Spending the Villain’s Money to Extend My Life
chapter-420

Chapter 420 - That sounded like good user experience. (2)

Mother Gu was very angry.

Truth was, she wanted to go back to the capital but she also wanted her brother and sister-in-law to back her up and to receive the protection from the Zhang family.

She no longer had a husband. Now Old Mr. Zhang and her brother are the ones that could back her.

She found Zhang Sheng’s strong attitude a difficult pill to swallow.

Her brother doted on her before she had gotten married.

He would go along with whatever she had wanted.

What she didn’t know was that doting her as much as he did was Zhang Sheng’s biggest regret.

He had spoiled her so much that she did not have good judgement on her own and was bad at reading people. She could not stand on her own two legs and she was bitter!

Anyway he looked at it, she was not the girl he had once known.

“Lucky you didn’t raise Shishi. You would not be able to raise anyone other than heart disease and spoiled rotten!”

Mother Gu’s body shook. “Are you really my real brother?”

Looking at Chen Yunping, who was smiling bitterly next to him, Mother Gu was even angrier than she was before!

Were they all laughing at her?

“What did that unfamilial girl say to you today?”

That was the only reason that she could come up with.

Gu Shishi had ratted her out in front of her brother!

Her brother had no idea what was going on; how could he only listened to Gu Shishi’s version of the events?

“It was Gu Jiangxin’s idea to marry her off to Huo Sishen. I tried to visit her later on but Huo Sishen’s butler wouldn’t let me!

“I was going to talk to her at a banquet but Wushuang was sick that day so I had to head to the hospital first.

“I had wanted to invite her to join me in afternoon tea, shopping, and spa but Wushuang said Shishi had to work and is busy even on the weekends!”

Mother Gu was about to start crying.

How did these all became her fault?

“Even, even when I tried to force her to get a divorce, I had my reason to do so. Besides… I… “

How could that child still hate her after all that had happened to her?

Tears streamed down Mother Gu’s cheeks.

Zhang Sheng was still forcing himself to listen to Mother Gu at the beginning. Now he was just stunned speechless.

He had no words!

Chen Yunping, next to him, knew him well.

The angrier he was, the quieter he was.

When he started to talk again, he would be bringing hell down from on high!

Chen Yunping quickly stopped Mother Gu. “Calm down and stop crying. You’ve tried to push Shishi for a divorce and…” Didn’t she just get married?

Whatever had happened? She was utterly baffled.

She, too, was a mother. Never mind about forcing her own child to have a divorce; she had never even heard of that before!

Hearing her words, Mother Gu was even more certain that Gu Shishi had said something to them behind her back.

She blamed her for asking her to get a divorce.

“It wasn’t like she did it!”

She quickly told them the entire story – about how she had listened to a fortuneteller and asked Gu Shishi to temporarily get a divorce for Gu Wushuang’s health but all she got was attitude from Gu Shishi.

Toward the end, she felt that Gu Shishi was too ruthless.

She had already decided to keep this a secret and never spill a word to her brother.

But knowing that Gu Shishi had told on her, now she had no choice but to spill it all.

But she had her reasons for doing what she did, she quickly explained that to her big brother and her sister-in-law.

Then, with a loud SLAM, Zhang Sheng’s palm brushed passed her cheek and landed on the edge of the table.

Mother Gu was taken aback.

Her messy hair was even stirred up by his palm!

Zhang Sheng’s palm never struck her on her cheek, just brushing passed it narrowly, making her ear hurt from that!

“Lao Zhang!”

Chen Yunping quickly turned her attention to her husband and checked on his hand.

Mother Gu was at loss.

“… … You struck me?”
