Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife Chapter 555: The Beginning of the Counterattack (6)

If Gu Sheng knew that his parents had given him away, even if Mr. and Mrs. Gu hadn’t taken any money for it, it still wasn’t the right thing to do to send their child away. Couldn’t they have begged soone else? Moreover, they had never sought Gu Sheng’s opinion. At that ti, Gu Sheng was old enough to understand the situation. It would have been logical for Gu Sheng to have even a seed of displeasure in his heart because of his parents’ unilateral decision making without informing him.

Over the years, if Gu Sheng really were alive, could Gu Sheng say that those people hadn’t truly saved his life? He couldn’t.

Gu Nuan knew her brother well; he was a child who inherited their father’s nature and was very sincere in character. His judgnts would never be made purely based on emotion, but rather on the facts at hand, assessing right and wrong according to reason.

Perhaps the people who threatened or tempted the Gu Family to sell their child were wrong, but in the end, they had saved a life, and Gu Sheng might consider it that way.

What were her parents to do then?

Mr. Gu had just arrived at the market and, sure enough, saw a scene just as the neighbors had described, with a crowd surrounding Mrs. Gu and Grandmother Gu, a veritable sea of people.

Standing in the middle of the crowd, Grandmother Gu beca increasingly proud as more people gathered, cursing with even more vigor, her voice reaching hysterical levels, nearly shouting herself breathless.

Auntie Gu the second had no choice but to pat Grandmother Gu’s back to help her breathe.

The scene, no matter how one looked at it, was extrely disadvantageous to Mrs. Gu. After all, the elderly lady was the elder, and no matter the lack of reason, just by virtue of age, they’d say Mrs. Gu didn’t respect her elder.

At that mont, with Mr. Gu’s arrival, there was definitely no ti to understand the situation fully. Anyway, the reasons for a fight between his mother and his wife were always the sa, more or less. He himself had morized them for years. So, with practiced ease, Mr. Gu pushed through the crowd and calmly squeezed in between his wife and his mother.

Suddenly seeing Mr. Gu appear, both Mrs. Gu and Grandmother Gu were montarily stunned.

Mr. Gu said to Grandmother Gu, "Mom, enough, stop talking so much. Aren’t you embarrassed in front of all these people?"

Grandmother Gu, seeing her son first scold her upon his arrival, got even angrier and said, "What, you’re going to bla your wife’s mistakes on ? Aren’t you going to talk about what she did just now? Do you know she cursed and your dad? She called us heartless, tell , isn’t she the heartless one?"

With her husband there as a diator, Mrs. Gu defended herself, "I never said those words. How could I possibly curse my own in-laws? It was Auntie Gu the second who said that Dad and Mom were worried about Nuannuan’s husband coming back with no money and being a burden to them. Isn’t that why I swore that my daughter and son-in-law would absolutely not be a burden to Granny and Granddad?"

Hearing this, Mr. Gu realized it was just as he had suspected. His parents really were quite concerned about money, and the older they got, the more they cared, always fearing that their coffins would be emptied by their children before they died.

To this, Mr. Gu found it unbelievable. Who would covet the little savings of the elderly? Such a curse-worthy act—they wouldn’t do it for any amount of money.

But what the elderly couple thought, they couldn’t control.

"Mom, you don’t know, but Nuannuan, she’s earning quite a bit of money now," Mr. Gu calmly changed the subject, diverting the old lady’s attention away from his wife.

When it ca to making money, the old lady perked up her ears to listen.

Mr. Gu continued, "If you don’t believe , you can ask Qiu Sangao, didn’t she make a large sum of money a few days ago? That was all earned for her by Nuannuan, who even took a consulting fee."

Speaking of Qiu Sangao, she was the wealthiest among the Gu Family’s circle of friends and relatives; any news about her was well known to everyone.
