Mystic Cultivation Master

Her grandfather, the old charlatan on his last legs, and her seriously ill mother both urged her to vie for affection and reclaim everything that rightfully belonged to her, because she was the leg...

Chapter 1, 001

In the past, Wen He never had the chance to see a crazy woman, but now she finally saw one. The fingers with long nails pinched her shoulders so hard that it hurt, but Wen He still had to keep a smile on her face and listen to this crazy woman going hysterically in front of her own father.

"Mr. Gu, what was the purpose of following you without a name or status? I even gave birth to Zhu'er for you. What was the purpose? It wasn't your money, it was you. I like you, I love you, that's why I followed you without a name or status. It's been more than ten years, almost twenty years. You said you would give me a name this year, as long as I waited for the old father of the Gu family to pass away. But now, not only did you fail to give me a name, but you also brought this burden back to the Gu family. Where do you and Zhu'er stand?"

The crazy woman has exquisite makeup and is covered in designer clothes. Even her crying is very skillful. She first goes crazy hysterically to express her deep love for her biological father, and then she cries like a pear blossom in the rain, appearing very weak.

Wen He didn't know whether other men would feel heartbroken seeing this scene of a woman, but her father was heartbroken. He quickly half-hugged the crazy woman's shoulders and tried to comfort her, his face full of heartache.

The young girl next to her, with equally delicate makeup, choked up with sobs, her eyes filled with sadness. "Dad, Mom is a little emotional. I'll take Mom upstairs to rest later. She'll be fine once she's over her sadness. You're right to bring Sister back. After all, Sister is also a member of the Gu family. But Dad, can you please not let Sister go to S University? I don't want my classmates to know about my family's affairs. It will embarrass me... Dad, I can promise you anything else. I can even give up my room to Sister, and I will treat her well in the future. There's only this one thing, only this one thing. Can you promise me..."

Suddenly, Father Gu felt embarrassed. He looked at Wen He, who looked somewhat like him, and could not speak for a long time. After all, he had just promised his late father a few days ago that he would take good care of Wen He, and just yesterday, his father was buried and the memorial service was held.

The Gu family is a wealthy family, and Wen He is indeed their biological child, and the first child of the Gu family. But why Wen He's surname is Wen instead of Gu? This has to start from the generation of the Gu family, that is, the generation of Wen He's biological father, who is a romantic man.

Wen He's biological mother was originally a wealthy family. Although the Gu family was a wealthy family at that time and its status was still there, there were problems within the family, which caused serious economic losses. It was Wen He's grandfather who advocated this political marriage. At that time, the young Gu father and Wen's mother were quite satisfied with each other. They also developed some feelings after marriage and gave birth to Wen He.

At that time, Gu's father made a sweet agreement with Wen's mother that the first child would take the mother's surname, Wen, because not long after Wen's mother married into the Gu family, the Wen family's elderly parents died in an accident. The first child was to carry on the Wen family's legacy, and the second child would take the father's surname, Gu.

However, Wen He was not even two years old when Gu's father came back from a business trip for half a year, not alone, but with another young woman. He said that the woman was his first love, his true love, and was pregnant with his second child. He asked Wen's mother to divorce him and he would compensate her.

That day, Wen's mother became so angry that she fell ill, and even now, she is still ill. Gu's father was also furious. He pointed at his unfilial son and scolded him, saying that if he didn't drive that woman away, he would never come back to the Gu family again. He then took the young Wen He away.

So, Wen He grew up with her grandfather because her bedridden mother couldn't take care of her personally. Unexpectedly, Father Gu was really a romantic man. Over the years, he didn't drive his first love out of the Gu family. He also wanted to make his first love legitimate with deep affection and repeatedly tried to make Wen's mother sign a divorce agreement.

All the promises made at the beginning have become completely ironic nonsense. Oh, no, one thing did come true. Gu's father's second child really had the surname Gu, but that child was not born to Gu's father and Wen's mother, but to his beloved first love. She was named Zhu'er, and her full name was Gu Zhu'er, Wen He's half-sister, which means as precious as a pearl.

But no one expected that the old father of the Gu family was dying. He had a premonition that his end was near, so he had to call the unfilial son back to his side and asked him to promise to take good care of Wen He and not let her suffer any grievances, otherwise he would not let Gu's father go even if he became a ghost.

And now, less than three days after Gu's father made his promise, the coffin had just been buried yesterday, and Wen He had only just stepped into the Gu family's door for less than an hour when she saw Gu's father whispering to her, "Wen He...how about this? Give it to your sister. After all, your sister is almost two years younger than you, and your sister's demands are not high. Look, she even gave you her own room. How about we not go to S University? There are so many good schools anyway. H University next door is also very good, one of the best institutions. What do you think?"

