Suddenly having one less competitor, Lu Lingche felt at ease, but he was worried that Qiao Yin might suffer hardships: "Have they bullied you in the Gu Family? Has Gu Jing caused you trouble? Has Hou Jinhua tried to hurt you again?"
"No."
Qiao Yin's voice was calm: "Old Sir Gu protects me; no one bullies me, and moreover, I'm not someone who can be bullied anymore."
In the past, she had belittled herself in the Lu Family, always swallowing her grievances, even if Madam Lu berated her, she never dared to talk back to her mother-in-law.
That was because she loved Lu Lingche too much at that time, and where there was love, there were weaknesses, and with weaknesses came endless compromises and concessions.
But in the Gu Family, she loved no one, so she had no weaknesses, and she was without any reservations.
