"What do I want?" Huang Meixiang glared fiercely at Gu Ruochu as she gnashed her teeth. "I want to send this woman to prison! I also want Huo Zirui to marry Lili and give her the status of a wife. Otherwise, we will never give up!"
Mrs. Huo's expression turned ugly when she heard Huang Meixiang's request. How could a woman with such a bad reputation and no status marry into the Huo family?
"Ruochu made a mistake this time, but she only caused Gu Li to miscarry..."
"Mother, this woman cannot stay in the Huo family anymore. She harmed an unborn baby. One can only imagine how cruel and merciless she is!" Huo Zirui went along with Huang Meixiang's words. He added coldly, "Mother, I want her to give an explanation for killing my unborn child."
Gu Ruochu could not find the words to describe and idiot like Huo Zirui.
"Mrs. Huo, I know that you like Gu Ruochu, but you're a member of the upper class, and your reputation is greater than the heavens. If people find out that you're protecting a woman who could even harm a baby, aren't you afraid that they will point their fingers at the Huo family and scold you?"
Huang Meixiang's voice was incomparably sharp, and she was full of confidence. "Gu Ruochu must go to jail, and my daughter must marry into the family. Otherwise, this matter will not end. Mrs. Huo, you decide!"
Mrs. Huo reached her breaking point. She sympathized with Gu Li for losing her child, but that did not mean that she had regressed. It also did not mean that she could allow the other party to be so aggressive.
"Huang Meixiang, watch your tone. If you're only here to cause trouble and not settle Gu Li's matter, I'll have no choice but to ask my bodyguards to get you out of here!"
"Mrs. Huo, don't be so shameless!" Huang Meixiang became even more brazen when she got angry. "Since you have such an attitude, I will ask the Ning family to help us find a top-notch lawyer. I'm going to sue all of you! Even if I can't kill you, I'll make your reputation stink in the upper-class society!"
With the backing of the Ning family, Huang Meixiang was unscrupulous. Gu Qiang felt a sense of relief when he saw his wife's unyielding attitude. She was even bullying Mrs. Huo!
"Shut up, all of you!"
Huo Zhenggang had listened to the argument for a while and finally lost his patience.
"Mr. Huo, are you trying to cover up for your shortcomings?" Gu Qiang heard Huo Zhenggang finally speak and felt that it was time to speak. He deliberately glanced at Gu Ruochu, who was silent.
"Did I say that I would cover up for my own shortcomings?"
Everyone understood what Huo Zhenggang meant when he spoke. This time, Gu Ruochu would not protect herself, even if she was a living bodhisattva. She would go to prison.
Huang Meixiang's lips curled into a smug smile. Now that she had helped her daughter get rid of a powerful enemy, Gu Li would marry into the Huo family without any worries.
"That's more like it. Mrs. Huo, you should learn from your husband. I really don't know how your brain works. You don't understand the ways of the world. No wonder you like a daughter-in-law like Gu Ruochu, who has such a vile character."
Huang Meixiang's words were full of sarcasm. Mrs. Huo gritted her teeth. This was the first time she had been forced into such a helpless situation.
"Mrs. Gu, is your big show about to come to an end?" Gu Ruochu, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke. She still looked as calm as ever.
Her words confused everyone present.
"What? Mrs. Gu, have you lost your mind?" Gu Ruochu looked at her. She was as cold and indifferent. "I'll repeat myself, is your big show over? If it's over, then it's my turn. Your greasy acting skills really annoy me."
Her words provoked Huang Meixiang's anger, while the others had a puzzled look on their faces.
