Chapter 591: Gu Man’s Visit
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xiang Yin looked at Gu Man’s back and smiled helplessly, but there was still an indulgent smile on his face.
When Gu Man returned home, she saw an unexpected person.
Huang Jun sat on the sofa with an embarra.s.sed expression, and Gu Rou sat beside him.
Gu Rou had an obedient smile on her face. When she saw Gu Man return, she tucked her hair behind her ear and stood up. “Sister, I’ve waited for you for so long. You’re finally back.”
Gu Man frowned fiercely and sized Gu Rou up. “Why are you here?”
“I had nothing to do and was just strolling around here. 1 didn’t expect to meet your relatives. Sister, this is your fault. Why didn’t you bring them back for us to take a look?” Gu Rou even smiled as she looked in Huang Jun’s direction before looking at her grandmother.
However, the disdain in her eyes made her words unconvincing.
Perhaps because Gu Rou was still young, Grandma and Huang Jun did not look disgusted or chase her away. Their faces were filled with forbearance.
Gu Man naturally did not believe Gu Ron’s words. The Gu family had probably specially sent a familiar-looking person to try to start with her grandmother and Huang Jun.
“The Gu family is in the east of the city and we’re in the west. You’re really free,” Gu Man mocked.
Gu Rou curled her lips indifferently. “Sister, no matter what, you’re a member of the Gu family. I’ll be sad if you say that.”
Gu Rou did not take it to heart at all because in her eyes, Gu Man’s reputation was about to be ruined, so she did not argue with her.
“Get lost.” Gu Man did not have that much patience with Gu Rou. Her eyes were cold, and her gaze was like a blade stabbing at Gu Rou. At this moment, the two of them faced each other silently.
Gu Rou subconsciously looked away. The next second, she looked up in frustration. “Gu Man, I spoke to you nicely, but you used such a tone. You’re really not as polite as your family.”
“You clearly know that I hate you, but you still came to get a scolding. Aren’t you asking for it?” Gu Man pressed on step by step and quickly stood in front of Gu Rou. Her tall figure made it easy for her to look down at Gu Rou.
Gu Rou looked up slightly, as if she felt that her aura was suppressed. She pulled back and stopped beating around the bush with Gu Man. “I’m here to tell you that you’re thinking about those crooked things. The Gu family is your only backer. If you want to establish yourself in the upper-cla.s.s society, you should hold on to the Gu family tightly.”
When Grandma and Huang Jun heard this, they subconsciously looked at Gu Rou and then at Gu Man. Only then did they suddenly realize that the Gu family probably did not know about the relationship between the Cui family and Gu Man, so they were talking nonsense.
However, they did not intend to tell the Gu family because they were rushing to give them the opportunity to curry favor, lest they used these to tie Gu Man up.
The two of them did not know what was happening on the Internet. They only subconsciously wanted to hide the relationship between the Cui family and them, so when they heard this, they only remained silent.
Huang Jue, who was sitting at the side, looked up at Gu Rou. “What crooked way? I think it’s your Gu family that thinks of crooked ways all day.”
His childish words carried no harm. There were not many twists and turns in his mind. He only knew that his sister had been scolded and he wanted to scold her back.
“Young lady, although we’ve been tolerating you, we can’t see you slandering our Manman casually.” Huang Jue stood up, making Huang Jun feel ashamed and uneasy.
They were still overcautious, but they did not realize that their most beloved Manman was being pointed at and scolded.
Only then did Grandma react. Her eyes were filled with anger. “What are you saying, little girl? If you say such ugly words again, we won’t welcome you here.”
Gu Rou looked at how everyone was protecting Gu Man and couldn’t help but bite her lower lip. She didn’t even have such treatment in the Gu family and had to pretend to be abnormally obedient to obtain the admiration of others.. But why was there someone protecting Gu Man when Gu Man didn’t do anything?
