Chapter 150 You Don't Count
Song Jin'an fired the person immediately.

Yu Yousheng raised an eyebrow: "Mrs. Gu, you don't have the final say in the Gu family."

After saying that, the man turned and left.

As Song Jin'an watched her departing figure, she felt as if the sun was blazing down on her.

Turning around and entering the villa, Gu Hetang was doing the homework left over. When it was time for lunch, Gu Xijue returned home, exhausted, but still ate lunch with his daughter.

Before the meal was served, Song Jin'an gestured.

—I need to find a new tutor for Tangtang.

Gu Xijue glanced at her, his eyes filled with an indescribable darkness. His gaze lingered on her for a few seconds before he said, "I thought you were really stupid beyond belief, but you do have some intelligence."

Song Jin'an: "..."

So, do you agree or disagree about changing to a new teacher?

Gu Xijue raised an eyebrow and expressed his opinion: "Her teaching ability is good, although she may have some other thoughts in her heart."

His other thoughts were certainly not limited to simply wanting to get closer to him.

Song Jin'an frowned, staring at him, her chest heaving violently, as if she had already guessed the choice he was about to make.

—You still want to keep her, right?

Even if it affects our marital relationship.

When Song Jin'an gestured the last sentence, even she herself was a little unsure.

In fact, no one can affect their marital relationship anymore, because it was already completely rotten.

Gu Xijue placed a piece of food on Gu Hetang's plate without even glancing at her, and said in a deep voice, "For now, let her teach our daughter. We'll see about other things later."

Song Jin'an understood.

I felt a pang of heartache, yet I kept trying to calm myself down.

It doesn't matter anymore, it doesn't matter anymore...

However, her face looked very pale, and her fingers were clenched tightly together.

……

This Saturday was another day to visit the old house, but Song Jin'an didn't want to go, so she asked Gu Xijue to take the children instead.

All she wanted now was to be alone, so she wouldn't have to put up with Gu Xijue's mother's attitude anymore.

Now that Song Jin'an can drive, she drove to the mall for a stroll. Meanwhile, at the Gu family's old residence, Madam Gu noticed that Song Jin'an hadn't come over, but didn't say anything.

The weather is gradually getting colder, and the Chinese New Year is just a few months away. Gu Hetang will be two years old soon.

Time flew by. Madam Gu first had Gu Xijue take the child to the old man's place before coming over herself.

Although Madam Gu didn't particularly like Gu Hetang, he was the only child in the family, so she was still somewhat accommodating.

In the afternoon, only three people were dining in the large restaurant. Gu Donglin had gone fishing with his old friends and said he wouldn't be coming back for dinner. Madam Gu didn't bother with him anymore.

During the meal, Mrs. Gu surprisingly mentioned Yu Yousheng: "The tutor you found, surnamed Yu, is quite adept at handling things."

Gu Xijue was serving food to Gu Hetang, her favorite dish: stir-fried broccoli and shrimp. The little one can now use chopsticks well and eats with a great sense of accomplishment; she's not clumsy at all.

"Daddy, more, more."

The little guy wanted to eat more, and just ate four or five in one go.

While helping to serve food, Gu Xijue answered his mother's question: "Did she come to see Mother?"

Madam Gu glanced at him and said, "She's been here before. She came with your daughter a while ago."

During that time, Song Jin'an was practicing driving. For two days, she asked Yu Yousheng to take the child back to the old house. During those days, Madam Gu also kept asking her to take the child back to visit, saying that the old man missed his great-grandson.

Gu Xijue poured the soup, took a sip, and looked at her: "Did Mother discover anything?"

His gaze was somewhat sharp, but Madam Gu smiled and said, "Sometimes I think that Yu Yousheng is better than that mute. If she really wanted to become the young mistress of the Gu family, I might actually turn a blind eye."

Madam Gu has already checked all of Yu Yousheng's information and has come to the conclusion that this woman has some problems, but the problems do not seem to be major.

Gu Xijue smiled and said, "Since Mother wants another daughter-in-law, and you and Father can still have children, why not have another son?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Gu immediately turned to her son: "Gu Xijue, is this something you should say to your mother?"

"Have you lost your mind?!"

That's absolutely outrageous!
Madam Gu felt this was truly outrageous!

Gu Xijue said in a deep voice, "Mother, I'm sorry."

He did give both sides a way out by apologizing.

"Mother has taken a liking to Yu Yousheng, hasn't she?" After he said this, Madam Gu nodded halfway and shook her head halfway.

She did indeed take a liking to this woman, but some mysteries remained unsolved, so she didn't make any further moves.

After all, Madam Gu had already failed twice, both times because she misjudged the situation. This was the third time, and as they say, things don't happen more than three times. She was genuinely afraid that she would fail again this time.

"Her background is not simple; I think you should investigate it."

Madam Gu spoke with a stern face, while Gu Xijue slowly replied, "Mother, you haven't even figured it out, so how could I possibly find out?"

“Don’t say such things.” Madam Gu found it difficult to say, and then said, “I will not allow you to spend your life with a mute.”

Even though she doesn't seem to be causing trouble for Song Jin'an anymore, she's still secretly making arrangements for the young ladies.

Gu Xijue's gaze darkened slightly, but his emotions softened: "I've already asked Wei Zhou to investigate."

He had done a background check before, and at the time he felt that this resume was unbelievably clean. Subconsciously, he was telling her that this woman must be hiding a secret.

Now it seems that it was indeed true.

This is why Gu Xijue did not agree to send Jin An to dismiss Yu Yousheng.

Ultimately, as the conversation progressed, the issue returned to Song Jin'an.

“Son, sometimes I can hardly understand you anymore.” Madam Gu pounded her chest and stamped her feet, her shrewd eyes seeming to have become cloudy: “Song Jin’an is indeed not good enough for you. Even if she bears your children, it cannot erase the difference in social standing between the Gu and Song families.”

Gu Xijue listened to what she said, but ultimately remained silent.

By the time he brought Gu Hetang back to the villa, it was already 8 p.m. Song Jin'an had long since returned from shopping and had bought some things.

They are all things that Gu Hetang likes.

"Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Mom."

The little guy immediately hugged Song Jin'an's leg, kept thanking his mother, and then went to play with his new toys.

Gu Xijue glanced at Song Jin'an out of the corner of his eye, his attitude somewhat indifferent: "There's a cocktail party in a few days, you'll come with me."

Song Jin'an was stunned when she heard his words, and suddenly remembered the time he went abroad to attend the school anniversary celebration...

His passport and visa were all ready, but he suddenly forgot to take himself with him.

Thinking of this, she instinctively refused.

—You take other people with you, I won't go. Going there will only embarrass you.
