The Regent's Little Wife

At the side, half of Gu Yao's face was swollen as if it was filled with cotton wool, and she looked miserable.

However, she was the most angry person in the room. Gu Yao was already furious, but she still pretended to be pitiful and sympathetic, and roared in her heart: Gu Nian, I will never give up on you! Her swollen eyes revealed a vicious light.

After leaving Gu's house, I went to my grandma's house. After my grandma and grandpa learned the whole story, they began to blame their daughter Lan Meifeng, saying that she was blind.

But after all, their daughter was already married, so the old couple couldn't say anything more.

Grandma said to me gently, "Niannian, grandma and grandpa both have pensions, which add up to tens of thousands. As long as we have food to eat, we will never let you go hungry." Hearing this, Gu Nian finally felt a little comforted.

As for the Gu family villa, because of Gu Nian's disturbance, the whole family has not had meals at home in recent days. The four sons have all used the excuse of being busy at work and have not returned home for more than half a month.

That day, Gu Jingshen invited his assistant to dinner. The two of them enjoyed the food and had a pleasant conversation.

The dining place they chose was, naturally, a luxurious seven-star hotel.

However, Gu Jingshen was worried that reporters would capture him on a date alone with a woman and make headlines, so he deliberately chose a secluded corner.

The assistant had no objection to this. After all, with her qualifications and background, she had never dared to hope for such an occasion. As a junior lawyer who had just graduated from graduate school and entered the legal world, it was a great honor for her to work in Gu Jingshen's law firm. Gu Jingshen also had an indescribable feeling for this assistant.

The two ate and chatted, the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant. The assistant mentioned some trivial matters of the Gu family and asked curiously: "Brother Shen, your sister hasn't come home yet?"

When Gu Jingshen heard the assistant mention Gu Nian, his face was immediately filled with dissatisfaction: "Her? You still have the nerve to come back? Our Gu family has found her and provided her with food and drink since she was 16 years old. What else does she want? From the way she looks, it's clear that she is playing hard to get, as if the whole family owes her something."

Upon hearing this, the assistant smiled and consoled him, "Yeah, Brother Shen, there's no such thing as overnight hatred between family members. Why did you leave like that? Little girls just like to throw tantrums. I guess she'll be back after a few days of crazy fun outside."

"If our Gu family hadn't taken her in, what would she be? I'm afraid she would still be in an orphanage now." Gu Jingshen continued to curse.

As the two were chatting, the assistant suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure and quickly reminded Gu Jingshen: "Brother Shen, that person looks a bit like your sister Gu Nian."

Gu Jingshen once showed Gu Nian's photo to his assistant. She had sharp eyes and recognized him at the first sight.

Gu Jingshen turned his head and exclaimed: "Ah! It's her!"

In his memory, Gu Nian was thin, pale, and dull-looking. He spoke in a timid manner, had thick bangs, and wore a pair of glasses, looking very rustic.

But now, looking at Gu Nian again, she has completely changed. She no longer wears glasses, and her bangs have disappeared, replaced by a different hairstyle that falls on her shoulders. She is wearing a black and white dress, and her every move is full of temperament. If you don't carefully compare the previous photos, it's hard to believe that this is the same person.

This made Gu Jingshen full of doubts: How could Gu Nian be able to come to such a place? The consumption here was definitely not something he could afford.

Moreover, there was a boy sitting in front of Gu Nian. Gu Jingshen always felt that he looked familiar, but he could not remember where he had seen him.

He curled his lips and thought to himself, "So that's how it is. She is actually being kept by a pretty boy. How shameless. For someone like this who has no conscience, I want to ask her how she can feel at ease with herself?"

The young assistant wanted to dissuade Gu Jingshen, but he had already left his seat.

Gu Jingshen walked straight to Gu Nian's table and asked condescendingly, "Gu Nian, you are still eating here leisurely and smiling so happily. Everyone in the family is in turmoil because of you. Don't you feel the slightest bit of guilt?"

Facing Gu Jingshen's questioning, Gu Nian frowned and thought to himself: How unlucky I am to run into him even when having a meal.

"Why should I feel guilty?" Gu Nian replied coldly. "It has nothing to do with me if you are unhappy."

After saying that, Gu Nian's tone was full of impatience. Gu Jingshen was so angry that he said, "Gu Nian, I am your brother, how dare you talk to me like this?"

"Gu Jingshen... I, Gu Nian, have already drawn a clear line with your Gu family. I don't have any brothers."

Although Gu Jingshen, as a lawyer, was choked and speechless at the moment, he still tried to fight back: "Even if the relationship is severed, he is still your brother. You have the same blood flowing in your bodies!"

Indeed, it was because Gu Nian had the blood of the Gu family flowing in his body that the heroine in the previous life humbly licked the Gu family for more than two years.

Because of this tiny blood relationship, the original owner suffered two years of abuse and eventually ended up like garbage.

Is this all that the Gu family bloodline gave to the original owner? Gu Nian said coldly: "Is the blood of your Gu family so noble? I also hate this disgusting and dirty bloodline in my body. Barrister...ah, are you trying to blackmail me morally?"

"Gu Nian! You're going too far!" Gu Jingshen was so angry that his face turned blue. The Gu family's prominent status has always been her greatest pride, but Gu Nian was so rude.

"Gu Nian, you'd better take back what you said immediately. The Gu family is of noble status and a prestigious family. You'd better apologize quickly." Gu Jingshen said sternly.

Shen Ruci, who was standing by, couldn't stand it any longer. He said coldly, "Apologize? Did you apologize when Nian Nian was bullied in your house?"

Gu Jingshen retorted: "Don't talk nonsense, who bullied her?"

Shen Ruci sneered: "Haha, Nian Nian lived in your Gu family, skinny and depressed and painful. In the past three months, he has been living in his grandmother's house, and his physical condition has improved. Do you remember? Before, he weighed less than 80 kilograms, and his thin appearance was really pitiful."

"Also, do you want to know Nian Nian's test scores? You always praise your adopted daughter for being so outstanding, but I want to tell you that Nian Nian scored a perfect 750 in this first exam."

"And your non-blood-related sister only scored 650 points. Although 650 can be considered a high score, it is a far cry from our Nian Nian. Your Gu family even held a banquet for that adopted daughter, saying that she would definitely be admitted to the top university in Country S."

"You, the Gu family, are so blind that you don't know the value of gold and jade. You are a lawyer, but who would be willing to sue you if you look like this?"

Gu Jingshen was speechless for a moment: "This..."

He knew very well that there was indeed one person who scored full marks in this examination, but the media did not reveal his identity. Unexpectedly, this person was Gu Nian.

At this moment, there was a sound of a stool falling over in the restaurant. "Who! Help! Someone has fainted! Call an ambulance!"

A man called for help urgently. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man in his 40s or 50s lying on the floor beside a dining table, his body convulsing and his face flushed red.

The cry for help came from a middle-aged man, and next to him was a young man in his twenties. The young man tightly grasped the middle-aged man's hand and frantically looked around for help.
