Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack! Chapter 214 - 213: Favoritism (Fourth Update)
Gu Xiaoqing saw her brother was about to suffer a loss and hurriedly rushed over to pull Gu Xiaojie away, standing between Gu Xiaojie and Gu Xiaomin.
Protecting her brother.
Gu Xiaomin didn’t manage to scratch Gu Xiaojie and cried out, rushing to Xiao Xue, "Mom, look, Gu Xiaojie took my ga console."
Xiao Xue was a bit embarrassed. This ga console really belonged to their family, and saying such things in front of the owner, what could she say about it?
She glanced at Mrs. Gu, who was the one who caused this trouble.
It was Mrs. Gu who insisted on taking this out and said it was for Gu Xiaomin.
And look at the ss now.
Mrs. Gu didn’t expect this to happen, so she had to say, "Xiao Jie, this ga console was given to Gu Xiaomin by grandma. How about this, ask your mom to buy you another one when you get ho. Just let Gu Xiaomin have this one, after all, she’s your sister."
Mrs. Gu also felt that Gu Xiaojie was making a big deal out of a small matter. It was just a small, broken box, and it didn’t seem very expensive.
She also thought Li Xuei didn’t teach the children well, making such a fuss over a little thing.
But all along, Mrs. Gu knew that the only person she could rely on was Gu Ruhai. Gu Ruhai treasured his wife and children imnsely, and if she said anything about Li Xuei, she would totally offend Gu Ruhai.
Now Mrs. Gu dared not offend her future mainstay.
Li Xuei was a bit annoyed. It’s not a matter of whether the thing is expensive; it’s Gu Xiaojie’s, and what right does Mrs. Gu have to give it away?
Just because they’re not ho doesn’t an the household items can be at Mrs. Gu’s disposal.
She said coldly, "Mom, this thing was in Gu Xiaojie’s backpack. I don’t know whose itchy hands had to take it out. This is not sothing you can buy with money; a friend of Gu Xiaoqing’s from abroad brought it back, and you can’t buy it here."
This was to tell Mrs. Gu that the item couldn’t be given away.
Mrs. Gu was embarrassed.
"This is... from abroad... I... I didn’t know."
Mrs. Gu regretted it. As soon as she saw the third son, she wanted to give good things to her third son, without thinking so much, and now it has caused trouble.
Mr. Gu saw this and said, "Alright, Gu Xiaomin, this thing belongs to your brother. Your grandma didn’t know and gave it to you, which doesn’t count. Stop crying, you’re so grown-up and still crying, and even tried to hit soone earlier. Is this how your parents taught you?"
This was the first ti Mr. Gu spoke so harshly about Gu Ruhe’s children, making Gu Ruhe really shook inside.
He never thought there would co a day when he would face being rebuked by Mr. Gu like this. It didn’t feel good at all.
So this is how big brother felt back then.
Xiao Xue’s face imdiately turned black.
This was the first ti experiencing this kind of treatnt. In the past, even if Mr. Gu didn’t favor Gu Xiaomin, he wouldn’t criticize the two kids in front of Xiao Xue like this, at least he gave her so face as a daughter-in-law.
She couldn’t help but mutter, "You’re also such a big kid. Why are you so fond of such a little broken thing without even seeing whose it is? Can you compete with Gu Xiaojie? You’re just the mud below, while he’s the cherished darling."
This was accusing Mr. Gu of being biased.
Li Xuei and Gu Ruhai certainly wouldn’t say anything.
Gu Ruhe glared at Xiao Xue, knowing full well they ca to ask for big brother’s help. Xiao Xue was being ungrateful and adding to the family’s troubles.
He smiled and said to Gu Ruhai, "Big brother, sit down. It’s just the kids having a spat, let’s not mind them. Let’s sit down and have a chat."
He pulled Gu Ruhai over to sit down.
Li Xuei took Gu Xiaojie away, and Gu Xiaojie had already run off with the ga console to find Zhang Zijie to play.
Gu Xiaoqing and Gu Xiaoying brought over tea, along with a plate of grapes and pears, fresh fruits of the season. The grapes were ho-grown; Gu Xiaoqing tasted them and found them very sweet.
Over there, Gu Ruhe was already chatting with big brother back and forth.
Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu sat there occasionally joining in on the conversation.
The family seed to be in a harmonious atmosphere.
Gu Xiaoqing couldn’t shake the feeling that sothing was going on.
However, the current Gu Ruhai wasn’t the sa as before. The level of shrewdness of the current Gu Ruhai was no less than anyone else. Having been in business for many years, if he wasn’t smart, he’d just be a fool.
Gu Ruhai also knew that the third brother was definitely looking for him for sothing.
On the other side, Gu Xiaoqing told Li Xuei that she planned to find Gu Juying. She had already thought of a way over these past days, planning to take Gu Juying to Ten-mile Castle. With a car at ho, the distance wasn’t an issue, claiming it was to thank the villagers who saved them back then.
Gu Xiaoqing rembered that the place where they were locked up by human traffickers was near the village of Ten-mile Castle.
This reason was already handy.
Li Xuei didn’t ask. Gu Xiaoqing was a thoughtful child, and Li Xuei never really worried about her.
Gu Xiaoqing gave Gu Xiaoying a look, indicating that she needed a driver.
Gu Xiaoqing hadn’t reached the legal age yet and didn’t have a driver’s license.
Gu Xiaoying wisely followed her out.
The two of them drove to Gu Juying’s ho.
Just when they arrived at the entrance, they ran into Feng Shichao. The mont this person saw Gu Xiaoqing, his eyes floated over with a lecherous gaze, almost as if he wanted to capture Gu Xiaoqing imdiately.
Feng Shichao had done his research these days; he found out that Gu Xiaoqing’s family background was quite strong. It was said that her father, Gu Ruhai, was a well-known figure in the neighboring villages, and when the village needed a road built, Gu Ruhai instantly took out thirty thousand.
This was thirty thousand yuan, not three thousand or three hundred.
He didn’t even blink an eye in taking it out.
If he could win over Gu Xiaoqing, then spending Gu Ruhai’s money would be like having no limits.
Thinking about the yellow-faced woman at ho, Feng Shichao was a million tis eager to dump her.
And that pesky kid.
"Gu Xiaoqing, are you here to find Gu Juying?"
He imdiately approached to start a conversation, his voice so gentle it could lt into water.
Goosebumps rose on Gu Xiaoqing’s skin, unclear if this person forgot his dication before going out.
This was really terrifying.
Gu Xiaoying also felt the chills, nervously shielding Gu Xiaoqing behind her. This man clearly had a rascal’s appearance, pretending to be charming and suave, but Gu Xiaoying couldn’t let her sister be deceived by such a person.
Gu Xiaoqing and Gu Xiaoying directly bypassed the person in front of them and went inside to find Gu Juying.
Feng Shichao wasn’t in a hurry either, leisurely getting on his bike and leaving.
He had long thought of a trick, knowing a few shady characters who road the streets. When the ti ca, plan a "hero saving the beauty" act, and wouldn’t that be an easy conquest waiting to happen?
