Chapter 6: Kindergarten (1)

While Zhao Manshi despised her, she still held Gu Manxi's arm intimately and pretended not to know anything. "Manxi, why isn't my brother-in-law here today? I only saw my little niece."

The smile on Gu Manxi's face froze.

The originally "harmonious" family atmosphere got a little cold.

Although the Zhao family welcomed Gu Manxi back, they did not want to see Gu Chu, this little burden. This was a big stain to them and was deliberately ignored.

Gu Chu sat in her uncle's arms and ate ice cream. Her big black eyes continued to watch Manshi as she played dumb. 

"Chuchu's father passed away early." Gu Manxi brushed it off. She didn't really want to mention Gu Chu's father.

Although Gu Manxi was dumb, she already clearly felt the malice from her sister. She had been in the entertainment industry before and had been schemed against by other female celebrities. She also knew how cold and detached people could get. 

"Aiya, alright, that's enough. Manshi, don't talk too much. Come sit down and eat." Tang Chunxiu tried to smooth things over. "Our family is finally reunited. This is truly a blessing."

The whole family sat together and began to eat lunch.

Gu Chu was still sitting in Zhao Yan's arms, eating and drinking as she should. As for Zhao Jing and his wife, they never interacted with Gu Chu the entire time. They despised her from the bottom of their hearts.

"Uncle, Chuchu wants to eat the crabs. Thank you, Uncle."

"The steamed milk cake is delicious. You should have some, Uncle."

"Uncle, keep eating. Chuchu is almost full."

The restaurant was filled with Gu Chu's cute calls. Gu Chu wasn't afraid of strangers. She seemed to particularly like this cold-faced uncle of hers. She pulled at her uncle and kept calling him non-stop.

Gu Manxi was afraid that the child would disturb her big brother, so she quickly said, "Chuchu, don't disturb your uncle. Come to Mommy."

Gu Chuchu immediately grabbed Zhao Yan's arm and pouted. Her chubby little face with a frown, "No, Chuchu likes Uncle."

Zhao Yan was an important person, and she would not hesitate and kiss his feet. In the original novel, Zhao Yan's relationship with the female protagonist, Gu Manxi, was average. After Zhao Yan and the Zhao family broke up, he never came back. However, he was very capable. Before he died in the sea, he became a CEO with a net worth of hundreds of millions.

This is money we're talking about! 

Zhao Yan and Kid's relationship was destined to have no successors. If Gu Chu was on good terms with him, wouldn't her uncle's inheritance be hers in the future? Besides, if Mom ran into trouble in the future, her uncle might help out on account of Gu Chu.

"It's okay. I quite like this child," Zhao Yan rarely spoke. Gu Chu was lively, innocent, and cute. He was very similar to that person.

Zhao Yan couldn't help but develop a liking for Gu Chu as well. 

He had no idea that the little baby in his arms was plotting against his inheritance.

What bad intentions could a five-year-old child have?

She just wanted his inheritance. 

Zhao Manshi saw this scene and frowned. She was extremely jealous. In her impression, she had been doted on by her parents since she was young. She was carefree and was the little princess that everyone held in their hands. Only her big brother had always been cold and aloof. He was always busy with work and rarely returned home. His relationship with his sister could only be said to be average.

Today, her big brother was actually willing to hug a five-year-old bastard! 

This Gu Manxi had no strengths and was full of problems. How could she catch Big Brother's eye!!

Zhao Manshi pulled out a gentle smile and changed the topic. "Mom, my niece is five years old this year. She will definitely continue to study in the capital. Mom, have you chose a kindergarten for her yet?" 

Gu Chu hugged the steamed milk cake and gnawed on it. She thought to herself, finally, the kindergarten plot is here!
