Gu Anning was immediately furious and pointed at Gu Changhong, shouting, "What do you mean you don't need to go? You are siblings, not those beasts who have been siblings for years on the surface but have no affection for each other at all."
Gu Yunyang almost rolled his eyes.
The implication behind these words is nothing more than a veiled attack.
In fact, the implication in those words was far too obvious.
Did you think no one could understand?
Well, that's precisely why I'm resorting to veiled insults—because I understand it.
Otherwise, what's the point of this veiled criticism?
Gu Changjun was also taken aback; he hadn't expected Gu Anning to say that.
But soon, a smirk appeared on his face, as if he was about to say something.
His skill in making veiled criticisms was slightly less than Gu Anning's, so he didn't immediately know what to say.
Gu Yunyang said to Gu Hanping, "Captain, I remember there's a kind of bird, what's it called again?"
They lay their own eggs but don't hatch them, instead stealing other people's babies and throwing them away.
It's like throwing your eggs into someone else's bird's nest, hoping that the bird will incubate your chicks and raise your offspring.
What kind of beast was it? I've forgotten for a moment.
How could Gu Hanping not understand Gu Anning's words?
This person is truly speechless.
They did something wrong, but then tried to pin the blame on others.
Do you think you'll become clean by smearing dirt on someone else?
Now, everyone in the Red Flag Brigade knows about the things Gu Anning's family does.
Does he think he can gain any advantage over mere words?
He immediately said, "That beast... let me think... I've completely forgotten about it. Oh right, that beast, um, wasn't it a cuckoo?"
The cuckoo, also known as the common cuckoo bird.
Cuckoos are brood parasites; the female cuckoo lays her own egg in the nest of other birds, such as reed warblers and thrushes.
The host bird will continue to incubate the egg, but once the cuckoo chick hatches, the parent birds will continue to feed it until it grows up.
This behavior can conserve the rhododendron's own energy consumption and increase its reproductive success rate.
This is a natural phenomenon, but when you mention it, it's actually somewhat similar to Gu Anning's behavior.
Gu Anning verbally cursed Gu Yunyang because Gu Yunyang had really disrespected him today, practically trampling on his dignity.
Although Gu Yunyang wasn't wrong, he knew everything in his heart.
But if you've done something wrong, you can't let others talk about it or manipulate you.
He hadn't expected that he would stand on the so-called "righteous cause" to condemn Gu Yunyang, thinking that Gu Yunyang would at least offer some explanation.
After a few back-and-forth exchanges, the relationship can be eased.
To everyone's surprise, Gu Yunyang immediately pointed out this beastly behavior.
Upon hearing Gu Hanping's words, Gu Anning's face naturally turned ashen.
Gu Yunyang continued, "Isn't taking someone else's cub back, not raising it, and then expecting the cub to raise your own family even more beastly than that?"
Gu Hanping nodded through gritted teeth: "Yes, this is simply worse than an animal."
The two of them worked together to completely subdue Gu Anning, labeling her as a beast and worse than a beast.
How could Gu Anning accept this?
But he didn't know how to say it.
Gu Yunyang was clearly not talking to him, but to the brigade leader, Gu Hanping.
Gu Hanping is Gu Yunyang's uncle. The two of them are working together to insult him.
