The obvious curse made Old Master Zhang’s expression change. The calmness he had been trying his best to maintain was on the verge of collapse at this moment. His jawline tightened, looking like he was about to hit someone in the next second.
Seeing this, Gu Man did not hesitate. She opened the car door and got out. She even stood outside the car to greet Old Master Zhang.
Old Master Zhang wanted to rush out of the car and beat Gu Man up.
Why was this little girl so infuriating?
Gu Man took out her phone in satisfaction and found the private hire app. She called a taxi back.
Since she had a subsidiary of the Zhang Corporation, she did not have to spend any more money to establish a company.
She had a lot of dirt on the Gu family, so this was not a problem. If she could exchange it for higher benefits, she would be glad to see it.
After Old Master Zhang reached a deal with Gu Man, he contacted the Gu family. After the Gu family learned of this news, they finally saw the light and were in a good mood.
The anxiety on Gu Yuan’s face finally subsided a lot. He decided to go out for a family gathering.
Old Madam Gu stopped him at this moment. “No, we should discuss how to bring Gu Man home now.”
The smile on Gu Ron’s face instantly froze. She looked in Old Madam Gu’s direction in disbelief. “Grandma, are you talking about bringing Gu Man back?”
Didn’t Old Madam Gu hate Gu Man the most? Why would she bring her back?
Gu Ron subconsciously looked in Qu Bei’s direction, wanting her help, but Qu Bei was different. Her eyes lit up and she nodded in agreement. “No matter what, Gu Man is still a member of our family. How can we keep letting her stay outside? Wouldn’t that confirm that we abused our adopted daughter?”
The expression on Gu Ron’s face was even more puzzled. She widened her eyes and looked in Qu Bei’s direction in surprise. Why did this person who hated Gu Man the most suddenly agree to Gu Man’s return?
For a moment, Gu Ron felt that she had been deceived. She could only place her last hope on Gu Yuan.
Gu Man had already done something that caused the Gu family’s shares to plummet. Gu Yuan would not still agree to her coming back, right? She looked at Gu Yuan tentatively and said, “Dad, I think Gu Man has done so much…”
But before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Gu Yuan. “I think you’re right. Gu Man is my daughter after all. I can’t let her wander outside.”
Gu Ron’s pupils widened. She could not believe what she had heard. She swallowed her saliva and looked around at the unfamiliar existences.
How could this be? It shouldn’t be like this. Could it be that they were disappointed in her because of this matter?
Gu Ron shook her head desperately, unable to believe that Gu Man should have become the most hated existence in the Gu family. Now, everyone seemed to be welcoming her home.
“Why?” Gu Ron finally asked indignantly. Her eyes were filled with tears. “Why did you let her come back? She clearly made our family like this.”
Old Madam Gu frowned and stared at Gu Ron. “Rou’er, aren’t you very sensible? Besides, you’ve been speaking up for Gu Man previously. Why are you objecting to her coming back now?”
Because of Old Madam Gu’s question, Gu Rou was speechless. She opened her mouth, but she could not say a word.
Gu Ron’s fingertips dug into her palms indignantly, but she still maintained a gentle smile on her face. “Grandma, I just don’t understand. Gu Man has done so many things to hurt the Gu family…”
Halfway through her sentence, Gu Rou paused and lowered her eyelids. A pitiful expression appeared on her face. “I don’t mean to blame Gu Man, but she went overboard. Besides, Dad’s health isn’t good. He can’t be angered by Gu Man anymore.”
Gu Ron’s words were extremely well said. Even Gu Yuan, who was at the side, revealed a gratified expression and advised, “Gu Man went overboard this time. It’s only right that Rou’er doesn’t want her to enter the house. However, since she’s from our Gu family, we naturally have to bring her back so that outsiders won’t laugh at her.”
The expression on Old Madam Gu’s face eased slightly. She looked at Gu Rou kindly. “Rou’er, Grandma didn’t mean to blame you just now. I naturally had my reasons for bringing Gu Man back. She’s already of age. Since she’s caused trouble for the Gu family, I must let her make it up to us..”
