Gu Qingyuan's arrival broke the stalemate in the break room.
Although Gu Xiaonuan seemed unfriendly towards Gu Qingyuan on the surface, she didn't regard him in the same light as Zhao Ying.
Because Gu Qingyuan had married Zhao Ying, he had been taking less care of her and her mother than before.
Having established a new family, Gu Qingyuan still managed to support his ex-wife who he had driven out, even after so many years; it's doubtful whether others could have remained steadfast until now.
Zhao Ying was a tigress. Gu Xiaonuan could imagine how hard Gu Qingyuan must have struggled to scrape together the money for medical expenses.
"Nuannuan, let's go home and talk about this. Dad will stand up for you and will absolutely not side with certain people."
The 'certain people' Gu Qingyuan referred to was, of course, Zhao Ying.
Since Gu Xijue had moved out, Gu Qingyuan had to argue with Zhao Ying every day.
