Let you go then go
"Big sister?" An Yu's mouth immediately spat out disdainfully: "Dad, for the Yi family's matchmaking meeting, you stipulated that we three sisters can't come home after 8 pm. Now it's almost 11 pm and An Lan has just returned."
"What's wrong with that?" An Xin walked out of the kitchen with a glass of freshly squeezed juice in her hand: "An Lan is back from abroad, you think we two sisters are like country bumpkins who have always been in China, don't you know that nightlife just starts at this time abroad?"
"That's enough," Gu Yunbo couldn't help but let out a low growl, glaring fiercely at his second and third daughters before sighing again: "Alright, isn't it still early? Why don't you hurry back to rest?"
An Xin and An Yu immediately pouted and walked out the door, returning to their own rooms in Liuyuan to sleep.
Anlan also wanted to quietly return to her own room, but unexpectedly was called back by her father: "Anlan, come to my study."
An Lan hesitated for a moment before following in her father's footsteps up to the top floor study.
"An Lan, are you especially... cough cough..." Gu Yunbo covered his mouth and coughed twice before continuing in a rough breath: "especially resentful of Dad."
"No," An Lan's voice was calm yet distant.
She didn't resent her father, because he had always been good to her. If she were to resent anyone, it would be her own mother who had the right to do so, but her mother had never shown any resentment towards her father in front of her.
"Next week is Easy Home's family gathering, you should go too," Gu Yunbo handed the materials in his hand to An Lan: "This is Yi Tianze's personal information, including his hobbies..."
"Dad, the Yi family is a big family in Bin City, and their requirements for their daughter-in-law must be very high. In terms of youth, I'm not as good as An Yu, and in terms of beauty, I'm not as good as An Xin..."
"Let you go then go, what's the point of so much nonsense?" Gu Yunbo glared at An Lan impatiently, very dissatisfied with her disobedience.
"Yes," An Lan stopped talking and immediately took over the thin two pages of paper: "Then Dad, I'll go back first."
Gu Yunbo waved his hand, indicating that she could leave, and An Lan turned around and walked downstairs, walking out of Yuyuan and then turning right towards Qingyuan where her mother was.
The area of the garden is large, covering more than 10,000 square meters. There are three buildings inside, with Yunyuan being the main building, used for family meals, family meetings, and entertaining guests. Gu Yunbo has a bedroom and study on the upper floor.
On the left is Lvyuan, a three-story building where Ru Yi and An Xinan Yu live with their mother.
On the right is Qingyuan, a three-story small building where Qin Xiang and An Lan mother and daughter live.
An Lan walked in, her mother Qin Xuan was still awake, she should have just finished reciting the scriptures, and at this time she was still holding a Buddhist rosary in her hand.
The mother has been practicing Buddhism for many years and has long since abandoned worldly affairs. The family is now on the verge of collapse, but it seems to have no impact on her either.
"Back?" Qin Xuan said as soon as she saw An Lan changing her shoes at the door.
"Uh," An Lan changed her shoes and walked in: "Mom, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"You didn't come back, how could I sleep?" Qin Xuan put down the Buddhist beads in her hand: "Where did you go tonight?"
"In the evening, I went out with a few colleagues for a small gathering," An Lan casually lied: "I just went to school to work and wanted to bond with my colleagues."
Qin Xuan fell silent, seemingly believing An Lan's words. An Lan secretly let out a sigh of relief and was about to head upstairs from beside her when she was called back again just as she reached the staircase.
