The alley in front of Gu Juan's house is a bit too narrow for cars to drive in, so Yang Yunhai parked the car outside and led Gu Lingling inside. Even before reaching Gu Juan's house, they could hear a noisy commotion coming from there. A crowd had gathered outside, all looking in. Yang Yunhai held Gu Lingling's hand and walked to the house next door. The neighboring house was unexpectedly empty, yet Yang Yunhai simply led the way inside. The sound from the Gu Family's house heard outside was like arguing, but it was unclear what they were fighting about. However, the place Yang Yunhai brought Gu Lingling allowed them not only to hear the conversation inside, but also to see the people through a small hole in the wall. Wang Xintao was slumped on the floor, while Gu Juan was tightly held in Old Mrs. Gu's arms. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝔫𝔢𝔱 The one doing the yelling was Wang Meili. She hadn't expected that even after Lv Zhongliang said this much, Wang Xintao was still not giving up. If not for her coming back early today, things surely would have gone wrong. "It's fine if you don't want Gu Juan to marry my son, but this child must be handed over to me when born," Wang Xintao said. This was her bottom line for compromise. "Fine, hurry and leave," Wang Meili said disgustedly, "If you ever dare to come for Juanzi again, I'll tell you that you will never have the child." Look how frightened Gu Juan is — she's pregnant with a big belly. What if something happens? "Wang Meili, if you dare act like that, don't blame me for not being courteous," Wang Xintao said, standing up wobbly. "And I hope you have some decency and stop coming to my house." After finishing her words, she cast a mocking glance at the overly protective Old Mrs. Gu, "Old lady, watch your daughter-in-law properly and don't let her flaunt around." "What do you mean?" Even a fool like Old Mrs. Gu could hear the meaning behind Wang Xintao's words. "You can ask your good daughter-in-law about that," Wang Xintao retorted, aware that she couldn't completely antagonize Wang Meili; otherwise, what if she refused to hand over the child? "Grandma, I feel so uncomfortable," just as Old Mrs. Gu intended to ask further, Gu Juan suddenly spoke up, "I want to lie down, Grandma, stay with me." Wang Xintao laughed mockingly, tidying her hair, tousled due to the earlier brawl, and cast a meaningful glance at Gu Juan hiding in Old Mrs. Gu's embrace. This girl seemed unimpressive before, but surprisingly, she was as shamelessly cunning as her mother. Even though she clearly knew what good things her mother was up to, she still protected her and kept it a secret. If Wang Xintao had considered welcoming Gu Juan into their family before, now she'd rather never. This Gu Juan and her disgraceful mother are just family wreckers; whoever marries her is doomed. Look at how much they've harmed the Gu Family now! "Stop." Wang Xintao wanted to leave but was halted by Wang Meili, "Would the cousin really leave ?" "What else do you want to do?" Wang Xintao glared at Wang Meili. "Since my daughter is carrying your grandchild, if she doesn't eat well and it affects the child, then it won't be good," Wang Meili said with a grin. Previously afraid Wang Xintao would find out, now that she knows, Wang Meili wouldn't miss a chance to extort her. "Wang Meili, don't go too far," Wang Xintao hadn't expected Wang Meili to be so shameless, even trying to ask for money. "Seems like cousin doesn't care much for this grandchild," Wang Meili sneered. Asking for money was tantamount to asking for her life. But today, Wang Meili was determined to make Wang Xintao desperate. "It's best if, next time cousin visits us, she doesn't make such a big scene. While neighbors might overhear without issue, if it scares the baby in Gu Juan's belly, that's a problem."
