Chapter 618: 618 The Debt He Owed Her, Putting His Life on the Line (1)_1
Gu Chengde’s affair must have been with his gravely ill mother.
However, people always bla the woman for the affair, easily forgiving the man.
It’s predictable that the Gu family detested Eleven’s birth mother, pinning all the bla on them both. anwhile, the Gu family enjoyed their peaceful lives as if nothing happened.
She made these assumptions based on other mbers of the Gu family’s attitudes towards him.
"Are you going to continue?"
Jin Xiangnan saw Eleven’s expression as if he was lost in thought.
"Go ahead, I’m listening."
Jin Xiangnan glanced at Eleven and sighed softly: "Eleven’s biological mother, surnad Jiang, was nad Jiang i. Her stage na was i Niang, and she was beautiful. She had the charm of classical beauties. She was indeed the most elegant traditional beauty I’ve ever seen."
However, Eleven didn’t share the sa impression.
When she saw his mother, she was already on the brink of death, her face pale, and she had lost twenty pounds according to Liancheng’s account. The classical beauty that Jin Xiangnan had seen had by then been tortured by illness, so much that she even contemplated ending her own life.
"I secretly visited her with Wen Qianxi. Liancheng probably doesn’t know about this. He is very proud and cares a lot about his dignity. His mother was not well, but he had no money for dical treatnt. Wen Qianxi ntioned that he had asked the Gu family for help, but they didn’t care about them at all."
The hand Eleven laid on her knee was faintly trembling.
She didn’t really want to hear such tragic past stories.
She would rather rember him as a domineering, stern man like an emperor, not knowing that he once humbly begged others for help.
On the other hand, she still wanted to listen because she wanted to truly understand him.
anwhile, she also hated the Gu family. She had no good feelings towards the Gu family at all - based on their treatnt of Liancheng and his mother.
"Wen Qianxi’s maternal grandfather’s family is a line of doctors, she has been learning about dicine in her family since she was young, and went to a dical school when she grew up. She personally treated his mother and secretly slipped her so money but not much, afraid that Liancheng might suspect."
"But that’s for later. Let
firstly tell you about Jiang i. Considering her stage na, you might have guessed it, right? If she wasn’t from the entertainnt industry, then it could only be from that place."
Yes, she guessed it. But she didn’t want to say it.
"She was a dancer at the entertainnt city, Gu Chengde t her there when he went to drown his sorrows in alcohol and they had Liancheng."
Eleven’s slightly long nails pricked her palm, her gaze flickering slightly.
Guessing was one thing, but hearing it personally was another.
She looked at Jin Xiangnan dumbfoundedly, the latter sighed lightly, "When Wen Qianxi told
about this at the ti, she cried."
"Although Jiang i was a dancer, she had her principles. She knew very well that her identity would not be accepted by the Gu family, and the Gu family looked down upon her and her son. So she brought up Liancheng by herself. He grew up in such a chaotic environnt until he was ten."
Eleven’s heart ached as the story unfolded.
Liar...
He even boasted about his cheerful and lively childhood. How could a child growing up in such a place be cheerful?
Eleven was torn, unsure whether she should continue to listen to the story.
At this point in the story, Jin Xiangnan didn’t want to keep her in the dark any longer and continued, "You know... children like him must have been very good-looking when they were young..."
