Chapter Twenty-Two: The Second Son's Filial Piety
Xu Rou's gaze toward Li Yan held a hint of mockery.
It wasn't enough for Gu Tingyan to gently feed her porridge; she actually wanted Gu Tingyu to stay and take care of her too?
Does she think she's made of RMB? Both brothers have to fawn over her?
Gu Tingyu's reaction did not disappoint Xu Rou.
His usually gentle demeanor softened with impatience as he coldly surveyed the heartwarming scene before him: "If you don't want to be hospitalized, just have Gu Tingyan arrange for your discharge. Can't he take care of you personally?"
Gu Tingyu spoke in a tone that said, "I'm in a hurry and I'm very busy."
Li Yan squinted at him, feeling disappointed in him.
For the sake of a harmonious family in the future, Li Yan could not let this opportunity pass and immediately took action.
"You little brat, do you even have a heart? I'm in the hospital because I'm saving you!"
Gu Tingyu: "I didn't ask you to save me!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could I just stand by and let someone hurt you?" Li Yan's blood pressure spiked with anger, and she started yelling and screaming.
"You think you're all grown up now, that I can't control you anymore?"
"All I'm asking you to do is look after me, and you're not even willing?"
"Just how busy are you with work? It's one thing to not even come home, but look at how exhausted your brother is, and you, as his younger brother, don't you even care?"
"You were so gentle and sensible when you were little, but you've become like a completely different person now that you're grown up?"
Gu Tingyan felt a surge of emotion. Although his mother was scolding his younger brother, she still didn't forget to care about him.
Fearing that Li Yan might have a problem, he quickly put down the porridge in his hand, gave Gu Tingyu a stern glare, and immediately helped Li Yan calm down.
"Li Yan, don't be too angry. Getting angry is bad for your health."
Li Yan's anger was suddenly extinguished.
She smiled a little embarrassedly, recalling her unreasonable behavior just now, but didn't forget to give Gu Tingyu a reproachful look.
Look at you, the older brother is so sensible, what about you, the younger brother?
"Alright, I'll stay." Under double pressure and afraid of losing face, Gu Tingyu could only grit his teeth and agree.
Only then did Li Yan reveal a look of relief.
There's still hope for the second baby; she should try her best.
Gu Tingyan had business to attend to at his company, and Xu Rou was also busy, so they both left, leaving Gu Tingyu standing there helplessly.
Li Yan beckoned him over: "Xiao Yu, don't just stand there like an idiot, come and sit down."
Gu Tingyu looked uneasy and awkwardly walked over.
During her hospital stay, Li Yan directed her second son to run errands for her without any mercy.
Having a son means he's just someone to be used and manipulated, and Li Yan felt perfectly justified in doing so.
Almost done eating, Li Yan, not wanting anything bland, immediately pulled Gu Tingyu to order: "Xiaoyu, I want to eat Xu Ji's sweet and sour pork ribs, Zhang Ji's roast chicken..."
Whenever this happens, Gu Tingyu always gives him a "Are you a pig?" look, as if he's about to quit the job at any moment.
Li Yan glanced at him lightly, always finding a way to deal with him: "Didn't your mother teach you to treat your savior well?"
Gu Tingyu: "......"
He could only manage a forced smile and obediently memorize it, a hint of helplessness creeping into his deep eyes.
Xu Rou brought some things and came to see Li Yan again, slightly dissatisfied that Li Yan was ordering Gu Tingyu around so easily.
"Li Yan, A Yu is already so busy, why are you still making him run around all the time?"
"He's a big star, it's not easy for him when he's away from home, you should be understanding, right?"
Li Yan looked at her output with a calm gaze, then turned to Gu Tingyu and asked, "Will you help me buy it?"
