The crowd automatically parted to create a pathway.
A woman in white gracefully approached.
Her stunning beauty captivated the onlookers.
The young and old women exchanged a glance, revealing a hint of panic in their eyes.
However, the older woman, being more experienced, quickly regained her composure and raised her eyebrows in anger. “Where did this little girl come from? Stop spouting nonsense here.”
With a calm and composed demeanor, Gu Qingluan smiled faintly. “Why the apprehension? Is it because you fear that I will unveil your deceitful intentions?”
“What do you know? It’s none of your business. Mind your own business!”
“Hah!” Gu Qingluan’s expression suddenly turned serious. “You want to take my son away. How could that have nothing to do with me?”
Flinching in astonishment, Feng Yuanxi widened his eyes.
Did Beautiful Sister just claim that he was her son?
The older woman hesitated for a moment, then scolded, “Nonsense! He is my grandson. When did he become your son?”
Glancing at her, Gu Qingluan clicked her tongue twice. “You may dress the part, but your face is truly unsightly. With your appearance, I can hardly imagine how your son would look. Even his mother must have been ordinary-looking. How could she have given birth to such a handsome child?”
Everyone looked at the older woman, then at the young woman beside her, and found Gu Qingluan’s words quite reasonable.
“This girl is making a lot of sense. It’s rare to see such a beautiful child. His parents must be extraordinarily attractive. This lady herself is so beautiful that she could easily be his mother.”
The older woman’s face revealed a touch of sadness. “Xiao Bao resembles his birth mother. His birth mother was a stunning beauty, but her life was short-lived. The person beside me is the stepmother that I found for Xiao Bao. Xiao Bao became resentful because of this, and that’s why he ran away from home.”
As she spoke, she wiped away tears with her sleeve.
The young woman lowered her eyes. “Mother, it’s all my fault. I couldn’t make Xiao Bao like me, probably because I’m not as pretty as his birth mother.”
Initially, the people who had wavered due to Gu Qingluan’s words were now completely bewildered.
Who was telling the truth?
The statements of this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law made sense as well.
It wasn’t uncommon for children to dislike their stepmothers, and running away from home was not out of the question.
Stunned, Jing Feng held Feng Yuanxi in his arms, his eyes wide open.
If he weren’t involved, he would almost believe their nonsense!
As for the easily persuaded onlookers, most of them now leaned towards the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Could Miss Gu really change the course of events?
Then, they witnessed Gu Qingluan’s sudden realization as she nodded, “So that’s how it is.”
The older woman sneered, “If you’ve understood, then don’t cause trouble. You see how good-looking my Xiao Bao is, and everyone wants to snatch him away?”
Gu Qingluan neither confirmed nor denied, and she calmly asked, “Do you have only one child in your family?”
“That’s right! Xiao Bao is our family’s sole successor for three generations.”
A smile tugged at the corners of Gu Qingluan’s lips. “Well, that makes it easier! Xiaonan, come out.”
“Ah!”
The crowd exclaimed in shock, their eyes widening as a young child emerged from behind Gu Qingluan.
“They look so similar!”
“They’re practically identical.”
Jing Feng also widened his eyes, staring incredulously at Gu Xiaonan.
The older and younger women wore expressions of disbelief.
“No, how could this…” they stammered.
Gu Qingluan remained unruffled as she calmly remarked, “You have only one grandson, but I have two sons.”
The two women were taken aback.
Never could they have anticipated that the charming child they had set their sights on had an identical twin brother!
Their previous words suddenly lost their strength and became feeble.
“Only twins could bear such striking resemblance. What more can you say now? Why not enlighten us about your intentions of taking my son away?”
Gu Qingluan’s smile was full of grace as she gazed at the two women.
Her beauty appeared enchanting and captivating, but in the eyes of the two women, it resembled that of a devil..
