    “She’s Gu Shuxue, the sole biological granddaughter of the Gu family’s patriarch and the eldest daughter of the Gu family,” Ye Qingzi dered with a hint of triumph. “It’s quite evident that Shuxue didn’t recognize you. Yet, here you are, masquerading as members of the Gu family in front of the main character. What a farce!”


    With her statement, Ye Qingzi felt a surge of pride and satisfaction, finally regaining some semnce of dignity after enduring numerous slights.


    Turning to Gu Shuxue, Ye Qingzi continued, “Shuxue, I suspect they don’t possess invitations and resorted to impersonating Gu family rtives to gain entry.”


    Gu Shuxue’s demeanor turned frosty as she addressed Gu Zhaoming’s family, “May I see your invitations, please?”


    Gu Zhaoming’s brows furrowed. “We don’t have invitations.”<div>


    Ruan Xueling scoffed, “Do you require an invitation to return to your own home? You’re the granddaughter of the Gu family’s patriarch, correct? Well, do you know who we are?”


    Gu Shuxue inquired coolly, “And who might you be?”


    Gu Pei interjected, “My father is your elder master!”


    Indignation shed across Gu Shuxue’s elegant features. “How dare you arrogate such authority after infiltrating the Gu family!”


    Gu Pei asserted, “My father truly is your elder master. Isn’t that correct, Dad?”


    Gu Zhaoming affirmed with a steadfast nod, addressing Gu Shuxue, “Indeed, I am your elder master.”


    Fuming with anger, Gu Shuxue spotted Butler Liu beside her grandfather. Pointing towards Gu Zhaoming’s family, she cried out, “Grandpa Liu,e quickly. These individuals have infiltrated the estate. I suspect they harbor malicious intentions. Summon the security and have them escorted to the authorities!”


    Ye Qingzi’s smile turned smug as she directed her gaze towards Gu Yang and Gu Jin, her demeanor dripping with arrogance. “The domains of the Eight Great ns are not for upstarts like you to trespass upon. Know your ce and return to Jin City.”


    Butler Liu hastened upon hearing Gu Shuxue’s urgent call.


    As the sole female descendant across three generations of the Gu family, Shuxue possessed exceptional beauty, intelligence, and a resolute demeanor, earning the adoration of her elders.


    Having witnessed her growth from childhood, Butler Liu reassured her, “Miss Shuxue, fear not. I’ll ensure they’re promptly removed.”


    Gu Zhaoming, catching Butler Liu’s eye beside his father, spoke softly, “Uncle Liu, it’s been two decades. How have you been?”N?v(el)B\\jnn<div>


    Butler Liu froze, his gaze locking onto Gu Zhaoming’s familiar visage. Shock reverberated through him as he stammered, “Young Master!”


    “Young Master, you’ve returned atst!” Butler Liu eximed tearfully, his voice brimming with excitement. “It’s been countless years. In truth, Old Master hasn’t been well. He has longed for your return.”


    “How could there besting enmity between father and son? Old Master, burdened with the weight of family responsibility, has endured much…”


    Gu Zhaoming, sping Ruan Xueling’s hand, interjected gently, “Uncle Liu, I’ve returned to the capital to bring my wife and children to celebrate Father’s birthday.”


    Butler Liu’s gaze swept over Ruan Xueling and the four Gu children, a look of astonishment crossing his features at their striking appearances. “Excellent, excellent. Old Master will be overjoyed to see Young Master and the others.”


    Indeed, the eldest young master’s lineage boasted exceptional genes. Both the young master and mistress surpassed even celebrities in their looks.


    Gu Shuxue and Ye Qingzi were left dumbfounded, utterly unprepared for such a dramatic turn of events.


    Ye Qingzi’s fury intensified as she directed her gaze towards Gu Shuxue. “Shuxue, didn’t you im to be unfamiliar with them? Is this some sort of family reunion game to toy with me?”


    “Sister Qingzi, I truly don’t recognize them,” Gu Shuxue responded, herplexion paling slightly. Recollecting her father and uncle’s recent conversations, she harbored a faint suspicion. “Grandpa Liu, who do you think they are?”


    “Miss Shuxue, Young Master had already left home before you were born. It’s understandable that you don’t recognize him or the others,” Butler Liu exined with a warm smile, proceeding to make introductions. “This is your paternal uncle and your Eldest Aunt. These individuals are all your cousins.”


    Gu Shuxue’s gaze traversed over Gu Jin, Gu Yang, Gu Pei, and Feng Jue. However, upon beholding the striking features of Gu Jin and Gu Yang, the smile on her face waned.


    Yet, at that moment, Gu Pei shook his head and sighed. “I had already informed you that my father is your elder master, but you chose not to believe me.”<div>
