She looked at Gu Qi gently and said softly, "Thank you, Xiao Qi. The candy is very sweet!"
"Auntie!" Gu Qi's eyes were round and filled with stars.
Qiao Nian held Gu Qi and walked into the villa with Matriarch Gu.
Just as the three of them reached the villa, Qiao Nian heard footsteps coming from the stairs in the distance. She looked up and met Gu Zhou's deep eyes.
The moment their eyes met, Qiao Nian's heart raced uncontrollably.
Qiao Nian quickly looked away. Her expression was calm and indifferent as she looked down at Gu Qi with a smile.
Matriarch Gu was sensitive enough to sense that there was something wrong with Gu Zhou and Qiao Nian's gazes. Thinking that the two of them had gotten into a conflict, she thought that she and Gu Qi were no longer suitable to stay here.
Matriarch Gu walked to Gu Qi's side and took his other hand. She smiled at Gu Qi and said gently, "I'll take you to pick grapes, okay?"
