Xiao Shan stood outside the door and was furious. He couldn’t wait for the birthday banquet. He had to see Xiao Jing now.
He immediately took out his phone and made a call. Unexpectedly, no one picked up. Xiao Shan hurriedly got someone to go to the various parks to look for them.
At this moment, Xiao Jing was focused on peeling the prawns. Yunbao was eating happily. Gu Teng was a little worried. “Will Uncle Xiao be angry if we do this?”
“If he wants to be angry, so be it.” Xiao Jing did not care about his fathers thoughts at all. “It’s his fault for not coming to propose marriage. I have to anger him.”
Gu Yu’s words were discussed with Xiao Jing. He wanted Xiao Shan to understand how popular Gu Teng was. Only then could Xiao Shan feel a sense of danger.
The daughter-in-law he had painstakingly snatched was naturally a special treasure. In the future, Gu Teng would not be troubled in front of Xiao Shan.
Old Master Xiao walked over with a bucket and said, “Let’s have grilled fish for lunch today.”
Yunbao cheered and rushed over, but her face was splashed by the fish tail. However, she smiled and continued to fish, as if she was not afraid at all.
Gu Zi did not dare to approach. She did not want her dress to get wet. It was Yunbao who grabbed her hand and said, “This fish is slippery. Hurry up and touch it.”
The child was curious. After Gu Zi touched the fish, she began to play with it. The two of them fiddled with the fish and touched it. In the end, the fish couldn’t take it anymore and started splashing in the bucket.
The two little guys were covered in water, and the beautiful little princesses were instantly drenched.
Gu Ming, who was standing at the side watching them play, smiled. He really couldn’t help but want to laugh.
Fortunately, Yunbao only turned around to ask her mother to wipe her face, but Gu Zi let out an earth-shattering sound. She could not accept that she had become like this. Her princess dress was drenched.
When Gu Lin heard his daughter cry, he quickly ran over to comfort her and asked the nanny to change her clothes. However, Gu Zi still couldn’t stop crying. In the end, Old Madam Gu ordered the fish to be sent to the grill. When the fish entered her mouth, Gu Zi finally stopped crying because the grilled fish was too fragrant.
Looking at the children, Gu Teng smiled from the bottom of her heart. This was the life she had always wanted to live. She had thought that there would not be such a day. Who would have thought that she would have a chance to be reborn?
Seeing her so happy, Xiao Jing came over to hug her. The couple snuggled up very intimately. Xiao Jing said, “Time passes so quickly. In the blink of an eye, Yunbao will have grown up.”
“How can it be so soon?” Gu Teng said. “By then, I’ll be an old woman.”
Xiao Jing said dotingly, “Then I’ll be an old man. I’ll hold your hand and travel everywhere. I’ll hand my work to Yunbao.”
“How can you be a father like this?” Gu Teng patted Xiao Jing’s shoulder gently. At this sweet moment, Gu Teng suddenly felt a little dizzy, but she quickly returned to normal. She thought that she had been a little tired recently and did not take it to heart.
Xiao Jing was a little worried. “Should we get a doctor to take a look?”
Gu Teng shook his head. “Everyone has their moments of exhaustion. It’s too troublesome to find a doctor for this. I’ve studied magic for so many years and know my physical condition very well.”
Since Gu Teng had said so, Xiao Jing did not force her. However, what they did not know was that a formation in the forest not far away was slowly being completed.
Mao Feng drew a complicated pattern on the ground, forming a very complicated array. Chen Yue looked at his actions and urged, “When will it be ready?”
Thinking of how Xiao Jing and Gu Teng were interacting just now, Chen Yue wanted to rush up and hit them. She was the one who should be sitting beside Xiao Jing.
It was obvious that Gu Teng was a sickly person who was not in good health. She might not be able to get pregnant in the future. She had only given birth to one daughter and could not inherit the family business. How could such a person become the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family?
Mao Feng placed the last stroke and said, “The array has just been drawn. It will take time for it to come true on Gu Teng. I still need your blood.”
“Why do you want my blood?” Chen Yue asked warily.
Mao Feng explained, “This array requires an obsession. Don’t you want to get Xiao Jing?
Hearing Mao Feng say this, Chen Yue extended her hand. She did want Xiao Jing. As long as Gu Teng disappeared, she would be the most suitable person for Xiao Jing. The Xiao family would definitely mention the marriage again.
At that time, as long as she coaxed Old Master Xiao and made him acknowledge her as his daughter-in-law, even if Xiao Jing did not like her, he would have to accept his fate. Over time, she believed that Xiao Jing would like her..
