Adorable Twins: My Mother Is a Cool Miracle Doctor! Chapter 20

Chapter 20

Young Master Is Missing!
The Gu family’s past actions were not kept hidden, but now that they are in the spotlight, no one dares to mention the disgraceful history of the Gu family for fear of offending them.
If the Gu family had treated Gu Qingluan well, they could have moved on from the past. However, Gu Qingluan was expelled from the family, which only makes their actions more despicable.
The onlookers who have learned the truth about the past couldn’t hide their contempt when they look at Gu Zhicheng.
That incident was an unbearable sore spot for Gu Zhicheng, a stain on his character that he could not tolerate.
With his cultivation, he naturally heard the discussions around him.
His resolute face instantly turned red, a crimson hue mixed with darkness, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
“So, you insist on changing it today?”
Gu Qingluan didn’t miss his murderous intent. Her long lashes lowered, concealing the mockery in her eyes.
Gu Zhicheng, the cunning man who sweet-talked her mother into marrying him in order to seize the Jun family’s inheritance.
As a result, as soon as the members of the Jun family passed away, he immediately turned his back on them and married Wang Shi, his true love, giving her the status of a legal wife.
He showed no love for his own biological daughter, simply because her body was incapable of cultivation, discarding her like a worn-out shoe.
With such selfishness and self-interest, it was foolish to expect him to change twenty years later.
In that case, there was no need to show any mercy towards him.
“I’m changing it!”
The crowd was dumbfounded.
What a bold young lady!
“So cool!”
“So fierce!”
Those who knew the truth were filled with righteous indignation. Seeing Gu Qingluan daring to confront Gu Zhicheng in such a manner, their eyes lit up, and they displayed admiring gazes.
Gu Zhicheng was enraged, already imagining tearing Gu Qingluan apart in his mind. However, he knew all too well from their previous clash that he was no match for her.
Gu Qingluan’s audacity today hinted at her having some hidden cards up her sleeve.
If he were to engage her directly, Gu Zhicheng lacked the confidence to defeat Gu Qingluan.
It would surely become a laughingstock.
After a moment of contemplation, a trace of sorrow crept onto his face. “Qingluan, I suppose you’re cherishing the memory of your mother, and I often find myself thinking of her as well. If this exchange helps you remember her, then let’s proceed.”
What!
The head of the Gu family actually agreed?
Oh my!
This is the Gu family we’re talking about!
The most prestigious Gu family in Chengyuan Kingdom!
He actually allowed the plaque to be replaced!
Onlookers were astonished.
No one had expected Gu Zhicheng to agree.
The dignity of the Gu family was truly trampled upon and crushed!
Only Gu Qingluan remained unsurprised.
Back then, Gu Zhicheng had been willing to deceive her mother and forsake true love for the sake of the Jun family’s wealth. It was only natural for him now to evaluate the situation and choose the path that would benefit him the most.
Replacing the plaque resulted in a loss of prestige.
Trading prestige for time and benefits was a strategy Gu Zhicheng was familiar with. He had tasted the sweetness of it before, and now he was simply “reverting to his old ways.”
Unfortunately, she was not her mother.
The other party’s hypocritical face could not deceive her!
“Change it!” Gu Qingluan raised her head, her clear eyes sparkling.
A horizontal board with the words ‘Jun Residence’ engraved on it was hung above the Gu family’s main gate.
The corners of Gu Zhicheng’s eyes kept twitching, and he forced a smile. “Luan’ er, are you satisfied now?”
“I’m satisfied.”
However, she’d be more satisfied if he were to get lost.
“Shall we go inside then?” Gu Zhicheng asked.
Gu Qingluan leaped off the carriage, her dress fluttering, and disappeared from the sight of the crowd.
A man dressed in black rushed through the crowd and approached the man who had noticed the exchange between Gu Qingluan and Liu Meng. He anxiously said, “Master, the young master is missing!”
