Yan was a little happy to see Gu Lin.
