All he saw was that his uncle, who was originally so quiet, was now chatting so enthusiastically with Mu Huan. Their relationship was getting better and better.
His expression darkened.
Gu Qianru, who had been paying attention to him, instantly felt heartache when she saw the change in his expression.
Her son! He was such a bright and cheerful son who only had happiness in his life, but because of Mu Huan, he had become like this! Not only was he being mocked behind his back for fighting with his uncle over a woman, but he also had to bear this kind of pain. Not only did he not get the woman he liked, but he also had to watch her happily being in love with another man!
He shouldn’t be suffering this kind of pain!
Mu Huan shouldn’t exist in their world!
After dinner, Mu Huan went to the washroom.
When she came out, she saw Gu Qianru in the corridor, clearly waiting for her.
“Come with me. I have something to tell you.” With that, Gu Qianru turned around and left.
Just as Mu Huan was about to follow her, she suddenly thought of something. Hence, she sent Bo Junyan a text message. “Sister-in-law wants to talk to me. In case things don’t go well, you can wait nearby and come over when I give a signal.”
Gu Qianru’s health was not good. The last time she left the hospital, she looked at her with so much hatred. She did not even want her to attend Old Master Gu’s funeral. Today, the way she looked at her did not improve at all. Mu Huan was afraid that something would happen if Gu Qianru talked to her.
By then, even if she didn’t do anything, it would be a mistake. It would cause a rift between the two families because of her. Hence, it was necessary for Bo Junyan to appear at the right time.
“I’ll be right there,” Bo Junyan replied quickly.
“There’s no need for that. I want to talk to Sister-in-law as well. We’re family. It’s best if we can resolve the knot in our hearts.” Mu Huan knew that it was impossible to restore her relationship with Gu Qianru to how it was in the past. There would always be a crack if something had already happened. However, she wanted to try her best to make Gu Qianru no longer hate her so much.
Bo Junyan quickly replied, “Okay.”
Mu Huan and Gu Qianru went to the garden outside.
The late autumn night breeze was a little cold. Mu Huan instinctively took off her coat and wanted to give it to Gu Qianru, but Gu Qianru rejected her.
“Let’s talk inside the house, then.” Mu Huan looked at her delicate body, which looked like it could be blown away by a gust of wind. She was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to get up tomorrow if she were to be blown by the wind.
Gu Qianru definitely did not want to go back to the house to talk, but Mu Huan would leave immediately if she did not accept the coat or return to her room. Hence, she could only accept Mu Huan’s coat.
“Mu Huan, you’re clearly a kind person. Why did you hurt us?” Gu Qianru looked at Mu Huan with a hurt expression.
Mu Huan: “…”
She used the tone of a victim to accuse her, making her feel like she had targeted Gu Chenyi.
She had clearly done nothing, yet they were accusing her of hurting them.
How did she hurt them?
She asked the same question.
“Sister-in-law, what have I done to hurt you?”
“Existing.”
Mu Huan: “…”
What should she say? Her existence had hurt them…
“Xiao Huan, don’t you think that all these things started because of you? If it weren’t for you, Lin Qingya wouldn’t have spent so much effort to be with Chenyi. Chenyi would still be that sunny young man from the past, and my dad might not have been diagnosed with cancer! He wouldn’t have passed away so early. Without you, all of this wouldn’t have happened!”
