“What?!” Bai Jie, Gu Jing, and Gu Xiang exclaimed, shocked.

Bai Jie felt her chest tighten and asked, “You… Are you serious?”

Gu Wan angrily nodded. “I had to ask around a lot of people to find him! I gave the bartender a large sum of money before he told me that that man had broken up with Gu Fei and was ignoring him. That’s why Gu Fei’s drowning his sorrows in alcohol!”

“T-Then, what’s up with that woman who said she was with him for five years?” Gu Xiang suddenly asked. “If Gu Fei is gay, then doesn’t that mean that woman is lying?”

Bai Jie glared at her. “I’d rather that girl was telling the truth!” The Gu family’s ancestors would turn in their graves if their sole heir was gay.

Gu Rou had also rushed back and informed them, “I’ve got her sequestered away in my villa and have someone watching over her.”

“Did you ask her exactly what is going on?” Bai Jie anxiously questioned.

Gu Rou’s expression darkened, and she replied, “She said she’s two months pregnant. I’ve already contacted a reliable doctor to do a checkup on her. We’ll have to wait for the results.”

Gu Jing was stunned. “How is that possible? What’s going on?”

Bai Jie walked up to her son and viciously slapped him. “You idiot! Look at the trouble you’ve caused! How am I supposed to live with this? Do you want me to die? Is that it? You’re doing all this to force me to death?!”

She felt extremely aggrieved. She may appear glamorous to everyone else after marrying into the Gu family, but only she knew what kind of life she was leading behind the scenes. Not only did she feel suffocated by all the infighting between her and her various sisters-in-law, but the pressure of trying to birth a son after having four daughters in a row still haunted her dreams, enough that she was often woken up by nightmares.

Her only son had finally allowed her and her daughters to hold their heads high. She didn’t expect him to cause such a huge mess. ‘How am I going to explain this to my husband? she inwardly panicked.

Her four daughters also panicked. “What’s going on? One of you said he’s gay, and the other said a woman’s two months pregnant with his child! This—this…”

“What about the Shi family? What are we going to tell them?”

Gu Wan and Gu Xiang were perplexed; Gu Jing and Gu Rou were also dumbfounded. All the while, Gu Fei lay on the sofa, snoring away under the watchful eyes of his four sisters. He was completely unworried; even if the sky was falling, it had nothing to do with him. His parents and sisters would help him deal with everything!

“Mom,” Gu Ling quietly informed Chang Hui, “Gu Rou brought Du Juan to her villa. She’s pregnant with Gu Fei’s child.”

Chang Hui was delighted at the news. “She’s pregnant?! Good job! I’d like to see how Bai Jie will exonerate her son’s actions this time! Let’s see what the Shi family will say after this gets out! I’d like to see how she plans to ally with the Shi family now! It’s not fair that she gets all the good things in life. So what if she’s the madam in charge of the main family? I’m also the matriarch of our branch of the family! Hmph! I hate her condescending and arrogant attitude the most!”

“Mom,” Gu Ling counseled, “you’ve seen what happened to Gu Fei; you really should discipline Gu He, or else he might end up in the same situation!”

Chang Hui dismissed her daughter’s words. “Gu He is still young. Let him have his fun. It’s not too late to discipline him later!”

Gu Ling sighed. Her mother only saw the shortcomings of others and was blind to her own; there was nothing she could do about it.

“What do you think Bai Jie will do next?” Chang Hui elatedly inquired.

“Mom, you should be more cautious of Aunt Bai Jie. She’s not a simple woman!” Gu Ling had to remind her mother once again.

“I know! So what? It doesn’t matter how capable she is; her son is a disappointment, and that’s enough to destroy her. Hmph! Let’s see how she deals with her son’s mess this time,” Chang Hui crowed.

Gu Bei looked at Yun Nan and Shi Nian and said tenderly, “Our family has arranged a gathering. I heard that they invited many friends and family from Rong City. As family elders, we should go and show our support. You two should come with us; I want to introduce you to everyone. Our poor Xiao He is gone, but we still have our granddaughter!”

Chen Yao shielded her face with her hands and told the young couple, “If he had his way, your grandfather would keep you by his side constantly and take you everywhere he goes. He can’t wait to show you two off. He wants to announce the fact that he has a granddaughter and grandson-in-law to the world!”

Gu Bei laughed. “You say that like you don’t want the same thing! You also can’t wait to keep Yun Nan by your side every day! ” The old couple lightheartedly continued to expose each other’s shortcomings, making Yun Nan and Shi Nian laugh.

On the day that Gu Bei was discharged from the hospital, Gu Bei and Chen Yao had a happy gathering with the Shi family’s elders at the Shi family’s home. All of them were straightforward and easy to get along with, and their relationship with Yun Nan only brought them closer.

The Shi family treated Gu Bei and Chen Yao as Yun Nan’s real family. Everyone tacitly viewed the two elders separately from the other Gu family members.

Shi Nian looked at Yun Nan and mentioned, “Let’s go out together and look for a dress to wear to the ceremony.”

Yun Nan held Chen Yao’s hand when she heard this and said, “I want to wear a matching dress with Grandma.”

Chen Yao laughed heartily. “I’m afraid I’m much too old for that. If we wear matching dresses, everyone would laugh and say that I’m ridiculous..”
