Mr. Xu didn’t understand what Guan Meiyi meant, and he didn’t take it to heart. He directly led Guan Meiyi into the mansion.
In the living room, the senior Mr. Gu sat in the center. Gu Zhilin, Gu Zhiming, and Gu Zhihuan were also there. Fang Hua was sitting next to Gu Zhilin and looked at Guan Meiyi with a strange expression.
Guan Meiyi stood there calmly, allowing those people to size her up. The last time she saw Fang Hua was at the Gu family’s anniversary party. At that time, Fang Hua was not married yet. She was a young and arrogant girl full of vigor. Together with other girls, she had tried to humiliate Guan Meiyi, but in the end, she brought it upon herself.
Among all the people present, the person who hated Guan Meiyi the most should be Fang Hua.
At this moment, Gu Zhiqian’s mother, Zhao Huimin, arrived. When she saw Guan Meiyi, her expression froze. It was obvious that she hadn’t known that Guan Meiyi would come.
She looked around and sat down, feeling angry. She was Gu Zhiqian’s mother, but no one told her that Guan Meiyi was here. Did anyone in the Gu family take her seriously?
With the arrival of Zhao Huimin, the atmosphere became even weirder.
Fang Hua’s eyes flashed with a sinister light. Looking at Guan Meiyi, she was filled with intense hatred.
Why didn’t that chandelier smash Guan Meiyi to death back then? !
It didn’t even kill Zhao Huimin!
Now, both of them were good and sound here. In the end, only she ended up the most pathetic. She had to marry Gu Zhilin and endure everything!
Why?!
Fang Hua cleared her throat. “No matter what, you’re still a junior. This is your first time coming to the mansion, and you actually came here empty-handed. How rude you are! Is this the manners of your Guan family? Or you just know nothing about good manners?”
Guan Meiyi sneered silently. Fang Hua was still young and couldn’t keep her cool.
Guan Meiyi smiled. “As Gu Zhiqian’s wife, it’s my fault that I didn’t prepare a gift when I came to the Gu family to see the elders for the first time.”
Seeing Guan Meiyi’s sincere attitude, Fang Hua’s eyes revealed an arrogant gleam.
However, Guan Meiyi suddenly changed the topic, “However, I didn’t expect to be asked to come to the Gu mansion today. When Mr. Xu came with the message, I had just finished a day’s work and returned home. I hadn’t changed my clothes yet. Isn’t right, Mr. Xu?”
Mr. Xu, who was standing at the side, was surprised by her sudden question toward him. His face stiffened, and then he nodded indiscernibly.
“So this is your excuse for your rudeness toward your elders?” Fang Hua had no intention to let Guan Meiyi off just like that, “It’s one thing for you to come empty-handed, but you actually made us wait for you for so long. You’re a big shot celebrity and think the people from Gu must fawn over you, right?”
Fang Hua was making things difficult for Guan Meiyi, but everyone in the Gu family listened. No one said a word to stop her. Only Zhao Huimin looked at Guan Meiyi uneasily, but she did not say anything.
“Of course I don’t think that way. It was precisely because I didn’t dare to neglect my elders that I especially took a shower and changed my clothes before coming here,” Guan Meiyi said slowly, then smiled faintly. “But, big sister-in-law, you’re wrong on one thing. In the Gu family, only Grandfather and mother-in-law are my elders. What kind of elder are you?”
