Mr. Gu, my wife has blocked you.

Han Ruoxing gritted her teeth, "It doesn't count! What happened just now must have been an accident. Come on! Whoever gets them to move first this time will not have to pay for Gu Jingyang's engagement banquet."

Gu Jingyan raised the corners of his lips, confident, "Come on, who goes first?"

"Me!" Han Ruoxing said, putting down the strawberry plate, sitting upright, clearing her throat, and speaking, "My dears, I'm your mother. Do you want to hear your mother tell you a story?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his belly moved, not as violently as when Gu Jingyan spoke just now, as if hesitant, not light or heavy, but enough to make Han Ruoxing excited, "Look! Look!"

Gu Jingyan's confidence was gone, and he said with a dark face, "You are talking to them using my voice? Aren't you cheating?"

Yes, Han Ruoxing cleared her throat and spoke, and the voice that came out was Gu Jingyan's.

Han Ruoxing blinked. "How can this be considered cheating? You didn't say I had to use my own voice. I'm just making good use of my own advantages."

Gu Jingyan was dissatisfied, "You are taking advantage of the situation!"

Han Ruoxing said, "I won."

Gu Jingyan, "You are stealing the fruits of my labor."

Han Ruoxing, "I won."

Gu Jingyan gritted his teeth, "You also deceived their feelings and made them feel the evil of human nature before they were born!"

Han Ruoxing, "I won."

Gu Jingyan was still resisting, "I haven't shouted yet! I didn't lose!"

Han Ruoxing raised the corners of her lips, "Boss Gu, you didn't hear the rules of the game clearly, right? I said, whoever shouts first wins. I've already shouted, does it matter if you shouted or not? Anyway, you won't be the first."

Gu Jingyan...

The corner of his mouth twitched, "Are you playing a word trap on me?"

Han Ruoxing narrowed her eyes and said, "The rules were explained before the game. You just didn't listen carefully."

Gu Jingyan has a strong desire to win when it comes to being a parent. He gritted his teeth and said, "When playing games, there is no one round to decide the winner. It's best of three. Just now, one person won once and it was a tie. In the next round, you can only use your own voice. Whoever shouts first wins!"

Han Ruoxing's eyes flickered, and she suddenly said, "If you don't want to pay for your sister's engagement, then I'll pay. Why are you being so serious?"

"This is not a question of whether or not to spend money—" This is related to the results of his prenatal education during this period!

Before Gu Jingyan finished speaking, he saw Gu Jingyang.

The latter was wearing a formal dress, and her smile disappeared immediately. She snorted, "Grandma will pay, who wants you to pay!"

Gu Jingyan? ? ?

He came to his senses and looked at the pregnant woman who was fanning the flames. The pregnant woman shrugged innocently and said, "Still competing?"

Gu Jingyan laughed angrily.

Two days ago, Han Ruoxing suddenly had a nightmare in the middle of the night and woke up crying. After waking up, she found that he was not lying next to her, but someone was in the study. She asked him tearfully if she became ugly after she became pregnant, so he despised her and couldn't continue acting, so she went to the study to sleep in the middle of the night?

She cried so sadly. Gu Jingyan explained for a long time that it was because he had just received a job and it was too late when he finished it. He was afraid that the noise he made when he returned to the room would wake her up, so he slept in the study.

He talked to her repeatedly for a long time before he coaxed her into submission, and she stayed clinging to him for the rest of the night.

Gu Jingyan felt both distressed and sweet. Although Mrs. Gu's emotions during pregnancy came and went quickly, he was really happy every time she stuck to him.

The early childhood education teacher said that pregnant women are affected by hormones and sometimes feel particularly insecure. They will lose their temper or become pessimistic and desperate over a small matter, but they are often only directed at the people they care about.

Gu Jingyan didn’t remember the temper he had, but he remembered the people he cared about.

So he felt sweet for a while because of this "person he cared about", but it turned out that she really depended on him when she cried, and she really teased him when she was in a good mood.

He really doesn't worry about Mrs. Gu getting depressed during pregnancy now, because she will find fun in others, and her general principle is to never waste time on internal conflicts.

Gu Jingyang walked up to the two of them holding up her skirt and asked, "How about this set?"

Gu Jingyan took a look and saw that the skirt was very long, so he said, "It's quite environmentally friendly."

