Taking care of her father?Jian Jianan sneered. How many times did Qi Xiuli go to the hospital since her father was hospitalized? Nanny Li was the one taking care of Jian Jianan’s father!Her pretense of being a good wife and mother was for whom?If she did not want to go, then she did not have to go. Why the need for all that nonsense?"I bet you just don't want to go!"Jian Jianan spoke in a more straightforward manner. She had no intention of beating around the bush with Qi Xiuli."I… Jianan,
Qi Xiuli narrowed her eyes and did not understand why Jian Jianan suddenly cared about Xiaorou so much. She did not believe that Jian Jianan's concern was sincere, and in fact, Jian Jianan’s greatest wish might be to see Xiaorou having a miscarriage!"Thanks for your concern, Jianan. I’ll convey your words to Xiaorou."Jian Jianan turned to leave and a sinister grin appeared in the corner of her mouth.Subsequently, Jian Jianan prepared busily for her trip to Ze City. Gu Mocheng was also unhappy
After talking to Jian Jianan, Gu Mocheng answered Hao Minzhi's call.Hao Minzhi's nagging voice squawked at once. "Mocheng, why haven't you come home today? We called you so many times and you didn’t pick up…""I was busy…""Busy? What are you busy doing? Are you at the army again? Mocheng, don't run around. Your wound isn’t better yet. Rest at home. What’s going to happen if your wound gets an infection, or worse?"Gu Mocheng eyebrows tensed up because of his mother's grating nagging. "My arm is fine. Don't worry."Hearing her son's impatience, Hao Minzhi no longer nagged and deliberately lowered her tone. "That's good. And yes, today is Kexin's birthday. Kexin has been waiting for you all morning. When will you come back? Don’t tell me you forgot Kexin’s birthday."Gu Mocheng was quiet.If not for Hao Minzhi’s reminder, Gu Mocheng would really have forgotten about Gu Kexin's birthday. The main reason for that was because he did not sleep much the night before and had a military parad
"Shanshan, your mother isn’t telling you to kill anyone or set fire to anything. As long as you cooperate with me and send Yueling to the room, you don't need to worry about anything else."Seeing that her mother had made up her mind, Gu Lingshan was so anxious that she had a layer of sweat all over her. "Mom, have you ever thought that if Brother knew about this… okay, not if. He WILL find out sooner or later. What do you think he’ll think of us when that time comes?"Hao Minzhi could not care less about all that after having reached that point. Although she did not ask what Gu Mocheng was up to recently, she had always known that he lived with Jian Jianan.The thought of Jian Jianan lying in her son's bed every night and whispering sweet nothings into his ears so he would not leave her made Hao Minzhi furious.She could not let her son be destroyed by Jian Jianan’s hands."By the time it’s too late to change anything, it doesn't matter what your brother thinks, as long as he and Jian
Gu Mocheng knew that his elder brother’s death had always been a burden for his mother. His elder died at the age of twenty, which was about how old Gu Mocheng was presently.Elder Brother had always been smart and capable. He was also obedient and filial, in his relationship, marriage, and birthday celebrations--all arranged by his parents.The magnitude of expectations his parents had for their eldest son was parallel to the amount of despair they felt when he died.Fortunately, his elder brot
Hao Minzhi has been observing everything in secret. When she saw Gu Mocheng fall over, she immediately rushed over to support him. She failed though, as he was simply too strong for her. Gu Kexin came out of the bathroom just then and saw her fainted uncle. Anxious, she shouted, "Third Uncle… Third Uncle! What's happening to you?"Seeing that Gu Mocheng was not responding, the child cried anxiously.Hao Minzhi was in a lot of trouble, so she gave Gu Lingshan a call."Mom, what’s happening to Bro
"Dad… You… Why are you here?"Gu Yishan saw Gu Lingshan’s guilty disposition and gently pushed her aside before walking in. "What are you doing?"Just then, he saw the unconscious Gu Mocheng and Qin Yueling on the bed, lying side-by-side, sleeping together.Gu Yishan knew his son well. Gu Mocheng was very vigilant, being a soldier and all, and it was impossible for him to stay asleep with so many people in the room."What have you done to Mocheng and Yueling?"Gu Yishan's cold eyes glanced back and forth between Hao Minzhi and Gu Lingshan. Gu Lingshan did not dare say anything and quietly hid behind Hao Minzhi.Hao Minzhi did not expect Gu Yishan to appear here then. Her first sentence was not an explanation, but a question. "Were you following me?""If I didn’t, I wouldn’t’ve known that you were doing something to your own son! What happened to Mocheng and Yueling?"Hao Minzhi had been very angry because of her husband’s recent indifference. Once she saw that Gu Yishan wanted to go fo
Thinking that Gu Mocheng would come back in uniform that night, Jian Jianan was very excited.Only God knew how much she wanted to tear Gu Mocheng’s clothes off whenever he was in his military uniform. Plus, if he sees the clothes she wore then, hmph! She would love to see how he would try to control himself.If she took that opportunity to tell him about going to Ze City during their impassioned excitement, she did not believe that she was unable to settle him once and for all.As Jian Jianan t
