Chapter 739: The Gu Family
If not for the sake of the Nangong family, Mrs. Gu would have rushed forward and bashed Zhong Qianqian to death.
Eventually, Mrs. Gu managed to suppress her murderous aura.
Mr. Gu was someone who often made big decisions. He was the first to recover from the dismay. He sighed. “Qianqian, actually, this incident has brought irreparable damage to the Gu family.”
Zhong Qianqian was stunned by his words. She was about to say something when Mr. Gu added, “However, you’re young, and everyone makes mistakes, no? Since you’re already married to Mingzhe, you two are bound by legal law. In the future, your mother-in-law and I will be no different from your biological parents. We’re family now, so there’s no need to stand on ceremony.”
Zhong Qianqian knew that Gu Mingzhe’s parents were extremely good, but she did not expect them to be this good. Her tears started to fall as though someone turned on a tap.
Gu Mingyan smiled slightly and walked to Zhong Qianqian’s side. She held Zhong Qianqian’s hand tenderly. “Silly child, why do you keep crying during such a happy occasion as meeting your in-laws? No matter what grievances you’ve suffered, you must remember that we’re your family. We’ll stand on your side unconditionally. Understand?”
Zhong Qianqian nodded vigorously. “Yes, I understand, Auntie. Thank you.”
“We’re family, why are you thanking me for!”
Huang Yuhan quickly walked up and held Zhong Qianqian’s hand too, immersing Zhong Qianqian in the warmth of her family on the first day she came to the Gu family. She had undoubtedly considered herself as a member of the Gu family.
Since it was already very late, Gu Mingyan and Huang Yuhan stayed at the Gu family’s house for a short while and left after exchanging a few pleasantries.
It was only when the two of them left the Gu house and got into the Rolls-Royce Phantom that Huang Yuhan pursed her lips. “Mom, are you sure Zhong Qianqian is the little princess of the Nangong family? Doesn’t she look too inferior to be one? This is... I think Liang Wanchen is right. Standing with someone like her is an insult to me.”
Gu Mingyan reached out for a bottle of mineral water and took an elegant sip. Then, she said slowly, “Lil Han, you must remember that it’s impossible for people to remain unchanged in this lifetime. If you look down on her today, she’ll be beyond your reach in the future. The Nangong family aside, even if it’s the other three families, even if we’re talking about the sons of the mistresses raised outside the other three families, will they take a second look at you if you talk to them?”
Huang Yuhan snorted. “That’s because I’m still young. When I grow up and become an absolute beauty, they’ll still like me because of my status as the daughter of a second-tier wealthy family.”
Gu Mingyan touched Huang Yuhan’s head lovingly. “Of course, my daughter is an authentic daughter of a second-tier wealthy family. You did very well today. Although you’ve been complaining nonstop along the way that you refuse to talk to her, Zhong Qianqian will remember your standing up for her just now.
“A person’s temperament was built from the accumulation of money. Even though Zhong Qianqian looks old-fashioned now, I guarantee you that Zhong Qianqian will undergo an earth-shattering change in less than a month after returning to the Nangong family. At that time, when she became the little princess that the Nangong family can’t bear to put down and fusses over, you’ll become her best friend and sister.
“When the time comes, she’ll be surrounded by the rich and powerful men from the first-tier families. And are you scared that you won’t have your chance? As long as you marry into a first-tier wealthy family, even if she abandons your cousin after that, we’ll be fine.”
Huang Yuhan’s eyes widened. “With such a lowly temperament, not even my cousin has started despising her. How dare she abandon my cousin?”
