Gu Lingling couldn’t help but sigh. She didn’t expect Wang Xintao to be so submissive. Not only did she not gain anything from visiting the Gu Family, but she was also threatened by Wang Meili. From now on, she has to give money to Gu Juan every month to support the pregnancy. She can’t even ask Wang Meili for anything anymore, fearing that Wang Meili might accidentally harm the child. "Don’t sigh," Yang Yunhai comforted, "It won’t be more than a few months." Right now, Wang Meili can only threaten Wang Xintao because of Gu Juan’s baby in her stomach. But what about after the child is born? If Wang Xintao can endure further, that would be surprising. "But... I feel that Wang Meili agreed too easily," Gu Lingling said. Based on her understanding of Wang Meili over two lifetimes, apart from Yao Ruanqian, the person she hates most is Wang Xintao. So, how could she let Wang Xintao get her way? "If you keep sighing, you’ll turn into an old lady," Yang Yunhai rubbed her head. Actually, he wanted to pinch her nose, but endured it. "Don’t worry, I’ll have someone keep an eye on this," Yang Yunhai said with a smile. "Thanks, Brother Yang." For some reason, hearing Yang Yunhai’s words made Gu Lingling feel at ease. "How should you thank me?" Yang Yunhai suddenly asked. Gu Lingling was left speechless. "Haha..." Yang Yunhai found himself laughing more and more these days. The little girl’s silly and dazed look was truly adorable. If he wasn’t afraid of scaring her, he would have pinched her cheek right then. Gu Lingling genuinely didn’t expect Yang Yunhai to ask for a token of thanks at that moment, so she was taken aback. But seeing him laugh so happily made her realize she had been teased. "Make me a delicious meal, how about that?" Yang Yunhai stopped laughing and said. He hadn’t eaten a meal made by the little girl in a long time, and he missed it dearly. "Sure." This was something she was good at, Gu Lingling nodded and agreed without hesitation, "Brother Yang, if you’re free, I’ll invite you to my home for a meal." She didn’t want to cook at Yang Yunhai’s place. The door across was occupied by Liu Xiaoqin and Jiang Hong, which she found quite annoying just to think about. Going to the Gu Family for a meal was just what Yang Yunhai wanted. He could take the opportunity to make his presence felt. "Let’s make it Saturday then," Yang Yunhai said, "I remember your dad should be at home that day." Otherwise, it would just be him, Gu Lingling, and Old Sir Gu, and Yang Yunhai worried about people gossiping in Nanshui Village, especially since the little girl was still very young. Gu Lingling was puzzled. How did Yang Yunhai know Gu Chunhai would be back on Saturday? Did she mention it without realizing?

Meanwhile, Wang Xintao, after leaving Wang Meili’s house, turned back to look deeply at the Gu Family’s house and then revealed a strange smile. Inside the house, after settling Gu Juan, Old Mrs. Gu finally asked about Wang Meili’s encounter, "What did your cousin mean by what she said just now?" "Mom," Wang Meili cried before saying anything, "it’s all because I’m a widow now, with no husband." "Even our neighbors gossip about me," Wang Meili cried with such helplessness, "I’m afraid to tell you, fearing you’d get too angry." "But I didn’t expect even my cousin to say such things about me," Wang Meili had an expression of ’grief grows no greater than a heart’s death’, "If it wasn’t for worrying about you and Juanzi, I wouldn’t want to live anymore." "What nonsense you’re talking about, if anyone dares to spread rumors in the future, I won’t forgive her," Old Mrs. Gu said fiercely. And thus, Wang Meili once again fooled Old Mrs. Gu.
