Gu Zhaoming remained unaccustomed to his wife's tone, but he remained composed, a sharp contrast to the fidgety Gu Pei.
Casting a glance back at the children, he relented. "Alright."
Gu Hongwei turned his attention to Ruan Xueling. "Is this your wife, then? The daughter of the Ruan family in Jin City?"
Upon Gu Zhaoming's marriage, he had dispatched inquiries and gifts to ascertain details about his eldest daughter-in-law.
The Ruan Family of Jin City boasted a respectable lineage, garnering recognition throughout the region.
With a warm smile, Ruan Xueling endeavored to mimic her daughter's voice. "Yes, Dad."
Gu Hongwei's gaze shifted to the children standing behind them.
Ruan Xueling pivoted, addressing them. "Yangyang, Jin, Pei, Jue, come and greet your grandfather."
Gu Pei hastily concealed the finger he had bitten, his demeanor stiffening. "Grandpa."
