Of course, Anhao didn’t know that her white and blue outfit, which looked simple and casual, was actually a new limited edition design by a famous Italian women’s clothing brand at the beginning of the year. After it was shown at Fashion Week a week ago, many people wanted to buy it, but they had no way to do so.
But now, Gu Anhao was wearing the same clothes.
Anhao didn’t know what was good and thought that Lin Qing had prepared a new set of clothes for her on the way here.
Therefore, when she saw Gu Shishi’s face that had turned green from anger, she could not help but raise her eyebrows slightly and curl her lips coldly in Gu Shishi’s direction.
Gu Shishi dug her fingers into the sofa and tried to hold it in. She almost jumped up and scolded Gu Anhao.
However, every time she flared up, Mrs. Gu would give her a look, meaning to ask her to hold it in.
Gu Shishi had never suffered such a grievance before. In the past, Gu Anhao was always the one who was bullied in the Gu family. Now, she had to swallow her grievances here!
“Mr. Zuo actually came to the Gu family. Why didn’t you tell me before you came? I could have specially arranged for it.”Gu Tianming walked forward, but when he saw that Zuo Hancheng did not reach out his hand, he put down his hand. He laughed awkwardly and turned to look at Gu Anhao, who had a calm expression on her face.
” Anhao, why didn’t you tell your family about your marriage with Mr. Zuo? Now that you’re going back to your mother’s house with Zuo Hancheng, you didn’t tell me in advance. You’re really insensible…” Gu Tianming had a smile on his face and was extremely enthusiastic.
Without waiting for Anhao’s reply, he turned around and continued to smile at Zuo Hancheng, who had a meaningful smile on his face.’”‘Quick, come in and sit. ”
“Yes, yes, yes. Quickly sit down and treat it as your own home. Don’t be an outsider.”Mrs. Gu also spoke very vigilantly. At the same time, she asked the servants to prepare tea and other things.
“Mayor Gu, please accept my hospitality. There’s no need to be polite. I’m accompanying Anhao home to get some things and will leave soon.”Obviously, Zuo Hancheng had no intention of giving them face and going over to sit. He merely curled his lips slightly and glanced at Gu Anhao, who had remained silent after entering the room.”Where is your room? I’ll go with you.”
As soon as Zuo Hancheng finished speaking, Mrs. Gu’s face stiffened slightly. Gu Tianming frowned secretly and turned to look at Gu Anhao.
Gu Anhao turned her eyes away. Her calm eyes were filled with indifference. She saw the trace of anxiety hidden under the calm surface in Gu Tianming’s eyes. She calmly said to Zuo Hancheng, who was beside her,””ln the attic at the end of the third floor.’
Atter saymg tnat, Annao stopped 100kmg at Gu ‘I’lanmmg and went upstairs.
“Gu Anhao, what do you mean?”Gu Shishi couldn’t hold it in any longer. She stood up abruptly and glared at Gu Anhao’s back as she scolded,””What kind of place do you think our Gu family is? Do you think we can let you come and go as you please? What do you have in our house? Why would you need to come back and take it? Let me tell you, everything you have was given to you by the Gu family, including the clothes you used to wear. Which one of them doesn’t belong to the Gu family?
You actually came back to collect your luggage?”
Anhao stopped in her tracks and glanced back at Gu Shishi.””You mean those old clothes that you don’t like to wear? I’m sorry, I threw those rags under the cabinet and never intended to wear them.”
“Then what else do you have in the Gu family?” Gu Shishi asked coldly. What do you want? We don’t have anything of yours in the Gu family!”
“Is that so?” “Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten how you snuck into my room and took a photo of my mother’s death and posted it online?” Anhao snorted. I don’t have anything from the Gu family in my room. I only have a few belongings and photos that my mother left for me. I’m coming back to take them now. What’s wrong with you?”
As she spoke, Anhao went straight upstairs, ignoring Gu Shishi’s angry expression.
Gu Tianming also turned to look at Anhao at the same time. Anhao felt Gu Tianming’s gaze, but she didn’t turn back and quickly went upstairs.
Gu Tianming hesitated for a moment, then turned around and said to Zuo
Hancheng, who hadn’t done much at the beginning,””Mister Zuo, about
Anhao…”
“Mayor Gu, sorry to bother you.” Zuo Hancheng ignored his words and said politely in a cold voice. Then, he walked up the stairs with steady steps.
Seeing that Zuo Hancheng had accompanied Gu Anhao upstairs, Gu Shishi turned to look at Mrs. Gu anxiously and whispered,””Mom, what should we
do… ”
Hearing Gu Shishi’s voice, Gu Tianming could not help but turn to look at her.””What do you mean? She hasn’t been back for more than half a year. Did you put something in Gu Anhao’s room again?”
Gu Shishi’s eyes froze. After a long while, she bit her lip and whispered,””l didn’t put anything… It’s just those pranks from when I was young…” If it was just a simple prank, Gu Shishi would not have such a panicked attitude.
Gu Tianming pondered for a moment before quickly turning around and walking up.
Gu Shishi looked at Gu Tianming’s back and anxiously turned to Mrs.
Gu.’”‘Mom…”
“Zuo Hancheng is planning to interfere in Anhao’s matter. Don’t look at how calm he is as if he won’t do anything to us. People like him who hide their abilities are the most dangerous! Your father can’t even protect himself now.
Don’t talk so much and try not to cause trouble.”Mrs. Gu frowned and reminded
mm sortiY.
Gu Shishi stomped her feet in anger.””Why would Gu Anhao marry a man like Zuo Hancheng? He actually stood up for her! Why? Why?!”
Upstairs, it was even more exciting.
Anhao had already reached the attic at the end of the third floor. It was just a nice adjective to describe it as attic. In fact, it was a small room less than ten meters square, smaller than the servant’s room.
Next to this attic was the place where the lightning rod was installed on the roof. It was very dangerous, and it was only a temporary small house on the roof. Occasionally, it would leak rain.
No one lived here for a long time, and no one came in to clean. When she opened the door, she was greeted by a musty smell.
Anhao was already used to the environment in this house. After opening the door, she only paused at the door for a few seconds before walking in.
There was only a 30-square-centimeter window in the corner of the room. It was not airtight. Not only did the room smell moldy, but it was also very stuffy. The air circulation was very bad.
Anhao walked into the room in the dark. Zuo Hancheng saw the environment inside and saw that Anhao could move freely in the dark room. He turned to look at the door and turned on the light switch on the wall.
The room suddenly lit up with a dim yellow light, but Anhao suddenly paused and turned her eyes to the row of transparent wine bottles on the table beside her bed.
Instantly, she felt a chill run straight into her bones, so cold that her entire body froze..
