"Old Yu, you all should go back first. Wanqing will stay here, I will take good care of her," Gu Qingyang said to Yu Yueao, calmly.

Even if Yu Yueao was displeased, he dared not disregard Gu Qingyang.

In Ye City, among the three major families—Gu, Yu, and Qin—these past few years, with the emergence of the Seventh, the Gu Family’s business soared, leaving the other two families far behind.

The Qin Family has also been progressing, even surpassing the Yu Family in recent years. Only by marrying into the Gu Family could the Yu Family possibly regain second place.

This is why, over the past couple of years, the Yu Family has spared no expense in dedicating themselves to the treatment of Old Madam Gu.

What Yu Yueao was most displeased about was Gu Beicheng’s attitude, but he knew that the Yu Family’s future depended on him, so despite his dissatisfaction, he couldn’t show it so plainly.

"I am also deeply regretful that this happened to my sister-in-law, Beicheng. Now, Wanqing is already half a member of the Gu Family. I hope you can take good care of her."

Gu Beicheng did not respond, and it was Gu Qingyang who replied to Yu Yueao.

The faces of the Yu Family members were visibly displeased, yet under the leadership of Old Master, they still left.

Old Master Gu demanded to clear the room, and despite any reluctance, no one dared to stay.

In no time, everyone returned to the main house, including Yu Wanqing, who was being supported by the maid.

"What exactly happened? Wanqing, you speak." The Old Master hummed coldly, sitting down at the main seat.

"Old Master, I..." Yu Wanqing appeared as weak as she possibly could.

"From last night onwards, you should call me ’Dad’." The Old Master’s face was still not quite pleasant, though perhaps it was better when facing Yu Wanqing.

"Dad." Yu Wanqing called out timidly and continued, "This morning, Old—not, Mom, stayed in my room."

"She told me that last night she gave me and Beicheng medicine. She just wanted to have a grandchild sooner, not anticipating this sort of incident to occur."

"I also believe Mom’s intentions were good, just like last time, when with Ling Qian..."

"What exactly did you say to provoke Mom like this?" Gu Beicheng coldly interrupted Yu Wanqing.

Yu Wanqing knew that this man did not want her to reveal the matter involving drugging Ling Qian and Xia Yinian.

Actually, she hadn’t intended to say it, she just wanted to add some credibility to her words, thus compelling Gu Beicheng to help.

Evidently, after Gu Beicheng interrupted Yu Wanqing’s words, no one had any doubts about Old Madam drugging the couple last night.

"I..." Yu Wanqing choked up, her eyes instantly reddening, "Beicheng, it was you who upset Mom, how can you say it’s my fault?"

Yu Wanqing’s eyes furrowed, not only did she look unwell, but she was also exceedingly sorrowful and agitated.

"Wanqing, what exactly happened? Dad just wants to hear it from you." The Old Master glanced at Gu Beicheng.

The message was clear: it was a demand for Gu Beicheng to keep quiet.

"Dad..." Yu Wanqing wiped away her tears, "I don’t know...I truly didn’t know it would turn out like this, otherwise I wouldn’t have agreed to accompany Mom to the Feng Residence."

"You say it, I must get to the bottom of this matter." The Old Master commanded in a deep voice.

"It’s, it’s because of Nian Nian..." Yu Wanqing glanced at Gu Beicheng, then at Gu Lingqian, appearing extremely frightened.

"It’s alright, just tell what you know and have seen." The Old Master glared harshly at Gu Beicheng.

Gu Beicheng and Xia Yinian’s affair surely couldn’t be hidden from the Old Master.

The Old Master thought his warning had been enough, truly not expecting that he still wouldn’t change his ways by now.
