After severing ties, the cold-blooded family regretted it

Chapter 142 A simple couple!
"I've heard of you before. You're really amazing. Can I visit your company when I have time?" Li Xiangyu said with a longing look on his face.

"Sure!" Gu Chi agreed cheerfully.

"Really?" Li Xiangyu was obviously not expecting him to agree so easily and was a little surprised for a moment.

Gu Chi gave him a faint smile.

After hearing Gu Chi's answer, Li Xiangyu excitedly shared everything about Gu Chi with his parents.

In his mouth, Gu Chi changed from an ungrateful boy to a technology tycoon praised by everyone.

Moreover, Li Xiangyu's mother also praised Gu Chi for being polite.

Gu Chi thanked him with a smile.

Li Xiangyu's father looked at Gu Chi with a smile on his face, "You guys chat, we'll wait for you outside."

Judging from his yellowed fingers, he is also a heavy smoker.

I guess he was craving for cigarettes, so he wanted to go out and smoke.

His mother was helping him organize things, placing jars of what looked like pickled vegetables on the desk below him, and they even communicated a few words in their native dialect.

Although Gu Chi didn't understand, he could tell from the expression on his face what his mother was telling him.

Suddenly, I thought of my adoptive mother.

If she were still alive, would she worry about me like this?
Thinking of this, I felt aggrieved again.

"Child, these are pickled vegetables made by your aunt. They are not worth much. You can keep them and try them." Li Xiangyu's mother spoke to Gu Chi in Mandarin with a strong hometown accent.

Gu Chi was slightly stunned and quickly took it.

"Thank you, Auntie."

"You're welcome. Just don't look down on us. Although I'm from the village, I'm definitely clean." Li Xiangyu's mother said kindly.

This made Gu Chi feel a little embarrassed.

"Thank you so much, Auntie..." Gu Chi said with some emotion.

Li Xiangyu did not feel inferior because of this, but proudly introduced: "The pickled vegetables my mother makes are the best in our village. I guarantee you will want to eat more after you have tasted them."

After chatting with the mother and son, Gu Chi felt a lot better.

At night, Gu Chi couldn't sleep, so he got up and planned to walk around the school.

Passing by a garden, I saw two people lying on a bench.

I originally thought it was a young couple being affectionate with each other, so I turned around and wanted to leave, but I heard a familiar dialect.

Only then did Gu Chi realize that these two people were actually Li Xiangyu's parents.

"Uncle and aunt, why are you here?" Hearing Gu Chi's voice, the two people curled up on the bench stood up quickly as if struck by lightning.

"Gu Chi, why aren't you asleep yet so late?" Mother Li smiled awkwardly, pulling at her clothes a little awkwardly.

If I remember correctly, Li Xiangyu has already booked a room in a guesthouse for them, twenty dollars a night.

"Uncle and aunt, why didn't you go to the guesthouse?"

After listening to Gu Chi's words, the two men hesitated and were unable to speak.

Gu Chi also understood it instantly, probably because he was reluctant to part with the money.

Thinking of this, Gu Chi walked over and helped up Father Li, who was squatting on the ground.

"Let's go, uncle and aunt!"

After saying that, he pulled them out without further ado.

"What are you doing, kid?" The two of them kept struggling, trying to get rid of Gu Chi's big hand.

But Gu Chi threatened: "If you don't leave, I will go and call Li Xiangyu and see how he reacts." Now, the two of them calmed down a little.

Following Gu Chi, the three of them soon arrived at a motel.

Although it was just an ordinary hotel, to them it was like staying in a luxurious hotel.

"Gu Chi, please be careful. It's very expensive to stay here for a night. What a waste."

"Yeah, I'll just have to spend the night on the bench with the kid's mom."

Listening to what the two said, Gu Chi just looked at them and said, "Don't worry, it's not much money. Let's go."

Helped them carry a little luggage and walked to the elevator.

The two men stood awkwardly in the elevator, looking around.

Gu Chi swiped his card, went into the room and taught them how to do it step by step.

Sitting on the chair, Gu Chi continued, "Uncle and aunt, I have money, so you don't have to worry."

"Didn't Li Xiangyu say that I opened my own company, so don't have any psychological burden."

"I'm so sorry." Li Xiangyu's father rubbed his hands, feeling very embarrassed. After all, they were just ordinary farmers and they would never dare to stay in such a luxurious hotel on weekdays.

"Don't worry, I won't tell Li Xiangyu." Gu Chi consoled with a smile, "This is your reward for pickling the vegetables for me."

"Those are all good things, pure green foods, but we can't even get them here if we want to."

Seeing that they still didn't feel relieved, Gu Chi spoke again: "Uncle and aunt, I am also an orphan. I see the long-lost family love in you."

"So, what I'm doing can be considered as a way of showing filial piety to my deceased mother."

After listening to Gu Chi's words, the two finally felt relieved, and the look in their eyes when they looked at Gu Chi was filled with deep heartache.

After leaving the hotel, what Gu Chi didn't expect was that he met Lu Meng.

"Why are you still here?" With her identity, it doesn't seem like she lives here. Is she following me?
"Gu Chi, I'm in a bad mood today. Can we find a place to talk?" Lu Meng said cautiously.

"Yeah." After saying that, he followed Lu Meng into the car, "By the way, where's Xu Xin?"

Lu Meng said, "Oh, I asked him to go back first."

"Those two people just now are your classmates' parents, right?"

"Yeah." Gu Chi hummed softly. It seemed that he was indeed following him.

"You followed me?" Gu Chi's tone was slightly cold.

"No, Gu Chi, you misunderstood. I just care about you." Lu Meng explained, "I wanted to go up and talk to you, but I was afraid of disturbing you, so I waited outside..."

"Really? Thank you very much."

"You..." Looking at Gu Chi's expression, Lu Meng gritted her teeth and asked, "Do you hate me so much? Am I that bad?"

Gu Chi did not answer, but looked out the window. He seemed nonchalant, but in fact he was secretly alert.

Lu Meng also saw his vigilance, so she didn't pursue the matter any further.

"I think you should go back. If you're like this, we have nothing to talk about." After a moment's silence, Gu Chi took the initiative to speak.

"No, I won't say anything. What do you want to eat? I'll treat you." Lu Meng asked.

"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes." Gu Chi uttered a few words slowly, and Lu Meng even thought she had misheard for a moment.

"what?"

"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, this used to be the most delicious dish for me, and I could only have it in the summer when there were vegetable gardens." Listening to Gu Chi's words, Lu Meng felt a strong sense of guilt in her heart again.
