That her precious child that she had raised for 20 years was switched at birth.

And that Gu Jiangxin had sent their real child away just a few days after they had found her.

They were too far in distance that it was already too late to put a stop to it by the time they had found out about it.

And they definitely did not dare tell Old Mr. Zhang all the events that took place after that.

Zhang Sheng shook his head. “This is the year that you needed your family the most but your uncles were not there for you neither were any of your brothers. Your days must have been tough.

“Nothing we can say or do now to change that. Part of the reason that I want to meet you today is also to let you know that the Zhang family will always be there for you. At least now you know that you have a second home.

“As for your mother… I am going to bring her with us to the capital. I don’t think she will be returning here before I die.”

Gu Shishi was taken aback a little.

The fruit juice that was sucked half way up the straw went back into the glass.

Mother Gu was leaving?

Zhang Sheng felt that the pancake today was cold and hard and not delicious at all.

Frowning, he tossed down the fork.

“Uncle wanted to ask your forgiveness for your mother before he leaves but now I am too shameful to ask that.

His niece looked like she had a nice personality and temperament but none of those had anything to do with his little sister.

She had never raised her for a day or taught her for a day.

And they now expect her to take care of her in her golden years just because she was her birth mother?

Zhang Sheng smiled bitterly. b

He couldn’t even convince himself of that at the end of the day.

He was a business man who had travelled the world. He might seemed personable but, if any one dare try to take away what was his or take advantage of him, he would not have a moment of hesitation before he faceslap such a shameless person!

And his little sister raised only one daughter, Gu Wushuang, and she had failed to do a good job at it.

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

It was now time for her to reap what she had sowed.

He couldn’t possibly expect Gu Shishi, who has never had her as a mother, to be familial to her.

“Uncle had nothing else to say. Shishi, do you have any other questions for me? About the Zhang family? About us?”

Now that Zhang Sheng had given up on his initial intention, he experienced what it was like to be an uncle for the first time.

“What could she possibly want to know about an old man like you?”

Chen Yunping took his cellphone away.

“Go make yourself scarce!”

“Shishi, when you visit the capital next time, I will introduce you to some of your [male] cousins. You will have more in common with them. My son is good at nothing except getting into trouble but he knew all the fun places. I’ll have him be your guide when you come visit.

“Oh yeah, add Shishi to our family group chat and have those rug rats send her red envelopes!”

Zhang Sheng nodded immediately.

Gu Shishi shook her hands, “No, there’s no need for that.”

They barely knew each other.

“It’s fine. Your sorry excuse of a mother is not in the group.”

Zhang Sheng gestured at her.

“Collect some red envelopes. Girls should always have their own private stash.”

Gu Shishi, “… …”

“Young Master Huo, please take care of our Shishi. Next time, if you two need anything, just let us know.”

Chen Yunping looked over at Huo Sishen.

Huo Sishen looked cold. He was never one to be friendly toward someone he wasn’t familiar with.

He merely nodded reluctantly.

Chen Yunping did not push the issue.

“We should head out then. Shishi, when you have a child, let your uncle know. He will order a gold locket for you.”

“That goes without saying,” said Zhang Sheng right away.


But he was reluctant to take off right away.

Even though with the convenience of transportation today, they could meet up whenever.

Problem was that Gu Shishi probably didn’t want to have too much to do with them.

There were neither hatred nor affection among family.

Aye.

Zhang Sheng had always been a decisive person.

Now that he had it all figured out, he stopped being hesitant.

He pulled out a card from his pocket and, taking the opportunity when Huo Sishen got up to answer a call, pushed the card in front of Gu Shishi.

“The code is your birthday.

“Don’t turn it down. Your uncle doesn’t have much other than money.

“It’s important for a girl to have dowry. It gives you confidence in front of your husband. Should you get into a fight in the future and you want to get out of there, you can go anywhere you want with money.”

Worried that Gu Shishi would turn down his gift to her, Zhang Sheng quickly took off with Chen Yunping.

Gu Shishi was stupefied again.

She had wanted to turn it down but the word dowry made her stopped midway through her action.

Her master said he was preparing a dowry for her as well. It was a large-scale scenery painting with portraits, flowers and birds.

It spanned 12 meters in length.

He only had 8 meters of it done by the time he passed away.

That was his biggest regret.

With that memory and sadness coming back to her, she missed a beat in turning him down.

She was not able to hand the card back.

She sighed.

When Huo Sishen returned, he raised his brows and said, “Dowry?”

This man was always astute in his observation.

Even though he had stepped away, he could still fill in what had happened while he was gone.

Gu Shishi nodded. “Yeah, I’ll find a way to repay them.”

Huo Sishen did not comment on that.

As the two walked down the stairs holding hands, he helped her out nonetheless.

“There are plenty of women in the Zhang family.

“Have Liu Zhichao sent some new products over.”

“Oh?! That’s a good idea!”

With Double-12 coming up, she had been worrying that they would not be able to sell much!

Huo Sishen’s lips curved upward.

Squeezing her hand a little, Huo Sishen said, “Let Liu Zhichao worry about that. Let’s go home.”

“Alright~”
