Old Master Gu and Huo Yanmei’s faces changed, they quickly escaped to avoid the glass fragments.
Hiss.
A piece of fragment had lacerated Old Master Gu’s face and blood started dripping down his face.
Huo Yanmei quickly rushed over to help Old Master Gu and she lashed out at Gu Mohan, “Mohan, have you gone crazy? He’s your grandfather and I’m your mother! How dare you hurt us just because of this woman!”
Gu Xiao’er narrowed his eyes, replying heartlessly, “I’m not your son! Who do you think you are? In my eyes, you’re just a bunch of incorrigible people. An old man who can’t wait to suck everyone’s blood dry and an unfaithful woman who had affair after affair. I don’t want to see the both of you at all!”
“You!”
Old Master Gu and Huo Yanmei were shaking in agitation.
Gu Xiao’er was Gu Mohan’s split personality, all the hate and displeasure Gu Mohan had hidden away deep in his heart had all been reflected through Gu Xiao’er’s behavior.
“Wow, Daddy, you’re so cool. You’re my idol.” Little Munchkin ran over and hugged Gu Mohan’s calf.
Gu Mohan glanced at Tang Mo’er. “What about you, do you think I’m cool?”
“…”
Just as Tang Mo’er was just about to speak after seeing him acting so cool, the man suddenly collapsed onto the ground.
Boom.
“Gu Xiao’er, what’s wrong with you?” Tang Mo’er quickly crouched down to check on him.
It hurts.
His head hurt.
Gu Xiao’er looked at Tang Mo’er’s beautiful face, his vision slowly turned blurry. Oh sh*t, the real Gu Mohan was coming back!
Gu Xiao’er then fainted.
…
Tang Mo’er’s pupils contracted once Gu Mohan fainted. “Help, someone help!”
“Madam, what’s wrong with President?” Yan Dong had run over.
“He suffered a blow in the back of his head earlier. Bring him back to the room now and get a doctor to come over.”
“Yes, Madam.”
Yan Dong brought Gu Mohan away and when Tang Mo’er prepared to follow them, Huo Yanmei started screaming again. “Tang Mo’er, don’t you dare leave! Old Master Gu’s injured, you are to blame!”
Tang Mo’er stopped walking, she had Niuniu follow Yan Dong and turned around to glance at Old Master Gu.
Old Master Gu’s face had been lacerated. He shot a baleful stare at Tang Mo’er. “Tell me the password! Now!”
Despicable. Tang Mo’er sneered. She walked in front, stopping right before Old Master Gu. “Old Master, I suppose we have some scores to settle. Were you the one behind the car accident three years ago?”
Old Master’s eyes shifted. “You already know?”
“Yes.”
“You’re right, I was behind it all.” Old Master Gu admitted without even caring about the consequences of his words. “So what?”
What could she even do to him?
A powerful voice was heard. “Old Fogey Gu, how dare you bully my granddaughter like that, do you take me for a dead person?
Old Master Gu and Huo Yanmei turned around to look at the same time, a group of people had arrived.
Old Madam Lu, Ning Qing, was leading at the front while Lu Jinwen, Jun Mosheng, as well as Lin Xuanji followed behind.
Lin Xuanji.
Huo Yanmei was stupefied when she saw Lin Xuanji. Her gaze was fixed on Lin Xuanji’s face. Old Master Gu paused for a moment. Old Madam Lu… Old Madam Lu had returned to the Capital!
Old Madam Lu had made a name for herself back then. She had managed to become the queen of the entertainment industry though she was a rich man’s daughter who had fallen from grace. She eventually managed to find her parentage, being the biological granddaughter of a wine magnate, she had managed to keep the Lu family distinguished till today.
Not only that, she even gave birth to two sons and a daughter, being the object of everyone’s envy. Old Madam Lu had all it takes for one to manage the distinguished Lu family and she had her ways of making sure everything went in her way. No other woman could compare to her.
Old Master Gu’s aura had instantly diminished when faced with Old Madam Lu.
Old Madam Lu then walked in front, snatching away the walking stick in Old Master Gu’s hand and she hit him with it. “Old Fogey Gu, you were pretty decent a few decades ago but I can’t believe you’ve turned so audacious to even bully my granddaughter now! I should have just trampled on you till you died back then if I had known earlier!
“Once my husband and I left the Capital, you actually thought you’ve become a king when you’re just a monkey? You really think that no one can do anything to you? Let me help your parents teach you a lesson today, I’m gonna beat the hell out of you!”
With that, Old Master Gu was smacked by Old Madam Lu and his body was almost going to give way, given his old age.
He quickly pressed the walking stick down. “Stop hitting me, Old Madam Lu, I’m going to warn you to stop now. Your granddaughter loves my grandson, she still requires my permission to enter the Gu family!”
Old Madam Lu wanted to pull the walking stick back, but she hadn’t expected Old Master Gu to have so much strength.
Ugh!
So Old Madam Lu just let go, letting Old Master Gu just fall backwards.
Crack! Old Master Gu’s waist seemed to break!
Old Madam Lu just stood there, scolding Old Master Gu while pointing her finger at him. “You’re still thinking about my granddaughter entering the Gu family? Humph!
“Old Fogey Gu, you’re so thick-skinned. No matter how I look at it, it still appears that it’s your grandson who’s trying to latch onto my granddaughter. Let me be frank with you, I really don’t approve of your grandson. He actually allowed his grandfather and parents to fool around outside. It’s already been years, and you guys still aren’t gone. He’s not even able to protect his wife and son, incompetent man!
“I’ll be bringing my granddaughter and great-grandson back today. If he still wants them, ask him to kneel down in front of the Lu family’s door!”
Old Master Gu, “…”
Old Madam Lu is still as impressive as she used to be. And sh*t, his waist had really broken.
“Daughter-in-law, hurry up and help me up. We must go to the hospital right away. These people are all gangsters, we cannot afford to provoke them.”
“Okay, Dad.” Huo Yanmei lifted her leg, wanting to walk towards Old Master Gu.
She then heard a delicate voice behind. “Yanmei, we sisters haven’t seen each other in so long. Was it 10 years, or was it 20?”
Stunned, Huo Yanmei stopped, her feet suddenly turned so heavy, it seemed she couldn’t even move even an inch.
Sisters?
That’s right, a few decades ago in the Capital, the eldest daughter of the Huo family and one of the twins of the Lin family, Lin Xuanji, were best friends.
They founded DHA Diamonds together, those times were the best memories of their lives. But now, they would never be able to go back to those days.
Huo Yanmei turned around, glancing at Lin Xuanji in trepidation.
Lin Xuanji hadn’t aged much at all, the romantic maiden had completely transformed. She had become even more gentle and her beauty even more alluring, attracting everyone’s attention.
Now that she stood in front of Huo Yanmei, alive and well, Huo Yanmei’s hands were balled into two fists by her side. Within seconds, Huo Yanmei experienced a multitude of emotions. She felt jealous, indignant, guilty and was even… envious.
Huo Yanmei knew for a fact that Lin Xuanji had led a life that she had envisioned to have all along. Lin Xuanji hadn’t changed at all, but she on the other hand had changed so much.
As the years had passed, she had gradually aged and become the hateful and callous woman she was now. Where had the charming woman from the past gone?
