Chapter 76: What a Family Misfortune

Xiang Wanqiao was a little surprised when she heard Lu Qingzhou call her

sister-in-law.

It’s rare to hear the taste of humility from Dean Lu’s proud mouth. She teased.

Hearing this, Lu Qingzhou coughed awkwardly, then turned his head and looked into the distance.

Qi Xiaoyi took over the conversation and said to Xiang Wanqiao sincerely: Sister-in-law, we have offended you before. You are a generous person, don’t bother with us.

Xiang Wanqiao twitched the corners of her lips and replied leisurely: You also care about Ah Zhan, I won’t blame you. If it were me, I would do the same.

Thank you for your understanding, sister-in-law.

Xiang Wanqiao turned her head to look at Gu Jingzhan and reported to him: You guys talk first, I’m going to the bathroom.

Gu Jingzhan was afraid that she couldn’t find the bathroom, so he was a little worried, so he said: I’ll go with you.

No, I can find it myself.

Xiang Wanqiao saw that Qi Xiaoyi and Lu Qingzhou had something to say to Gu Jingzhan, so she declined his proposal.

Gu Jingzhan didn’t insist, but just whispered: Be careful.

Yeah.

Xiang Wanqiao turned and left the back balcony.

After Xiang Wanqiao walked away, Qi Xiaoyi finally couldn’t help but speak.

Do you have to be so precious? Sister-in-law is just going to the bathroom, not to venture into a dangerous place. What’s there to worry about?

Without Xiang Wanqiao, Lu Qingzhou was obviously much more relaxed.

He sank into the sofa chair on the balcony and explained: Sister-in-law just had an unpleasant quarrel with Wen Yu downstairs. Brother Zhan must be afraid that Wen Yu will take the opportunity to retaliate against sister-in-law.

Qi Xiaoyi waved his hand disapprovingly, saying that he was not worried at all: Don’t worry, with sister-in-law’s attitude, Wen Yu will be the only one who suffers.

Gu Jingzhan remained silent, just sitting quietly by the side listening to their conversation.

Qi Xiaoyi continued to complain: With Wen Yu’s personality, she is too spoiled and domineering. She needs to be disciplined.

Lu Qingzhou nodded in agreement, and then gave Qi Xiaoyi a meaningful look.

After receiving this look, Qi Xiaoyi secretly glanced at Gu Jingzhan, nervously considering how to phrase it.

That…Qi Xiaoyi was still a little scared when he spoke.

Gu Jingzhan raised his eyes and looked straight at him, waiting for his next words.

Qi Xiaoyi swallowed his saliva and pretended to be calm and continued: Brother Zhan, Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu are back to celebrate the old lady’s birthday. This matter…

I know. Gu Jingzhan replied coldly with three words, without a trace of emotion.

Qi Xiaoyi pursed his lips, turned his eyes to glance at Lu Qingzhou who was sitting on the sofa chair, and winked at him.

Lu Qingzhou clenched his fist, put his fist to the tip of his nose, coughed lightly, and spoke carefully: Then have you… met them?

Gu Jingzhan sneered and said in a self-deprecating tone: I am a child who jumped out of the cracks of the stone, without parents.

Hearing this, Lu Qingzhou and Qi Xiaoyi were both speechless, and no one dared to mention this matter again.

They had heard something about the relationship between Gu Jingzhan’s parents from their parents.

As for the relationship between Gu Jingzhan and his parents, the outside world only knew that they were not close, but no one knew the real reason, and they were no exception.

Gu Jingzhan was lost once when he was eight years old. When he was found, his personality changed.

He became withdrawn, indifferent, and silent, and he closed himself in a world that no one could reach.

The whole person was cold, no longer as warm as usual, but like a machine without emotion.

He gradually alienated his friends who had played together since childhood, and suspicion became his normal state.

It took them a long time to exude their kindness and sincerity in every interaction, and then slowly regained trust from Gu Jingzhan.

Although they didn’t know what Gu Jingzhan had experienced when he was eight years old, the only thing they could do was to accompany him silently and support him with all their strength.

There is no need to say more between men.

Xiang Wanqiao came out of the bathroom and ran into Wen Yu head-on.

She walked straight towards herself, and next to her was a woman who was dressed simply and had a cold temperament. Her face was well maintained and belonged to cold beauty.

Xiang Wanqiao wanted to avoid it, but Wen Yu didn’t intend to let her go.

Wen Yu blocked her way and complained to the woman next to her.

Aunt, she is the woman that my cousin insisted on marrying despite my grandmother’s objection. She just scolded me in front of so many guests downstairs. She has no manners or manners at all.

When Xiang Wanqiao heard Wen Yu call the woman in front of her aunt, she understood instantly.

This is Gu Jingzhan’s mother.

Wen Xueru looked at Xiang Wanqiao carefully, frowned slightly, and her eyes were full of dissatisfaction, Are you Xiang Wanqiao?

Xiang Wanqiao nodded and replied, Yes.

You and Jingzhan are not suitable, get a divorce as soon as possible.

Wen Xueru didn’t say any extra nonsense, but just gave her an order coldly.

After Wen Yu found a backer to support her, she immediately became tough and her voice rose a few degrees.

Xiang Wanqiao, did you hear that? My aunt said that you should divorce my cousin as soon as possible.

Facing their coercion, Xiang Wanqiao’s psychological activity at this moment was-just wanting to laugh.

Whether or not A-Zhan and I are suitable together is not for outsiders to judge. She said in a very tough tone, I said that I will never divorce him in this life.

Wen Yu accused dissatisfiedly: Xiang Wanqiao, you dare to talk to your mother-in-law like this! Do you have any family education?

Of course I have family education, but it depends on who I am in front of. If I am facing those low-quality people, why should I save face for them.

Xiang Wanqiao retorted neither servilely nor arrogantly.

You– Wen Yu was blushed again and speechless.

Xiang Wanqiao turned her head to look at Wen Xueru and smiled slightly: Aunt Gu, don’t take it to heart, I am a person who always speaks my mind.

Facing Gu Jingzhan’s mother, she really couldn’t say it directly.

And she knew that Wen Xueru would not accept such a title.

Therefore, after some consideration, Xiang Wanqiao still chose to call Gu Jingzhan’s mother Aunt Gu, which would be safer.

However, Wen Xueru looked at Wan Qiao with even more dislike, with disgust written all over her face.

Sure enough, she is so vulgar. She said sarcastically, I don’t know what kind of vision Jingzhan has, he actually likes a woman like you, it’s really unfortunate for our family.

As soon as she finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly sounded from behind her.

Is it a blessing for our family to like a woman like you?
