Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories - Chapter 1018

Chapter 1018: Abandoned by the Family

Gu Yuanli said, “I do not care about love and hate from the older generation. Do you have any news about Mom?”

“Why are you looking for her?”

Gu Yuanli said, “I have something on. You guys must be able to find her. After all, she is a part of the Yang Family. If anything happened to her, she might not help. You guys must have a way to contact her.”

Old Master lit up a cigarette.

Yang Lang’s face turned sullen.

This topic was taboo in the Yang Family.

Old Master said, “Yuanli, back then, we were the ones who abandoned her. Ever since then, she has had nothing much to do with us. I always thought that she had died until these few years when she suddenly returned. Every time, she contacts us on her own accord, and we have no way of contacting her.”

Gu Yuanli did not believe that.

Yang Lang said, “Your Grandpa isn’t lying. It’s true.”

Old Master said, “Our entire family owes her something. We overlooked it when we were young, and we did not know that she was trained by the people of Black Rose. When something happens to her, we did not care about her feelings either. We did not help her get through her dark times, and that is our fault. When she returned, I keep trying my best to make up to her. I satisfy whatever requests she has, even if they are illogical and unlawful. I agreed to all of them. She used to be such a darling.”

At the end of his speech, Old Master’s eyes were teary.

Gu Yuanli had heard the story about Fang Hongxiu setting Black Rose up so many times that his ears could grow calluses.

In the beginning, he deeply believed it.

He wanted to seek revenge on Fang Hongxiu.

He really hated Fang Hongxiu to death.

But afterward, he began to be enlightened.

All the stories were just made up. Fang Hongxiu was lying down, and she could not speak at all. Any sort of blame could be pushed at her.

Gu Yuanli said, “Did she never mention where she had been all these years? Not even a little?”

“No,” Yang Po said.

Old Master’s ears were watery. “How I wish she could return and enjoy family fun with us again. You and Gu Xie could return too. We can be reunited. All resentment could be put aside. Nothing is more important than a reunited family. I already have one leg in my coffin, and I still have to watch you guys… hate each other like enemies.”

Old Master grabbed Gu Yuanli’s hand. “My heart aches badly.”

Gu Yuanli was not moved at all.

Yang Lang said, “You should forgive her already.”

“No. I will never forgive her, including all of you.” Gu Yuanli stood up. “Since you guys don’t have any information about her, I won’t force it either. I will search in my own ways.”

He left the study room.

Old Master yelled. “Yuanli!”

He signaled for Yang Lang to rush over. Yang Lang said, “Yuanli, things are going well. Why are you throwing a tantrum?”

“I’m not throwing a tantrum,” Gu Yuanli said. “Since the beginning, I have already told you that the Gu Family is my family. In the beginning, you guys have also made the decision to throw us brothers to the Gu Family.”

Yang Lang said, “We had no choice.”

“Whatever it is. No matter if you guys had no choice or you guys are taking advantage of us. Since you have made the decision from the start, then you cannot turn around and regret. This way, I can still have a little bit of respect for you. The Gu Family had raised your children up to talented individuals, and now you guys want us back. What kind of easy advantage is this?” Gu Yuanli said calmly and walked out.

This time, he had drawn the line clearly between him and the Yang Family.

He was the one who did not make things clear earlier.

Yang Lang had not given up. He rushed up to him. “Yuanli, we are your real family members.”

“Wrong. Gu Chun is my father, and Fang Hongxiu is my mother. All my siblings are at the Gu Home.”
