Chapter 36: The Substitute Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Story of Trouble (7)

It was already twenty minutes later when Gu Huai brought Gu's mother back to the living room of the Gu family.

She had been hiding from the reporters for half a day and was so exhausted that she had no strength left. She was helped into the living room by the servant and was about to go upstairs to rest.

At this moment, a gentle voice full of concern broke into Gu's mother's ears.

"Aunt, are you okay? Are you okay?" An Ran walked to the side of Gu's mother.

Mother Gu's tired body seemed to be suddenly injected with countless spiritual powers, and her strength increased instantly. She waved her hand to push the servant away, raised her hand and slapped An Ran in the face.

Mother Gu slapped An Ran left and right, and the slaps fell so fast that An Ran couldn't react in time. She stood there and received more than ten slaps from her.

After comforting the reporters, Gu Huai walked in and saw this scene. "Are you all dead? Why don't you go and stop them?" He first got angry at the servant who was standing next to him and didn't stop Gu's mother.

Mother Gu was pulled away by Gu Huai, staring at An Ran with a murderous gaze, "Don't stop me, I'm going to beat this little bitch to death. She's ruined our family like this, and she still dares to come to our door."

An Ran felt a burning pain on both sides of her cheeks. Tears flowed down her swollen cheeks, and the pain was even more severe, but she felt wronged and could not stop crying.

"Aunt, I was wronged. I went to see my uncle to talk to him about the child and Gu Huai. I don't know why the reporter wrote that."

Gu's mother didn't care what her purpose was, she only looked at the results. As a result, because of her, the Gu family became the laughing stock of City C, and most of the business that Gu had run for many years was ruined.

She broke free from Gu Huai's hand and looked him straight in the eye. "If you still recognize me as your mother, then hand her over to me. If you don't agree, take her with you and get out of this house. I will pretend that I never gave birth to you as my son."

Gu Huai glanced at An Ran hesitantly.

An Ran knew that she would not have a good ending in Gu's mother's hands, so she could only place her last glimmer of hope on the man in front of her.

Her pitiful eyes were full of resistance, and she only begged Gu Huai not to agree to Gu's mother's request.

After a brief silence, An Ran fell to the marble floor with a thud.

How could he do this to herself when she was pregnant with his child!

Mother Gu was very satisfied with Gu Huai's answer and snorted disdainfully at An Ran who was lying on the ground.

"Take her to the attic. It seems no one can open the door for her without my order."

After this incident, Gu Huai's obsession with An Ran was not as strong as before. The reason for his hesitation was only because of the baby in her belly.

If a woman cannot bring help in her career, she must add some fun to her life.

If someone has neither and still brings him trouble, then such a person is not worthy of staying with him.

Now that An Ran had caused trouble, it was obvious that she couldn't give birth to the child. Gu Huai understood and there was no need to stop his mother anymore.

An Ran was locked up in the attic by Gu's mother. She had not had a drop of water for two days. She thought Gu's mother wanted to starve her and the baby in her belly to death.

These past two days, her hands were swollen from knocking on doors, but no one came to answer her.

What An Ran didn’t know was that it wasn’t that no one came to talk to her, but that there was no one left in the Gu family.

On the afternoon of the same day she was locked up, Gu's father was taken away for investigation on suspicion of committing a duty-related crime.

Gu's mother was busy looking for someone to rescue him. Gu Huai had been dealing with the company and shareholders because the board of directors wanted to remove him from the position of president.

More than half of the Gu family's servants left that night, and the remaining few also left in the past two days.

Now An Ran is the only one left in the huge Gu family villa. Just as she thought, no one would know even if she died here.

"What will happen to Gu Huai if she dies? They are so in love, how can I bear to separate them?" Mu Yan looked at An Ran's heartbroken expression on the screen.

Wan Zai: "so..."

Mu Yan: "So, I'm going to let her out."

An Ran was lying on the bed. When she heard a loud noise coming from the door, she shuddered with fright and subconsciously turned her head to look at the door.

The white solid wooden door collapsed to the ground.

Wanzai: "Just open the door, do you really have to kick the whole door down?"

Mu Yan crossed her arms over her chest and said seriously, "Be quiet. I'm afraid she won't hear it."

Maruzai: ...Then wouldn't it be better if you didn't hide and just walked up and said hello?

Anran waited for a long time, but no one came in. She quietly got off the bed and walked to the door. Seeing that there was no one, her instinct for survival made her run.

When she ran to the living room, she realized that no one was at the Gu family. Without thinking, she opened the door and ran to the yard.

When he reached the gate, he was blocked by reporters.

Gu Huai used the empire he had built for the Gu Group over the years to negotiate with the old men on the board of directors. After two days of talks, he only got a result of considering it.

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Chen wants you to go to the conference room now," the assistant came in and said.

Gu Huai straightened his collar and strode towards the meeting room.

"Gu Huai, we are officially notifying you that you are fired. You must leave Gu's company immediately."

"This is the result of your consideration," Gu Huai was furious. "Without me, Gu Huai, the Gu Group would not have achieved what it has today. If you say you want to fire me now, I will fire you. How can such a good thing happen in this world?"

"Humph, you still dare to bring up your poor performance. Gu's company is almost bankrupted by you, and you still have the nerve to bring it up."

After the director finished speaking, he picked up the remote control on the table and turned on the TV on the wall to show him.

"That night, Gu Huai's father forced me to go find him. He said if I didn't go, he would beat Gu Huai to death."

"Gu Huai is the father of the child in my belly. I love him. I can't watch him being beaten to death. I can only go find his father."

An Ran was dressed in white, which made her face look even paler. Standing in front of a group of guns and cannons, she looked particularly petite and pitiful.

Even if the Gu family wanted to kill her, she wouldn't let them have an easy time. Anyway, her reputation was already ruined, so what did she have to be afraid of?

"Ms. An, when did you and Mr. Gu start having this abnormal relationship? What's going on between you and Mr. Gu? Does Mrs. Gu know about this?" the sharp-tongued reporter asked questions one after another.

An Ran lowered her head and was silent for a while. "I have liked Gu Huai since I was a child. Director Gu has many lovers outside, and Madam Gu can't keep him. Seeing that he pays special attention to me, she sent me to Director Gu's bed."

…

Gu Huai looked at the black screen of the TV, took a step back in disbelief, sat down on the chair behind him, and whispered, "It's not true, what An Ran said is not true."

"I don't care whether it's true or not. I just know that once this news came out, Gu's stock price almost hit the lower limit," the director waved to the bodyguard standing at the door.
