Gu Man felt that it was necessary to resolve the matter at once so that Gu Yuan would not have the title of adopting an orphan despite not bearing the responsibility.
Seeing Gu Man's deep expression, Gu Yuan was afraid that she would expose everything without rhyme or reason. He quickly said, "Gu Man, there are some things that we can just explain when we get back. Why make a fool of our family in public?"
"Since you've come to look for me now, let's make things clear at once. As long as you don't slander me, I won't say anything else. While everyone is here, I want to make it clear again that I have nothing to do with the Gu family from now on."
The people around them started whispering.
Mrs. Zhou walked over and approached Gu Man. She asked softly, "Gu Man, why don't you consider it again? It's not easy to leave a family and live alone. You still have to take the college entrance examination. You can leave after university."
