Who has ever seen Marquis Gu act like this? Old Madam Gu said, "Alright, alright, Third Son, Mother will arrange it for you, let Qiujie go find Xiuxiang to make some of your favorite dishes."
Qiujie acknowledged and went out.
Gu Jinghui stubbornly looked at Qin Yuan, tilted his head slightly, and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"
Qin Yuan felt inexplicably guilty and fiddled with her bracelet, softly saying, "I accompanied Mother for a meal."
Gu Jinghui fell silent but still kept his gaze fixed on Qin Yuan.
Old Madam Gu said, "Third Son, Yuan'er came to accompany Mother for a meal after such a long time, and you feel aggrieved? If you come here to bully Yuan'er, you must see if Mother will allow it."
"How dare I bully her? Doesn't she have Mother to protect her? In Mother's eyes, there's only the daughter-in-law; where's my place?"
Gu Jinghui muttered.
There was inexplicable grievance in his voice.
