A moment ago, Mr. Bai was holding the gift from his granddaughter, full of joy. He suppressed the corners of his mouth to prevent it from curling up.
Let alone a Ganoderma lucidum tree, even a piece of potato would make Bai Qifeng so happy that he couldn't sleep for several days!
As a result, the next moment, he heard his daughter Bai Mengchen's sour tone.
Bai Qifeng turned around and saw Bai Mengchen and Zhang Weiyang.
He frowned, "Why are you here?"
Bai Changle asked this question just now. Bai Mengchen didn't feel anything yet, but now that her father said this, she felt aggrieved and uncomfortable.
Bai Mengchen said carefully and in a flattering tone, "Dad, as you said, it's your birthday today, why don't we come?"
"But didn't I tell you last time that you don't need to come today?" Mr. Bai frowned, then turned his head and looked at Gu Yan's expression worriedly.
He didn't let Bai Mengchen and Zhang Weiyang come because he was worried that Xiaoyan would think too much.
Today is Xiaoyan's first time back to Bai's house, and it has a different meaning.
Moreover, Bai Qifeng was also very disappointed with his daughter Bai Mengchen.
Bai Mengchen's face changed color when she heard the old man say it so rudely. She was surrounded by juniors and younger brothers, not to mention that the person who said this now was her father.
Bai Mengchen didn't care what others said or did.
But what dad said...
The circles under her eyes began to slowly turn red.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Weiyang came over immediately. She was dressed very formally today, but she didn't wear makeup, and her whole body showed a touch of sickly tenderness.
She said softly, "Grandpa, we were all wrong for what happened before. In addition to wishing you a happy birthday today, we also want to apologize to sister Xiaoyan."
After saying this, Zhang Weiyang turned around and looked at Gu Yan very humbly, "Xiaoyan, what happened in the past was all my fault, can you forgive me?"
After saying that, she bowed to Gu Yan.
Ninety degrees.
Gu Yan looked at Zhang Weiyang quietly.
Zhang Weiyang was indeed very smart. After the old man showed up, she began to show off her weakness to gain sympathy, and then apologized to Gu Yan preemptively.
If Gu Yan accepted Zhang Weiyang's apology, then no matter what happened to Mr. Bai, they would not be driven away today.
Zhang Weiyang bowed and then looked at Bai Mengchen.
The two of them had agreed before coming here that they would apologize to Gu Yan in person.
Of course Bai Mengchen was not happy, but Zhang Weiyang said that everything was for Mr. Bai, so he should just treat himself as aggrieved.
Only then did Bai Mengchen agree.
Therefore, after seeing Zhang Weiyang's apology, Bai Mengchen reluctantly said, "Xiaoyan, what happened before was my aunt's fault. My aunt apologizes to you, so please forgive my aunt."
Bai Jianjun and Xie Luan, who had just come out of the kitchen, also saw this scene.
They actually didn't quite believe that Bai Mengchen and Zhang Weiyang, who were so tense before, actually apologized as soon as they said they were sorry.
But this deadlock is not something that Mr. Bai can talk about, even if he is today's birthday boy.
After all, everyone knows that the protagonist of today's family dinner is Gu Yan.
Everyone's eyes fell on Gu Yan.
There are expectations, calculations, concerns, and confusion.
Gu Yantian stood there quietly, not looking at anyone else, her eyes only fell on Zhang Weiyang.
Her eyes were focused, and there was a trace of hatred that could never be let go.
Lu Ye's tragic death in her previous life, and Gu Yan's final time in prison, were like poison, eroding Gu Yan's dreams night after night.
