"Don’t feel strange," Ou Shihua said with a smile. "Even though you’re not my biological child, you’ve been by my side for so many years. I raised you with my own hands, and you are no different from a biological child."
Ou Yanan’s gaze passed over him and looked inside the house. Seated on the ground motionless was Ou Chunhua, and there were the Gu Family mbers. Gu Dad and Gu Mom cast nervous glances at him, and Gu Nuan’s silent gaze seed to see everything clearly.
Following his gaze, Ou Shihua looked over, squinting his eyes, and said, "Your mother, I don’t want to talk about her. She was wrong, gravely wrong. Don’t worry, she is not qualified to be your mother."
"Mr. Ou, I’m not—"
"I said it, yes, you are my child." At this point, Ou Shihua couldn’t help but raise his voice slightly, "You’re still in school, pursuing graduate studies. You need to devote more energy to benefiting humanity, which is also your dream. I’ve always supported you with financial, material, and emotional fatherly love. You shouldn’t waste your talents and energy on unnecessary daily needs."
Hearing these words from the Ou Family, Gu Dad and Gu Mom felt a bit angry. It was true, the Gu Family didn’t have money, but didn’t they raise a daughter who could earn quite well?
Whether rich or poor, what mattered was the love parents gave their children. In this regard, Gu Dad and Gu Mom believed the Ou Family had not done well. As they recalled their interactions with this Ou Family young master, who was actually their son, they had always found him oddly cold and lonely. It turned out to be because of this.
As for Ou Chunhua, she was only kind to her son for money and to beco Mrs. Ou. And Ou Shihua? He treated his son well because he needed an heir.
Gu Mom pursed her lips and said, "Our family may not have money, but our doors are always open to children who need a ho. They’ll always find a sense of belonging with us."
Ou Shihua snorted heavily on the spot, "When you have no money, no house to live in, what family feeling could there be?"
Gu Dad took a step forward but was pulled back by Gu Mom.
"He’s like a dog barking when cornered; don’t bother with him," Gu Mom also stopped Dabai, who wanted to go out and scold them on behalf of his father-in-law.
Ou Shihua, with a dark face, didn’t want to engage with these impoverished rural people from the county. If not for the fact that these two had so connection with the Ou Family because of the children... But it didn’t matter, he raised this foster son to be smart, surely not foolish enough to say—
After walking a few steps and turning back, Ou Shihua suddenly realized his foster son was standing there motionless.
"Yanan—"
Ou Yanan wasn’t looking anywhere, seemingly staring at his own reflection.
His conflicted feelings were evident to the Gu Family. Gu Nuan, who understood him well, knew that her brother wasn’t struggling over a matter of money.
Gu Dad and Gu Mom had already softened their hearts and wouldn’t say a word to pressure this child into making a decision.
But Ou Shihua couldn’t hold back any longer and returned to personally pull the foster son’s hand to get him into his car.
Before finding his own biological son, losing this foster son would leave him without an heir. He couldn’t let that happen, no matter what.
Ou Chunhua later got up and left without saying another word.
Finally, everything seed to return to calm.
Gu Nuan raised her head, as if she could feel a breeze gradually moving away, carrying the scent of her brother, Gu Sheng.
After returning ho angrily, Ou Shihua imdiately called in a lawyer to discuss divorcing his wife.
