Gu Shen looked at Gu Ling and smiled, “Why are you in such a hurry?”
“Gu Shen!” Gu Ling looked around and suppressed her anger. “We are in the same boat now. If the boat capsizes, it will do us no good.”
“So you know that too.” Gu Shen smiled sarcastically. “Don’t worry, Auntie is safe now. You can continue whatever you want to do.”
“Really?”
“You and I are in the same boat,” Gu Ling forced herself to believe it. She was silent for a moment before suddenly looking at Yan Xi, “By the way, I just received a batch of luxury goods from my shop. I’ll send them to your villa tomorrow as an apology for what happened last time.”
Although Gu Ling apologized, her attitude was still arrogant. If it weren’t for the fact that she had something to ask of Gu Shen, she would not have given anything to Yan Xi.
Since it was not a sincere apology, there was no point in accepting it. Yan Xi rejected frankly, “Auntie, thank you for your kindness, but I don’t need these luxury goods now.”
No need? Gu Ling was stunned for a moment and scolded Yan Xi in her heart.
“That’s true. I’m quite forgetful lately. I keep thinking about how poor you looked when you first came to the Gu family.” She chuckled. “But now that you’re with Gu Shen, you should have a lot of those luxury goods. You’re really lucky.”
“Alright, I’m leaving. Gu Shen, remember to inform me if anything happens.”
Yan Xi pouted and thought to herself, Who do you think you are to ask Gu Shen to tell you what happens?
When they returned to their room in the old mansion, Yan Xi asked, “What does Aunt want from you that made her apologize to me?”
Gu Shen had no intention of hiding it. “Because of the conflict between her and Gu Sheng, Gu Sheng wants to kick her out of the board of directors. If she wants to stay, she can only beg me.” He paused and said, “That doesn’t count as an apology. She’ll come apologizing again in a few days with a more
sincere attitude.”
“That’s not important!” Yan Xi asked. “So are you going to help Auntie?”
Gu Shen did not speak.
Yan Xi sensed something unusual from his silence. She widened her eyes and asked in a low voice, “Do you want to kick both of them out?”
Gu Shen smiled and did not deny it. “It’s not suitable to talk about these things here.”
Yan Xi covered her mouth, then said angrily, “But Grandpa is really biased. What does he mean when he said he knows you’ve been wronged, but don’t blame your uncle. I just don’t understand why he is so biased towards Uncle when Uncle is such a useless person and even killed people.”
The more Yan Xi spoke, the angrier she became. “And he even suspects you. How biased!”
Gu Shen had experienced this many times and did not feel much about it. However, when he saw the pain and anger in Yan Xi’s eyes, he lowered his eyebrows and said softly, “I’m already used to it. Let them be suspicious.”
“No way! Why are you letting them suspect you!” Yan Xi angrily paced back and forth in the room and then went back to Gu Shen’s side.
“When we were in the main hall just now, Auntie was even more anxious than you are. How about we put the blame on Auntie. Anyway, Uncle can’t put the blame on you. You’re also a member of the Gu family, so why should you let them take advantage of you”
‘What Yan Xi said was exactly what Gu Shen was about to do.
However, he kept it from telling her for the time being.
“They won’t believe it. Let’s leave it at that.”
“But you’ll always be treated unfairly like this.” Yan Xi’s heart ached. “The Gu family will be biased against you because of these things. Over time, it’ll be more and more disadvantageous to you. Also, I don’t want to see you like this.”
“It’s fine.” Gu Shen looked at her and the corners of his lips curled up. “It’s always been like this.”
“Why are they doing this?” Yan Xi lowered her head, feeling sadder and sadder. Gu Shen had lost his parents when he was young, but not only did his relatives not care about him, but they also made him suffer all the time, forcing him to leam to be wary of people since he was a child.
If there was someone he could fall back on, he would not have to rely himself on everything.
Yan Xi felt a stinging sensation on her nose. She rubbed her eyes and said sulkily, “If they don’t treat you well, I’ll treat you well. I’ll make it up to you for them.”
Gu Shen wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes and said, “Alright, I know.. Why are you crying?”