Gu Yangyang didn't understand.

Gu Jingyan said, "When the skirt is down, drag the stage along with it."

Gu Jingyang...

"You know shit!" Han Ruoxing slapped Gu Jingyan away and said politely, "It's pretty, but it's not suitable for an engagement party. An engagement party is mainly for friends. You and Lin Shu need to go down the stage to toast and thank them. Your skirt is too long and it won't be convenient for you to move around."

Gu Jingyang suddenly felt that she was out of her mind to think that Han Ruoxing was not worthy of his brother. She should be grateful that Han Ruoxing had done justice and accepted his brother. Otherwise, with his bad mouth, there would be no way he could find a wife!

"Then should I wear something shorter?" Gu Jingyang directly ignored Gu Jingyan and asked Han Ruoxing's opinion.

"It doesn't have to be too short, just above the knee. The style doesn't have to be complicated, but it should be elegant and convenient for movement. The main colors are white, beige, and red."

Gu Jingyang picked out a few dresses from the ones sent by the old lady, and tried on several sets back and forth. In the end, Han Ruoxing and Gu Jingyan unanimously decided on the off-white one.

In Gu Jingyan's words, "As long as you don't speak, you still look like a lady from a noble family."

After hearing this, Gu Jingyang didn't want to listen to Gu Jingyan anymore.

After a while, Lin Shu came.

Hearing the engine sound, Gu Jingyang ran to open the door without Gu Jingyan's command.

Gu Jingyan said to Han Ruoxing unhappily, "She wasn't even this enthusiastic when I came home to open the door!"

Han Ruoxing glanced at him and said, "You went home without your key and had to ask someone to open the door for you. Are you so proud?"

Gu Jingyan...

Lin Shu was really good at dealing with things. He came over late at night and brought some barbecue skewers. He even took care of everyone's taste.

Han Ruoxing noticed that when Lin Shu was talking to Gu Jingyan, he seemed to be focused, but the skewers he handed to Gu Jingyan had the tips cut off.

According to custom, the engagement banquet was held at the bride's home. The old lady had already checked with Lin Shu's mother about the people invited by the Lin family. Gu Jingyan was mainly checking the friends that Lin Shu was going to have.

Lin Shu is very popular and many of his friends are coming to his engagement party. Moreover, he is engaged to the daughter of the Gu family. Just by hearing this news, old classmates who have not been in touch for thousands of years began to contact him frequently, and some even enthusiastically asked about the location of the engagement party and took the initiative to express their desire to attend.

Including all the other things, there would probably be five or six tables. Gu Jingyan reserved eight tables for him in case too many people came and there weren't enough seats.

The details of the engagement party were discussed for a long time, and they had basically thought of everything they could think of. However, when it came to the toast, Gu Jingyang suddenly asked, "Brother, should we ask mom to come?"

After saying this, everyone fell silent.

It would be inappropriate for Zhong Meilan not to be present at Gu Jingyang's major life event, but her presence would be too inconvenient, so from the time the engagement was agreed until now, everyone tacitly agreed not to mention this person, but not mentioning her does not mean that she does not exist.

In fact, Zhong Meilan had been contacting her not long after the news of Gu Jingyang's engagement was released.

Gu Jingyang took the call once, and Zhong Meilan kept saying "self-degradation" and "useless thing".

She believed that Han Ruoxing was behind this, deliberately letting Gu Jingyang marry, in order to bring her to the Gu family so that she could take over the Gu family's property in the future. She kept belittling Lin Shu, calling her stupid, and said that she had been introduced to a young master from a certain family who was much better than Lin Shu...

Gu Jingyang hung up halfway through the conversation.

She didn't like to hear Zhong Meilan belittle Lin Shu. She used to look down on others like Zhong Meilan, but after learning from the grassroots, she truly realized how difficult it was for an ordinary person to reach Lin Shu's current position.

Apart from family background, how many children from aristocratic families in the circle can have the tenacity and character of Lin Shu? Starting from a high point is not impressive, starting from a low point and climbing high is a skill.

She felt that Lin Shu was no worse than anyone else, but Zhong Meilan probably wanted to scold her after hearing that. She didn't really want her to attend her engagement party, as she was afraid that Zhong Meilan would embarrass Lin Shu regardless of the occasion.
