Eighties Sweetheart Wife-Chapter 617 This has turned into a vendetta!
Chapter 617: Chapter 617 This has turned into a vendetta!
After Song Yunuan finished speaking, Old Master Gu suddenly narrowed his eyes.
His fingers gently tapped on the armrest of the sofa. Now he understood; this was the blindness of those directly involved. Even he, Old Man Gu, was not immune to it.
Even though he had been an influential figure all his life, when it came to such domestic affairs, his mind just couldn’t wrap around them.
It might also be that he never really took these matters to heart.
But he had heard very clearly the words Shu Xiang had said.
The resentment in her curses and the hatred in her eyes, he had seen them all too clearly.
This was enmity!
Could they still get married?
If they did get married, could Shu Xiang live under the same roof as Jiaojiao without any grudges?
Even if Jiaojiao didn’t concern herself with anything, didn’t ask about anything, and changed her attitude toward Shu Xiang entirely, considering the girl’s temperament, it seemed that this knot might never be untied.
After all is said and done, Shu Xiang was the type to hold grudges.
Gu Huai’an stood beside Song Yunuan, and although he did not speak, his facial expressions made it clear that he was angry at the moment.
But his anger was the bottled-up kind.
However, his stance was very clear.
He didn’t interfere with anything, letting Little Nuan take charge.
Old Master Gu, too, fell silent.
He sent a warning glance at Qin Suyun and Gu Chao, who sat there without speaking.
We’re all old, and when there are things we can’t understand, it’s best to keep our mouths shut.
Wang Mengdan’s face showed a rapidly changing range of expressions, but in the end, she looked at Song Yunuan with shame.
She couldn’t afford to offend Song Yunuan.
She couldn’t go against Song Yunuan, for this girl never talked nonsense, and she couldn’t outtalk her.
This was no ordinary girl; it was said that she knew many big shots and had many friends.
She had even rescued a down-and-out noble son from Xiangjiang.
Such was Song Yunuan, whose actions could readily be criticized for those looking for faults, for indeed, there were many to be found.
Yet Qin Suyun, who was proudly fastidious by nature, treated Song Yunuan remarkably well.
Not a single person dared to question Song Yunuan’s character.
This in itself showed the girl’s solid footing and standing.
Often, appearances don’t reveal the whole story.
If Qin Suyun treated her with such consideration, how could Song Yunuan be just a simple girl?
She wasn’t a fool; she had lived in that compound for many years now, mingling with people who were shrewd and sophisticated.
She was certain, there was much she didn’t know.
It wasn’t that they didn’t want her to know.
It was that she wasn’t qualified to know.
Song Yunuan like this was the only one in the world.
To this day, she had not seen a second one; truly unique.
What’s there to compare?
Did she have the right to compare?
Her son was a world apart from Huai’an.
Were there truly a girl like Song Yunuan, how could she possibly fancy her son?
Perhaps Jiaojiao was simply acting out of vanity.
And what about herself?
She probably wasn’t any better.
But these were thoughts she could never admit to the people in the living room.
Even if it was the truth, she couldn’t acknowledge it.
By not admitting it, there was still room to maneuver.
Then, as time passed, no one would bring it up again.
Moreover, today’s issue was mainly about Jiaojiao.
How could that girl be so foolish?
She had heard that Zheng Xinhe was coming back, but she hadn’t thought about it going anywhere else. What gave Jiaojiao the right to spout nonsense here and make decisions for her eldest son?
Besides, Zheng Xinhe and her own eldest son were only close during childhood. Since they went abroad, there had been no contact between them at all.
Which fool was using this silly girl?
She patted Song Yunuan’s arm soothingly and said gently, "Little Nuan, you really are good to Jiaojiao. Her grades have improved a lot, and she has never ranked in the top three in her class before. We, as parents, don’t even know how to thank you. It’s good that the child’s academic performance has improved, but her character hasn’t. That’s the responsibility of her father and me..."
Song Yunuan wasn’t surprised.
Which of the two daughters-in-law at home was ordinary?
Under such circumstances, to still act foolishly was impossible to reach this day.
Since Wang Mengdan’s attitude had already been corrected, concerning her secretly comparing herself with Shu Xiang and causing unnecessary conflict, Song Yunuan decided to put that aside for now.
Standing there, she casually asked, "So, what’s next?"
Did Wang Mengdan know what Song Yunuan was talking about?
She had been in the living room all this time, not knowing where her son and Shu Xiang were.
Had a fight broken out, or what?
There was almost an accident last time.
If something happened again, it would be better for the Gu family to break up early.
Wang Mengdan actually wanted to go out and see how the two were doing, but it didn’t seem right.
If she didn’t go out, she would keep worrying.
She was truly angry with Jiaojiao this time.
She glared fiercely at Gu Jiaojiao, who was shrinking her neck and lowering her head in silence.
You think you’re so capable?
So impressive?
You were brandishing your claws before, so why have you wilted like a frostbitten eggplant now?
It’s just like dealing with Shu Xiang.
For the first time, Wang Mengdan had a change of perspective and suddenly felt her daughter must be the kind of evil youngest aunt her colleagues talked about.
Then there was the matter with Zheng Xinhe, how to explain it to Shu Xiang?
In fact, she had never met Zheng Xinhe.
Wang Mengdan’s mouth opened, but for a moment, she didn’t know what to say.
Silence suddenly descended on the living room.
Song Yunuan pulled Gu Jiaojiao, who was hiding behind Wang Mengdan, out.
Then she lifted her head.
Song Yunuan then curiously asked, "Gu Jiaojiao, I heard what you just said. So let me ask you again, was everything you said true?"
Gu Jiaojiao hesitated and didn’t dare to look at Song Yunuan.
Song Yunuan pressed, "Did Zheng Xinhe tell you she likes your big brother?"
Gu Jiaojiao had no choice but to shake her head because Zheng Xinhe hadn’t said so, and she didn’t dare to lie.
"So if Zheng Xinhe didn’t say she liked your big brother, does that mean it was your parents who said they liked Zheng Xinhe?"
Wang Mengdan’s complexion could no longer be described as overcast like still water.
Right, there were those words too.
This damn girl, in the heat of her anger, managed to drag her and her father into it. freewebnøvel.com
This wretched girl!
Wang Mengdan couldn’t hold back anymore and slapped her daughter on the back while scolding furiously, "When did I tell you I liked Zheng Xinhe? Did your father say so, you foolish liar?"
Gu Jiaojiao was slapped so hard she nearly fell to the ground. This time, Song Yunuan didn’t intervene. The girl was smart but stubborn.
Song Yunuan asked again, "Do you really like Zheng Xinhe?"
Gu Jiaojiao’s mouth twitched.
Did she like Zheng Xinhe? She wasn’t clear now.
In fact, if Zheng Xinhe hadn’t introduced herself, she wouldn’t have recognized her as Sister Xinhe.
Zheng Xinhe left when she was still small. How could she remember so much?
There were no memories at all.
Song Yunuan smiled, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes. She warned Gu Jiaojiao, "Gu Jiaojiao, I’m not joking with you. There shouldn’t be a third time for something like this!"
