Chapter Forty-Five: Unconditional Favoritism
After things calmed down, Li Yan's voice was filled with exhaustion.
Gu Tingyan was not only mentally tormented by Xu Rou, but his body was also in such a state.
But her son refused to let go, and Li Yan was also tormented by him.
Gu Tingyan bit his lower lip hard, unwilling to answer or leave his mother's embrace.
The warmth that came so long ago, the unconditional love from his mother, made him unable to say anything that would hurt her.
I already promised Li Yan at the hospital last time that I wouldn't fight with my brother again...
Li Yan didn't press Gu Tingyan any further. Instead, she looked at Gu Tingyu with her almond-shaped eyes, which were red-rimmed, and said, "Take Xu Rou away. I don't want to see you tonight."
She still felt a little wronged, and these days she tried her best to warm her second son's cold heart.
As a result, all I got was distrust and resentment.
Anyone would feel bad to have their love for their beloved child doubt their love for them.
Of course, for the sake of their children, mothers can endure any hardship.
Gu Tingyu saw the disappointment in Li Yan's eyes, and felt a slight pang in his heart; that familiar feeling returned.
It was just like the look in his mother's eyes when he was a child and she saw him make an unforgivable mistake.
He opened his mouth, as if to say something, when he suddenly heard an incredulous voice.
"This time, I'll listen to you."
Gu Tingyan rubbed against his mother's small hand that was stroking his cheek, and choked up slightly.
He finally loosened his clenched fist, which he had been holding tightly in resentment.
In that instant, he seemed to understand something.
Xu Rou will not love him, much less unconditionally favor him.
However, his mother would.
Recently, Gu Tingyan has made his mother cry several times because he doesn't want to disappoint her.
He has a mother now, and he has the opportunity to listen to her.
Tonight, try letting go.
Li Yan felt her son relax, and tears of joy instantly filled her eyes.
"Okay, I believe you, Ayan."
Hearing his mother's overjoyed voice, Gu Tingyan felt a little less gloomy.
Gu Tingyu's eyes widened, unable to believe what he was hearing.
Gu Tingyan was actually willing to listen to Li Yan and let go of Xu Rou?
Li Yan knelt on the ground, while Gu Tingyan lay half-reclined on the ground, his head held in her arms.
Looking at the scene before him, Gu Tingyu, who was standing apart from the two, felt as if a piece of his heart was missing, and he stared blankly into Li Yan's eyes.
Before Li Yan could say anything, Gu Tingyu concealed his disappointment and said to her, "I, I promise, I will never fight with my brother because of Rou Rou again."
But he didn't see any other emotion on Li Yan's face. She just glanced at him with a faint look and gave a slow and unhurried "hmm".
Something seemed to be blocking Gu Tingyu's heart, and his gaze towards Li Yan was dry and lifeless.
Like a child who has done something wrong and admits their mistake but doesn't receive praise from their mother, looking dejected.
Li Yan withdrew her gaze, gently patted Gu Tingyan's shoulder to comfort him, but calmly spoke to Gu Tingyu.
"It's late, Xiao Yu, you should take her away."
Along with Gu Tingyu, who had come to cause her trouble, Li Yan didn't hesitate to kick him out, trying to curb her son's arrogance.
"Li Yan, I..."
Gu Tingyu, who had hoped that Li Yan would be indifferent to him and stop bothering him, felt a pang of sadness and tried to explain.
Li Yan suppressed her urge to say something harsh and could only say calmly, "Xiao Yu, I'm not in a good mood today and I don't want to hear your explanation."
In short, Gu Tingyu was relegated to the sidelines.
