Gu Yundong stumbled and almost fell forward.

Fortunately, Shao Qingyuan was quick-witted and rushed forward to support her.

Gu Yundong looked at him and said softly, “Should I say that we’re lucky or unlucky?”

It was also very coincidental that they had only returned a step earlier than her parents.

Shao Qingyuan laughed. “Let’s go and welcome your parents.”

“Yeah.”

The two of them turned around. Yunshu and Yuanzhi, who had also heard the sound, rushed past them and ran to the door.

When Gu Yundong walked out of the door, she happened to see Yunshu, Yunke, and Yuanzhi hugging each other tightly, as if this was the only way to express their affection for each other.

The children were jumping around, clearly overjoyed.

Even Madam Yang was envious and went forward to hug them.

Gu Yundong almost laughed out loud. She hurriedly shifted her gaze to her father.

Unexpectedly, Gu Dajiang’s face darkened as he looked at her unhappily.

Gu Yundong’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he knew that she had been in the mountains for so many days? No way, didn’t Father just come back?

Gu Yundong coughed lightly and asked softly, “Father, why did you only come back today?”

“You still have the cheek to say that?” Gu Dajiang was also very depressed. He snorted coldly. “Your milk tea shop opened yesterday, but a few days ago, Shuitao came to the prefectural city and said that you had something on and couldn’t come. Eldest Miss Nie asked me to represent you. Otherwise, I would have returned two days ago.”

Gu Dajiang was unhappy. Firstly, he couldn’t come back earlier. He had gone back on his word to his wife and daughter, causing Madam Yang and Keke to lose their spirits.

Secondly, he was a man, and the milk tea shop was specially opened to entertain female customers. Although some men came to celebrate the opening day, most of them gave gifts and left.

He was the only one who stayed there from the beginning to the end. Those women whispered to each other about him in a strange manner.

Gu Dajiang still felt uncomfortable when he thought of that scene. He was a man, and he didn’t know where to look when he was in a place full of women.

Fortunately, Madam Dai saw through his predicament and let him come back first. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.

After listening to the entire process, Gu Yundong could only hold back her laughter and quickly apologize to him. “Father, you’ve worked hard. I know that you did something that you were unhappy about for me. You’re the best father in the world.”

“Hmph.” Although Gu Dajiang glared at her, he enjoyed what she said. He let Gu Yundong help him into the courtyard.

After entering the courtyard and sitting down, Gu Yundong asked about the situation in the prefectural city.

The milk tea was ready. Although Gu Yundong did not attend the opening ceremony, Madam Dai must have known that she had gone deep into the mountains.

She had also told him about her family’s matters, and briefly mentioned entering the deep mountains.

Yunshu, who was at the side, glared at her while remaining silent. He did not say anything about his sister not returning home for more than ten days.

However, when Gu Yundong mentioned the matter of Niu Dan today, the little fellow finally could not take it anymore. He stood up and was about to run towards the Chen family.

It was Gu Dajiang who quickly pulled her back. “The Chen family must be discussing this matter now. Don’t join in the mess. It’s the same if you look for him tomorrow.”

Only then did Yunshu calm down, but he still clenched his small fists and looked angry.

Gu Yundong thought of something else. “Now that Niu Dan can’t go to Wen Mo Hall to study, I don’t know which school he will go to next.”
