Moreover, Huang Jun did not want Gu Man to work so hard from the bottom of his heart. Every time he thought of how Gu Man had to endure humiliation and stay in the Gu family, his heart would ache especially. He hated himself for not having the ability.
However, this was also an indisputable fact. Perhaps in a few years, they would completely rise, but even so, the Gu family would not stay in place. It seemed that no matter what, they would not be able to catch up to the Gu family. Instead of suffering losses with the Gu family, it was better to maintain the current situation and cherish the people around them.
If Huang Jun knew about Gu Man’s situation in the Gu family, he would probably not have such thoughts. However, he did not know. In his heart, Gu Man was the one who had suffered. As her uncle, he was helpless. He did not even have the ability to protect the younger generation.
Gu Man looked at Huang Jun’s guilty expression and moved her lips. “Actually, Uncle, have you ever thought that I’m the scourge in the Gu family’s eyes?” When Huang Jun heard this, he frowned and almost subconsciously retorted, “How is that possible? If you really turned the Gu family upside down, why would they still let you stay there? You don’t have to lie because you’re afraid we’ll be worried.”
When Gu Man heard this, she felt even more helpless. In this day and age, she would be questioned even when she told the truth. She could only honestly explain everything that had happened in the Gu family, including the “good intentions” of the Gu family.
When the three of them heard this, shock appeared on their faces, but then anger surged.
Grandma’s eyes were red. “The Gu family has gone too far. They actually have such thoughts. Manman, let’s not suffer there. Come back. Isn’t it just the Gu family? At most, we’ll fight to the death.”
“I haven’t gotten my mother’s villa yet. I can’t come back for the time being. Besides, their plan might not go so smoothly,” Gu Man said.
Huang Jun’s face was filled with disapproval. “This is too risky for you. After all, the Gu family is united. You’ve always been a chess piece that they can use.”
Gu Man had no choice but to use Xiang Yin’s identity. “Grandma, Uncle, with Xiang Yin around, I won’t marry that person. Don’t worry.”
Grandma and Huang Jun did not have a good impression of Xiang Yin, but if they were to compare him to Old Master Li, they would rather Gu Man marry Xiang Yin. At this moment, their expressions were complicated, but they did not say anything else.
Grandma nodded and sighed. She held Gu Man’s hand. “It’s a pity that I don’t have much ability and can’t support you.”
“Grandma, you can’t say that. It’s because of you that 1 dare to do it.” Gu Man shook her grandmother’s hand.
Grandma and Huang Jun both knew that Gu Man had already grown to a height that they could not reach. She was also a child with her own opinions. They did not interfere too much in her plan, but sometimes, they would inevitably hate themselves for not having the strength to help Gu Man in the plan.
“Manman, my words are unpleasant, but no one will help you unconditionally, not to mention that the other party is from the four major families. Although we hate him, we have to admit that he’s outstanding in all aspects. We’re worried that he has a plan to get close to you. Sigh, it’s all Uncle’s fault for not being capable and letting you rely on others.” Huang Jun clenched his fists tightly as he spoke.
Gu Man was in a daze. Xiang Yin’s figure instantly appeared in her mind.
Her uncle was wrong. Xiang Yin would help her unconditionally.
For some reason, she was very confident about this. She did not even doubt it at all.
However, she naturally could not say this out loud. Hence, she looked at her uncle. “Uncle, I’ve already said it just now. You’re here to give me confidence and let me dare to go against the Gu family. How can you say that you don’t have the ability?”
Huang Jun opened his mouth, but he did not know what to say. He could only smile and nod.
“Sister, you haven’t said why you left me in school during the last exam. After I came out, I waited at the school gate until it was dark!” Huang Jue felt the heavy atmosphere in the air. He didn’t like this atmosphere very much, so he jumped out to break the dreary environment..
