Chapter 127: Quarrelling with Mrs. Gu
Mr. Gu tried to smooth things over. “Gu Chu, you’re thinking too much. Your mother and I didn’t mean it that way. You haven’t had breakfast yet, right? Come and sit down and eat with us.”
Gu Chu ignored him and continued to ask, “Even if Gu Wan’s disappearance had something to do with me, I was only four years old back then. What do I know? Are you being fair to me by blaming all of this on me?”
If things continued like this, there would definitely be a huge change in the Gu family. Mr. Gu simply wanted to pull her away. “Chu Chu, your mother didn’t mean that. Come with me.”
Gu Chu shook his hand away. “No!”
Mr. Gu could not hold her back. Gu Chu went up to her mother.
“I always thought that you blamed me because you believed Gu Wan’s words. It turns out that it’s not like that. You just don’t like me anymore.”
If it was just because of this, Mrs. Gu would not say things like “She’d gotten too many things that don’t belong to her.”
The things that she had, apart from material things, were relationships. Her parents regretted doting on her. How much did they resent her, or perhaps they hated her, for saying such things?
Gu Chu released her fingers. Her fingertips trembled slightly as they were numb.
If her mother had treated her badly before, she would not be so sad if she treated Gu Wan well after she returned. However, it was obvious that she treated her badly because of Gu Wan.
She had read on the internet that those who said that they didn’t have a good family tend to have low self-esteem and introvertedness. She had also seen that many of her peers had been taught to manage the family business very strictly since they were young.
She was very glad that she was born in the Gu family, and that her parents did not blindly train her to become an heiress.
Moreover, they gave her a lot of love and a lot of confidence, which was why she had her fearless personality now.
The thing that she used to be proud of had turned into something that she did not deserve?
Her mother avoided her hurt gaze and said after a pause, “It’s not that we don’t like you, don’t be too sensitive.”
Gu Wan leaned on her walking stick and said, “Yes, Chu Chu. I still care about you. When you weren’t home, I kept talking about you.”
Gu Chu couldn’t listen at all. She shouted, “You have no right to talk to me!”
Gu Wan subconsciously took a step back. Her mother frowned, “How could you talk to your sister like that?”
“Why should I be polite to a lowly, lying person who might even be a criminal?” Gu Chu snorted coldly.
Her mother looked at her in disappointment. “You came back today to argue with me? Isn’t it enough that you showed off your power in the board meeting?”
Gu Chu hugged the painting in her hand tightly. She was so happy yesterday, but now she is just disappointed. “How much do you know about what happened at the board meeting? She accused me without any evidence. Can’t I even prove my innocence? Do I have to stand there and let her throw mud at me?”
“If there’s a misunderstanding, just clarify it. Why did you ask your sister to leave the Gu Corporation?” Mrs. Gu was also angry, “Your sister is new here. It’s fine if you don’t take care of her, but you still want to make things difficult for her. Aren’t you trying to show off your power? Do you know how upset your sister is because of this? She can’t even eat.”
She sneered, “The reason she has no appetite is not because of this, right?”
Gu Wan was obviously afraid that Shen Shan would expose her!
Thinking of Shen Shan, Gu Chu asked again, “I was attacked by a man at the company. Did you ask about me? She lied at the board meeting and was exposed by me and you blame me? We’re both your daughters. Aren’t you biased by doing this?”
Her throat was dry. She thought it was ridiculous and laughable. “She’s been gone for more than 20 years and this became her get-out-of-jail-free card and my sin?”
But, why?
Gu Chu couldn’t take it anymore, at this moment, she burst out, “Gu Wan being lost was her own fault! She thought that I didn’t remember what happened back then, so she spouted nonsense in front of you, but you didn’t even ask before you convicted me! Is this fair to me?”
Mrs. Gu slammed the table and stood up, extremely angry. “What do you mean? What do you mean she’s lost because she brought it on herself? How much do you know about Gu Wan’s suffering outside? How can you spout nonsense?”
