Chapter 332 A Journey of Unease
Chapter 332 A Journey of Unease
Besides the driver, only Gu Yinshen and Tian Tian were in the car. The two sat in the car without speaking to each other, and the atmosphere inside was colder than the dead of winter.
Sweetie sat nervously in the car, not daring to look around, afraid of having any interaction with Gu Yinshen.
As the car drove on, Gu Yinshen turned to look at Tian Tian. The more reserved she was, the more it meant that what she had done was not an accident, but a deliberate act.
"Tiantian."
"Huh? Dad, did you call me?"
Sweetie turned around in fright, her eyes darting around in panic, not daring to meet Gu Yinshen's gaze directly.
Although I found a suitable reason to dispel their doubts yesterday, the explanation was not credible enough.
"When we get to school later, you'll come with me to see Teacher Yue Liang," Gu Yinshen requested.
"Okay, I'll do whatever Daddy says." Sweetie immediately agreed.
Looking at the two people sitting in the back through the rearview mirror, Lao Zhang slowly pulled the car to the side of the road and parked it.
During school hours, the school gate was already packed with cars. Old Zhang finally found an empty space and parked his car smoothly and quickly.
"Sir, here we are."
"it is good."
Gu Yinshen looked out the window at the children seeing their parents off, then opened the car door and got out. He didn't even think about helping Tian Tian get out of the car. He let go of the door, turned around, and walked forward.
Sweetie slowly shuffled out of the car, watching people come and go, and the thought of not wanting to get out flashed through her mind.
I pretended to have a stomachache yesterday, so I definitely can't use that method today.
"Sweetie?" Gu Yinshen called out to the car when he saw that the person hadn't followed.
Old Zhang turned to look at Tian Tian and reminded her, "Miss Tian Tian, the master is waiting for you outside."
"I know!" Sweetie replied with a dark face.
How could she not know that Gu Yinshen was waiting for her outside? Her dawdling was simply because she didn't want to get out of the car and face him.
She had already moved to the car door, dawdling, but there was nowhere left for her to dawdle. Tian Tian got out of the car and saw Gu Yinshen standing not far away waiting for her.
He really just wanted to take her to see Teacher Yue Liang?
Sweetie racked her brains but couldn't figure out what other purpose Gu Yinshen might have in insisting on bringing her to school.
"Sweetie, hurry up!" Gu Yinshen urged impatiently once again.
The constant urging made Tian Tian feel like she was rushing to her death. She didn't even have the energy to give a perfunctory reply.
Reluctantly approaching Gu Yinshen's side, Tiantian said sweetly, "Daddy."
"Stop dawdling and wasting time. I still have work to do later," Gu Yinshen said to Tiantian with a stern face.
Before she could even reply, Tian Tian watched as Gu Yinshen strode confidently into the campus.
Should we turn around and leave now?
The idea suddenly appeared in my mind, and then vanished in an instant.
office.
Teacher Yue looked at Tian Tian, who had walked in with Gu Yinshen, and immediately stood up from her desk. "Mr. Gu, did Tian Tian get into trouble yesterday?"
Gu Yinshen said to Teacher Yue Liang with embarrassment, "I was too busy yesterday and forgot to send you a message to let you know. I'm really sorry."
Upon hearing this, Teacher Yue waved her hands repeatedly, "It's alright, it's alright, as long as Tian Tian is alright."
Gu Yinshen looked down at Tian Tian, gesturing for her to speak.
She slowly moved from the back to the front, and said, fiddling with her fingers, "Teacher Moon, I'm sorry for making you worry about me yesterday."
"It's alright, it's alright. Now that Teacher Moon can see you safe and sound, I feel much more at ease." Teacher Moon almost couldn't sleep last night.
If anything were to happen to her, not only would her being held responsible as the homeroom teacher, but the school itself would also be held accountable.
"Mr. Gu, besides these things, is there anything else you want to tell me?" Teacher Yue asked tentatively.
After all, Gu Yinshen is usually so busy, why would he come over personally for something as trivial as Tian Tian if he didn't have something to do?
Upon hearing Teacher Yue's words, Tian Tian's eyes immediately lit up as she looked up at Gu Yinshen's expression.
Feeling the gaze upon him, Gu Yinshen lowered his head and met Tian Tian's eyes.
The moment their eyes met, Tian Tian was so startled that she immediately looked away.
Her heart was pounding; she had a feeling that Gu Yinshen would call her name in the next second.
"It's nothing. It's just that the trouble Tian Tian caused yesterday worried you, so I brought her here in person today to apologize to you," Gu Yinshen explained.
Teacher Moon and Sweetie both breathed a sigh of relief at almost the same time.
Hearing voices outside the door, Gu Yinshen turned around and saw Mengmeng and Tangtang sneaking around outside the office door, peeking inside.
Gu Yinshen smiled and turned to walk towards Mengmeng.
"Daddy~" Mengmeng came out shyly when she realized she had been discovered.
Gu Yinshen looked at Tangtang next to Mengmeng and asked, "How long have you two been here?"
"Uncle Gu, Mengmeng and I just arrived, and you found out before we even heard anything."
"Yes, Dad, how did you find us so quickly?"
Listening to the two of them, one sounding disappointed and the other reproachful, Gu Yinshen's heavy mood was amused.
He asked, feigning ignorance, "So you mean I shouldn't have found out so quickly?"
After exchanging a glance, Mengmeng and Tangtang both nodded at the same time.
"You two!" Gu Yinshen couldn't help but smile.
Seeing the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere between them, Tian Tian's feet moved uncontrollably toward them.
"Sister Sweetie," Mengmeng greeted her first.
When she met her gaze, the scene Xiaobai had described immediately came to mind.
Why would Sweetie do something that would hurt the Gu family? Doesn't she worry that her parents might get hurt because of her actions?
Although she didn't quite understand why her father would lock a woman in the basement, she knew he must have had his reasons.
Sweetie noticed the unusual emotion in Mengmeng's eyes and instantly became alert.
"Mengmeng, do you have something to say to me?" Tiantian asked directly, making Mengmeng stammer instantly.
"I……"
"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient to talk about this here?"
Seeing the aggressive tone in Tian Tian's voice, Gu Yinshen coughed lightly, "Tian Tian, have you remembered the mistakes you made yesterday?"
A single sentence brought Tian Tian back to reality; she had almost forgotten that Gu Yinshen was still beside her.
Her imposing manner instantly vanished, and Tian Tian hung her head, not daring to speak again.
Teacher Yue Liang was slightly puzzled by Gu Yinshen's differential treatment.
Although Mengmeng and Tiantian both claim to be Gu family children, she learned through the internet that Tiantian is actually Gu Yinshen and Ruolan's child, while Mengmeng was adopted by Gu Yinshen from an orphanage.
But he actually treated his adopted children better than his biological children, which is something most people wouldn't do.
