But she saw a glimr in Gu Junhao’s eyes.
In her heart, she had an inkling and continued:
"You and him are blood brothers, and people love to compare you with Gu Junhang. Even your parents like to compare you with him, right?"
Not that Qiaoxu could read minds, but it was normal for parents to compare their children.
Brothers and sisters with the sa parents are also compared by their parents, let alone soone with a unique identity like Gu Junhao.
Gu Huanan and Jian Yi would surely compare their sons.
But the couple wasn’t mindless; even if they spoiled their own son, they wouldn’t blindly think that he was better than Gu Junhang.
It was probably because Gu Junhao often heard such comnts that he said he wanted to destroy the world and make all humans submit—middle school syndro words that suited his age.
As expected, when she said this, Gu Junhao’s face darkened, clearly not happy.
But at the sa ti, he seed to hope that Qiaoxu would say more.
For example, about his brother.
He looked at Qiaoxu, waiting for her to continue.
"Do your parents think that your brother is better than you, that you need your father to get the Gu family, but Gu Junhang doesn’t?"
Otherwise, Gu Huanan wouldn’t have been so anxious to help Gu Junhao go against Gu Junhang, and eventually even hurriedly got himself into prison.
It had to be said that Gu Huanan did truly love and care for his son Gu Junhao.
But perhaps he didn’t know that what Gu Junhao wanted wasn’t just love and care, but the recognition of his father, right?
After all, being an illegitimate child was a sensitive and inferior status, and even his own parents thought he was inferior to his half-brother; no wonder Gu Junhao developed such a paranoid and perverted character.
Gu Junhao’s eyes flickered, and although he didn’t want to answer Qiaoxu, he couldn’t help but give an "hmm."
Seeing that he was willing to respond to her on the topic of Gu Junhang, Qiaoxu breathed a sigh of relief.
She guessed right; this middle-schooleraged Gu Junhao, deep inside, probably cared a lot about his brother Gu Junhang.
Acceptance from others might not be important, but the acceptance from his parents and his brother was sothing he probably cared about deeply.
"What do you think makes your brother so universally acknowledged?"
Qiaoxu asked him, "Is it because he’s born from the main wife, so he’s recognized?"
Gu Junhao thought of how dumb and malicious Xue Lan was and instantly dismissed the idea in his mind.
"To be honest, your mother is more capable and smarter than Xue Lan. But even if your mother was the main wife of the Gu family and you swapped identities with Gu Junhang, would your parents and the people around recognize your ability?"
Qiaoxu sneered, "Gu Junhao, recognition is not forced upon others; it’s sothing that cos from their hearts, to respect you, admire you, and submit to you. That’s true ’submission,’ not your middle school syndro words."
From beginning to end, Qiaoxu never truly believed his words about "destroying the world," so she used it to provoke him.
If she had known that Gu Junhao genuinely harbored this idea deep down, she probably wouldn’t have dared to ntion it.
Gu Junhao leaned back on the sofa, silent, as if he was contemplating Qiaoxu’s words or thinking about sothing else.