"How do you want me to answer you, my father?" Wen He smiled brightly, her eyes narrowed so tightly that it was impossible to see the emotion in them. "Let me think about it. I clearly remember what you said to me three days ago. You told me not to worry, that Daddy would take good care of me and would make up for anything I lacked. Oh, and you also said you would send me to S University because it's not only the top university in the country, but it's also close to home. I can come home often to stay and strengthen our father-daughter relationship. Was I right, my father?"

"this……"

Father Gu paused, his face becoming a little hesitant. He had indeed said this a few days ago, because after seeing Wen He, whose facial features were somewhat similar to his own, he suddenly remembered Wen He when he was just born, small and soft. The joy of being a father for the first time made him feel overwhelmed with fatherly love, and he wanted to do his best to compensate Wen He.

But when he turned around and saw Gu Zhuer, whom he had loved since childhood, with a look of aggrieved and sad expression but unable to speak, his heart ached immediately. He hardened his heart and finally turned around to look at Wen He again.

"Wen He, look, it's Dad's fault. Why don't you give Dad a break and not go to S University? H University is pretty good. What else do you like? Do you have any interests, like piano? Your sister loves piano, so how about Dad hiring a famous piano teacher for you?"

It’s really not that good.

"How about I give you a better suggestion? My father, I won't enter the Gu family's gate anymore. You just need to meet my two conditions. First, give me the old house in the suburbs of the Gu family. Second, give me two hundred thousand."

As soon as these words came out, before Father Gu could react, the pitiful crazy woman screamed, her long nails almost poking Wen He's face, "Two hundred thousand... why don't you go and rob it?!"

However, this time, Wen He did not allow the crazy woman to touch her again. Instead, she pulled her away with all her strength and looked straight at her with a smile. "Auntie, you better be careful with your hands. It would be terrible if you accidentally scratched my face. It would be terrible if I got crazy and couldn't control myself and scratched you back twice as hard."

"Wen He, how could you talk to your stepmother like that? Apologize now."

"Excuse me, Dad. I don't have a stepmother. I think calling her auntie is already very polite. What's the matter? Are you really not going to consider my suggestion carefully? Wouldn't a shabby house and 200,000 yuan be enough to solve my problem? Or would you rather I stay? Fine, H is H, but my 'dear sister', you have to clean up your room and let it go quickly~"

Wen He smiled brightly, looking completely harmless, but the faces of the mother and daughter turned pale instantly.

They had worked so hard here for so long, just to prevent Wen He from entering the Gu family! When Gu Zhuer said she wanted to give up her room, she didn't really want to give it up. She just wanted to gain sympathy in front of Gu's father and disgust Wen He. Seeing that Gu's father was about to agree, the mother and daughter were really anxious and couldn't help but pretend to be full of sorrow.

"Forget it, dear, just give it to her. It's only two hundred thousand. If we work hard, we can earn it back in a year or two."

"No, it's not about the money, it's about..."

"I know, dear, I know, but do you think the child likes this home? She doesn't want to stay in this home. It's okay to let Zhu'er suffer. We, mother and daughter, have to work a little harder, but the child doesn't like it. Can you bear to let this child be unhappy?"

If Wen He didn't know what the mother and daughter were thinking, he couldn't help but applaud their acting skills.

And, as expected, Father Gu gave in again. After hesitating for a long time, he finally sighed, asked the housekeeper to bring the title deed of the old house in the suburbs, and signed a check for 200,000 yuan to Wen He.

After getting what he wanted, Wen He didn't hesitate at all. He waved his hand and turned to leave. Father Gu looked at Wen He's back, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something. At this moment, Wen He also stopped, suddenly turned around and looked at Father Gu.

But this time, Wen He didn't smile. Instead, he opened his pair of clear black and white almond-shaped eyes and spoke word by word, "Is there anything else you want to tell me? My father."

Is there anything you want to say? It seems like there are a lot of things you want to say, but all the words are revealed in those black and white almond eyes, and in the end, you can't say a word.

"Since you have nothing to say, then I will say it. My father, this is the last time I will call you my father, Mr. Gu. I hope we will never have anything to do with each other in the future. Finally, I wish you and your family a happy life~"

After saying that, Wen He laughed again, her smile was particularly brilliant, and she hummed a little tune, and happily walked out of the door of the Gu family, which she would probably never step into again.

And at the moment when Wen He's figure disappeared from his sight, Gu's father's heart suddenly buzzed, and he suddenly felt an unknown panic, as if something had been lost forever at that moment.
