☆、Chapter 16 Inside Story
Gu Ran: [Unlike Third Aunt, who couldn't have children herself and had to adopt a daughter, she only waited for Sun Miao to marry into a wealthy family.]
Gu Ran: [When her husband was incompetent, Third Aunt was unhappy. Now that he is competent, Third Aunt is uneasy again. She quarrels with Third Uncle at home all day long. It would be strange if she is not twisted.]
However, these experiences cannot be a reason for Gu's mother to forgive Aunt Mei San.
She never expected that her beloved sister would have so many dirty thoughts behind her back. Besides disappointment, she also felt alert.
If she hadn't heard what Gu Ran said, she would have misunderstood Gu's father in the future.
Mother Gu had been able to keep the huge family business thriving for so many years and she was never a saint. She reached out and pulled Mei Yan up from the sofa and asked in a cold voice.
"Answer me, are you out of things to say? Can't you think of any excuses?"
The incident happened suddenly. Mei Yan never expected such a turn of events to happen. Her mind was in a mess and she couldn't think of any excuse.
The surveillance video board was a sure thing. What could she say? She couldn't just say she wanted to feel the softness of the Gu family's double bed...
And what about the lip print?
"I, I, I, I..." Mei Yan stuttered anxiously. Unable to explain, she could only play the family card and immediately used her best skills to act pitiful.
"Sister, don't be angry with me. I just...I was just possessed by a ghost for a moment. I really didn't mean anything else."
"Bewitched?" Mother Gu laughed in anger, grabbing her wrist and pulling her forward. "Whether you are possessed by a ghost or have planned this for a long time, you know best!"
"Mei Yan, I've told you before that you can tell me anything. Whatever you want, I will help you as long as I can. Have I ever treated you unfairly since you were little?"
"I didn't expect that after all these years you would raise such an ungrateful person. You really disappoint me!"
Mother Gu let go of Mei Yan's wrist and pointed in the direction of the door.
"Go away, and don't come here again. I'll just pretend I don't have a sister like you."
"Sister, I really didn't mean it. Do you really not want me as your sister?" Mei Yan squeezed out a few tears pitifully and looked at Mother Gu with red eyes.
Although she really fed the dog, Gu's mother would not blame herself and look for the reason in herself. She knew very well whose fault it was.
She is not a saint who would forgive everything.
Mei Yan had been using the trick of pretending to be pitiful since she was a child, but in the past, those were all minor mistakes that were not serious at all.
now…
Mother Gu chuckled, her eyes showing some pity, but she was not shaken at all.
"You were the one who didn't want me as your sister first. I never thought that all these years of helping you in every way would make you so resentful!"
"Help her in every way?" Seeing that Gu's mother was serious, Mei Yan no longer compromised. Her eyes, which were full of tears a second ago, were now filled with anger and jealousy.
"Giving me some jewelry you don't want and giving me hundreds of thousands of dollars in pocket money is helping me in every way?"
"What kind of help is this?"
"Everyone knows that the Gu family is second only to the Bai family in this city. You are so rich, and you know that I am not doing well in the Sun family, but you are reluctant to give me even a few million. Do you call this being good to me?"
Gu Ran: [Good fellow, you're just blaming me! Hundreds of thousands of pocket money are still not enough. I couldn't even make hundreds of thousands a year in my previous life!]
Gu Ran: [If there's a good sister who's willing to give me hundreds of thousands of dollars in pocket money a year, I wouldn't let her go even if I were a ghost... Oh, no, even if I were a ghost, I'd want to be her slave. I'll never forget her kindness!]
"You know very well that I can't count on anything in the Sun family. I only have one adopted daughter, Xiao Miao, who I raised since she was a child. Xiao Miao is my closest hope!" Mei Yan became more and more excited as she spoke, and was even a little hysterical. She rushed over, pulled Sun Miao up from the sofa, and pushed her in front of Gu's mother.
"I taught her so well, she's graceful, gentle and sensible, how on earth is she not worthy of Gu Ximing?"
"I've mentioned this to you so many times, but you always change the subject. Not only do you despise me, you even despise the daughter I raised!"
"Yes! Everyone in your Gu family is noble. You are noble, and Gu Ximing is noble too. You are all very noble people! How can you look down on people from our Sun family? Even this mentally retarded little daughter is superior in your eyes..."
Mei Yan pointed angrily in Gu Ran's direction, and the battle shifted.
Mother Gu couldn't bear to listen any longer and interrupted her harshly, "Shut up!"
What she couldn't tolerate most was others bullying Gu Ran or saying anything bad about him.
Mother Gu took a deep breath and said to the housekeeper, "Housekeeper Lin, please ask Madam Sun and Miss Sun to leave."
From the moment the atmosphere became tense, Butler Lin had already prepared himself mentally and had secretly called the two security guards to wait outside the door.
At this moment, with a command, two security guards strode in and held Mei Yan, who was struggling, on the left and right.
Since the relationship had already been torn apart, Mei Yan simply lost all shame and made a fuss, refusing to leave. Her arms were held up and her feet were kicking in the air.
"I won't leave. Why are you chasing me away? I..."
"Ugh..." Sun Miao suddenly covered his mouth and vomited with a pale face.
Mei Yan's struggle was interrupted, and everyone else was stunned.
No matter how wrong Mei Yan was, it was her own business. Mother Gu was not the kind of person who would vent her anger on others. Seeing Sun Miao covering his mouth and retching, and looking not very well, she stepped forward and showed concern.
"Xiao Miao, are you okay? Are you feeling unwell somewhere? Should I ask the family doctor to come and take a look at you?"
"No, no." Sun Miao retched in nausea and waved his hands repeatedly, as if he was afraid that Gu's mother would call a doctor.
"No, I probably just ate something bad. I'll be fine after taking some medicine when I get home."
She looks like a little white flower being persecuted, which inevitably makes people suspicious.
Gu Ran couldn't help but become suspicious.
[Could it be that Sun Miao vomited because of Third Aunt's disgust?]
[It's very possible. After all, this Third Aunt is really disgusting.]
[But why was Sun Miao afraid that Gu Ma would call a doctor? Was she afraid that Third Aunt wouldn't allow her to? Wasn't Third Aunt often beating and scolding her adopted daughter behind her back?]
[System, can you check what's going on? Is there some hidden plot I'm not aware of?]
Gu Ran was determined to rescue the lonely girl, so he quickly asked the system to verify.
It was only at this moment that Gu's mother discovered that there was another system in Gu Ran's mind.
But the matter was urgent and she didn't have time to think about it. She looked at Gu Ran eagerly, waiting for the answer from the so-called system.
[What! ]
Gu Ran suddenly screamed in his heart.
[Pregnant?]
[You're not serious, are you? Didn't Third Aunt always want to introduce Sun Miao to my Third Brother? Isn't he the one who was raised in luxury and is well-behaved and sensible?]
[So Sun Miao already has a boyfriend? When did it start? It looks like Third Auntie doesn't know yet.]
