Translator: Henyee Translations      Editor: Henyee Translations

This birthday banquet was held in a manor. This place was not open to the public or rented by the government. Only the Gu family could make the government agree to hold a banquet here.

This was because Old Master Gu wanted everyone to know that Gu Teng had returned. Invitations were sent out without charge, and there were more than a thousand guests.

Xiao Shan walked through the crowd with a wine glass in his hand and looked at the guests who had come. There were high-ranking officials from the military district’s commander government, and the other two families had also sent people to participate Compared to these people, the Xiao family was really inferior.

Only then did Xiao Shan truly understand the difference between wealth and power. The Xiao family was only a rich family in S City. Compared to the Gu family, they were far inferior.

The current Xiao family was supported by Xiao Jing, but the resources and connections in his hands did not belong to the Xiao family. Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, they valued Xiao Jing and not the Xiao family, unless the Xiao family could find a powerful in-law.

Thinking of this, Xiao Shan became even more determined to snatch his

daughter-in-law. He could not let Gu Ten marry someone else.

Such a grand banquet could not be lacking in people. Old Master Gu asked all his sons to attend. Eight top-notch handsome men appeared in the banquet hall, blinding everyone.

The eight sons of the Gu family were all capable. No matter which one they took out, they were all dragons and phoenixes among men. Whoever had one child like this would celebrate, but the Gu family had eight.

The Masters and Madams of the upper-class society were extremely envious of the Gu family. It was precisely because the Gu family had such outstanding heirs that they tried their best to curry favor with the Gu family just so that the next generation of the family could be on good terms with the Gu family.

It couldn’t be that there were also discordant voices. Zhou Ling, who had followed her brother to the birthday banquet, said disdainfully, “Gu Teng is just a second time married daughter who ran away with a man back then and is now abandoned with a child. Are all the people chasing after her blind?”

At this moment, her brother, Zhou Yan, was talking to others and did not know that her sister had said such a thing. As for the people around Zhou Ling, they were all shocked. They were surprised that this girl did not want to live anymore.

Not to mention that Gu Teng had only married once, even if she married 80 times, she would still be the eldest daughter of the Gu family. She would not lose her inheritance rights like the daughters of other families.

Gu Teng still held the shares of the Gu family and the large sum of money her brothers gave her every year. It could be seen how important Gu Teng’s position in the Gu family was.

Zhou Ling actually said such a thing at Gu Teng’s birthday banquet. If the Gu family heard it, they would definitely not let it go.

Zhou Ling saw that the people around her were silent and thought that her words had frightened them. Only she dared to speak the truth.

Little did she know that the others wanted to leave her as soon as possible, afraid that they would be dragged along by the Gu family.

Yunbao and Gu Zi were playing in the banquet hall. As they knew that these were the two young ladies of the Gu family, the adults coaxed them amiably. The two of them were drinking fruit juice and eating cake. They were simply going crazy.

When Yunbao heard her mother’s name from someone else, she walked over and said, “Do you know my mother? Why did you say that my mother is a second time married woman?”

Zhou Ling looked at the little girl in front of her who was not even four years old. She was wearing an expensive gown, and the bow on her bun was a top-notch luxury item. She had just seen it at the news conference some time ago. Even for rich people like them, it was considered expensive.

At the thought of a bastard dressed more elegantly than her, Zhou Ling’s heart began to ache. She looked at Yunbao in disdain and said, “Because your mother shamelessly ran away with a wild man. After bringing you back, she still wants to find a man. Of course, she’s a shameless second time married woman.”

Yunbao could not tolerate anyone scolding her mother. In her opinion, her mother was the gentlest person in the world. She raised her head and said,

“Stop talking. My mother is clearly with my father. They were married long ago!”

At such a young age, Yunbao did not understand those scolding words. She just wanted to prove that her mother was not a second-married woman because the woman in front of her used this word to insult her mother. When Gu Yu heard the sound, he walked over and said, “What happened?”

Gu Yun hurriedly ran to Second Uncle’s side and recounted what had happened.

Gu Yu looked at the person in front of him coldly. Zhou Ling became nervous from being stared at. Gu Lin appeared in the magazines the most in the Gu family. Even Gu Sen rarely appeared in the entertainment industry because he was a voice actor.

Gu Yu had just returned to the Corporation not long ago, so Zhou Ling did not know him.. However, when she saw his handsome face turn red involuntarily, she thought to herself, Could it be that this person has fallen for me?
