There was a long pause before Gu Jinxuan finally said, “I understand. Thank you, Second Cousin. This matter must not go any further. I will deal with it immediately.”
Gu Jinhang agreed and hung up.
In the study, Gu Jinfeng was looking at him. “Little Five… It looks like I’ve missed out on a lot while I was away!”
Gu Jinhang laughed. “That boy, Little Five, has really surprised me. But his nature is like that of us Gus, so it’s not unexpected. The boy has just been spoilt. But he’s not stupid at all.”
Gu Jinhang breathed out a long sigh. “That Little Five! Let’s see how he deals with it. Perhaps this child will turn out to be more capable than Number Three!”
Gu Jinfeng raised his brows. He looked rather expectant.
Over at Third Uncle’s house, Gu Jinxuan hung up and turned around only to find that the entire room was looking at him.
He suddenly laughed. This time, he really admired his mother. He had misjudged her!
“My mother has recently sought out a dozen wealthy ladies and borrowed money from them. They’re all women who wish to build connections with the Gu family or Mo family, and they really lent her the money. She borrowed thirty-two thousand yuan in total and sent thirty thousand yuan back to her family. Second Cousin already has a list of names.
“Mother, you’re really amazing!”
Little Seven and Little Eight gaped!
Gu Yundong and Gu Jinlin looked at Zhou Ping. They never thought that she would have the guts to do such a thing.
The house was unnaturally quiet. Zhou Ping grew uneasy. “L. I only borrowed some money. You refused to give me money, so I had to find my own solution. I’ll just return it slowly.”
Gu Yundong looked at Zhou Ping. “Don’t you even care about Little Seven and Little Eight?”
Thirty thousand yuan. If they saved their entire family’s salary, who knows how many years they would have to save up to obtain that sum. Did the woman have any sense of money?
Zhou Ping said angrily, “In what way am I not caring about Little Seven and Little Eight? They’re my sons. I’ve worked so hard to raise them, of course I care for them.”
Gu Yundong did not feel like saying anything. He just could not make her understand.
The entire living room was quiet for a long time. It was Gu Jinxuan who broke the silence first. He said to Gu Yundong, “Father, divorce her! Sign the papers immediately. I’ll buy a train ticket and send her back to the Zhou family.”
His words were like a bomb, and the sound of its explosion rang in everyone’s ears.
Little Seven and Little Eight looked like they were about to cry.
“Little Five. ” Gu Jinlin could not accept it either. No matter how terrible his mother was, she was still his mother. It was almost the new year. To suddenly divorce…
“Why hesitate?” Gu Jinxuan said, “A person like that is not suitable to remain in a family like the Gus. Power is bad for her. It will only harm her.
“She’s lazy, greedy, and stupid. If you don’t divorce her, she’ll be our downfall.”
“Gu Jinxuan!” Zhou Ping screamed. “Are you crazy? I’m your mother!”
“Have you ever treated us like your sons?”
“In what way have I wronged you? I’ve raised you, and all of you are pampered young men. In what way have I wronged you? Now you want your father to divorce me? Gu Jinxuan, you heartless creature. You… you… I’ll beat you to death!”
Divorce had never occurred to Zhou Ping. Actually, after being married for so many years, she had never considered the possibility of divorce, even though Gu Yundong was deeply unhappy with her for giving money to her family.
Gu Yundong’s family background was so good. She would never find anyone as outstanding.
Besides that, she felt that divorce was very shameful, so Zhou Ping had never considered divorce.
