C1916 The Old Residence Knows the News
When we got home, Aunt Liu was waiting at the door.
Seeing that the family of three had returned safe and sound, Aunt Liu let out a long sigh of relief. Tears welled up in her eyes and she almost shed tears.
Aunt Liu put her palms together and closed her eyes. She said softly, "Thank God that the earth and the benevolence are fine..."
Gu Tingshen hugged NianCi while Huo Niannian followed behind him.
When they returned to the familiar environment, NianCi's mood improved greatly.
She finally let go of Gu Tingshen's neck and got off his body.
Huo Niannian's heart completely relaxed.
She turned her head and said, "Aunt Liu, NianCi hasn't had breakfast yet. Is there anything to eat at home?"
"Eh, yes, yes. I don't know when you guys will be back. I have already prepared it early in the morning. I will go and heat it up now."
Aunt Liu went to the kitchen after she finished speaking. She had just walked two steps when she suddenly remembered something and said, "Sir, yesterday night, Old Mansion called. I accidentally leaked the news about Nianci..."
Aunt Liu knew that Gu Tingshen's relationship with Old Mansion was not good, so she had been uneasy since she leaked the information last night.
However, she had taken care of Gu Tingshen for so many years. She knew that he was not the cold-blooded and ruthless character that was rumored to be in the outside world. Therefore, even though she felt uneasy, she was not scared out of her wits.
Sure enough, after hearing Aunt Liu's words, Gu Tingshen did not show too much emotion. He just gave a cold "En" sound and then asked Aunt Liu to prepare breakfast.
On the contrary, Huo Niannian was not as calm as Gu Tingshen. She was worried that the Old Mansion would take the opportunity to cause trouble after learning the news, and it would be detrimental to Gu Tingshen.
After all, not long ago, Gu Tingshen openly seized Gu Zifan's shares. Gu Zifan had been quiet for so long. She did not believe that Gu Zifan had really changed himself. He must have been holding it in.
Huo Niannian looked at Gu Tingshen and found that he was unusually calm. She asked, "Could it be..."
"You don't have to worry." Gu Tingshen interrupted her and had a comforting smile on his face. "I will take care of everything."
So what if Gu Zifan really came here to be a demon? Gu Tingshen sneered in his heart, he was just overestimating himself.
Hearing what he said, Huo Niannian wasn't worried anymore. Speaking of which, she was worrying too much. How could Gu Zifan be a match for Gu Tingshen?
Huo Niannian curled her lips and held NianCi's hand, waving it around to make her happy. Gu Zifan could not even compare to her, let alone Gu Tingshen.
However, what Huo Niannian did not expect was that they did not wait for Gu Zifan and Gu Changqing. Instead, they waited for Old Master Gu.
At noon, Old Master Gu came to the Gu family.
Huo Niannian was shocked, "Grandpa, why are you here?"
"How could I not come and take a look after such a big incident?" Old Master Gu was supported by the housekeeper and walked forward unsteadily.
Yesterday during the day, Old Master Gu felt very anxious and worried that something bad would happen. He told Gu Changqing to call Tingshen, and as expected, he got the news that Nian Ci was drowning.
He was very anxious. That night, he would go to the hospital to visit Nian Ci.
Yin Jie and Gu Changqing were the ones who earnestly advised him to take care of his health. They also said that Nian Ci had already woken up and was definitely not in a big trouble, so he felt at ease.
How could he be at ease? Tingshen was his most beloved grandson, and Nian Ci was Tingshen's most beloved daughter. If something happened to Nian Ci, Tingshen and Niannian would definitely not be able to bear it.
He refused to listen to Gu Changqing's words and insisted on going to the hospital.
Gu Changqing could only take a step back and let him stay at home. He and Yin Jie went to the hospital to visit.
Later, Gu Changqing told him that Nian Ci was fine. He was only frightened and waited for the next day to come and take a look at Tingshen.1
What Old Master Gu did not know was that Gu Changqing and Yin Jie did not go to the hospital to visit Nian Ci. They just called the hospital and asked about Nian Ci's condition. After confirming that Nian Ci was fine, they acted up.
