Chapter 1148: Loving The Wrong Person (1)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Cold and determined, Mu Lingshi’s tone sounded like cold, sharp needles to Gu Qiwu’s ears. However, it only made him feel numb.
Sometimes, she would really have rather never found out the truth. That way, she could at least have been left with some sense of delusion which would have been better than the father and daughter being enemies right now.
“Lingshi, I let you down, but please don’t have such huge biases towards them, especially your mother. At least, she loved you. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have given birth to you and Lingtian. I’m the one who let all of you down.” Gu Qiwu took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the waves in his heart as he spoke raspily.
“Stop it with the crocodile tears. Don’t you know that I find it disgusting to see you like this? I’m pretty sure a woman who you kicked aside after you messed with her is worthless to you, so you don’t have to defend her. I think that my mother was quite dumb. How could she have fancied you? She was the Mu family’s beloved daughter, a superstar, but she abandoned herself and followed you. If I could choose, I would much rather I was never born. That way, Brother wouldn’t be where he is now, and Grandmother would still be alive. It’s a grave sin.”
“Enough, Lingshi! It was all my fault. Your mother’s pa.s.sed away. Why do you have to say such things about her? I admit that all these years, I owe you all too much. Your mother was only considering it from my perspective.”
“She considered things from your perspective, but have you ever thought about things from hers? Gu Qiwu, you don’t deserve it too! You’ve sinned, so one day you will have to pay and I’m looking forward to your terrible end.”
“Miss Mu is right. When one has sinned, he will have to pay! Doesn’t that mean that your so-called brother should also be repaying us for something?”
Mu Lingshi had just finished when a crisp and stern voice came from behind them. Subconsciously, she turned to look.
Dressed in a lilac cotton dress with an exquisitely beautiful face and the mannerisms of en elegant woman, who else could it be but Gu Lingsha?
Gu Lingsha was walking unhurriedly towards Mu Lingshi. There was a hint of calmness and disdain in her smile as she stared at Mu Lingshi coldly. Her eyes were filled cynicism.
Mu Lingshi’s expression instantly sank!
Gu Lingsha was her sister from the same father but a different mother!
The fact that the two of them were related in that manner was absurd enough. What was even more absurd was that Mu Lingtian had liked this woman back then!
“Repay you? What a joke! What has my brother done to you? Like mother, like daughter. You betrayed my brother first, and now you’re speaking as if my brother let you down. Gu Lingsha, human skin is only so thick, but I didn’t think that the thickness of your face was worth studying!”
Mu Lingshi was not afraid of Gu Lingsha. She had not liked her for a while now since all sorts of misfortune and unhappiness were largely related to her!
“Actually, women like you are the most annoying. You’re always in two minds about things. Back then, my brother was already happy to let you and Qi Feng get together, but you thought that you were the Virgin Mary loved by all. Nevertheless, I do admit that you are a sacred green tea b*tch1. Did you really think that with your looks, my brother would fancy you? Take a look in the mirror. You flirted with Qi Feng and Qi Lei, and even Lingtian was used by you. In the end, you even tried to get a share of my brother although you didn’t know that right from the start, I already thought that you don’t suit him!”
“You…watch what you say!” Gu Lingsha’s expression instantly turned gloomy.
“Besides that, back when my brother agreed to the marriage contract, I objected to it. I even told my mother that you don’t suit him.”
“Whether or not I suit him isn’t up to you.”
“A self-conscious person is much better. I already didn’t like you the first time I saw you. Luckily, my views haven’t changed all these years. Mu Lingtian died because of you. Have you made up for it by killing yourself? No, you pushed all the blame onto my brother. Only you would be capable of that, Gu Lingsha!”
Gu Qiwu could not bear listening to this, so he shouted, “Enough, Lingshi, no need to keep going on about it!”
Mu Lingshi shrugged with nonchalance. “What differential treatment. Your son died because of your daughter. Why don’t you look sad at all? If I had a daughter like this, I’d die of shame. Gu Qiwu, your life is tragic!”
“Mu Lingshi, watch your words!” Gu Lingsha screamed with a stormy expression.
Mu Lingshi sneered apathetically at the two of them, turned to a side, and walked past them. The two bodyguards quickly followed after her.
“Lingshi!” Gu Qiwu quickly spun around and called out to her.
However, Mu Lingshi did not stop walking. She actually resented seeing this pair of father and daughter because, at the sight of them, she would be reminded of Mu Zi’s tragedy, the unworthiness of Lingtian’s death, and the joke of her existence.
…
“Okay, don’t think too much about it. It should’ve been a happy day, so don’t ruin your own mood because you b.u.mped into them. I heard everything from earlier too.” Ah Mo caught up in a few huge strides to hold Mu Lingshi by her arm.
Mu Lingshi took a deep breath and shook her head. “I’m fine. I’m done caring about these things. The baby’s doing well and is very healthy, so don’t worry. Where did you go earlier? Did you need to talk to the doctor for so long?” She looked puzzled at him.
A smile curved upon Ah Mo’s handsome face. “Nothing much. I just briefly tried to find out about their situation. Doris wants to get a divorce with Gu Qiwu, so she’s been trying to get a lawyer recently, but he’s grounded her. This is going to be good to watch.”
“Divorce, huh? Doris is quite a frank woman. I just wonder how Gu Qiwu will respond.”
“With Gu Qiwu’s personality, he wouldn’t just let go of Doris so easily. Ah, do you think he’s regretting his decision right now? If he had insisted on being with Mother, he wouldn’t be where he is today. Mother had always been loyal towards him…”
“Loyal towards him? Don’t you think that it’s a tragic joke to be loyal towards someone and end up like this?”
When Mu Lingshi said this, she sighed bitterly and looked up at the blue sky. After a long while, she said softly, “Women are just afraid of loving the wrong person in their lifetime. Perhaps to a woman like Mother, love was her everything. Losing it meant that her heart died, thus she couldn’t care less…”
