Chapter 335 - 335 335 Messing with That Face Every Day Like

Chapter 335: Chapter 335: Messing with That Face Every Day Like a Crazy Person Chapter 335: Chapter 335: Messing with That Face Every Day Like a Crazy Person “Brother Gu…” Ning Wanru’s voice was filled with confusion and incomprehension.

For a moment, she didn’t quite grasp the meaning of Gu Qingfeng’s words.

“Let’s start with this address. You call me Brother Gu, naturally you should call my wife ‘sister-in-law.’ As for your title of Second Lady, the modern society has already arrived, and your foundations are stable, so no one is going to harm you. From now on, there will be only one lady of Gu Garden. I will announce this at the upcoming family recognition banquet.”

The living room resonated with Gu Qingfeng’s voice, which, despite sounding old, was steady and powerful.

And he knew that his attitude today was of the utmost importance.

A single misstep and the chance of Lady Yu forgiving him would vanish forever.

Ning Wanru’s body trembled.

Her heart was also pounding.

She truly had not anticipated that Lady Yu was still alive.

Even after she had recovered from the shock, she lacked her usual grace and ease.

Because in front of so many people, Gu Qingfeng had directly erased her title of Second Lady.

Even though she had already stopped caring about it.

But, even if she didn’t care, it was something she should have proposed herself, not for Gu Qingfeng to bluntly state.

Today, the moment she had stepped into Gu Garden, she found herself in a reactive position.

For decades, this was the first time she had placed herself in such a passive situation.

For a moment, she, who was usually eloquent and great at acting, was left speechless.

Meanwhile, Lady Yu’s hand was held in Gu Qiaoqiao’s palm, feeling a series of comforting breaths spreading from her hand to her heart.

It pacified her agitated and indignant emotions.

So, at this moment, Lady Yu appeared composed and dignified.

She spoke softly, “It’s been fifty years, Lady Chang has aged, I remember you were just over twenty at that time…”

Then, turning to Gu Cheng, she said, “You must be Brother Chang’s son, right? Help your mother to a seat. At her age, we should sit down for a talk about some matters…”

Gu Cheng was as stunned as Ning Wanru.

His heart, too, was engulfed by a tempest.

What’s going on here?

Didn’t mother say that Old Patriarch Gu’s wife had died?

Was this a resurrection?

And what was shocking was that they had not received any hint of this in advance.

Being overconfident from their recent successes, they had grown complacent.

But they had not expected that once Gu Qingfeng truly began looking out for them, they would indeed not get any information.

Gu Cheng’s expression was extremely telling.

Old Patriarch Gu’s demeanor was very calm, as was his wife’s, as if they had already anticipated their reactions.

It must be said, their timing for today’s visit was off, and their calculations had gone awry.

They were too passive.

To have not received any news in advance was indeed unexpected.

These days, their home was in utter chaos.

First, their mother made a scene at the hospital, then he was reprimanded by Elder Shen, followed by his mother breaking his forehead.

Next, in a fit of insanity, she accidentally smashed a Gold Jade Stone Carving.

Then, they had to compensate Yubao Square with twenty-six thousand.

Now, the Gu Tianfeng family had arrived in the Imperial Capital.

The Old Patriarch had become wary of him.

Thinking it would be as easy as before to take a few items and offset the loss of twenty-six thousand was no longer possible.

Or more precisely, it was impossible.

And what was most perplexing was, why did the Old Patriarch keep bringing up the Chang Family today? What did he mean?

Involuntarily, he turned his resentful gaze towards his mother, whose face was powdered but still couldn’t conceal the signs of age.

These days she did nothing productive, just obsessively fussing over her face like someone possessed.
