Now that she mentioned it again, Zhang Xuan still felt a little guilty towards Ning Tang.
After being married for so many years, she would occasionally think of that man.
Gu Ruochu lowered her head. She was completely certain that the kidnapper was Gu Bo. Why did Gu Bo kidnap her She was his daughter after all.
"I understand. "
Since she had already said this, Gu Ruochu could not help but bring up the matter of Gu Zexi's mother. When she remembered that Gu Zexi had said that she had only seen her parents'graves, she felt very sorry for him.
What had happened back then?
Zhang Xuan's tears began to well up in her eyes as she stared into Gu Ruochu's serious eyes. She kept muttering, "it's all my fault, it's all my fault, I caused my sister's death... "
They had grown up together. Back then, they had been famous for being a pair of beautiful daughters, the favored daughter of the heavens.
However, all of this had been ruined one day.
Gu Ruochu reached out and covered the back of her hand. She quickly grabbed it tightly.
Zhang Xuan calmed herself down and said, "my sister's name is Suqin. She can be said to be a peerless beauty. She's the only favored daughter of the heavens in the famous Gu family of an city. Even many of the young masters in the capital city have heard of my sister's reputation. "
"One day, a man came to me and told me how much he loved my sister. He knew that Suqin and I were sisters and wanted me to set him up with her. He was very affectionate and pitiful, so I relented and agreed. "
"And then? "
And then... ...
Zhang Xuan already completely can not go on, all blame her credulity others, will cause today's big mistake.
Gu Ruochu saw that her eyes were filled with tears and could not ask any more questions. She could only console her by the side.
"Tea is ready, Madam, " said the servant, standing outside.
"Alright. " Zhang Xuan stood up and pulled her daughter out of the room. She then asked the maid to call Huo Nanchen over "In the past, I did not fulfill my responsibility as a mother by your side. But now that I see that you've married and have someone to rely on, and that you're living a blissful life, I'm completely relieved. "
Gu Ruochu's eyes were a little sour as she nodded.
"Madam, the housekeeper said that the son-in-law had something to attend to and left first. A few bodyguards are here and said that they'll be back soon. "
"Alright. "
Zhang Xuan was slightly relieved that Huo Nanchen was not around. She could still spend some time alone with her daughter.
The mother and daughter chatted for a long time. A few hours later, Ning Tang returned home from the office.
Gu Ruochu glanced at the clock on the wall. It had been three hours since Huo Nanchen had left and she was not used to it.
Zhang Xuan could see her emotions and pursed her lips into a smile.
It seemed that Ruo Chu was very dependent on Huo Nanchen. The more dependent she was, the better a man would treat her. Back then, when she was pregnant, she could not leave Ning Tang.
Zhang Xuan felt a little uncomfortable when she thought about the child.
Soon, Zhang Xuan prepared dinner. Gu Ruochu finally could not help but call him. He did not pick up the call the first time. He had always been able to pick up Gu ruochu's calls very quickly. Now, seeing that he had not made a single sound, he dialed the number a second time and a third time without saying a word.
It was not until the third time that the call was picked up, "Ruo Chu, are you looking for me? "
Gu Ruochu did not say a word. It was obvious that she was already complaining in her heart.
"You miss me? " His voice sounded even gentler on the other end, "be good, I'll be back soon to settle some things here. "
"when are you coming back? It's almost dinner time. "
Huo Nanchen looked at the watch on his wrist. It was already five o'clock.
