All of a sudden, she saw Mrs. Gu at home, seemingly waiting for her.
Then suddenly, she became a little unaccustomed.
Mrs. Gu called Housekeeper Gu as usual this morning and asked how Gu Xiaoxiao was doing.
She knew that she liked Henry.
She had raised her for 20 years, so how could she not feel sorry for her?
Seeing her so decadent every day, she couldn't bear to see her like this.
In the end, she decided to stand on Gu Xiaoxiao's side.
As for that girl, she was not sure whether she was real or not now.
It was not worth hurting her daughter who had been raised for more than 20 years because of her.
However, Butler Gu told her that Gu Xiaoxiao had not returned home for the whole night.
When Mrs. Gu saw Gu Xiaoxiao come back, she happily greeted her. "Come on, why did you come back so late?"
Gu Xiaoxiao had always been very obedient. She had never returned overnight.
Mrs. Gu sounded strange.
But her eyes were full of love.
Gu Xiaoxiao was already in a bad mood.
If Mrs. Gu had been willing to help her before, she might not have ended up like this.
If she could marry Henry, it would be very powerful for the Gu family.
She didn't know that Mrs. Gu used to support her.
Why did she suddenly disagree?
At the thought of this, Gu Xiaoxiao's heart was full of resentment. She was not as enthusiastic and obedient as before to greet her adoptive mother.
Gu Xiaoxiao said, "I'm tired. I'll go up and rest!"
Gu Xiaoxiao was dull-looking, and her eyes were slightly red.
Henry had gone too far by doing so.
Others might not know that Xiaoxiao liked him, but she did.
Mrs. Gu knew that Xiaoxiao was in a bad mood, so she was very patient. "I know that you're in a bad mood, so I came back early today. I asked the housekeeper to cook for you. You will like it. Come and have some!"
Mrs. Gu pulled Gu Xiaoxiao to the table, ready to let her sit down and eat.
However, Gu Xiaoxiao did not appreciate it.
She shook off Mrs. Gu's hand and said, "When I begged you, you didn't help me. What are you doing now? Don't pretend to be a loving mother. Do you think I'm not your biological daughter, so..."
"Shut up!" Mrs. Gu rebuked, "No matter how good Henry is, he doesn't love you. I'm afraid that you'll be wronged after you get married. With such a good condition, it's not easy for you to find a suitable match and love you. Why do you have to suffer?"
"But I love him!" Gu Xiaoxiao roared, and she could not help but burst into anger.
Tears trickled down her cheeks like pearls.
Mrs. Gu walked up to her and held her in her arms. She patted her shoulder gently and said, "Good girl, it's okay. Don't cry, don't cry. I will help you if you want anything."
