Zhou Ping was so tired and weak that her head was ringing. When she heard his voice, she thought that she was hallucinating.
“Mother? Mother…”
Zhou Ping raised her head slowly. She was shocked to see the familiar figure of her son standing before her!
“Mother, have you thought it through?”
‘When she saw Gu Jinxuan’s calm expression, Zhou Ping suddenly felt rage surge in her heart!
“Do you still remember your mother? Look at the state I’m in. Are you satisfied now? The Zhou family has been devastated, and I work like a coolie every day. Does this give you sufficient standing in the Gu family? They won’t make things difficult for you anymore, am I right?”
Gu Jinxuan just looked at her calmly.
It was as if Zhou Ping was going to vent all her grievances.
“My family was already poor when I was young. When I was a child, I did not have many nice things. Later on, I married your father and had four children. Do you know how hard it was to raise all of you? I thought that with so many sons, I would be the most important person in the Gu family. But look at
what happened.
“Your Oldest Cousin, Second Cousin and Fourth Cousin are all more successful than you. Your Oldest Aunt and Second Aunt have always suppressed me. Isn’t it because their families are more powerful than mine? I helped your uncle so that I could have a better life in the Gu family. But look at you. How
could you be so stupid? You destroyed the Zhou family to please the Gu family. Tell me… Little Five… Jinxuan…”
Gu Jinxuan listened for a while, then tumed away without a word.
He angrily went back to the place he was staying and kicked the table over. The teapot on the table fell to the floor with a crash and smashed into smithereens.
“Fifth Master…”
pαпᵈα-noνɐ1.сoМ The two men he had brought with him had been by his side all along.
Gu Jinxuan suppressed his anger. He was not going to stay here any longer.
“Buy me a train ticket immediately. I want to go back to the capital. The two of you are to keep watch here. Make sure she survives, but ignore the rest!”
‘The two men were stunned and exchanged a glance, then hurriedly responded. “Yes!”
Early the next morning, Gu Jinxuan returned to the capital by train.
Gu Jinhang heard the news before he had even reached the capital.
“Second Master, Fifth Master has gone back to the capital. He is utterly disappointed in Third Madam. Third Madam still blames Fifth Master for not helping the Zhou family. She has not asked about Seventh Young Master or Eighth Young Master at all. Fifth Master left two men there to keep watch and
ensure she survives, but he does not intend to bother with the rest.”
Gu Jinhang hung up. Gu Qingyao was spending the day there, so he told her about it.
Gu Qingyao was surprised. “Fifth Cousin is back?”
Gu Jinhang nodded. “Yes! I guess that he is utterly disappointed. He has already been very filial to Third Aunt to have stayed so long over there.”
Gu Qingyao cuddled her baby and said disdainfully, “People like that are both pitiful and disgusting. She was misguided by the Zhou family when she was growing up and was taught that boys are more important than girls. She even has had the idea that she should help her older brother at the expense of
her own family.

“By the way, did she mention Little Seven and Little Eight?”
Gu Jinhang shook his head. “No!”
Gu Qingyao was rather upset. Gu Qingyao was more concerned about her own younger cousins than about the Zhou family.
“As a mother, she really is too selfish. Little Seven and Little Eight are about to sit for their university entrance exams, yet she doesn’t show any concern about them. How have they been?”
Gu Jinhang said, “They’re fine, just rather quiet.. Don’t worry, Gu men are not that fragile!”
