Chapter 139: Flattered

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Hai Tang and Gu Yun looked at each other. Gu Yun made way for her, indicating that she could avoid him and go outside to answer the phone.

After the last meeting with Shu Mei, Gu Yun already knew that Hai Tang and Shu Mei did not have a good relationship.

However, Hai Tang gritted her teeth and simply stood beside Gu Yun to answer the call.” Hello?”

On the other end of the phone, Shu Mei’s voice was slightly tired.” Hai Tang? Have you been busy recently?”

It was rare to be greeted by Shu Mei, so Hai Tang seemed a little flattered and unnatural. She hurriedly replied,’”‘ I’m not busy. I quit my job recently and opened a new shop to sell paintings. The pressure isn’t as great as before…”

“Oh, I see.” Shu Mei only responded indifferently and then asked, “Are you living with Gu Yun now?”

“Ah, yes. Why are you looking for him? He’s right beside me now.” Hai Tang replied.

Gu Yun took the phone and greeted Shu Mei.”Hello, Auntie.”

“Hello. I’m not looking for him for anything. I just want to ask you if Xiao Yuan can stay at your place for a period of time.”Shu Mei said.

Shu Mei’s Xiao Yuan was her younger brother Hai Yuan, Shu Mei’s biological son.

“Sure,” Hai Tang subconsciously agreed.”

However, she suddenly remembered that this was the villa that Gu Yun bought, so she quickly added,”l have to ask Gu Yun for his opinion.”

Gu Yun said to her softly,”This is your home. You can decide. I don’t mind.”

Shu Mei explained,” There’s something going on at home. Xiao Yuan’s father and I need to go out of town for a while. Xiao Yuan just had a holiday and was home alone. He’s rash and likes to cause trouble. I’m not at ease, and I can’t trust outsiders, so I can only ask you.”

Hai Tang blinked and replied,” Alright, I can take care of Hai Yuan.”

Ever since she was young, she had treated Haiyuan as her biological brother. Although Haiyuan was a little mischievous, he had a good relationship with her.

It was only right for her to take care of Hai Yuan for a period of time.

“Thank you for your hard work. Xiao Yuan will be here tomorrow. “Shu Mei hung up the phone.

Thus, Hai Tang sent Shu Mei her home address and then looked at Gu Yun uneasily.

Gu Yun noticed the melancholy and emotion in her expression and asked, “What’s wrong? I noticed that you seem to be a little cautious with her.”

“Hmm… That’s right.” Hai Tang nodded. As she recalled the past, she slowly explained,””Although I was raised by Shu Mei since I was young, she told me a long time ago that she was not my biological mother. My biological mother had died a long time ago…”

As early as when Hai Tang was five or six years old, she knew that her biological parents had died in a car accident. Before she died, she was entrusted to the Hai family.

Therefore, she was named Hai Tang after the Hai family. It seemed that her mother liked Hai Tang flowers very much.

Her adoptive mother, Shu Mei, was extremely cold to her. Although she would provide her with food, clothing, and school, she was not as close to her as she was to Hai Yuan. It was as if she was dispensable to the Hai family.

In the Hai family, Hai Tang always felt that Shu Mei did not like her, but Shu Mei had never done anything to hurt her. Thus, Hai Tang was always careful and afraid of Shu Mei.

She didn’t know Shu Mei very well, nor did she understand why Shu Mei would treat her like this. She had tried to please Shu Mei and communicate with her, but it didn’t work. After so many years, she was used to this kind of relationship.

Even when she brought a complete stranger home and told Shu Mei that this was her husband, Shu Mei did not react at all, as if she was just a stranger.

In Hai Tang’s impression, this was one of the few times Shu Mei had taken the initiative to call her. Although the content of each call was related to Haiyuan, Hai Tang still felt a little flattered.

“Maybe your adoptive mother has such a personality. “Gu Yun could only say this after hearing it.

However, he silently thought in his heart that he had to make up for the love that Hai Tang had never experienced before.

Hai Tang smiled bitterly. She shook her head, as if trying to shake away the haze in her mind.” It’s getting late. Haiyuan is coming over tomorrow. I should go to bed.”‘

“Alright, good night.” Gu Yun looked at her calmly and said.

Hai Tang was about to turn around and enter the room when she suddenly looked at Gu Yun suspiciously and asked,””Are you sober?” Why did she suddenly feel that Gu Yun was much more normal?
