Chapter 259 He Yi is jealous and angry again.
When everyone met, Tan Yifei apologized again, and Niu Niu couldn't wait to say, "Mom, don't blame Brother Yifei. It's all my fault. I kept pestering him to bring me back. I'm willing to accept criticism and punishment."
Gu Zhiyao rarely saw the little girl so obedient and bowing her head, and she was both amused and exasperated. After a while, she said to Yifei, "It's okay, nothing unexpected happened anyway."
Since Tan Yifei's "little uncle" wouldn't arrive for another hour, everyone decided to stroll around the mall. They happened to come across a baby store having a promotion: a family of three could get a free plush toy by taking a picture and pasting it on their profile. It was the kind of plush toy that Niu Niu had been collecting, and she didn't have this new one yet. So, without thinking about whether it was appropriate or not, they grabbed Gu Zhiyao and Tan Yifei and got to do it.
Gu Zhiyao and Tan Yifei exchanged a helpless glance and then let the little girl have her way.
Everything went smoothly. After taking a headshot and receiving the gift, the shop assistant politely said, "Mr. Tan, Mrs. Tan, this is my business card. Our store has different activities every month. Please follow our official WeChat account. You are welcome to visit us anytime."
Gu Zhiyao accepted it, thanked her, and didn't take it to heart.
But Tan Yifei was different. He stared straight at the large portrait, his heart filled with ripples of emotion.
Later, as everyone left the baby store, Niu Niu hugged her doll and said with a satisfied and excited expression, "Luckily, Brother Yifei was here today. Brother Yifei, it's settled then. From now on, when my dad isn't around, you'll act as my dad and help me get the prizes."
Pfft—Gu Zhiyao was embarrassed and glared at the little girl.
Tan Yifei was amused, but at the same time he secretly glanced at Gu Zhiyao. This wish was not only Niu Niu's wish, but also his own unspoken fantasy. He was really touched when he heard the shop assistants calling them Mr. and Mrs. Tan. He hoped that it was all true.
In this lifetime, will I still have the chance to make this title a reality?
Tan Yifei stared intently at Gu Zhiyao. Gu Zhiyao happened to look over as well, and when she received his intense gaze, she was immediately startled and quickly turned her face away.
She shouldn't overthink it; it's not like that. And even if it were, since Yifei didn't bring it up, she should ignore it.
Seeing that another shop was having a promotion, Gu Zhiyao turned her attention away. Around the same time, they finished shopping and went to the restaurant.
Niu Niu was thirsty, so Tan Yifei ordered two glasses of freshly squeezed juice for Gu Zhiyao and Niu Niu. Gu Zhiyao then started to talk to Tan Yifei about his maternal grandmother's family.
"This family business was started by my maternal grandfather and has continued to develop well ever since. Especially in my uncle's generation, the company has grown to an unprecedented size. Not only has it retained traditional industries, but it has also expanded into new industries that keep up with the times, including science and education, aviation, logistics, entertainment, leisure, and people's livelihood. In short, my uncle is exceptionally capable; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a business prodigy." Tan Yifei's words revealed his admiration and respect for his uncle.
Hearing this, Gu Zhiyao couldn't help but feel happy and excited.
According to Yifei, his maternal grandmother's family was also very wealthy.
"By the way, Yifei, what's your maternal grandmother's surname?" Gu Zhiyao asked.
Tan Yifei immediately replied, "My uncle's surname is He, and his name is He... Oh, my uncle is here!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiyao subconsciously turned her head to look, but when she clearly saw the familiar figure entering her field of vision, the polite smile on her face instantly froze!
Surname He...
That's right. In Yuncheng, there's no other company with the same surname as the He Group that can be so powerful!
Yifei's maternal uncle is He Yi!
But she had never thought about this question!
"Uncle He, you've finally arrived! Please sit down, I want to sit with you!" Niu Niu shouted impatiently.
Gu Zhiyao then looked at her daughter, and some memories came to mind.
The daughter showed a very special emotion when she first met Tan Yifei, saying that it was like seeing a relative and insisting on calling Yifei "brother".
It turns out that everything was based on evidence!
Yifei is He Yi's sister's child, so he is Niu Niu's cousin and of the same generation.
Gu Zhiyao's heart was filled with a mix of emotions, utterly confused.
"Uncle, let me introduce you. This is Niu Niu's mother, surnamed Gu, named Zhi Yao. Zhi Yao, this is my uncle, named He Yi." Yi Fei said happily.
Gu Zhiyao stared intently at He Yi, noticing that he was also looking at her with surprise in his eyes, along with a hint of something she couldn't understand.
"Zhiyao? Uncle?" Tan Yifei probably noticed their unusual behavior and couldn't help but call out.
He Yi first composed himself and greeted Gu Zhiyao casually, "Hello, Miss Gu. I often hear Yifei mention you. Thank you for taking care of Yifei during his time in Canada."
Gu Zhiyao stared intently at He Yi's outstretched palm, feeling as if her hand weighed a ton and she couldn't lift it to shake his hand.
Niu Niu exclaimed, "Mom, what's wrong? Uncle He shook your hand, why didn't you react? That's very rude! You taught me that!"
Tan Yifei looked puzzled again. Gu Zhiyao took a deep breath and slowly placed her fair hand in He Yi's palm.
When their hands were clasped together, she seemed to feel him deliberately tighten his grip on hers. She looked up at his face, but saw no expression on his face.
It seems like it was just her imagination?
Gu Zhiyao shook her head, not thinking much of it. As soon as he let go, she immediately pulled her hand back.
Immediately afterwards, He Yi sat down next to Niu Niu. He kept glancing at Niu Niu, and when he thought about how he had met her several times, he always felt that Niu Niu looked a lot like Gu Zhiyao. He couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile.
Niu Niu was born to Gu Zhiyao, so it's only natural that she looks like Gu Zhiyao.
But when he thought about this, he felt uneasy, and his heart was filled with a strong sense of jealousy and resentment.
Yifei said that Niu Niu was 4 years old, which means she got pregnant not long after she arrived in Canada, less than half a year after she gave birth to her son.
Isn't it said that childbirth is very harmful to a woman's body? She also experienced postpartum hemorrhage during delivery, which requires even more time to recover, but she didn't care at all and got pregnant again so quickly.
Yes, in order to repay Xiao Lin, or perhaps it was a pre-arranged deal, she slept with Xiao Lin.
Thinking of this, He Yi's anger flared up completely, and the cup in his hand was crushed!
The clang startled everyone.
Gu Zhiyao stared in disbelief. Yi Fei, seeing the blood flowing from between his uncle's fingers, was also alarmed and rushed to He Yi's side, "Uncle, what happened to you? How did you cut your hand? Is the wound serious? Should we go to the hospital?"
He Yi stared at Gu Zhiyao for a few seconds, then shook his head at Yi Fei, "It's nothing, the wound isn't deep, I'll go clean it up."
After saying that, he got up and walked towards the restroom.
Tan Yifei watched him walk away with a worried expression, then turned to look at Gu Zhiyao and said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, my uncle... he's not usually like this, he's a very steady person. He probably got it by accident today."
