In the past life, every single thing Wenjing did was vivid in Gu Tong’s mind and unforgettable, especially her vicious expressions, which were deeply etched in her heart!
"Sister-in-law... you don’t want to, do you?" Wenjing pressed step by step, hoping Gu Tong would relent.
"What are you talking about, we’re family!"
Gu Tong changed her tone but still responded in a manner that went along with Wenjing’s words.
"Sister-in-law..." Wenjing was a bit dazed. She thought she would have to spend much more effort, but it turned out to be so simple.
How could Gu Tong, with such a proud personality, soften just because of a few words from her...
"Actually, I’ve long wanted to chat with you! I just didn’t have the right opportunity. I’m really happy you can talk to me about these things."
Whether true or not, as the sister-in-law, Gu Tong had to endure it; otherwise, she would give others something to talk about.
"We are family after all, and I still hope for peace and prosperity. I guess your cousin thinks the same."
Gu Tong put on a fake mask, appearing extremely gracious.
But just , it was enough to confuse Wenjing...
She was not unfamiliar with Gu Tong’s two-faced nature; suddenly seeing her made her a bit uncomfortable.
Sure enough, Qiu Xue was right; Gu Tong is deeply scheming. She was too naive and underestimated her back then.
"Thank you, sister-in-law... I didn’t expect you to be so tolerant and kind..." Wenjing’s face almost cramped with her smile, but she didn’t forget the main matter. She took out a lunchbox and said, "I specially made this soup for you, sister-in-law. Drink it while it’s hot; it’s very nutritious."
"Chicken soup is very nourishing. Aunt said she’ll make it for you every day from now on; it’s especially effective for pregnancy."
The words exploded in Gu Tong’s mind, and past memories kept resurfacing.
She remembered that before she died, Qiu Xue had told her that the reason she couldn’t be pregnant anymore was because of these nourishing soups.
Thinking of her child who died shortly after birth, and the many years spent seeking treatment, but never able to conceive again!
Gu Tong clenched her fists tightly.
Her expression didn’t change at all, but her smile was less natural. She said, "Thanks for your effort!"
Thanks for the effort to make sure I can’t have children, for all the ways you tried to break us apart!
Even though she was long disheartened by them, Gu Tong still felt a chill. She never imagined that people could be so cruel!
Wenjing, with a guilty conscience, didn’t notice Gu Tong’s change.
She touched Gu Tong’s stomach and said, "Sister-in-law’s health is the most important. You must drink lots of this soup; it’s sure to help you give birth to a son."
Gu Tong wished dearly to slap her hand away but still held back.
Because she knew she couldn’t act rashly now!
After so many years of dealings, she understood Wenjing’s shallow scheming and also knew Li’s mother’s tactics! It’s impossible for the two of them to come up with such a plan alone.
So according to Gu Tong’s judgment, someone must be advising them.
Considering their relationship with Qiu Xue, it wasn’t hard for Gu Tong to guess who the real culprit was!
Remembering the chicken soup incident in her past life, it happened after she gave birth to her first child! Based on the current timeline, it’s about three years apart!
Sure enough, seeing her getting close to Li Yan made her restless, didn’t it!
