Chapter 19
Lin Lanfang sneered. “This is your upbringing, no manners at all. Even the homeless people on the street are more refined than you!”
Gu Wan’an didn’t react in the slightest, painlessly, as if she didn’t hear it at all.
On the contrary, Gu Baiping couldn’t sit still. She wanted to get up, but just as she moved a little, she was held down by Gu Wan’an. “Be good and sit still. Drink the chicken soup first. Otherwise, it will get cold later.”
As she spoke, she didn’t stay idle either. She fed her spoonful after spoonful of chicken soup.
Lin Lanfang was treated like air. She was completely ignored, but she couldn’t leave.
Her face was livid.
After drinking the chicken soup, Gu Wan’an wiped the corner of Gu Baiping’s mouth with a towel, and then her gaze fell on Lin Lanfang.
“A check for half a million. The password is my birthday.” Lin Lanfang placed the check on the table.
Gu Baiping was embarrassed. “I don’t need it. You should take it back. Thank you for coming to see me today.”
Lin Lanfang rolled her eyes impatiently. ���You haven’t improved at all. You’re just like before, hypocritical and noble.”
Gu Baiping felt humiliated and her body trembled with anger.
Gu Wan’an looked up and slammed the glass of water on the table with a loud bang.
Lin Lanfang and Gu Baiping looked over at once.
Gu Wan’an leaned her back against the wall and looked at Lin Lanfang coldly. She said expressionlessly, “A slip of the hand.”
Lin Lanfang shuddered for a moment before she regained her composure, suppressing the impatience and emotions in her heart.
She took Gu Baiping’s hand and put the check in her palm, smiling hypocritically. “All these years, it’s all thanks to you that Wan’an could grow up. You have to keep this money.”
Gu Wan’an raised her eyebrows. She finally saw what it meant for someone to turn on a sixpence.
“Anan is obedient and well-behaved. She is also good at taking care of others. I didn’t waste my time.” Gu Baiping was surprised and flattered. She shook her head and continued, “I’m willing to take care of Anan. I’m not selling the child. I really can’t take the money! ”
“Then just take it as a loan. Write an IOU and pay it back later.”
Gu Baiping hesitated for a long time before nodding.
After writing the IOU, Lin Lanfang turned around and left impatiently as if she was avoiding the plague.
“Anan, your mother still has you in her heart after all. It’s said that a child is a piece of flesh that falls from the mother’s body. How can she not have feelings for you? She has changed a lot over the years.” Gu Baiping retracted her gaze and turned to Gu Wan’an.
“Hm.”
Gu Wan’an hummed nonchalantly.
Shen Ziqing was the piece of flesh that fell from Lin Lanfang’s body. At most, she would be a tumor. A malignant one!
“Sigh, I’m the disappointed one. I can’t even go to your wedding with Zi’an.” Thinking of the wedding, Gu Baiping felt extremely regretful.
Gu Wan’an’s heart tightened. She didn’t say a word, hiding the low emotions in her eyes.
“In a couple of days, bring Zi’an over, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen him, and I kinda miss him.”
Gu Wan’an’s scalp tingled as she rambled on, “He’s been busy recently. He went overseas on a business trip.”
“Then wait for him to come back from his business trip.”
“Okay, we’ll talk about it later. I’m a little busy now. I have to go to my part-time job.”
The words fell, and without waiting for Gu Baiping to say anything, she quickly left the ward.
It was not until she left the hospital that Gu Wan’an tense mind finally relaxed. She held her forehead with her hand as she felt a headache.
Soldiers come, a general stops them. Water floods, the earth stems it. She will take one step at a time.
At six o’clock, the taxi arrived at the Greenfield Bar.
After paying, Gu Wan’an entered the bar.
The rich and exciting nightlife had just begun, and she walked around the brightly lit lobby and went straight to the waiters’ breakroom.
