Yu Minmin didn’t know if Gu Jingming had already recovered from his cold. She was rather worried that he went to work in his condition.
However, a call from home immediately snapped Yu Minmin back to reality.
Her mother said that ever since they moved to their new home, her father invited many relatives to visit them.
Yu Minmin thought silently that this father of hers was getting more and more troublesome.
Because of her father’s gambling habit, those relatives never kept in contact with them for a very long time. Why did they suddenly come now?
Yu Minmin asked, “Invite guests? The house belongs to Mr. President, not us. Where is he inviting them to?”
Her mother said, “That’s what I told him too. Your dad finally has face to show off now and I didn’t want to ruin his mood.”
If he didn’t like gambling so much, he would have been a primary school teacher. He gambled everything away.
Only now did he think about having face. He had such a good job but he didn’t care about it.
Yu Minmin hurried back home.
At home, the guests who came were her eldest aunt, second aunt, and youngest uncle.
Each one of them even brought their own children here.
Yu Minmin’s car stopped by the roadside. She could already see that it was beyond lively inside and some children were almost raising the roof.
Yu Minmin immediately felt a headache. She wondered if she caught the cold from Mr. President.
Before she could go in, the people inside were already coming out to greet her.
“Oh my, Madam President is here.”
“Quick, come in, come on. Let us take a look at you. Hey, those people following you must be the presidential security. They look so impressive.”
They discovered the car behind and the presidential guards.
“What car is that? It looks so classy.”
“Tsk tsk. Madam President’s belongings are indeed different.”
Yu Minmin could only say, “Big Aunt, Little Aunt, Little Uncle. Hello.”
“Hello, hello. We know your dad got lucky because of you and is now staying in a huge villa. We all quickly came to see. This villa is really different. The floor upstairs is so huge and there’s even a basement below. Is it considered a three-story house? The yard is huge too. This must cost millions.”
Yu Minmin couldn’t be bothered to speak.
Behind, Big Aunt’s daughter asked, “A few millions? You guys are too ignorant about these things. In B City, an average house in this district already costs a few million yuan. This house here should at least be tens of million yuan.”
“Oh my! So expensive? Mr. President is so generous to give such a house to you guys.”
Yu Minmin wanted to say,
They were only invited to stay.
It must have been because when Father Yu was bragging, he didn’t go into detail and intentionally made these people misunderstand.
Seeing Yu Minmin’s face darken, Father Yu quickly pulled her in.
“Quick, Minmin, come in. Why are you still standing there?”
Father Yu tugged Yu Minmin inside and said secretively, “Minmin, it’s not every day that we get to show off like this. All of this relies on you. If you say that this house is only for us to stay in temporarily, you will lose face.”
The fact was just that. What face was there to look at?
However, without waiting for them to say anything, the people in the house already changed the topic.
It was so noisy that nothing could be said. After eating, everyone sat together and it became a lot quieter.
