Gu Zhihua said coquettishly, "It's so wonderful to have Mom around."

"You're about to become a mother, yet you're still acting like a child. You sit and eat, I'll go to the kitchen to prepare dinner tonight," Liang Yulan said affectionately.

"I'll help you." Gu Yuanshan also doted on his wife, and he wouldn't let Liang Yulan do these things at home.

Gu Zhihua watched their loving backs with a smile on her face and a snack in her mouth. It tasted just like home and was delicious.

She scrolled through her WeChat Moments on her phone and saw that her brother was showing off his love again. She quickly gave him a thumbs up. Now she had two parents who loved her, as well as her brother, sister-in-law, and husband. She was so happy.

She ate for a while, then felt sleepy and fell asleep on the sofa.

Liang Yulan came out and saw that she was asleep. She took a blanket and gently covered her up, her eyes full of affection.

She turned around and went back to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Gu Zhihua woke up after sleeping for two hours and could already smell the aroma of food wafting from the kitchen. Just as she sat up, she saw Mo Yeting walk in.

"Honey~ Why are you back at this hour?" She had just woken up, and her voice was a little hoarse.

"Mom and Dad are here, so I'm leaving get off work early." He walked over and saw her sleeping face, which was flushed, and couldn't help but pinch her cheek.

Liang Yulan came out and saw this scene. She smiled and said, "A-Ting is back. Dinner is ready."

"Okay, finally we can eat. I'm so hungry. I'm eating for two people now." Gu Zhihua made excuses for her foodie ways.

"Little glutton, go wash your hands and eat." Liang Yulan was amused.

Mo Yeting helped her to her feet. She was quite far along in her pregnancy, and her movements were becoming clumsy. "Walk slowly, you're pregnant now."

"Okay, I got it. You've gone from a CEO who's very sparing with words to a nagging man," Gu Zhihua said playfully.

"Zhihua, A-Ting is just worried about you. Slow down." Liang Yulan became nervous seeing her so carefree.

The family sat down, and the table was full of delicious dishes prepared by Liang Yunlan and Gu Yuanshan.

Gu Zhihua couldn't wait to put it in her bowl, took a bite, and her expression clearly showed how delicious it was. She looked so happy that she was practically flying, which made everyone laugh.

After dinner, Gu Zhihua chatted with her parents until late. Liang Yulan urged her to rest early, and she reluctantly stood up.

Thinking of something, she said, "Mom, I'll come over tomorrow and help you with some light makeup so we can go to the wedding."

"Okay, whatever you say. See you tomorrow. Go back and get some rest." Liang Yulan saw her off at the door, waved to her as she got into the car, and only after the car drove away did she turn around and go back to the villa.

The next day.

Mo Yeting got up, and Gu Zhihua, still half-asleep, asked, "Honey, I'm going to my cousin's wedding with Mom and Dad tonight. Aren't you coming?"

"I'll go to the company first. Tell me the address tonight, and I'll head over there," Mo Yeting said.

"Oh~ okay~" She was so sleepy that she couldn't keep her eyes open. Ever since she got pregnant, she had honestly felt that she couldn't get enough sleep. Now she didn't have to go to school, and graduating next month would be just right. Her due date would be coming up by then.

Seeing how sleepy she was, he came over and kissed her forehead. "Sweetie, sleep a little longer. Husband's going to work."

"Okay, be careful on the road, I'm going to sleep a little longer." After saying that, she closed her eyes and fell asleep again.

She slept until noon, when she received a call from Liang Yulan inviting her to lunch.

After washing up, she went to the dressing room, found a Korean-style dress to change into, and put on a pair of comfortable flat shoes before going out.

After lunch, she went upstairs to help Liang Yulan pick out clothes. "Mom, these clothes are all for you. You don't come out often, so you never have a chance to wear them."

"Mom is getting on in years, you don't need to spend money on me. As long as I'm comfortable, that's fine. These clothes are very expensive, and I'd feel bad if I got them dirty in the countryside," Liang Yulan said with a smile.

"Mom, why don't you and Dad move to Kyoto? I'm worried about you staying in the countryside," Gu Zhihua said several times.

"When you have your baby, we'll come and stay for a while, and we can help you take care of the baby and share some of the burden." Liang Yulan had already thought it through.

"That's great! Your parents from Shanghai can come too, then you won't be bored." Gu Zhihua felt a warm feeling at the thought; it would be so lively with so many people.

"Yes, it will be more lively with more people." Liang Yulan and Gu Zhihua's biological parents had met before, and the two families got along well and chatted a lot, so there was no awkwardness between them.

"Mom, wear this one." Gu Zhihua picked up a suit, a beige chunky knit skirt suit, which was perfect for attending the wedding today.

"Okay." Liang Yulan didn't usually like to dress up, so she agreed to whatever Gu Zhihua told her to wear.

Gu Zhihua pulled her to sit in front of the dressing table. "Mom, let me help you with your makeup."

This was Liang Yulan's first time wearing makeup. What woman doesn't love beauty? But she usually didn't think it was necessary. "Okay, you arrange it today."

Half an hour later, Gu Zhihua finished her makeup. Looking at herself in the mirror, Liang Yulan couldn't help but exclaim, "Zhihua, is this really me?"

"Mom, you're beautiful as you are. I just put on some light makeup for you." Gu Zhihua had always thought her mother was the most beautiful girl in the whole village.

"You have such a sweet mouth, it makes my mouth practically pop out of my head." Liang Yulan was so embarrassed by the compliment that she felt embarrassed.

"Dad, you're here just in time! Come and see Mom, isn't she beautiful?" Gu Zhihua looked at Gu Yuanshan standing at the door.

Liang Yulan turned her head, and the moment Gu Yuanshan saw her, he felt a flutter in his heart. "Beautiful, really beautiful. I'm not bragging, your mother is the most beautiful in our village."

"I knew it, Mom must be the village beauty," Gu Zhihua said proudly.

"You two are praising me to the skies." Liang Yulan blushed from the praise.

"Dad, you should go change your clothes too. It's almost time to leave." Gu Zhihua picked up the suit jacket and stuffed it into his hands.

"I have clothes too?" Gu Yuanshan smiled.

"Dad, you must have been the village heartthrob back then. You would look incredibly handsome in a suit." Gu Zhihua praised him generously. In fact, her parents were very good-looking, but they were honest and down-to-earth and didn't like to dress up, so they kept a low profile.

Gu Yuanshan was beaming from ear to ear after being praised by his daughter, so he took his suit and went next door to change.

Jingli Five-Star Hotel.

The dressing room.

Liang Yuqin sat in front of the dressing table. "Daughter, look! Can I outdo that Liang Yulan today? Everyone used to say she was the most beautiful, but she married a poor man and suffered in the village. I bet she's old and faded by now."

"Mom, you're definitely prettier than Auntie, and that Gu Zhihua, I hate her self-righteous attitude the most," Guan Ling said unhappily.

"It's strange, that Gu Zhihua doesn't look like them. I wonder if Liang Yulan stole her from somewhere," Liang Yuqin said disparagingly.
