Chapter 153: Where is your family?
Gu Tingyan looked down at this little thing; he was quite fierce.
He chuckled and looked at Nangong Jin: "Where is your family?"
Gu Tingyan looked down at the platinum watch on his wrist and kindly reminded him: "Little thing, you've done something bad, yet you aren't running away."
"Run quickly; if you don't run now, it will be too late."
Nangong Jin's eyes rolled around, and he looked at the corners of Gu Tingyan's mouth, which were slightly raised: "My mom and dad will be here soon."
This fearless appearance was truly like a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger.
At a glance, he was a child raised in the lap of luxury, spoiled by his family; he had likely caused his fair share of trouble.
Seeing that although he was mischievous, he was truly cute with chubby cheeks, Gu Tingyan squatted in front of him and gave a well-intentioned warning: "Uncle is warning you, the trouble you caused today is not ordinary."
"If you leave now, no one will go looking for trouble with your mom and dad."
"The Chu Family is not to be trifled with."
The Chu Family is not to be trifled with?
Nangong Jin snorted coldly at Gu Tingyan, crossed his arms, and lifted his chin high: "I'd like to see just how not to be trifled with they are."
His uncle had said that even if he smashed the Chu Family to pieces today, he would ensure he was fine.
Hearing this brat's extremely arrogant and confident tone, Gu Tingyan gave a faint smile, knowing in his heart that this little thing's family background must be extraordinary.
"Tingyan, why are you with this brat?" Chu Xuanming followed the surveillance footage to find him, and upon seeing the culprit who had ruined his daughter's engagement banquet, he was furious, wishing he could walk over, pick up the brat, and give him a beating!
"Whose child is this! Truly lawless!"
Lin Jingshu and Gu Huaiyuan followed closely behind. Gu Huaiyuan looked at the little fatty, his brows furrowed, and he looked at Nangong Jin with a cold, dark expression: "Didn't your elders teach you how to behave?"
Nangong Jin stared at the two of them one by one; oh, these were his black-hearted grandparents who were rotten to the core.
Nangong Jin straightened his back, looked at the group, and said crisply: "My mother taught me to be kind to others."
"And not to bully people at will."
He changed his tone and rolled his eyes dramatically: "But, are you even people?"
His uncle said his black-hearted grandparents were especially mean and vicious to his mother, and were rotten through and through.
Nangong Jin had been taught by his great-grandmother since he was small to respect the old and love the young, but there was no need to do so for vicious old people.
They were just bad people who had grown old.
This was a roundabout way of insulting them.
Lin Jingshu's expression was terrifyingly cold as she looked at this ill-mannered brat; he had ruined her son's engagement banquet and caused both the Gu Family and the Chu Family to lose all face.
Lin Jingshu looked at this wicked child and said viciously: "Call his parents here; this matter isn't over today!"
"I want him to pay until he is bankrupt!"
"Offending our Gu Family, I will make them know what regret is."
"If a child is not taught, it is the father's fault."
"If this child is like this, his own father certainly isn't anything good either."
Hearing this, Nangong Jin clapped his hands: "Hey, you're right."
The only one in the know, Gu Yichen: "..."
He stepped forward to block Nangong Jin, looking at Lin Jingshu: "Grandma, the little brother didn't mean it."
Nangong Jin: "I did mean it."
"So what?"
Gu Yichen turned around and hurriedly covered his mouth, panicked, and warned him: "Do you want to implicate your mother?"
Nangong Jin blinked his eyes; his mother had his uncle, his uncles, and his great-grandparents, who would dare touch her?
Nangong Jin pulled Gu Yichen's hand away, wearing an expression of someone who was not afraid of being boiled.
Chu Sheng walked over, lifting her dress, and reached out to hit him upon seeing him.
Gu Tingyan reached out and grasped her hand: "He is just a child."
The man's eyes were as dark as ink: "There is no need to get angry with a child."
Chu Sheng looked at Gu Tingyan in disbelief: "He ruined my engagement banquet!"
"If the dress is ruined, just buy another one."
Chu Sheng looked up at him sadly: "Tingyan, this isn't just about a dress."
Was she really concerned about the dress?
It was her engagement ceremony, which she had looked forward to with such joy, that had been ruined just like that!
This was the engagement ceremony with him that Chu Sheng had looked forward to for many years and thought about constantly; she dreamed of marrying Gu Tingyan.
How many such moments can one have in a lifetime?
Gu Tingyan's handsome face showed a hint of impatience: "Sheng, on such an important day, are you sure you want to make a scene and have people gossiping?"
"We can just start over in a moment."
Jiang Chenxue saw the clear impatience on Gu Tingyan's face and, fearing he would get angry and turn to leave in a fit of rage, panicked.
That would plunge the Chu Family into a quagmire and crisis.
Tomorrow, those wealthy socialites in Beijing would look down on them.
Jiang Chenxue went over, took her arm, and lowered her voice to whisper in her ear: "Sheng, let it go, harmony brings wealth."
"Don't make Tingyan angry."
"Once you have secured your position as the Matriarch of the Gu Family, you will have plenty of opportunities to deal with this brat."
Chu Sheng had been furious and wanted to kill Nangong Jin, but upon hearing this, the expression on her face calmed down.
She composed her emotions, managed her expression well, and raised her hand to wipe away her tears: "Forget it, Tingyan is right."
"I won't lower myself to the level of a child."
Nangong Jin did not believe it at all; did he think he was still a three-year-old child? He pointed at her: "You are lying."
"You must be plotting how to kill me afterward."
Chu Sheng was called out by this brat and almost lost her composure in a second.
Gu Tingyan looked at the child in front of him; he really did not know the immensity of heaven and earth, having caused such a huge disaster yet not feeling afraid at all.
If it were any other child, facing such intense and aggressive questioning from an adult, they would probably have been scared to tears long ago.
He, however, was not afraid, as if he had a grudge against Chu Sheng.
Gu Tingyan had someone take Chu Sheng away so the engagement ceremony could be held again.
Once everyone had left, Gu Tingyan stood up and patted Nangong Jin on the head: "Don't cause trouble next time."
Before Nangong Jin could react, Gu Tingyan had already turned and left.
He kept his little face straight, lowered his head, and used his small watch to send a message to his uncle: "My scumbag father looks quite decent, but I ruined his engagement party, and he didn't even scold me."
"Tell me, is something wrong with his brain?"
When Nangong Cangming received this message, he had originally been worried that Nangong Jin would be deceived by that dog of a man's appearance since childhood; no matter how fierce the little Tyrannosaurus Rex was, that was still his biological father.
But upon seeing the latter sentence, Nangong Cangming felt relieved.
It seemed he had not been deceived.
The engagement ceremony was held again; Chu Xuanming did not go up on stage to waste his breath and directly had the couple go up to exchange rings.
Chu Sheng took the ring from the attendant's tray, a smile on her face, took out the ring inside, and slowly placed it onto Gu Tingyan's finger.
Gu Tingyan looked at that engagement ring and was slightly dazed; this ring reminded him of the ring Qin Shu had cherished on her finger for a long time.
With an indifferent expression, he took the ring from the box and placed it onto Chu Sheng's finger.
