Carrying the little lucky star, leading the villain on the road to exile

Chapter 117. Forgotten
Bai Suihe also looked down on the Gu family's behavior and couldn't swallow her anger.

Gu Kaiyuan truly lives up to his reputation as the main villain in the book; he's the type to settle scores on the spot.

Such a personality is really to my liking. Bai Suihe couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, "As dutiful sons and daughters-in-law, of course we have to take care of our father's diet."

I saw there were wontons for sale outside. Let's go buy a bowl and take it to Dad.

“What you say makes sense,” Gu Kaiyuan said, taking out a few copper coins from his pocket. “Everyone is eating downstairs now, we can’t let our father go hungry.”

Gu Kaiyuan helped Bai Suihe downstairs, and along the way, he made sure to greet some familiar people.

They went straight to the counter and ordered a bowl of wontons, chatting with the people next to them while they waited.

"Why did you two only eat one bowl?"

"It's rare to have a hot meal, so of course I have to send it to my father first. We young people can wait a little longer, it's okay."

“You guys are really filial,” the man who was also waiting smiled and gave him a thumbs up. “Then I’ll give you my side first.”

Gu Kaiyuan, of course, would not refuse such a kind offer and thanked him with a smile.

Carrying the steaming hot wontons, the couple went straight to the dormitory. They didn't see anyone in the first room and asked everyone before finally going to the second room.

When Chen Dafu saw them, he asked, "Why are you here looking for Lord Gu?"
"Didn't we tell you that the whole family moved out?"

Gu Kaiyuan looked surprised. "I haven't heard my father mention this."

"Lord Chen, do you know where they've moved to? Are they still living in the carriage?"

"How is this possible?" Madam Chen looked at Gu Kaiyuan with a gloating expression. "I think I heard your father say that someone helped him get a few rooms and a banquet, and took your whole family to stay in a nice place and drink well. What? They didn't even inform you?"

Gu Kaiyuan shook his head. "Is there some mistake? How could my father possibly have any old acquaintances here?"

"Then we don't know. Why don't you go ask the guards? They'll definitely know."

"It's tough on you, child. You always think of your father when something good comes along, but when others have something to gain, they don't think of you. Why don't you consider my master's previous suggestion?"

Gu Kaiyuan didn't care about Madam Chen's provocations, since he had already achieved half of his goal for the day.

Bai Suihe: "Husband, I've never heard Father mention this before. Could there be something fishy going on?"
Could this be a trap set by those men in black? Let's hurry and find Uncle Cha for help." Bai Suihe clutched her stomach, her face full of anxiety.

“You’re right,” Gu Kaiyuan said steadily, carrying the bowl. He ran out, and Bai Suihe, heavily pregnant, struggled to keep up.

"Suihe, walk slowly," Gu Kaiyuan said, still worried, turning back to remind her, "I'll go ask ahead first."

Bai Suihe slowed her pace and said, "Then you should go quickly. We can't let Father and the others get into danger."

The couple's commotion attracted a lot of attention, and some nosy people followed closely behind.

The Gu family has several performances a day, and they all want to know what new ideas will follow.

When Bai Suihe arrived at the lobby, Gu Kaiyuan was already searching everywhere for his father.

"Shopkeeper, do you know where my father and the others have gone?"

"Who is your father?" the shopkeeper asked, his belly protruding. "You've come all the way to me to find your father."

Everyone burst into laughter. Those dining in the hall were all exiles from the same group. Someone jeered, "His father is Minister Gu; everyone in the capital knows him." "Gu, huh? I see. Someone arranged several superior rooms and a banquet for them. What? You weren't invited?"

As soon as the shopkeeper said this, the entire hall fell silent, and everyone's eyes turned strange.

Some people think the Gu family really has a strong foundation, because even at this point, there are still people helping them out.

Those familiar with the Gu family looked at Gu Kaiyuan with pity, then at Bai Shi behind him, who was heavily pregnant. They realized that even a pregnant daughter-in-law was not well-liked.

"Shopkeeper, is there a mistake?"

My dad's name is Gu Baijiang, and I'm serving him wontons right now.

Ma Zhi, who was eating, heard the noise and came over. "The shopkeeper is right. Someone has asked for several superior rooms for your father. They are all on the third floor, in rooms 1 to 4."

Gu Kaiyuan's eyes glazed over, and he lost his grip on the wontons, spilling most of them. "How is this possible? Why wouldn't my father tell us?"

“Why don’t we go up and take a look?” Da Niu came downstairs at this moment. “They’re having dinner in room number one right now. They just asked me for some wine.”

Bai Suihe looked distressed. "Husband, there must be a mistake. Father and my elder brother would never treat you like this."

Gu Kaiyuan said, "I don't believe it. I want to go up and see for myself."

"Go ahead, go ahead!" someone immediately chimed in.

"If that's really the case, then the Gu brothers are truly despicable. How could they forget their own brother?"

"Speaking of which, the real culprit is Lord Gu. How can a father not value his son, unless that son is not his own?"

"If he's not his biological son, why would you raise him all these years and even help him find a wife?"
In the end, it all boils down to favoritism.

Seeing that the fire downstairs was almost extinguished, Gu Kaiyuan staggered upstairs, with Bai Suihe following behind him with a worried expression.

She could see it clearly just now: Zhuang Datou and Huang Pingguo were mixed in with the crowd, and they were making a lot of noise.

The Gu family members were almost full and satisfied, holding their bellies and looking at Gu Baijiang with eager eyes.

"It has to be Dad. If it weren't for you, we don't know how much more suffering we would have endured." Gu Kaichen's eyes darted around, and he had already spotted the wooden box on the bed. He was sure it didn't belong to their family, but he didn't know what was inside.

"Father," Gu Kaiping hesitated for a moment before saying, "Have we forgotten about the third brother and the others?"

The room fell silent, not because they had forgotten, but because no one wanted to bring it up.

Gu Baijiang had truly forgotten about this son. "Why didn't you look for them?"

Gu Kaichen, "...We thought Father didn't like it..."

"Forget it, forget it," Gu Baijiang said, not taking it to heart. "The Bai family won't let him suffer a loss."

"You've all eaten enough, so go back to your rooms and rest."

Then, turning to look at Liu Yun, he said, "You also need to take good care of An Tong. There can't be any mistakes."

“It’s Father,” Liu Yun said quickly. “I’ll go back and take care of the child right away.”

After speaking, she stood up and gave Gu Kaiping a wink. Gu Kaiping also saw the box on the bed and nodded slightly to her.
