The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

Now that Gu Yihuai is in trouble, Ms. Chen is even more pleased.

Just as Ms. Chen was lost in her own arrogant fantasy, Gu Moxuan came downstairs.

Seeing Gu Moxuan walk down, Ms. Chen immediately came to her senses, slowly got up from the sofa, and had an embarrassed smile on her face.

"Mo Xuan, how is Qing Ran?"

Her eyes were full of caution, as if she might accidentally anger Gu Moxuan.

When Ms. Chen first returned to Beicheng, she was able to use her status as a mother to blackmail Gu Moxuan.

However, after discovering that this method was completely ineffective, Ms. Chen almost never dared to use it again.

She worried that Gu Moxuan would kick her out of Beicheng and send her abroad.

At her age, she actually prefers to stay in her hometown.

Seeing Ms. Chen's cautious demeanor, Gu Moxuan walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down without saying a word.

He waited for Ms. Chen to explain everything clearly.

Ms. Chen saw that Gu Moxuan had a cold and stern expression and was sitting quietly on the sofa in silence.

She felt even more panicked.

Even though the person sitting in front of her was the son she had raised herself.

But seeing his cold, stern features and his face, which revealed no emotion, still made her unable to remain calm.

She took a deep breath and immediately began to speak.

“Mo Xuan, I did not disturb anyone from the Gu family, and I did not invite Old Madam Gu here.”

"It was the old lady who said she wanted to see Qingran, and that Qingran was currently living in Sixiang Garden."

She paused for a moment, then immediately shifted all the blame onto Old Mrs. Gu.

"I really don't know anything. Before I came here, I didn't even know that Gu Yihuai had an accident."

"Qingran was the one who hit me; I didn't lay a hand on her. I even spoke up for Qingran. But the old lady..."

Gu Moxuan narrowed his long, narrow eyes slightly, his expression dark and gloomy.

"She hit Qingran?"

Gu Moxuan didn't even notice that just now.

Lin Qingran had an injury on her forehead and some bruises on her face, so the slap from Old Madam Gu was not very noticeable.

Gu Moxuan took a deep breath, his face turning cold and grim.

When Ms. Chen saw that Gu Moxuan was unaware of this, she assumed that Lin Qingran would tell Gu Moxuan everything.

She realized she had said the wrong thing and immediately covered her mouth.

However, Gu Moxuan had already gotten up and started walking outside.

He was only wearing a thin shirt, and the weather in Beicheng was already bitterly cold when he went outside. Upon seeing this, Ms. Chen immediately took a coat from the hanger and chased after him.

"Mo Xuan, Mo Xuan, wait for Mom."

Gu Moxuan strode into the garage, his expression extremely grave, and drove straight to the Gu family home.

Ms. Chen ran out, still clutching Gu Moxuan's coat. She hadn't even had time to put on her own coat. As Gu Moxuan drove by, a gust of wind swept through the air. Ms. Chen yawned a few times, hurriedly put on her own coat, got into the car, and told the driver to chase after them.

Lin Qingran was lying in bed when she heard the sound of cars leaving downstairs. She frowned slightly, slowly got out of bed, and walked to the balcony, where she happened to see Gu Moxuan's car and Grandma Gu's car leaving.

When Gu Moxuan came downstairs, he was perfectly fine, but now he suddenly left. Lin Qingran was worried that something might have happened, so she immediately took out her phone and called Gu Moxuan.

However, Gu Moxuan's phone rang in the bedroom. She looked up and saw Gu Moxuan's phone on the bedside table next to her.

Lin Qingran looked like she had a headache. She threw off the covers, got up, and went downstairs.

Aunt Wang happened to be carrying Lin Jinjin up the stairs. After meeting Lin Qingran at the top of the stairs, she immediately whispered something to her.

"The lady told the master about the old lady's trouble-making. When the master heard that you were beaten, he looked very unhappy and left in a huff."

Lin Qingran was stunned upon hearing the sound.

Old Mrs. Gu is in poor health, and Gu Moxuan is currently in a fit of anger. I'm afraid that if he goes to the Gu family, he will stir up another bloody storm.

Lin Qingran then spoke up.

"Get me the car ready, I need to go to the Gu family's house."

Aunt Wang nodded upon hearing this.

Lin Qingran took the child from Aunt Wang and then carried Lin Jinjin back to the bedroom.

She didn't have time to change out of her loungewear, so she just threw on a coat and started to go downstairs.

She had just stepped downstairs when the security guard at the door jogged in.

"Miss Lin, Miss Zhao has arrived. And your sister... has also arrived."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran's expression changed drastically.

It seems that "Zhao Xiang" has arranged for people to keep watch outside Sixiang Garden.

Not long after Old Mrs. Gu left, "Zhao Xiang" arrived with Lin Xiaoruo.

Lin Qingran took a deep breath and glanced at the floor-to-ceiling window. Through the window, she could indeed see Zhao Xiang standing at the door in the distance, wearing a white trench coat. Lin Xiaoruo, standing next to her, was dressed much more flamboyantly.

"Let them in."

As Lin Qingran spoke, she glanced at Lin Jinjin and said softly.

"Jinjin, would you like to play with Grandma Wang in the children's room upstairs later?"

Lin Jinjin blinked, her expression somewhat puzzled.

"Aren't we going to find Daddy?"

Lin Qingran shook her head. "No, we're not going. We have guests at home, and Mommy is here to greet them. You're still a little kid, so you can only play upstairs with Grandma. Don't come down and bother Mommy, okay?"

Lin Jinjin nodded, looking obedient.

Seeing Lin Jinjin nod, Lin Qingran quickly instructed Aunt Wang to take Lin Jinjin to the children's room upstairs.

Lin Jinjin had met Zhao Xiang before when she lived in the small apartment.

If Lin Qingran were to meet the imposter "Zhao Xiang" at this moment, she worried that the imposter might say something that would make "Zhao Xiang" suspicious.

Just as Aunt Wang carried Lin Jinjin upstairs, Lin Xiaoruo and "Zhao Xiang" walked in from outside.

Lin Qingran had just taken off her coat and hadn't even had a chance to hang it up when Lin Xiaoruo walked in first.

"Sister, are you getting ready to go out?"

When Lin Qingran saw "Lin Xiaoruo" walk in, she raised her eyebrows slightly, her expression not changing much. She straightened her coat and nodded slightly.

"Ah."

She answered softly, her face expressionless.

Lin Xiaoruo was also carrying some fruit and toys she had bought for Lin Jinjin.

After she came in, she put the things on the table. Lin Qingran glanced at the toys on the table indifferently and then looked away.

With a smile on her face, Lin Xiaoru walked to Lin Qingran's side, reached out to help Lin Qingran, and smiled ingratiatingly.

"Well, we're lucky we arrived at the right time. If we had been a step later, my sister would probably have already left."

Lin Qingran felt a sense of disgust seeing Lin Xiaoruo's insincere behavior.

It's impossible for her and Lin Xiaoruo to be harmonious sisters in this lifetime. The best outcome would be if they could just stay out of each other's way.

So when Lin Xiaoruo's hand touched her, Lin Qingran immediately withdrew her arm, rejecting Lin Xiaoruo's advances.
