170 Candid Gu Xinghao

Such a silent inquiry caused slight changes in the facial expressions of the members of the Gu family.

Though Zhuang Nainai was slow to react sometimes, at this moment, she understood that Si Zhengting was trying to raise her standing in the family.

Even the message he was trying to convey as he looked at her was this: It was up to her discretion whether or not she wanted to have this meal. No matter what her choice was, Gu Deshou wouldn't be able to do anything to her.

Zhuang Nainai felt a surge of warmth in her heart; it was sweet yet heartaching.

It had been such a long time since she had experienced how it was like to be protected by someone that she could not help but tear up.

Even though she was reluctant to have this meal, she had to have it because Mother Zhuang was still in the hands of Gu Deshou.
