War of Roses: The Proud Tycoon，Please Surrender!-Chapter 349 Let’s go to Handsome Brother’s House
Tang Yuxiu ignored the glances from Tang Mubei and Lu Fusheng, and calmly sat there.
Gu Yan went to the front desk to pay the bill, mainly to avoid letting Tang Yuxiu cover the meal.
After all, she and her children had intruded on him, bothered him, and he had also saved Gu Xiaonian and Gu Xiaobao, so he deserved a token of gratitude.
But when she got to the front desk, just when she pulled out her wallet to pay, she was told that their table had already been paid for.
Gu Yan: "..."
Could it be that Tang Yuxiu excused himself to go to the restroom earlier just to pay?
No wonder when she came over to pay, he remained expressionless and unmoved.
She even wondered why he didn’t insist on her staying or courteously declined.
Turns out, the bill was already settled, making her trip pointless. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
Gu Yan felt helpless, it was the first time she encountered such an irresistible invitation.
Gu Yan had no choice but to put away her wallet and return, thinking that she must return the gesture next time, not wanting to let him treat them for nothing.
After all, he was Gu Xiaobao and Gu Xiaonian’s benefactor.
The two kids seemed to like him a lot too.
Probably because he looked somewhat like Gu Xiaobao.
Gu Yan thought, the bonds of this world are so wonderful, for Gu Xiaonian to casually bump into someone at the airport who resembles Gu Xiaobao.
Maybe some people in this world are just destined to meet.
When Gu Yan had just left to pay the bill, Gu Xiaonian and Gu Xiaobao also jumped off their seats; Gu Xiaonian, naturally sociable and sweet-mouthed, said, "Handsome brother, two handsome uncles, we’re going with mommy now."
"You’re leaving so soon? Can’t you stay a little longer?" Lu Fusheng said.
"It’s so late, we can’t play anymore."
"Aren’t you going to miss this handsome brother?" Lu Fusheng continued to ask, with Tang Yuxiu looking at him with a hint of mischief, easily guessing his intention.
Gu Xiaonian looked at Tang Yuxiu, her little face scrunched up, "I will kind of miss him, but handsome brother already promised me that he’ll take me out to play tomorrow, so since I’ll see him tomorrow, I won’t really miss him."
Huh? Lu Fusheng was surprised; he didn’t expect Tang Yuxiu to act so quickly!
Unprepared, he’d already secured the kids’ time for tomorrow.
"Little darlings, don’t you want to see what the handsome brother’s house looks like? He lives in a top-notch mansion, his home is very beautiful, with lots of toys." Lu Fusheng now resembled a child trafficker, trying to lure them in.
But compared to that creepy man earlier, he was definitely in a higher league; he could take his face out to do child trafficking, and it would be an absolute win.
He was truly too handsome; children naturally like beautiful things.
Gu Xiaonian was somewhat tempted, biting her lip, looking at Tang Yuxiu, then at Lu Fusheng, "Handsome uncle, does handsome brother’s house have SpongeBob, Hello Kitty, swings, a swimming pool, and Barbie Transformers?"
These things...
Lu Fusheng didn’t hesitate, saying, "Yes!"
Tang Yuxiu immediately shot him a warning look; when did he have those things in his house!
He didn’t even have a children’s room!
But Lu Fusheng didn’t care; first, lure the kids and their mom home, then call the all-capable assistant You Shuyang to purchase these things!
As for the swimming pool, they could dig one another day, no rush, just smooth it over for now.
Such a simple matter, yet Tang Yuxiu’s brain seemed inadequate at this moment.
Lu Fusheng felt he was too worried; after losing Gu Yan, Tang Yuxiu spent these past years in a life full of bitterness.
However, not only did Tang Yuxiu not have time to adapt to suddenly having two kids and learning how to be a dad, but also Gu Yan had just returned today; he didn’t want to rush things, leaving her no time to acclimate.
She’d forgotten everything; he didn’t want to move too quickly, making her feel repulsed and back away.
He wasn’t sure how her post-accident situation was now or even if her memory would return. He feared that contact with people and things from before would be counterproductive.
Tang Yuxiu once had unparalleled confidence, lordly in his demeanor, fearing nothing.
But Gu Yan was forever his variable and exception.
He used to fear losing Gu Yan; now that she’s back, he fears hurting her if he’s not careful.
The feeling of regaining what was lost plagued him with unease.
He couldn’t be sure that the one who came back into his life was forever.
What forever meant, no one knows.
As they spoke, Gu Yan returned, heading towards Tang Yuxiu, "Mr. Tang, thank you for saving Xiaonian and Xiaobao today, and thank you for the dinner; if we have a chance to meet again next time, Xiaobao, Xiaonian, and I would love to treat you to a meal. I hope Mr. Tang will not refuse."
This development...
Sufficed to surprise Lu Fusheng and Tang Mubei.
Tang Yuxiu either did nothing or acted quietly without a trace.
Making them proactively invite him for a meal means the next meeting would be perfectly justified.
Once is followed by twice and thrice leads to familiarity, meeting again later wouldn’t be a problem.
It seems that in matters concerning Gu Yan, no one could see more clearly than Tang Yuxiu.
Tang Yuxiu nodded faintly, "I’d be delighted."
Only that his emotions within his chest were forcibly suppressed.
Those two words "Mr. Tang" lightly brushed over their profound past.
But he didn’t blame her; she’d simply forgotten.
If she remembered, she would know he was waiting for her, and she would’ve returned early.
"Mommy, can we go to handsome brother’s house later?" Gu Xiaonian tugged at Gu Yan’s hand and suddenly said.
Gu Yan instantly widened her eyes, what was this about? Going to Tang Yuxiu’s house?
"Gu Xiaonian, what did you say?"
She wondered if she’d misheard.
Meanwhile, Lu Fusheng and Tang Mubei sat calmly, spectating without commenting; they were merely bystanders.
Tang Yuxiu secretly fumed at Lu Fusheng, this saboteur! Practically acting like the legendary traitor, always setting up his own team.
Tang Yuxiu awkwardly coughed and explained, "Children often have unexpected ideas."
Gu Yan also smiled awkwardly, "Understandable."
Gu Xiaonian was usually loud and full of mischievous ideas; her sudden whims were not surprising.
But her words inevitably put the two adults in an awkward position.
Gu Yan bent down and softly scolded Gu Xiaonian, "What nonsense are you talking about? How can you just go to someone else’s house."
"Clearly, it was handsome uncle who said that handsome brother’s house is beautiful and has lots of toys to play with; I just want to check it out."
Lu Fusheng choked on his words, completely sold out by the little girl.
Gu Xiaobao nodded in agreement, he too was secretly eager, very much wanting to see what might be his father’s home like.
