Chapter 30: Being Exposed, Embarrassed
Qingmu Yan didn't have the habit of taking other people's things without their owner's consent, and she wanted to put them back. However, Gao Fuyuan wouldn't let her, so she continued to hold onto several of Gao Fuyuan's collectibles and returned with Gao Fuyuan to the living room. Suddenly, she felt a surge of hot air, which seemed to be directed at Gao Fuyuan...
Gao Fu Hengyan's face was black as coal, his eyes blazing with fury as he glared at Gao Fu Hongzhi. He had been brewing up all sorts of ways to discipline his own grandson, but when he saw Lin Mu Xiang standing beside him, and she looked up at him with her pure and clear blue eyes, the old man couldn't bring himself to show such a fierce expression in front of her.
"Grandpa Gao..." Xunmu Lingfeng wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xunmu Duan, "Hehe, baby, this is a big harvest! These things are just right for my family's precious child!"
Qingmu Duan hugged Qingmu Xiang and said happily, but her eyes drifted towards Gao Fuyuan, who was secretly feeling stifled.
Endure! I endure! I'm an old man! Shouldn't get angry! Must be calm! Take a deep breath!
Gao Fu Heng's expression remained calm as he reached out to take the teacup, bringing it to his lips. But how could Jian Mu Du not sense the slightest tremble in his hand?
Akane's attention was drawn away before she could retort to Akira.
"Grandpa Gao Fu, your teacup doesn't have any tea..." Xun Mu Xiang's eyes widened in surprise as she stared at Gao Fu Heng, who was holding an empty teacup and drinking from it...????
"Hmph!!"
"Hmph!!"
Two bursts of laughter erupted simultaneously, and then Akagi Tsurugi let go of Akagi Aya's hand as she pounded the wall with her fist, laughing loudly. Kōshi Hiroshi was covering his mouth and shrugging his shoulders, struggling to hold back his laughter. Even Akagi Rei, who was hiding in a dark place, almost couldn't control himself from bursting out laughing, but looking at Akagi Aya's appearance, his purple eyes were still filled with amusement.
Gao Fu Heng Yuan's hand shook when he heard her words, almost dropping the cup. He put down the teacup with a twitch at the corner of his mouth, looking at Xun Mu Duan's unbridled mockery and his own grandson's sneaky smile, his forehead secretly seething with something. But could he blame Xun Mu Xiang for being so direct in exposing him?
His old life is almost gone, and he has a feeling that this short day has consumed a lot of his remaining vitality...
"Hehehe...... Baby, it's getting dark, let's go home. Your mom has probably cooked a good meal and is waiting for us......" Lin Mu stopped laughing with great difficulty, but still chuckled softly as he put his arm around Lin Xuan and left.
Akane was taken aback by the atmosphere just now, and it wasn't until she got on Akane Tantei's car that she saw the collectible of a certain old man in her arms, and she felt somewhat helpless.
"Don't worry, baby, Grandpa Gao has already tacitly agreed to let you take them away......" Lin Mu Du's intention was to make Lin Mu Xiang happy, but not with a helpless expression.
After hearing this, Akane Motomiya couldn't help but feel even more helpless, and could only respond with a faint "uh-huh". She wasn't stupid, and now that she thought about it, she could guess some things from the scene earlier. A subtle smile rose to her lips.
Gao Fu Xuan naturally turned back into a pure and innocent little sheep after playing the villain, before Gao Fu Heng could come to his senses, he was already hiding behind his own grandfather.
"......Gao Fu Xuan Zhi! Don't come back to me again!" When Gao Fu Heng Yuan finally came back to his senses, this was the only sentence that echoed through the Gao Fu mansion, full of anger.
Gao Fu Heng heard that voice full of energy and vigor, and couldn't help but smile lightly. His grandfather was actually still quite robust.
