As soon as they left the villa, Gu Yao revealed a pitiful expression. He squatted by the roadside like a pitiful dog and looked up slightly. “Gu Zheng, Qiao Xi, am I really not Mom’s son? I originally thought that she just didn’t like me, but it turns out we’re not related by blood.

“Then tell me, whose child am I? Gu Zheng, I previously guessed that you’re Eldest Miss Lu’s son. But who’s my mother? Perhaps I’m not even a child of the Gu family. Perhaps I’m not your biological younger brother!”

Qiao Xi’s heart ached. Huang Lilan had planned for many years and deliberately led Gu Yao astray, letting the entire Li City know that Gu Yao was a good-for-nothing. Gu Yao was born smart, so he pretended to be a good-for-nothing. However, he had been secretly learning. He was really a genius to be able to maintain his true heart in the Gu family.

Looking at Gu Yao’s sad appearance now, Qiao Xi’s heart ached. She went forward and patted his head to comfort him. “Gu Yao…”

“Does it really matter whether you’re from the Gu family or not?” Gu Zheng said slowly, “No matter whose son you are, you’re still my younger brother. This can’t be changed. You should be happy to have lost a mother like Huang Lilan.”

Hearing Gu Zheng’s words, Gu Yao’s eyes lit up. “Gu Zheng, do you really think so? You won’t abandon me, right? Then I won’t embarrass you. I have to pull myself together. Anyway, I’ve never wanted a mother like Huang Lilan. Now, my wish has been fulfilled!”

Qiao Xi: “…” The little puppy who was still heartbroken a second ago instantly seemed to be happy again. It seemed that Gu Yao and Huang Lilan really did not have any feelings for each other.

At this moment, the birthday banquet in the Gu family’s old residence had not ended. The guests were all staying in the Gu family’s residence. Without Gu Zheng’s permission, no one dared to leave first, lest they offended Old Madam Gu and Gu Zheng.

Originally, this birthday banquet was supposed to last for three days. However, such a shocking thing happened the next morning. It almost made Huang Lilan faint. No one knew what else would happen tomorrow.

Qiao Xi and Gu Zheng returned to Maple Garden. Gu Yao naturally would not return to the main residence. He went to Old Madam Gu’s courtyard to rest.

Gu Yao also knew very well that the old madam wanted him to calm down and think about why Huang Lilan did this. Perhaps it was to consolidate her status previously, but now, it was to let him set off Lu Yan.

If Gu Zheng had not pulled him out of the quagmire in time, he would have long become a chess piece in Huang Lilan’s hands. What would happen to an arrogant hedonistic son in the end? Huang Lilan had long paved the way for him. If he was lucky, he would live his life peacefully. If he was unlucky, he might die one day. In short, he would never threaten Lu Yan’s status.

For the past 20 years, Huang Lilan’s actions had been full of schemes. The small amount of love she showed him was only for the sake of the plan. Since Huang Lilan was so cruel to him, why should he care about their relationship as mother and son?

…

On the other hand, Huang Lilan returned to the main residence. When she entered, she saw Shen Ying standing upstairs and ordering the servants to pack their things. She looked like the mistress of the house.

Huang Lilan shouted in exasperation, “Shen Ying! Who let you stay here?”

At this moment, Shen Ying gradually felt the benefits of being Gu Weiming’s woman. Although Gu Weiming was a little old, he was still the former head of the Gu family. He had huge wealth and power.

On the surface, the Shen family was a noble family, but they were far inferior to the Gu family. They had no money or connections. They only had a reputation and were useless.

She could not marry Gu Zheng, but she became the woman Gu Weiming doted on. Actually, this felt good. She was rich and had a high status now. She was much better than when she was groveling!

Shen Ying smiled indifferently. “Sister, of course, it was Brother Weiming who asked me to move in! He has already agreed to let me stay by his side and serve him. Weren’t you also present today?

“Don’t worry, I won’t threaten your position. You and Brother Weiming will still stay in the master bedroom. I’ll stay in the second bedroom next door. I won’t fight with you. In the future, the two of us will work together to serve Brother Weiming. We—”

Smack!

Huang Lilan slapped Shen Ying hard and interrupted her. Then, she gritted her teeth and roared, “B*tch! Don’t call me ‘Sister’! You b*tch, are you worthy of being my sister?”
