147 Little Ah Mai Talked

Gu Man thought for a moment and said, “There’s no need for a family banquet. It’s good that we know about this relationship. I don’t want to publicize my relationship with the Cui family now.”

Gu Man thought that the Cui Family was a big family. It was not a small matter for Old Master Cui to acknowledge a granddaughter. This would definitely cause the Cui Family and the outside world to investigate and comment. Her life would definitely be affected, so she would rather not make it public.

When Old Master Cui heard this, he thought that Gu Man must have been unable to accept this fact.

Although Old Master Cui felt a little regretful, he did not want to force Gu Man. He said helplessly, “Let’s do as you say.”

At the same time, Old Master Cui was very happy that Gu Man could keep such a low profile. If it were anyone else, they would want to immediately announce this news to the outside world. It was not that he was bragging, but as the richest family in Chu, many people were envious of the Cui family.

At this moment, Uncle Li led Ah Mai over. Uncle Li knocked on the door and walked in.

Cui Lao waved at Ah Mai. “Ah Mai, come and meet Sister.”

Ah Mai looked at Gu Man with blank eyes. It seemed like he had already forgotten about Gu Man. After Ah Mai glanced at Gu Man twice, he lowered his head and fiddled with the toy in his hand.

“Old Master Cui… Grandpa, is it usually difficult for Ah Mai to recognize people like this?” Gu Man asked. After thinking about it, she decided to call him Grandpa. Anyway, she had already confirmed that Old Master Cui was her grandfather. It would be too polite to call him Old Master Cui.

Hearing Gu Man call him Grandpa, Old Master Cui was so excited that he almost cried. “Good child. I didn’t expect to hear someone call me Grandpa in my lifetime. The heavens still treat me well.”

“Master, you’ve finally achieved your long-cherished wish to reunite with Miss Gu Man.”

Uncle Li’s eyes were also red. He had been by Old Master Cui’s side for the past few decades and knew how bitter Old Master Cui’s heart was. He had completely relied on diving into the business world and working until he forgot. Only then could the pain be relieved a little. Therefore, there would definitely not be any items belonging to Madam Cui and Cui Jin where Old Master Cui lived. He was afraid that Old Master Cui would be sad when he saw them.

Seeing that Old Master Cui was still excited, Uncle Li replied on Old Master Cui’s behalf, “Miss Gu Man, Young Master Ah Mai has always been like this. He doesn’t know how to recognize people. Even if he has fun with you like a few days ago, he will still forget you.”

Gu Man nodded and looked at Old Master Cui. “I’ll take a look at Ah Mai’s body later. I’ll guide him physically and psychologically. It might be effective.”

“Okay.” Old Master Cui now felt that whatever Gu Man said was good. “I believe you. After all, you’re the first person who made Ah Mai smile. Apart from blood ties, you must have some understanding of Ah Mai’s mind. I believe you can cure your brother.”

Old Master Cui looked at Gu Man and said, “From now on, you’re Ah Mai’s sister. If you call him cousin, you’ll lose a layer of relationship. It’s better not to call him that. Just call him little brother.”

“Okay.”

Gu Man didn’t care. She liked Ah Mai and now treated him like her own brother.

“Master, Young Master and Young Madam went out to socialize today. There are only the few of us at home. When are we going to eat? I’ll instruct the kitchen to serve the dishes,” Uncle Li asked Old Master Cui.

“Since it’s just the few of us, let’s eat here. It’ll save us the trouble of moving. Get the kitchen to send the dishes here.” Old Master Cui felt that he liked the current atmosphere very much. It was not bad to eat here.

“Okay,” Uncle Li replied happily and left.

Ah Mai was twisting his toy that looked like a Rubik’s Cube. Gu Man watched him play for a while before she reached out and asked, “Can you let me try it?”

Ah Mai’s eyes were confused again, as if he did not understand what Gu Man meant.

Gu Man reached out and played with his toy. Every time he turned it, Gu Man would quickly turn it.

After two or three cycles, Ah Mai’s eyes started to light up. Every time he turned, he would look up and signal Gu Man to turn faster.

They spun faster and faster until they perfectly pieced together a Rubik’s Cube. Ah Mai laughed again.

Ah Mai happily picked up a Magic Cube toy that had yet to be pieced together and handed it to Gu Man. “Sister… this.”

Old Master Cui was stunned to hear Ah Mai speak. Uncle Li, who had just reached the door, was also stunned. These were the first words Ah Mai had said in six years.

Old Master Cui’s eyes were red, but this time he was excited. His Ah Mai could speak. Although it was only a few words, it was a heavenly sound.
