Chapter 411: Aunt Flo Has Arrived

"This is the last time." Gu Chunhai looked at Gu Juan and said, "If you dare lay a hand on her again, don’t blame your uncle for not being polite to you."

"Uncle, I don’t understand what you’re talking about?" Gu Juan snapped back to reality and looked at Gu Chunhai, although she certainly understood what he meant.

"Whether you understand or not, you don’t need to explain to me, just remember what I’ve said." Gu Chunhai replied, "If you still consider me as your uncle."

From start to finish, not even a glance was given to Wang Meili.

"It’s simply outrageous!" After Gu Chunhai left, Wang Meili was so angry she smashed the vase on the table, "How can he treat me like this, how dare he!"

Even an ordinary person can at least say hello.

Gu Juan gave Wang Meili a helpless look, "He’s always been like this, hasn’t he?"

Always treating them mother and daughter as if they were invisible, and now he’s actually reprimanding her over Gu Lingling? Impolite? She’d like to see how impolite her uncle would dare to be.

Gu Juan glanced at Wang Meili, who was still in a state of fury and grievance, and didn’t bother with her as she went straight into the house.

Gu Chunhai was like a thorn in Wang Meili’s heart.

If she were Gu Juan, she would pull out this thorn, even if it means dying of pain, it’s better than being worn down by a dull blade like this.

So in some sense, as the Yangtze River pushes forward the waves, Gu Juan is far more ruthless than Wang Meili.

"Chunhai, why are you here?" Gu Chunhua was coming out from Old Mrs. Gu’s house and saw her mother carrying groceries home, "Come, let’s go eat."

Gu Chunhai looked at Old Mrs. Gu with disappointment; did she not know anything about Wang Meili’s antics at all?

"Meili often reminds you." The following words from Old Mrs. Gu erased the last trace of guilt in Gu Chunhai’s heart.

Indeed, pitiful people have their hateful aspects.

This old mother of his... forget it, he’s too lazy to deal with it now.

"This..." Why did he leave without saying a word?

Old Mrs. Gu sighed.

She doesn’t like living here one bit; aside from the costs, there’s not a single person to talk to.

Usually, she’s home alone. If she were in Nanshui Village, she could visit and chat with a group of old ladies.

But now, the people here don’t even want to talk to her or pay attention for a moment.

They used to be quite enthusiastic.

Old Mrs. Gu walked back dejectedly with the basket to make lunch for those two women.

Gu Lingling learned that Gu Chunhai beat up Ma Chuang through Yao Jingsong, who only mentioned it casually. He never felt anything towards Gu Chunhai as his father.

Gu Lingling nodded, then asked him, "How is the workshop going now? Consult with your master when you have time, don’t act on your own accord."

Yao Jingsong rolled his eyes at Gu Lingling, "You’re the best at boosting others’ morale and deflating yourself."

"Where’s your bird?" Not wanting to continue the topic with Gu Lingling, he asked.

"Probably out playing." Gu Lingling frowned saying that, and then quickly returned to her room.

A bird that had just flown back, "..."

How much does she dislike it?

Gu Lingling was unsure whether to cry or laugh.

Her period finally started.

No wonder she felt some stomach discomfort earlier. Although she consulted a doctor after falling into the water, the doctor said she had a cold uterus and would likely have stomach pain during her period.

Why does she feel something different now, with no other sensations?

The bird pursed its lips and placed the fruit from its claws onto Gu Lingling’s desk.

If it weren’t for this Black Bird King, she’d be in pain.
