Gu Xiaozhan naturally knew the children were smart and capable, but he had always been a strict father, demanding absolute rigor from himself and from his children.
He absolutely would not allow the children to be as lax as Mu Anhan because Mu Anhan had him to spoil her. He could ensure her a lifetime of wealth and prosperity.
Whatever she wanted, he would give her.
Of course, leaving him or betraying him was absolutely not allowed.
But the children were different; eventually, they would grow up, and one day he would grow old, while they would soar independently like eagles through the sky.
Only when they mastered the skills of survival could they become masters of this world.
He glanced at the woman beside him who sweetly exhaled by his neck, her smile was delightful, and her eyes were full of pride and satisfaction for the children.
However, he mercilessly refused, "No way!"
Mu Anhan: "..." This Great Demon King is too much!
Gu Yao: "..." I knew this would be the outcome!
Gu Yu: "..." Daddy is the least lovable at times like this!
Zhu Chen: "..." Wanting to laugh but not daring to, what if I burst?
Ye Wennuan: "..." Mr. Gu, I knew you favored knowledgeable women with insight and vision like me!
Gu Yu slid down from Gu Xiaozhan’s lap, determined not to be on good terms with Daddy today. She ran to Gu Yao, "Brother, let’s go! Time to do homework."
Ye Wennuan, with the stance of a victor, said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu! I will diligently teach the children, making them the best successors for the Gu Family!"
Mu Anhan was so angry she was practically steaming from her head. She withdrew her little paw from the man’s shoulder. Despite the lessons needing to continue, she couldn’t stand Ye Wennuan’s smug face.
Unexpectedly, before she could retaliate, that wretched man Gu Xiaozhan spoke up, "Mu Anhan, go finish your studies."
He remembered clearly that when she was pregnant with his child, she was in her third year and had taken a leave, and she had never gone back to finish. Up till now, she hadn’t received her university diploma.
"I won’t go!" Mu Anhan retorted directly.
She hadn’t anticipated that fighting for the children’s rights would end up costing her dearly.
Gu Xiaozhan shot a cold glare that gave Mu Anhan a shiver. How could she forget, after being reborn, that she needed to listen to him and pamper him!
"Dear, what I mean is that attending school is something that needs careful consideration." Mu Anhan thought, It’s been five years since I’ve left university, surely I’ve long lost my student status!
Ye Wennuan guessed as much and immediately suggested, "If you’re worried about your enrollment status, you might need to retake the exam. If you forgot any knowledge points, feel free to ask me anytime."
This implied that, in front of Gu Xiaozhan, she was the intellectual, while Mrs. Gu was a dunce who knew nothing!
Mu Anhan might not be able to win against Gu Xiaozhan, the Great Demon King, but couldn’t she take on the likes of Ye Wennuan, the white lotus?
With a faint smile, she said, "Thanks, Teacher Ye, but you know, compared to Yao Yao in an intelligence contest, you’d probably lose! How could you teach me? If you don’t believe it, let’s make a bet!"
Ye Wennuan’s expression changed. Although she was a top student from a prestigious university, she couldn’t be outsmarted by a three-year-old child!
She certainly wouldn’t want to admit defeat in front of Gu Xiaozhan; otherwise, her persona as a talented woman would fall apart.
"I wonder what kind of challenge madam wants to set?" Ye Wennuan maintained her smile.
Gu Xiaozhan didn’t know what medicine Mu Anhan was selling, but he was curious to see how this woman would stir things up!
Mu Anhan pointed to the Magic Box in Gu Yao’s hand, "Yao Yao, reset the Magic Box to its factory settings and let Teacher Ye try her hand at it!"
Ye Wennuan felt relieved. It was just a kids’ puzzle game; how could it stump a top student from a world-class university like her?
This Mu Anhan was surely a fool. How could she be worthy of a man like Gu Xiaozhan who stood at the pinnacle of power?
