130 The Gu Family’s Wails
Mrs. Zhou ignored the pleading of Gu Yuan, Qu Bei, and the others to stay. In the end, she still left the Gu Family firmly.
Mrs. Zhang also suggested that they leave together. When they left, she even took Zhang Yue away with the excuse of sending her back.
Before Zhang Yue left, he glanced at Gu Rou and left without hesitation.
Seeing this, Gu Rou’s heart turned cold. The misunderstanding from talking to Gu Man last night had just improved a little today, and now this.
Moreover, these words came from Mrs. Zhou’s mouth and could not be questioned.
This time, Zhang Yue would definitely not listen to her explanation so easily. Thinking of this, Gu Rou hated Gu Man even more.
After Mrs. Zhou and the others left, the Gu family, which had been very lively just now, fell silent.
Gu Man knew that this silence was like the silence before a storm.
Sure enough, Gu Rou immediately cried and asked sternly, “Gu Man, why do you hate me so much? How did I offend you that you have to put me in this state?”
Gu Man snorted coldly.
Gu Rou was clearly the one who was vain and carried her bag. That was how she caused this trouble. Now, she was accusing her of putting her in this state. How shameless.
Qu Bei also shouted, “Gu Man, Gu Rou usually treats you so well, but at the critical moment, you made Gu Rou embarra.s.s herself in front of everyone. How can the Gu family have an ingrate like you?!”
“Gu Man, kneel down and apologize to your sister,” Gu Yuan said in a low voice.
Everyone looked at Gu Man, but Gu Man seemed to be watching a show. She stood at the side with her arms crossed and ignored Gu Yuan’s words.
Gu Man snorted in her heart. Kneel down and apologize? Why? Just because they had more people?
It was really hard for him to think of it.
“Gu Man, are you deaf? Kneel down and admit your mistake. Not only did you embarra.s.s your sister today, you also delayed your cousin’s enrollment. It’s already benevolent of me to ask you to kneel down and apologize.” Old Madam Gu slammed her walking stick on the ground, making a loud thud.
Enroll her cousin? So they still wanted Mrs. Zhou to recommend them. No wonder she greeted them so warmly.
Shameless! However, this was really something the Gu family could do.
“I didn’t do anything wrong. Don’t even think about asking me to apologize.” Gu Man sneered.
“Gu Man, if Zhang Yue has any misunderstanding about Gu Rou, I’ll fight you to the death!” Qu Bei said fiercely.
As soon as Qu Bei finished speaking, Gu Zhi wailed again, “Aiyo, my poor Yao’er. You could have gone to the best high school in Han City to study, but now you’re going back to the village to be pointed at by others. You might as well not study anymore.”
When Zhong Yao heard Gu Zhi’s words, she started to cry. “I want to study. Cousin Gu Man, I beg you. Tell that madam that I don’t want to go back to the village. I want to study at Han City First High.”
Instantly, the Gu family wailed. Those who didn’t know better would think that the Gu family was at a funeral.
Gu Man frowned. How noisy.
Seeing that Gu Man not only had no intention of apologizing, but also looked impatient, Gu Yuan’s eyes turned red with anger, as if he was about to pounce on Gu Man and slap her.
Old Madam Gu roared, “That’s enough. I’m not dead yet. Why are you guys crying and howling?”
Gu Zhi and the others were so frightened by Old Madam Gu that they immediately fell silent.
“You only know how to cry. What’s the use of crying?” Old Madam Gu said in a low voice.
“Mom, we didn’t want to either, but you saw Gu Man’s att.i.tude. She was determined not to admit her mistake. I’m not her biological mother. We can’t even hit or scold her. We can only cry that we’re useless.”
Qu Bei’s words forced Gu Yuan, her biological father, and Old Madam Gu, her biological grandmother, to scold Gu Man.
When Old Madam Gu heard this, she slapped her walking stick while facing Gu Man and said, “Gu Man, call Mrs. Zhou immediately and explain the matter of the bag. Also, beg Mrs. Zhou to recommend Yao’er to Han City First High School.”
“Ha, what if I don’t?” Gu Man sneered. What an arrogant family.
“If you don’t do it, then get out of the Gu family quickly.” Old Madam Gu slammed her walking stick again, as if she had made the final decision.
“Oh, is that so? Aren’t you afraid of losing your status as a philanthropist after I leave the Gu Family?” Gu Man asked slowly without any panic.
“You don’t have to worry. If you don’t explain the two things that your grandmother said just now, get lost from the Gu Family tomorrow,” Gu Yuan said coldly.
Qu Bei also shouted, “Since you don’t want the Gu family to be well, you should have gotten lost from the Gu family long ago. If I were you, I would be too embarra.s.sed to stay here.”
Gu Rou lowered her head and smiled gloatingly.
