Chapter 625: The Extent of Being Cheap
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Tianxin greeted her big brother carefully while Aunt Gu looked at Gu Tianmu with an unreadable expression.
Ye Yuwei realized that she might have discovered another feud within the Gu family.
Aunt Gu was around the same age as Gu Tianmu, and the way Aunt Gu looked at him really made Ye Yuwei doubt her mother’s taste back then. It was definitely worse than her, at least Gu Juexi wouldn’t fall for someone’s stepmother.
“I am indeed an outsider to the Gu family, Mr. Gu, but that is because Gu Juexi is an outsider too. Gu Juexi and I are both outsiders to the Gu family,” said Ye Yuwei emotionlessly as she excluded the two of them from this drama. “Applying the same theory, the son of Gu Juexi and I would also be an outsider to the Gu family. Is that clear?”
Gu Tianmu narrowed his eyes at Ye Yuwei. “I know you have a glib tongue, Ye Yuwei, but Gu Juexi is not a wuss. Do you think he can stay out of this just because you hide him behind your back?”
Gu Tianmu sounded like he was threatening Ye Yuwei.
“I disagree, Brother. You didn’t say anything when Gu Juexi separated from the family back then,” Gu Tianxin said as she looked up at Gu Tianmu. “Now that Brother is going to him for the inheritance, isn’t it obvious that you are just using him? How cruel of you to do that.”
The words Gu Tianxin used were harsh.
“Are you done? Fight between yourselves all you want, but don’t come and disturb us for that,” Ye Yuwei said quietly, sounding upset.
She wished that they could leave this place right now.
“Open the door, Ye Yuwei. Let them in.” Gu Juexi’s voice came from behind the door.
Ye Yuwei shuddered when she heard Gu Juexi. She pursed her lips and looked at the people in front of her viciously. “I believe in karma. Whoever gets the inheritance, I hope you have the chance to enjoy it,” Ye Yuwei snarled menacingly before she opened the door and went inside the house.
In the house, Xixi was eating alone at the dining table while Gu Juexi was sitting on the couch emotionlessly.
Ye Yuwei pursed her lips and observed Gu Juexi’s facial expression carefully. She then walked towards the dining table and helped Xixi with her food.
Gu Tianmu sat opposite Gu Juexi, while the two women sat aside together.
“Juexi.” The first to talk was Gu Tianxin, and it was obvious that she was trying to please Gu Juexi when she talked to him. “Aunt is doing this for your own good, I don’t want you to be used.”
“Please watch what you are calling yourself, Miss Gu. I don’t remember having an aunt,” said Gu Juexi coldly and watched as Gu Tianxin’s face darkened. He then looked at Aunt Gu and Gu Tianmu and said, “The inheritance is from the old man’s estate. Shouldn’t you be pleasing the old man? Why are you here at my place? Are you plotting to gain from my estate too?”
“Watch your words, Gu Juexi,” said Gu Tianmu sternly.
Gu Juexi was not all bothered by Gu Tianmu. That so-called father had meant nothing to him for a long time.
“Do you need me to remind you of your relations.h.i.+p with this Miss Ai, Gu Tianmu? And Miss Ai, how does it feeling to be serving both father and son? It is quite rare that I come across a woman this cheap, Miss Ai.”
“Gu Juexi!” Gu Tianmu stood up and raised his hand as if wanting to slap Gu Juexi.
