However, as Gu Yuan said this, a stunned expression appeared on Zhang Yue’s face.
“Rou’er, what previously? This is different from what you told me.”
Gu Rou lied on both sides, but she did not expect them to confront her at this moment. She was flustered and helpless, not knowing how to explain. She stood rooted to the ground and did not react, but her silence gave a better explanation.
Zhang Yue immediately looked disappointed.
“Rou’er, you weren’t like this in the past. Why are you lying now?”
At this moment, strong regret rose in Zhang Yue’s heart. As the light on Gu Man’s body shone brighter and brighter, the flaws on Gu Rou’s body gradually revealed themselves. He regretted his initial choice, but he quickly shook his head and threw out the thoughts in his mind.
Gu Rou had only done something wrong once. How could he deny all her previous efforts?
Gu Man committed crimes and was materialistic. She could not be compared to Gu Rou at all.
Although he explained in his heart, the scales in Zhang Yue’s heart were gradually tilting.
Gu Yuan felt his head hurt even more when he heard Zhang Yue’s words. Although he did not understand what was going on, he understood a little after these words.
He tilted his head and glared at Qu Bei. Qu Bei’s face was filled with guilt. It was obvious that she knew about the matter, but she did not tell him.
However, the most important thing now was not their internal strife, but to resolve the crime of defamation.
At the thought that they were full of confidence when they came, but now they were like clowns, Gu Yuan’s entire face turned ashen. In the end, he looked at the culprit, Gu Man.
“If I remember correctly, defamation is usually only considered a crime under serious circumstances. Besides, we’re family. It’s just a small fight between two sisters. Let’s forget about this matter.”
Initially, Gu Yuan did not plan to turn this matter into a small matter because he wanted to use this opportunity to clear the Gu family’s name. At the same time, he could also get rid of Gu Man, this burden.
Other than finding things for the Gu family to do, Gu Man was useless and there was no need to keep her. Gu Yuan had long wanted to chase Gu Man out of the Gu family.
When Li Hua heard this, he felt that it was ridiculous. They were the ones who refused to let go at the beginning, but now, they wanted to pretend that nothing had happened.
However, this was indeed not something a police officer like him could decide. In the end, it depended on Gu Man’s final wishes.
Gu Yuan seemed to have realized this as well. He turned to look at Gu Man and said earnestly, “1 did do something wrong previously, but we’re family after all. If word gets out, not only will the Gu family not look good, but you won’t look good either. So let’s forget about this matter. You should go home too. We’ll make it up to you.”
Of course, Gu Yuan knew that only by giving her a sweet jujube could he coax her home better. Therefore, he tried his best to act like a benevolent father. However, because he had never pretended in front of Gu Man, the expression on his face was especially fake.
Gu Man looked at the expression on Gu Yuan’s face and did not say anything, but she suddenly laughed. “Do you know that you’re very ugly like this?”
Gu Yuan’s eyes widened as if he could not believe what he had heard. He immediately could not continue faking his fatherly expression.
“That’s enough. You still need us to support you in high school!”
Gu Yuan knew that his words were useless and immediately turned into a threat, but he did not know that Gu Man was least afraid of his threat.
Upon hearing this, Gu Man sneered. “I’ve been away for so long. Have you ever seen me ask you for a single cent?”
When he suddenly heard Gu Man’s words, Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment before a look of disdain appeared on his face.
“We’ve spent money to support you for so many years. You should have more or less some pocket money left. Besides, you’ve only been away for a few days. It’s normal for you to still have money.”
Hearing Gu Yuan’s dignified reason, Gu Man could not help but laugh.
He really had the cheek to say that. The money he spent on her was not as much as the money he spent on the servants at home. It could not even compare to the expenses that ordinary families spend on their children..
