Gu Junhang was already sowhat upset today due to Xia Yumo’s situation and had no patience to say too much to Xue Lan. He only said:
"Mom, I heard that you’re bothering Xia Yumo again?"
Upon ntioning Xia Yumo, Xue Lan involuntarily thought of the humiliation she received at the marketplace that day. Her face suddenly darkened, and she coldly replied,
"Did that woman tell you? Heh! A cheap woman is always a cheap woman. She claid to have broken up with you, but imdiately ca to you to complain. Such a woman..."
"Shut up!"
Gu Junhang’s face turned cold, and there seed to be a layer of ice at the bottom of his eyes, filled with anger, interrupting Xue Lan’s deeply offensive words.
Even though the person in front of her was her own son, Xue Lan was still frightened by the dangerous atmosphere in Gu Junhang’s eyes.
"You... how dare you talk to like that, I’m your mother!"
Xue Lan was so angry that her whole body trembled, and her eyes stared at Gu Junhang with fire.
"If you weren’t my mother, do you think I’d bother wasting my ti arguing with you?"
Gu Junhang, with so aggravation, tugged at his shirt collar and looked at Xue Lan. He deepened the warning in his eyes and said,
"Mom, I’ve always been clear with you that the woman I want to marry can only be the one I truly love. It’s useless for you to force any woman onto . By humiliating Xia Yumo, you’re only making hate you more."
"You..."
"The matters between Xia Yumo and , it’s best if you don’t interfere. Whether we break up or continue, it’s all my personal business, and no one can intervene, including you."
Gu Junhang narrowed his eyes, and the coldness within, stifling Xue Lan, left her speechless.
"Let be clear with you again, if one day I marry another woman, the only possibility is that I don’t love Xia Yumo anymore. Other than that, nothing you do will change anything. Also..."
"If you continue to try making trouble around both and Xia Yumo, I can leave the Gu Family anyti. Besides, my dad would actually prefer to hand over the Gu Family business to my half-brother."
Upon hearing this, Xue Lan’s face turned pale. Just as she was about to speak, Gu Junhang didn’t give her a chance and continued sternly:
"Mom, the Gu Family doesn’t an much to . The person who can’t live without the Gu Family is you, not . If you don’t want to force to abandon the Gu Family, you can go ahead and continue bothering Xia Yumo."
Xue Lan was genuinely frightened by Gu Junhang’s warning. She knew that what her son said was true.
Just the salary he earned as a legal consultant at Lu’s was enough for him to live comfortably, let alone the fact that she always felt her son might have more money in his hands than what the Gu Family could offer him.
Leaving the Gu Family wouldn’t affect him, but if the Gu Family was handed over to that little scoundrel’s son, she wouldn’t be able to survive in the Gu Family anymore.
By then, she would have lost both her son and the Gu Family. What kind of distinguished Madam Gu would she be then?
Now, the reason she could still stand tall in the circle of wealthy wives was not only because of her legitimate status but also because her son controlled half of the Gu Family’s assets.
Even if Gu Huanan loved his illegitimate child, he couldn’t recklessly hand over the Gu Family to him.
But if his son willingly gave up on the Gu Family...
Xue Lan’s heart trembled; she didn’t dare to think about what she would do if her son abandoned the Gu Family.
