Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Mrs. Gu probably still remembered how Lin Gantang had been obedient to her and thought that Lin Gangtang wouldn’t answer back. Seeing Lin Gangtang’s reaction, she opened her mouth to rebuke her.
“Mum, shut up! Shuyue came to apologize today. Don’t look if you feel sorry for her. Go back home!” Gu Zhichuan’s tone was very cold.
Mrs. Gu was embarrassed to hear her son lambasting her before outsiders. “Shuyue was scared silly at that time. I can pay for Lin Gantang’s medical expenses, but why did she criticize her like that? She didn’t mean it!”
That was why she wanted to go to the hospital with Gu Zhichuan, afraid that Gu Shuyue would be scolded by others.
Gu Zhichuan did not expect his mother to say something so ambiguous at this time. He flared up. “She’s not wrong? She wasn’t wrong to use someone to block the knife? She was not wrong to provoke a married man? Continue to spoil her. You’ll cry when she becomes lawless one day!”
“She’s your sister, and you’re talking about her like that?” Mrs. Gu said angrily, “Lin Gantang is a treasure. She’s untouchable. Your sister was scared out of her wits by the ruffian. Have you even showed any concern for her?”
Mr. Lin’s expression changed. He couldn’t stand it anymore. He stood up and gestured for them to leave. “Since you’re not wrong, please leave. We don’t need your apology. You don’t want to say it; we don’t want to hear it. Don’t disturb Gantang’s rest again.”
“Mr. Lin, we almost became in-laws back then. Don’t make it so unpleasant.” Mrs. Gu knew that she would lose face if she were chased away versus choosing to leave on her own. Her furrowed eyebrows and darkened expression made her look a little mean. “Shuyue shouldn’t have hidden behind Gantang, but on the streets at that time, she only knew Gantang. Who else could she look to for help if not her?”
“I only know that your daughter is fine now, while my daughter is in the hospital!” Mr. Lin was annoyed. “Since it has already happened, I have no intention of arguing with you about right and wrong. But you keep pushing the blame. Are you trying to say that my daughter deserves it? Serves her right to meet Gu Shuyue by the river?”
Mr. Lin had been in a high position for many years. As soon as he questioned her, Mrs. Gu weakened a little. “That’s not true…”
“Gantang’s life is carefree, but your attitude makes me uncomfortable. I’ll go and look for Gu Guoliang later; is your family still reasonable!” Mr. Lin questioned sternly.
Gu Zhichuan wanted to throw Mrs. Gu out. He was here to apologize, not to make enemies.
He said, “Uncle, calm down. Shuyue was in the wrong. No matter what, Shuyue did put Gantang in danger.”
Gu Zhichuan’s attitude was very good. He sincerely admitted the mistake. Seeing that Mr. Lin’s anger had eased a little, Wen Yanqing sneered. “What’s the use of apologizing? The person who should be apologizing is standing behind you. Are you mute?”
When Mr. Lin heard this, he glanced at Gu Shuyue with an unpleasant expression and no longer had the intention of speaking nicely to Gu Zhichuan.
“I’ve already apologized.” Gu Shuyue was not willing to lower her head in front of Lin Gantang. She had already lost face by apologizing twice earlier.
“Yes, you apologized, so you’re confident. So, what else can you do by coming over, besides adding to our troubles?” Wen Yanqing asked indifferently.
“That’s not our intention,” Gu Zhichuan said.
Wen Yanqing said calmly, “Mr. Gu, it’s useless to manage the company so well. You should pay more attention to your family. You don’t even care about your biological sister. Will you be attentive to your partner in the future?”
He was not polite at all when it came to insulting Gu Zhichuan in front of Mr. Lin.
The most important thing was that Lin Gantang was injured. The anger in his heart would not dissipate so easily..
