Chapter 1075: Chapter 1075: Don’t Affect Grandma’s Mood

"Don’t keep looking at me like that." Xia Yinian nudged her lips and glanced at Gu Beicheng.

"I like it." Gu Beicheng raised an eyebrow.

His gaze remained fixed on her, yet he accurately speared a piece of steak and brought it to his mouth.

Xia Yinian looked at this man who looked stunning even while eating, wanting to say something, but unable to.

Suddenly, Chi He walked in from outside.

"Uncle, the Old Madam and Lady Qing are on their way, they’ll arrive in about two minutes."

"It’s fine, let them come in." Gu Beicheng waved his hand, his sight still focused on one person.

"But, Miss Niannian..." Chi He was a bit worried.

However, seeing Seventh Young Master so calm, he could only nod his head.

"Yes, Seventh Young Master." Chi He turned to leave.

"Uncle, I need to go, you should find a way with Chi He." Xia Yinian was not so composed.

She wasn’t afraid of Grandma, only worried about her health.

Knowing well that Yu Wanqing wouldn’t let things rest easily, if she blocked her in Feng Residence, she didn’t know what she might do.

Xia Yinian was not afraid to fight her to the end, she just feared this wouldn’t cause a storm in the Gu Family, affecting those she cared about.

Grandma, Uncle, and Brother Ling Qian were all people she cared about, she couldn’t be that selfish.

She would find another way to deal with Yu Wanqing, there was no hurry.

Moreover, daring to bring Grandma here, she must have been thoroughly prepared.

Sometimes those in power speak the truth, after all, they can forge lies into truths.

If you lack power, you are left feeling oppressed inside.

"Sit down." Gu Beicheng’s voice was calm, yet indisputable.

Xia Yinian took a deep breath, lightly pursed her lips and blinked.

She couldn’t understand Uncle, and probably never would, so she surely didn’t know what he planned to do.

Under his determined gaze, she pursed her lips and sat back down in her seat.

"Uncle, promise me, don’t disturb Grandma’s mood."

Xia Yinian’s words made the composed Gu Beicheng’s eyebrows unconsciously raise slightly.

This girl, he had thought she would ask him not to reveal their situation, or hope he’d seek revenge for her, but unexpectedly her first thought was for mom.

Gu Beicheng’s heart surged momentarily, but he showed no discomfort.

"Okay." He nodded, and tapped the edge of the bowl with the fork in his hand.

Xia Yinian breathed a sigh of relief, said nothing more, and lowered her head to pick up the spoon in the bowl once again.

She understood well what Uncle needed, and she wouldn’t wish to see him in a tight spot.

Grandma’s treatment couldn’t be interrupted, cooperation between the Yu Family and Gu Family could continue, but she promised herself that this matter wouldn’t be settled just like that.

Yu Wanqing schemed against her, that was one thing, but to plot against Uncle like this, even exploiting Grandma’s trust in her.

One day, she would completely unveil Yu Wanqing’s false mask.

"Old Madam, Lady Qing, Seventh Young Master is in the dining room." Chi He’s voice carried inside.

Xia Yinian pursed her lips, a calm demeanor replaced her expression, she seemed quite matched with Gu Beicheng.

When Yu Wanqing pushed the Old Madam and appeared at the dining room entrance, Chi He added, "Miss Niannian is also here."

Earlier he hadn’t mentioned it because he was still observing the situation inside.

Since Seventh Young Master hadn’t hidden Miss Niannian, he could only speak openly.

Looking at Xia Yinian, Yu Wanqing’s face turned a shade paler than before.
