Entwined by Dawn: The CEO's Relentless Obsession-Chapter 713: About the Family Background 6
"Moreover, now that you are a part of the Mu Family, even if Bai Chenyao doesn’t agree, I will find a way to get you out of here."
"Two years, Tian Tian, I will send you abroad for studies for two years, and then you can return."
"Then we’ll go back to the Mu Family together and reclaim everything that belongs to Mom!"
Gu Tiantian was slightly taken aback, looking at Zhang Haiyang in confusion.
Zhang Haiyang realized that he had been talking to his sister about identity matters, but had never explained why his surname was Zhang instead of Mu.
How can a child have a surname different from their family?
As Zhang Haiyang was about to talk to Gu Tiantian about the Mu Family, Mrs. Chen walked over for some reason and gently coughed twice.
"Mr. Zhang, Miss Gu, it’s time to eat."
Zhang Haiyang, though dissatisfied with the interruption, seeing his sister’s frail body, instantly lost any discontent, feeling nothing but gratitude.
"Tian Tian, let’s eat first, and after that, I will discuss it with you."
Gu Tiantian had little appetite for eating, her thoughts occupied with what had happened in the past.
Why did Mom leave for a foreign land, and even while pregnant, marry her father?
Why does her brother Zhang Haiyang, clearly of Mu family blood, bear their maternal family’s surname? What kind of reasoning is this?
"Tian Tian, people need food like iron and steel, skipping a meal would leave you hungry!"
Without waiting for Gu Tiantian to speak, Zhang Haiyang quickly added.
"Yeah, even if you’re not eating, I’m starving."
Gu Tiantian could easily see that Zhang Haiyang was trying to get her to eat, nodding in agreement.
"Alright, let’s eat, then we can talk afterward."
---
Eating was really just about eating.
At the dining table, aside from occasionally serving each other a dish or encouraging each other to eat more, they didn’t speak a word about the matters from before.
Worried about the Mu Family’s affairs, Gu Tiantian ate quickly.
Zhang Haiyang watched, slightly furrowing his brow.
"Tian Tian, slow down, I’m not racing to eat with you!"
Gu Tiantian paused slightly, unable to resist a light smile.
"Even if you tried to race, let’s see if you could out-eat me!"
Zhang Haiyang looked at Gu Tiantian with disdain, his tone familiar.
"You?"
Gu Tiantian raised her eyebrows, looking at Zhang Haiyang.
"Want to test it out?"
Zhang Haiyang showed a "you’re crazy" expression, decisively picked up a spare rib and stuffed it into his own mouth.
Then he picked up another spare rib and placed it in Gu Tiantian’s bowl.
"Eat more!"
Throughout the meal, it seemed to go by quickly, yet also felt leisurely.
Although they were familiar and knew each other well, due to a change in their relationship, the atmosphere during this meal became especially warm.
After eating, Gu Tiantian and Zhang Haiyang left the dining room one after the other, entering the study on the first floor.
When Zhang Haiyang saw the brightly smiling face of Gu Tiantian on the computer screen, he paused slightly, as if he saw the Gu Tiantian from when she first entered the company.
It was the same radiant smile, those sparkling dark eyes full of curiosity and light, making it hard not to be attracted.
"When was this taken?"
It looked like it was at school.
Judging by the clothing, Zhang Haiyang reckoned it must be from her university days.
Following Zhang Haiyang’s gaze, Gu Tiantian also paused seeing the photo.
Then, she shook her head, smiling lightly.
"Honestly, I don’t know either. When I first saw it, I was really surprised."
Seeing Zhang Haiyang’s astonishment, Gu Tiantian nodded affirmatively.
