After divorcing the mute girl, President Gu knelt down and begged for reconciliation.

Chapter 130 See the world
She didn't want to respond to this matter anymore.

Gu Xijue stared at her flushed face, his thin lips pressed into a line, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly: "Let's eat."

When it was time for bed, Gu Hetang climbed out of the children's room and pushed open the master bedroom door, which wasn't closed properly. She searched around inside but couldn't find anything. She only saw a light in the bathroom and tried to push the bathroom door, but she couldn't open it.

The doorknob was still too high for her, so she just banged on the door.

A few minutes later, Song Jin'an came out of the bathroom, her whole body red. She carried Gu Hetang to the bed. After a while, Gu Xijue came out of the bathroom with a sullen face, his eyes fixed on Gu Hetang.

The little guy had no idea what was happening and clung to Song Jin'an like a koala, refusing to get down.

Moreover, she really wanted to sleep with her mother. Gu Hetang had become clingy, because Song Jin'an was always at home, and she rarely saw Gu Xijue. Besides, her father had always treated her like she was invisible.

I can't even say I like her; she's just his daughter, his bloodline.

Gu Hetang held Song Jin'an tightly and wouldn't let go. Just as Song Jin'an was about to carry her back to the children's room, she started crying and making a fuss, refusing to go back to sleep. Then, with her short legs, she climbed onto the big bed in the master bedroom, lifted the blanket, and lay down in the middle.

Then those big eyes kept staring at Gu Xijue and Song Jin'an, and she kept giggling.

Song Jin'an gestured.

—Let's sleep together then.

Gu Xijue frowned, his expression changing faster than a book.

Gu Hetang noticed that his father was a little unhappy, so he rolled around and then rolled into his mother's arms.

“She’s already a year and a half old, she can sleep by herself a long time ago. Take her back and then come back.” Gu Xijue’s face was a little serious. Song Jin’an was speechless. Was it really necessary? She was just a little girl who was a year and a half old.

It would be one thing if it were a boy, but it's even worse for a girl to be so strict.

Song Jin'an carried Gu Hetang straight to the children's room, and Gu Xijue's deep voice came from behind: "Come back when you've soothed him."

But he waited and waited, for three hours, and he still hadn't returned.

At night, Song Jin'an felt very heavy, as if something was pressing down on her, and she couldn't breathe for a long time.

A few minutes later, she opened her eyes and saw Gu Xijue, who was carrying her towards the master bedroom.

She did it on purpose, sleeping in the children's room.

As he was thrown onto the master bedroom's king-size bed, meeting those resentful eyes, Gu Xijue's voice was lower and more seductive than ever before: "You think you can just run away after getting into trouble? There's no such thing as a free lunch!"

He was referring to the time in the bathroom.

Song Jin'an was stunned, but the next second her whole body was completely covered up.

She didn't wake up until late the next day, and it was almost noon when she finally did.

Lin Ma had already tidied up Gu Hetang. Song Jin'an was still a bit dazed and confused until she saw Gu Xijue was also there. It took her a while to remember what today meant.

We're going to visit the old family home again, taking the kids to see Grandpa Gu, who has an incredibly long lifespan.

Since Madam Gu was so angry last time, she has not allowed Song Jin'an to appear in front of her for more than half a month.

Song Jin'an was naturally happy to be at ease, and simply had the driver pick up Gu Hetang and bring him back.

Moreover, she didn't want to go back to the old house, because going back meant she would have to suffer, and she didn't want to be a punching bag.

So she didn't want to go today, and gestured for Gu Xijue to take the child back to the old house while she stayed home drawing comics.

When Gu Xijue heard her say this, his expression darkened slightly: "You're complaining about coming back with me?"

He originally had a meeting today, but he specifically canceled it to accompany the mother and daughter back to the old house. "Go pack, we'll go back together."

……

The family of three arrived neatly at the Gu family's old residence. Perhaps because Gu Xijue had also returned, Madam Gu did not give her a second glance or say anything to her this time.

Song Jin'an actually breathed a sigh of relief, now she could have a few hours of peace.

As usual, Gu Hetang was brought to Old Master Gu's bedside. The old man still liked Gu Hetang very much, after all, he was his first great-grandson.

A few minutes later, they started pressuring her to have a baby again. Song Jin'an smiled slightly and did not refute the old man's words, but she did not think so in her heart.

At the dinner table, after everyone had eaten, Song Jin'an fed Gu Hetang, and Gu Donglin, as the patriarch of the Gu family, spoke up.

These words were spoken to Gu Xijue.

"I heard you're going to the school's 200th anniversary celebration?"

As Gu Donglin spoke, he picked up some food and served it to Madam Gu, who was sitting next to him.

“Yes, Father,” Gu Xijue replied.

The next second, he started again: "Are you going to bring her along too?"

This statement is marked with a question mark, indicating that there is some doubt, and it is also intended to change Gu Xijue's mind.

"Yes, take Gu Hetang with us, it'll broaden the children's horizons." The phrase "broaden the horizons" came out of his mouth particularly abruptly, since the Gu family's children must have seen a lot of the world.

Therefore, Gu Xijue's decision to use the child as a shield was certainly the right one.

Gu Donglin thought about it and realized that even if he was dissatisfied with his daughter-in-law Song Jin'an, he could only grit his teeth and accept it.

“That’s fine. Children should be taken out more often to broaden their horizons. The children of the Gu family cannot be mediocre.” Of course, the Gu family has raised Gu Hetang to be an outstanding student from an elite educational background since he was a child.

A family-oriented child cannot be lacking.

At this moment, Madam Gu had no objections. Even though she didn't want Song Jin'an to go, she still thought that if her granddaughter could go and be influenced by people at the top of the pyramid, she would become a better member of the Gu family.

"Okay, take good care of Xijue and the child after you go." Madam Gu didn't say anything harsh this time. Song Jin'an thought so, but the next second, she reverted to her usual tone: "Don't embarrass the Gu family when you're out. You should know that you represent the reputation of our Gu family."

After saying that, he didn't say anything more.

She spent some time playing with Gu Hetang at the old house, while Gu Donglin asked Gu Xijue to go to the study to talk about something.

Two hours later, the family of three left the old house and returned to the villa.

Song Jin'an sat in the car, took out her phone and glanced at it for a few moments, when the comic editor jumped out.

Congratulations! A publishing house wants to publish the comic you're currently drawing!

She got goosebumps just looking at that line of text in the chat input box!
The editor quickly sent another "You're awesome" emoji and continued to ask questions.

[It can only be published after the drawing is finished. I haven't finished discussing the specific steps with the publisher yet. Do you have any requirements?]

Song Jin'an's heart was pounding; how could she possibly ask for anything else!
She hadn't asked for anything at all, so she quickly replied: "No, I'm so happy."

Soon after, the editor said there was more good news and sent me a screenshot of a payslip.

[This is your royalties from four months of publishing your comic overseas. As a newcomer, this is already a lot. Keep working on your plot and drawing, and you'll definitely get another surge in traffic after it's finished.]
