Zhang Mei noticed Gu Zi’s gaze on her empty hands. She let out a forced laugh, hoping to alleviate the awkwardness, and initiated a conversation. “Little Zi, it’s been a while. I had some free time today and decided to visit you. I left in such a hurry that I didn’t bring any gifts. You won’t hold it against me, will you?”

Gu Zi, holding Su Le’s hand, responded indifferently, “If you hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t have noticed that you came to see me. But it’s okay if you didn’t bring any gifts. I believe that next time you won’t come empty-handed, especially since I have three children. Whenever an elder visits, they always hope for some interesting snacks.”

Zhang Mei’s expression shifted, a hint of embarrassment creeping in. If she came empty-handed next time, it would indeed be unreasonable. She had initially thought that seeing her foster daughter living in such a large, beautiful house, she could gain some benefits. But now, it seemed there were no benefits to reap. She decided to get straight to the point.

“I apologize for my oversight this time. Next time, I’ll definitely bring some treats for the three children. Gu Zi, you don’t know how hard I’ve been working lately, both at work and at home. Thankfully, I found a nanny, which gave me some free time. Plus, with Miaomiao still in jail, my heart is heavy. You’re doing well now, back in the city, living in such a large house. This house…”

Zhang Mei wanted to ask whether the house was bought or rented. Although she had already assumed it was rented, she still wanted to ask Gu Zi. It seemed as if hearing the answer from Gu Zi herself would put her at ease.

However, Gu Zi didn’t want to hear any of this and interrupted her, “Auntie, just tell me what you want.”

Zhang Mei was taken aback, her words cut off mid-sentence, leaving her feeling uncomfortable. But Gu Zi was already impatient, so she had no choice but to get to the point. “Actually, I came today because of your Uncle Gu. A lot has been happening at home recently. Your Uncle Gu and I have been arguing non-stop. I don’t even know what’s going on anymore. Now, even a single wrong word can spark a fight.”

In the past, after their quarrels, Gu Shan would sometimes take the initiative to make amends. However, recently, this had changed. More than once, after a fight, he would leave and not return for the entire night.

Zhang Mei felt helpless, resorting to sending the nanny to find him and follow him.

Zhang Mei sighed as she spoke, particularly about the previous night when Gu Shan had mentioned that he would be staying at the military base for a while due to a large-scale drill in the capital.

Zhang Mei was unsure whether this was true or not. There had been similar drills in the past, but Gu Shan had never mentioned needing to stay at the base before. Zhang Mei was genuinely worried about what Gu Shan might be doing behind her back.

Despite her worries, Zhang Mei had no concrete evidence. Apart from instructing Li Li to deliver meals to Gu Shan three times a day and to keep an eye on him, she couldn’t think of any better solutions.

After much thought, Zhang Mei decided to seek help from Gu Zi. After all, Gu Zi had always been intelligent and resourceful. In the past, when she had conflicts with Gu Shan, it was Gu Zi who had helped resolve them.

Thinking of this, Zhang Mei’s gaze softened when she looked at Gu Zi, but Gu Zi’s gaze towards her became somewhat strange.

Gu Zi asked, “You’re worried that Uncle Gu is doing something behind your back, and you’re having your nanny keep an eye on him. How old is your nanny?”

Zhang Mei nodded, replying, “She should be around thirty. Uncle Gu found her in the countryside. She seems honest and hardworking. Do you see anything inappropriate about this?”

Gu Zi raised an eyebrow slightly, her gaze shifting. She remembered that in the original book, Gu Shan and Zhang Mei’s marriage had faced a crisis due to the intervention of a third party.

However, because Lin Miao was the female lead in the original book, she had not allowed such a disgraceful event to occur. Therefore, she had severed the relationship between Gu Shan and the third party. In the end, Gu Shan and Zhang Mei maintained a superficial marital relationship, tormenting each other daily.

Gu Zi didn’t know whether to call Zhang Mei smart or foolish. She was foolish for always playing mind games, yet she was smart for not seeing such an obvious problem. Shouldn’t she be most wary of the young nanny at home?

Although one should not harbor ill intentions towards others, one should always be on guard. How could she still dare to let the nanny deliver meals daily to her husband, as if she wasn’t afraid the nanny wouldn’t end up doing something fishy with Gu Shan?
