Apology
Yang Mengshan turned pale with shock and her eyes widened.
She explained nervously, “It’s not what you are thinking. Sis, Dad… I just heard that someone from Sis’s exam venue lost her exam admission ticket.”
After saying that, her tears started trickling down again.
She cried so beautifully that it always attracted sympathy.
Gu Youli’s tone was not harsh but her gaze was filled with disdain. “And you assumed that it must be me when you heard that someone from my exam venue had lost her exam admission ticket? If this isn’t giving yourself away, what is it? Mengshan, my good sister, you’re really ruthless! No matter how much you dislike me, you shouldn’t have thrown my exam admission ticket away and tried to ruin my life by not letting me take part in the college entrance exam. If I didn’t find out in time and apply for the temporary exam admission ticket, I’m afraid I would have been the one crying badly right now. You’re my sister. Search your conscience and ask yourself if I’ve been anything except kind to you. Why must you steal my exam admission ticket? After giving yourself away accidentally, now you’re pretending to be weak and wronged? Who are you putting on an act for? Ask the people around you and ask Daddy if they would sympathize with you after knowing this!”
Yang Mengshan was stumped after being scolded by Gu Youli.
After hearing all this, everyone could figure out what actually happened.
No one would have expected that such a pure-looking girl would be so vile to destroy someone else’s exam admission ticket and ruin her life.
“Is this like the white lotus and fake saint in novels?”
“Hehe, interesting. She even has the cheek to cry!”
“Hmph, if my sister were to do that to me, I would eat her up.”
...
Slowly, the chatter around them became softer. Since it was the first day of the college entrance exam, they were all nervous and not in the mood to gossip. Most people left after commenting around a bit.
Yang Mengshan felt very embarrassed. Her fair skin was red with embarrassment. She kept shaking her head in agony to show that she was innocent.
“Sis, I didn’t. I really didn’t. Boohoo. Daddy, you have to believe me…” Yang Mengshan continued to cry delicately and looked at Gu Liangwei, in a pitiful manner.
However, in her heart, she was cursing Gu Youli.
That darn Gu Youli, how did she change so drastically, all of a sudden?
She used to be so mild and was always fooled by her.
Now, she had such an imposing aura. So striking that she almost couldn’t breathe.
Ever since Gu Youli had questioned Yang Mengshan, Gu Liangwei had been silent.
His face was ashen and he looked at Yang Mengshan suspiciously, time and again.
After a while, he clenched his fists and said, “Mengshan, really. You should not make assumptions every time you hear such unjustified news. Do you know that you caused Daddy to misunderstand your sister and even hit her very hard? Apologize to Gu Youli right now.”
“Dad…” Yang Mengshan was upset. She looked at Gu Liangwei with sadness and saw the coldness in his eyes.
She did not think any further and apologized quickly. “I’m sorry, Sis!”
She was really afraid that Gu Liangwei would refuse to send her to university in a fit of anger. That way, her life would be ruined.
Besides, Gu Liangwei got her to apologize because he thought that she had spread false rumors and not because she stole the exam admission ticket.
Gu Liangwei did not give Yang Mengshan another look. Instead, he asked Gu Youli gently, “So how did the exam go?”
Gu Youli made a peace sign at Gu Liangwei cheekily. “Dad, I completed the paper in time and have full confidence.”
