When they arrived, Jiang Tingxu did not want to cause a stir, so she stopped in her tracks:

“I’ll go there myself. Ranzhi, you can go back.”

“Okay, call me if you need me. I’ll be in the country for the time being.”

“Okay.”

After Jiang Tingxu left, Gu Ranzhi called Gu Yichen directly.

Gu Yichen almost dropped his phone when he suddenly received a call from his cousin. He finally regained his senses and answered the call with a trembling voice:

“Cousin?”

In the entire Gu family, Gu Yichen was most afraid of his own uncle. His second fear was his own cousin!

“What? Did you do something wrong?”

As the old saying goes: if you do not do anything wrong, you will not be afraid of ghosts coming your way!

Gu Yichen’s voice suddenly became shrill:

“How is that possible? How could I do something wrong?”

“Oh? Is that so?”

“Of course, cousin. How can you doubt your younger brother? We are closely related!”

Heh.

“Where are you?”

Outside the hotel room, Gu Yichen leaned against the wall at the door. He stole a glance at the scene inside the room and took a deep breath:

“Hotel.” He answered honestly.

He was indeed in the hotel. The lunch that should have ended half an hour ago was postponed to now because of an unexpected incident.

Gu Yichen still had to escape halfway through his meal using the washroom as an excuse.

Who would have thought that the two lackeys of the Pei family would send such an important message wrongly!

Aunt Pei was not abroad but in China!

The longest flight within the country was only five hours, and Aunt Pei did not even take two hours to travel there!

After getting off the plane, she must have gotten the news from her two nephews in advance and came straight to the hotel.

That was why they were so shocked when they received the phone call just now!

In the private room, a few dishes were served, and everyone started eating again.

The two juniors of the Pei family, on the other hand, suddenly asked a question that the entire Gu family had been holding back for a long time.

“Aunt Pei, how did you get here so quickly? Weren’t you still at the A State Airport when we called earlier?”

The fastest flight from State A to Yun City would take at least eight hours, right?

Pei Xintong sipped her red wine:

“Did I say I was at the State A Airport?”

The two juniors of the Pei family were astonished:

“Ah?”

Was she not?

Of course not!

“I flew over from Gang City.”

Hiss, no wonder!

It would not take long to fly from Gang City to Yun City directly.

“No, Aunt Pei, why didn’t you say so earlier? You suddenly appeared and scared me to death.”

They thought they had seen some supernatural event.

The person who should have been on the plane suddenly appeared in front of them!

“What, you two rascals don’t want me to come back?”

They did not dare to answer that!

Pei Xintong’s status in the Pei family was very high. Although the two elders of the Pei family were no longer around, the Pei family still had three older brothers who doted on their sister very much!

Therefore, many things had been instilled into them by their father since young.

They did not dare to disobey!

When that time came, their pocket money would be gone!

In the end, Gu Xiaoming spoke up:

“Ahem, let’s eat, let’s eat. Xintong just got off the plane, so she definitely didn’t have time to eat. If you have anything to say, let’s talk after we eat.”

With Uncle Gu’s words, the Pei family finally stopped.

Only second madam of the Gu family, from an angle that no one could see, flashed a few traces of mockery on her face. She even stepped on her husband’s leg without any courtesy.

Uncle Gu almost cried out. Fortunately, he managed to hold it in. He had bitten his tongue hard.
