Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
On the road, Si Zhengting was looking ahead. His cold and indifferent look remained, but that feeling of distance had vanished.
There was no traffic on a Saturday. After about half an hour, they arrived at the Gu villa.
The car had just stopped, but Zhuang Nainai had already unbuckled her seatbelt in a flurry, pushed the car door open, and got off.
Next to her, Si Zhengting, who had just parked the car, had wanted to get off and open the car door for her. However, after seeing her behavior, his hand, which was unbuckling the seatbelt, paused. Immediately, frustration could be seen in his eyes.
It had been five years, but her impetuous nature did not change at all.
Slam! While his mind was wandering off, Zhuang Nainai had closed the car door. When Si Zhengting was about to get off the car, he saw a few members of the Gu family walk out uniformly.
Gu Xingshan was walking ahead of the others. It was obvious that she had put in effort in her appearance today. She looked delighted when she was walking out. However, when she saw Zhuang Nainai alighting from the car alone, she instantly pulled a long face.
Gu Xinghao followed closely behind her, looking flippant as always. He stretched his neck to look towards their direction. After noticing that Zhuang Nainai was alone, he broke the silence, “Oh no, Brother-in-law really didn’t come!”
Li Yufeng, who always displayed an elegant and arrogant demeanor, walked out slowly next to Gu Deshou.
When both of them saw that Zhuang Nainai came alone, they looked disappointed.
Even though Zhuang Nainai had said that Mr. Si was busy, they were still holding on to some hope deep in their hearts.
“Sister!” Gu Xingshan took a step forward smilingly. “I heard from Mom that a woman should be accompanied by her husband when she first returns to her parental home after getting married. But, why didn’t Mr. Si accompany you here?”
Upon saying this, her eyes widened and she cupped her mouth. “Sister, could it be that… you and Mr. Si are not getting along well?”
Gu Xinghao added fuel to the fire infuriatingly beside her. “It must be so! How can Brother-in-law like a country bumpkin like her!”
“Enough!” Li Yufeng seemed unpleasant as she interrupted both of them. Then, she looked at Zhuang Nainai nonchalantly with a tinge of scorn on her face. “This is all because you have been living outside with that lowly b*tch. Now, you cannot even beguile your husband’s heart. What else can you do?!”
As soon as Zhuang Nainai heard this, her fury was triggered.
Putting aside whether or not she could beguile her husband’s heart, how was this because of Mother Zhuang?
And did she just say b*tch?
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes narrowed. “Please be careful about your choice of words. After all, you are the Madam of a wealthy family, your family background and upbringing must be extraordinary. The word b*tch coming out of your mouth will very much tarnish the images of good breeding you all have, don’t you think so? Those who are unaware might even think that some uncultured and vulgar woman was putting on a show for everyone to enjoy!”
Li Yufeng’s face turned gloomy. “Zhuang Nainai, who are you insulting?!”
Zhuang Nainai shrugged. “I didn’t say that it was you. I am just stating the facts.”
Li Yufeng’s chest was moving up and down fiercely as she gasped for air. It seemed like she was extremely furious. “Zhuang Nainai, you don’t even recognize your relatives, as expected! I am your biological mother! She’s just a thief who stole my child; how dare you still protect her! You-you…”
“That’s right, Sister, you shouldn’t say such things to anger Mother. It’s all because that bad person stole you, that’s why you learned to be so disrespectful. Look, even Mr. Si dislikes you because of this and does not want to come home with you!”
“Who said we are not getting along?”
Si Zhengting’s insipid voice resounded in the air slowly. Shortly after, the Maybach’s door sounded off. His tall and well-built figure emerged from the driver’s seat.
