USA, Texas, Dawson Estates.

The stretched Lincoln runs smoothly on the boulevard.

In the car, there were five members of the Gu family sitting.

Gu Mo leaned on Gu Zheng's shoulder, her makeup was exquisite, her dress was luxurious, she was drowsy,

Catherine and Gu Zhe sat side by side. Contrary to the intimacy of brother and sister, the husband and wife were like strangers, sitting by the window, leaving a certain distance between them, and that distance, like a gap, was cold and completely isolated. All the eye contact and body communication between the two, as well as the atmosphere in the car, became silent and condensed.

After a while, the car was about to arrive at the manor.

Gu Zheng gently pushed the girl beside him, and called her in a low voice: "Lily, wake up, we're almost here."

Gu Mo frowned, sighed, and slowly opened her sleepy eyes, her voice was still a little naive:

"So fast?"

"You have slept all the way, of course it will be soon." Gu Zheng said helplessly.

Gu Mo rubbed his shoulders, and said coquettishly: "So what's the matter, you don't talk to me, your parents don't say a word, what else can I do except sleep."

When Catherine heard this, she glanced at her indifferently, "Lily, don't mess up your makeup, it will look rude when you see grandpa later."

"Oh, I see, mother." Gu Mo obediently responded, and sat up straight in time.

"Mother, will everyone come this time except for Grandpa and Arthur?"

"Ah."

"Hey, that's right." Gu Mo suddenly turned her head and asked, "I heard that Frank is coming back, is it true?"

Catherine's eyes froze, her drooping eyelashes flickered slightly, and she said "um" in a very low voice.

There was no joy, no loss, as if Frank was just an insignificant person to her.

Gu Zhe, who had been silent all this time, suddenly turned his head to look at his wife with deep meaning in his eyes, but he still didn't say a word.

Gu Mo noticed that the atmosphere had become a little weird, thinking that she had said something wrong, she looked at Gu Zheng in a daze.

Gu Zheng shook his head and patted the back of her hand to show comfort.

The family fell silent again.

Lincoln stopped silently at the gate of the manor.

The two servants at the door stepped forward and opened the car door for him.

The cold wind blew, and Catherine's long golden hair fluttered in the wind. She gathered the shawl around her body, and looked at the long-lost manor in front of her, with infinite emotion in her blue eyes.

Gu Zhe's black eyes were still calm, he put his arms around Catherine's waist, and said calmly, "Let's go."

The two walked in front, followed closely by Gu Zheng and Gu Mo.

Entering the manor, all you see are pure western faces, except for the Gu family.

Gu Mo held Gu Zheng's arm, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Can we go back after dinner?"

"Lily, today is an important day. Mother just said that we will stay for a few days before going back."

Gu Qian sighed, with reluctance in her eyes.

In the center of the manor is a circular fountain covering an area of ​​hundreds of square meters. After passing the fountain with the sound of water, the resplendent manor is within easy reach.

Gu Zheng instructed softly: "When I see Arthur later, no matter how much you don't like him, you can't be rude, you know?"

"Okay, I know."

The moment the door is pushed open, the luxurious light refracted by the crystal lighting and the marble-cut floor is almost dazzling.

The banquet in the hall had already been set up, and a long golden table close to [-] meters was placed with various silver tableware.

Gu Zheng took a glance and saw that among the many faces, there were many American politicians and high-class people in society, chatting and laughing happily.

It seems that in order to celebrate Arthur's success in the election, George is still high-profile as always, Gu Zheng thought.

The siblings followed their parents and were going to greet George first.

Gu Mo was chatting and laughing with Gu Zheng, when a high-pitched and rough voice suddenly came from behind:

"Is this Lily? Long time no see, I almost don't recognize her!"

Gu Mo was startled by this voice, they both turned around at the same time, and a fat and broad figure walked towards them.

Gu Zheng said indifferently: "Uncle Arthur."
