CHAPTER 191: CHAPTER 191: GU KUANGYUAN, YOU’RE RUTHLESS!

Facing Cheng Ye, Gu Kuangyuan spoke the most ruthless words: "Cheng Ye, you know you’re not worthy of me, so why do you still come to bother me? Don’t forget, who hurt whom first back then."

Cheng Ye stepped back two steps, his teeth almost biting out blood. This was really not the Gu Kuangyuan he knew.

So many years, it turned out that only he lived in the past.

This young lady had long forgotten about someone as insignificant as him.

He had only ever had her; he had never looked at anyone else, yet she said he was unworthy!

"Gu Kuangyuan, you win!"

He turned and left. Gu Kuangyuan watched his back as he walked away, holding onto the wall for support.

She clutched her chest, taking deep breaths, tears falling onto the back of her hand.

If he turned back now, he would definitely see her crying uncontrollably.

If he saw her tears, would he come over and hold her, saying sorry?

Just like before, whether it was his fault or not, he would always hold her and say, "Xiao Yuan, I was wrong."

But he would never turn back. Gu Kuangyuan watched his figure disappear into the distance, raising her hand to wipe her tears, but the more she wiped, the more they flowed.

Cheng Ye, you are my lifelong tribulation, how long will you continue to torment me?

Gu Kuangyuan returned to her car, lying on the steering wheel and crying bitterly until no more tears could flow. She took out a makeup bag to touch up her makeup.

She drove back to the Gu Family Mansion, getting out of the car and putting on a detached and indifferent face.

She walked up to the third floor and heard the constant sound of smashing and banging from Gu Qianlan’s room.

With a gloomy face, she walked over. Aunt He stood at the door, kindly persuading through the door, "Miss, if you stay calm for a while, Master will let you out."

Gu Qianlan cursed, "Get lost! You damn old servant, do I still have to listen to you? Who do you think you are?"

Aunt He’s face was extremely embarrassed. Seeing the lady arrive, she said helplessly, "Miss Qianlan refuses to stop."

Gu Kuangyuan said, "Open the door."

Aunt He hurriedly said, "Master doesn’t allow..."

Gu Kuangyuan grabbed the key and opened the door. The inside was a mess, expensive paintings torn to shreds, porcelain shattered all over the floor.

She avoided the debris on the ground and walked in, grabbing Gu Qianlan’s hair and slapping her face.

Aunt He outside was scared to death. Was this really the lady who never cared about family affairs?

Gu Qianlan was stunned by the slap. Why did everyone want to hit her? What right did they have to hit her!

She cried on the ground like a shrew. Gu Kuangyuan stuffed a towel in her mouth, poking her forehead and said, "Gu Qianlan, I watched you grow up. Everyone treated you as the little princess of the Gu Family, but you’re just a shameless bitch!"

Gu Qianlan momentarily forgot to cry. She looked at her aunt with wide eyes. Her aunt had never hit her, and would never say such harsh words!

She had never been scolded this way, the shame almost drowning her. How could her aunt say such things!

Gu Kuangyuan continued, "I despised Yin Yue back then, and now you’re just like her! Stripping yourself and crawling into a man’s bed, if that’s not a bitch, what is? If you have any sense of shame left, behave yourself and stop disgracing the Gu Family by clinging to men and pretending to be dead!"

Liang Huiyun rushed in from another room. Hearing these words, she nearly blacked out. Aunt He supported her, but Liang Huiyun pushed her away, "Gu Kuangyuan, it’s not your place to teach my daughter!"

Gu Kuangyuan reached up to adjust her hair, "You arrived just in time. Not only will I teach her, but I’ll teach you too!"

Liang Huiyun was incredulous, "You dare to teach me?"

"Why wouldn’t I? When my parents were alive, you didn’t serve them well. They were kind enough not to hold it against you. Have you truly cared about my elder brother as a wife should? Let alone towards your children; has Yi Ke ever confided in you about anything? What kind of mother are you? As for Gu Qianlan... haha, Miss Liang Huiyun from the prestigious Liang Family, you look down on everyone. Now as a mother-in-law, you expect your daughter-in-law to obey you in everything. Go ahead, Yi Ke is ruthless enough to cut off his mother. Don’t say I didn’t warn you."

Gu Kuangyuan cared little that Liang Huiyun was on the brink of collapsing. She kicked aside the debris and walked out, turning back to Gu Qianlan, "If you dare to make any more noise, I’ll hit you again. Don’t believe me? Try it."

She returned to her room and closed the door, collapsing onto the bed as if drained of all strength.

Fortunately, Yi Ke was clear-headed and protected his wife, and An Junxi wasn’t one to silently endure. Otherwise, no one would be able to control Liang Huiyun, and this family would fall apart sooner or later.

Liang Huiyun lay on the sofa. Aunt He fetched her some heart-saving pills, which Liang Huiyun haphazardly stuffed into her mouth, swallowing them with a gulp of water, taking a while to catch her breath.

Aunt He stood by silently. Liang Huiyun looked around the empty hall, feeling desolate, and said after a long pause, "I’ve been in the Gu Family for decades, yet no one truly accepts me."

Even her most beloved daughter now broke her heart, preferring a man over her family. What sins had she committed?

She asked Aunt He, "Were Gu Kuangyuan’s words too disrespectful?"

Aunt He, knowing the lady’s bad mood, should have said something comforting but chose to remain silent.

Liang Huiyun said miserably, "I see, you think the same. I understand now."

Aunt He lowered her head. Having lived most of her life, she understood things well enough.

The young miss being spoiled and making mistakes should have been firmly corrected by the lady, but at this moment, the lady couldn’t bring herself to discipline her daughter. Instead, she vented her anger on Junxi, making Junxi feel heartbroken, causing the young master to no longer want to return home, and even the master didn’t want to bother with the lady anymore.

The lady’s strong-willed nature, knowing she was wrong but unwilling to admit it, would only push her loved ones further away. Was it really worth it?

An Junxi never returned to the mansion. She visited the Seventh Uncle in the hospital every day, chatting by his bedside.

The doctor had set a twenty-minute limit for visits. She couldn’t stay long, and sometimes when she left the ward, she would encounter Liang Huiyun and Gu Kuangyong, giving them a simple greeting before leaving.

Sometimes, Gu Kuangyong would invite Junxi to join them on hospital visits, saying, "I don’t want Seventh Uncle to worry. Junxi, don’t hold grudges against your mother."

They went together a few times, but there was little conversation in the ward, and Liang Huiyun remained cold towards her.

Junxi lacked the energy to try to please her mother-in-law and didn’t want to do so. She thought, let things take their natural course.

She secretly called Aunt He to ask about the situation at the old mansion.

Aunt He told her about the incident where Auntie scolded Gu Qianlan. Junxi listened and felt a deep sense of gratitude towards her aunt.

Her aunt was the most insightful and fearless person in the Gu Family.
