The warm milk was placed on the table, but Gu Tong had no desire to taste it.
If she tried the Li Family’s food without caution, she’d really be blinded by her own heart.
Thinking of this, Gu Tong took out a plastic bottle she carried with her and poured a portion of the milk into it, saving it for future examination.
"How was it?"
Li Yan wrapped his arms around Gu Tong’s shoulders, glanced at the milk bottle in her hand, but said nothing more.
"Just exchanged a few casual words." Gu Tong screwed the cap on the plastic bottle, placed it on the table, and said, "What Mother He said was clearly flattering, and her words were ambiguous, intriguing."
What Gu Tong thought about the most was Mother He’s remark ’It’s not safe outside.’
Because Mother He was one of Gong Qingwan’s trusted people, she naturally knew all of Gong Qingwan’s plans. Being at the door so late and even making a special remark, it was easy to think of it as a hint.
After all, if it weren’t for today’s accident, they wouldn’t have discovered the connection between the Silver Teeth Organization and the Chu Family. Generally, no one could detect Gong Qingwan’s plans.
"This place, there is no one worth trusting."
Li Yan’s eyes flickered with a cold light and even a hint of disgust.
If you listen carefully to his wording, you can find the issue in it.
He referred to this place, rather than this family!
It was clear that he didn’t truly consider the Li Family as a ho regained, nor as the place he planned to live in the future.
If it weren’t for this organizational case, he probably wouldn’t have stayed in the Li Family at all.
Gu Tong understood the aning in his words, easily comprehending his thoughts, and she said no more.
After all, the one truly related by blood to the Li Family was Li Yan himself. How he chose to interact with this family was entirely his own decision.
Even though they were husband and wife, Gu Tong had no right to make any decisions for him.
Perhaps this was a form of respect, and also a subtle kind of understanding.
Sotis, this is how marriage works, with mutual trust, mutual understanding, supporting each other, treating each other with respect, so that life can be peacefully lived.
"Alright, let’s sleep early. We still have to go to the Academy with you tomorrow."
Li Yan didn’t want to continue discussing this topic. They had stayed up all night and needed proper rest.
He was also worried that Gu Tong would get tired, so he stopped the conversation and switched to coaxing Gu Tong to sleep.
Gu Tong yawned, rubbed her eyes, feeling a bit sleepy too.
Her delicate face showed a coquettish expression, and she wrapped her arms around Li Yan’s neck, clinging onto him, saying, "No strength left."
Therefore, seeking kisses, seeking hugs, seeking to be lifted high.
Li Yan had no way to deal with her antics and showed more indulgence. He slightly bent down, lifting Gu Tong’s legs with almost one hand.
Then, with a gentle jolt, he held her firmly in his arms.
Li Yan carried the little woman in his arms with a perfect princess carry, walking towards the bedroom, then gently placed her on the bed as if she were precious.
Li Yan bent over, with his slender lips touching Gu Tong’s fair forehead, using a voice like a low sigh, deeply saying, "Let’s sleep!"
Gu Tong sat on the bed, blinking nonchalantly, reached out her fair little hand, hooked Li Yan’s shirt collar with her index finger, and said softly with her red lips, "Mm, sleep together~"
