The old man didn’t say anything, but Anhao felt that there was a reason for this, so she looked into the old man’s eyes with a smile.
Anyone would feel embarrassed after being stared at by another person with such an innocent and fawning gaze for a long time. However, the old man only took a few glances at her expression. He could clearly see that this girl was trying to consolidate her position in the Zuo family. He should hate her deliberate behavior.
However, sitting so close to her and being stared at by Gu Anhao, it seemed like this was the first time the old man had seen her face and eyebrows so seriously in the past few days. He felt that something was vaguely familiar, whether it was the expression between her eyebrows or the temperament that she exuded unintentionally or something else.
In short, it was an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Hence, the disgust that he should have felt inexplicably turned into a faint relief. However, he still ignored her with a cold expression. He only picked up the chopsticks and picked up the ribs in the bowl in front of him and took two bites.
Seeing that the old man was willing to eat the food that she had picked up, Anhao knew that she had already taken a step towards victory. She immediately revealed a happy expression on her face and secretly made a V-shaped gesture in Zuo Hancheng’s direction.
Zuo Hancheng was drinking tea. When he saw her, his lips curled up and his eyes were filled with admiration.
However, Anhao’s V-shaped hand gesture was seen by the old man. The old man glanced at her indifferently and reprimanded, “You’re indeed young and childish. ”
Anhao quickly put down her hand and stuck out her tongue in embarrassment at the old man. She said sincerely,”No matter what, Grandpa has already forgiven me for being insensible before. I’m grateful and happy that Grandpa is so magnanimous, so I couldn’t suppress my emotions for a moment.”
“I didn’t realize two days ago that your mouth is so sharp. Since he was so talkative, what happened a few days ago? Did a cat take his tongue away?”
Zuo Yue suddenly interrupted from the side.” Grandpa, you are an old cat. Sister-in-law is a kitten. This kitten will be afraid when it sees an old cat. This is its instinct, okay?”
“Eat your food. You’re everywhere. I haven’t taken the time to educate you yet. The older you get, the more insensible you become. Why didn’t you take the initiative to talk to Chengxin when she was here? This Gu Anhao had been with her, yet she was always by her side like a conjoined twin.”The old man scolded Zuo Yue.
Zuo Yue immediately put down her chopsticks and said, “Can we not cut the core?” Chengxin mentioned her when she was here, and you still mentioned her when she’s not here. Is this the Zuo family or the Cheng family? Grandpa, you’re too biased!”
“You…”
“Alright, say less.” Seeing that Zuo Hancheng had not said anything, Father Zuo understood that Zuo Hancheng must have known what was going on today. Anhao must have thought about how to establish herself in the Zuo family. If he did not say anything, the peace that had just been restored would be broken again.
“Zuo Yue, don’t talk nonsense. Of course, this is the Zuo family, but Grandpa is the head of the family. You’ve been spoiled since you were young, so why are you so rude to Grandpa?”
Zuo Yue pursed her lips after being lectured by her father.
Although Zuo Yue was not convinced, she did not continue to speak. She turned to look at Anhao and suddenly smiled.”Sister-in-law, I heard that your birthday is coming soon, right? You can stay in America for your birthday.”
“Really? Anhao’s birthday is coming soon?” Mother Zuo also asked in surprise.
When the old man heard these words, he did not want to dampen everyone’s spirits. He only looked coldly at Gu Anhao, who was sitting beside him and refused to leave. He shook her away and suddenly said,””Give me a bowl of fish soup.”
Anhao immediately ignored everyone’s questions and turned to look at Grandpa Shen.
Seeing that the old man’s expression was still not good, she was happy in her heart. After responding, she got up and picked up a bowl to scoop some fish soup. However, that fish soup was the last dish that Aunt Wang had just taken out from the kitchen, and it was still very hot.
Some of the scalding water splashed onto the back of Anhao’s hand and a few red spots appeared. She endured the pain and placed the bowl in front of Grandpa Shen as if she was not interested.”Grandpa, fish soup.”
The old man glanced at the few red patches on the back of her hand. Seeing

Zuo Hancheng continued to drink his tea calmly, as if he would not stop Anhao no matter what she did now, nor would he interrupt when the old man and Anhao had just eased up.
However, he glanced at Anhao’s scalded hand. After putting down the teacup, he didn’t say anything. Instead, he threw a faint glance at his mother.
Zuo Hancheng’s mother, Xu Yuan, received his gaze and immediately reacted. She quickly smiled and said, “Dad, look at how filial this child is. Moreover, she’s not delicate. The back of her hand is red from the heat, but she didn’t make a sound.”
“Who knows if it’s a trick to hurt yourself? You’re so clumsy. You even scalded your hand after scooping a bowl of soup. You’re deliberately putting on an act in front of this old man.”Old Master Zuo had a calm expression on his face, as if he did not care.
Anhao didn’t say anything. She just put her hand down and didn’t let anyone see it. It was indeed just scalded by the hot soup, but it wasn’t serious.
“Grandpa, your words are really chilling. It seems that my brother has really been hurt by you now, so no matter what you say, he won’t refute or be willing to pay attention to you. Look at what you’re saying.”Zuo Yue suddenly muttered softly.
The old man glanced at Zuo Yue and then at Zuo Hancheng, who was drinking his tea calmly without saying a word.
Then, Grandpa Shen suddenly glanced at Anhao.””Go back and apply some burn medicine on the back of your hand. Otherwise, just a few red spots will make everyone think that I’m cold-blooded and heartless.”
“Grandpa, you’re cold-blooded and heartless.”Zuo Yue interrupted.
“Zuo Yue, shut up.” Father Zuo reprimanded.
Zuo Hancheng’s mother looked at Zuo Hancheng and saw that his eyes were calm, as if he really did not care about the old man’s affairs at all. No matter what the old man said or expressed his stance, he had never agreed or actively participated.
This kind of indifference was indeed Zuo Hancheng’s personality. However, he had been very filial to the old master in the past and had never been like this.
It seemed that Zuo Yue was right. The old man had gone too far. Han Cheng had completely ignored the old man’s words and decisions.
However, Han Cheng did not say anything to stop Anhao’s actions.
Obviously, Gu Anhao was the only person who could make the relationship between Han City and the old master really warm up.
He just didn’t know if this girl had the ability to do so..
