“Chengxin, you don’t have to explain. I’m here to help you. “When the old man heard Chengxin’s words, he frowned even more. His tone was full of dissatisfaction with Anhao and even more displeasure at Zuo Hancheng’s protection of Anhao.
“Grandfather, forget it.” Chengxin looked up at Zuo Hancheng and whispered, “”Hancheng doesn’t want Anhao to be hurt. Let’s forget about this matter. Anyway, there was nothing going on anyway…”
“How can we just let it go like this? Hancheng was mesmerized by Gu Anhao, this little vixen, and he could not tell the good from the bad!”
The old man said angrily and then said coldly, “Hancheng, think about it carefully. You should know Chengxin’s personality. The weather outside is so cold now. How could she be so stupid to stand outside for so long and not come back? If Gu Anhao didn’t deliberately let her catch a cold outside, she would have come back long ago. It was obvious that Gu Anhao was up to no good in this matter! This is the most obvious answer!”
As soon as the old man finished speaking, a figure suddenly ran in from outside the door.
Zuo Yue ran in in a hurry and said while panting,””Aiya, why are you all here?”
As she spoke, Zuo Yue suddenly walked towards Anhao.””Anhao, you’re back? You scared me to death. I ran back to my room to call someone else after answering a phone call that almost angered me to death. I completely forgot about you! Just now, I suddenly remembered that I seemed to have asked you to wait for me in the courtyard. Fortunately, you were smart enough to know that I wasn’t reliable, so you came back first. Otherwise, I was really afraid that you would catch a cold after waiting for too long. If you caught a cold, Brother and Father and Mother would definitely scold me to death…”
The room instantly fell silent.
Zuo Yue’s few unintentional words successfully reversed the situation. The old man immediately glanced at Zuo Yue. Cheng Xin’s face became even paler. Her eyes gradually drooped down, avoiding the questioning eyes of the people around her.
Xu Yuan walked over and held Zuo Yue’s hand.””Did you ask Anhao to wait for you outside?”
“Yeah, why?” Zuo Yue turned around and said in confusion,””Didn’t
Sister-in-law come back early? He didn’t catch a cold, right? I was outside with Sister-in-law just now when my phone suddenly rang. I ran to answer the phone and asked her to wait for me. In the end, I forgot about her. When I remembered it just now, I was so scared that I rushed over.”
Xu Yuan’s gaze fell on Anhao again, and she said softly,””Dad, I think we should just forget about this matter. You’ve seen what happened between Zuo Yue and Anhao. Anhao was not familiar with the Zuo family, but she came back first because she felt the weather getting cold. She did not continue to wait for Zuo Yue, that crazy girl. Miss Cheng is already very familiar with the Zuo family, but in the end…”
Xu Yuan was only halfway through her sentence when she looked directly into the old man’s eyes.”Dad, I think we should just forget about it.”
“Aunt Zuo, it was really Miss Gu who asked me to wait for her…” Chengxin suddenly said softly.
Hearing Cheng Xin slandering Anhao at this time, Xu Yuan had some friendship with Cheng Family. Even though she already understood the situation, she couldn’t be too confident. She just sighed and looked at Cheng
Xin, then at the old man.
Anhao didn’t say anything else, but her lips curled up coldly.
There was really nothing in life that was not melodramatic.
The eldest daughter of the Cheng family wanted to slander her with such a ridiculous thing, but she forgot that the Zuo family was smart and no one was stupid.
She thought that no one would question the truth if the old man protected her. However, she had miscalculated. In the Zuo family, she, Gu Anhao, was the real granddaughter-in-law. Other than the old man, everyone else was on her side.
Therefore, no matter how much blood Chengxin spilled, not many people would buy it.
“Zuo Yue, accompany Anhao back to her room to rest.”Zuo Hancheng suddenly said coldly.
Anhao was stunned. She turned to look at Zuo Hancheng and saw that he was looking at the old man with a clear gaze. She hesitated for a moment and knew that the current situation was actually beneficial to her. Since Zuo Hancheng did not want her to get involved, she obediently turned around and looked at Zuo Yue.
Although Zuo Yue did not understand the situation, she still obediently came over to hold Anhao’s hand and whispered,””Sister-in-law, the atmosphere here isn’t right. Let’s go.”
Anhao hesitated for a moment before she glanced at Zuo Hancheng again. Then, she turned around and nodded politely at Zuo Hancheng’s mother.
Xu Yuan gave Anhao a gentle smile as a form of comfort. She then nodded to signal for her to go to bed early.
Anhao then turned around and followed Zuo Yue.
After walking out, Anhao was no longer aware of the situation in the front hall. However, when she thought of Zuo Hancheng’s unfriendly expression and gaze, she figured that she did not need to explain or intervene in this matter anymore.
However, she really did not expect Chengxin to use such a childish and despicable method to target her.
Did he really think that he could be easily toyed with at the age of nineteen?
Did he really think that she wouldn’t resist at all just because she was cautious in the Zuo family?
Chengxin might be smart and knew how to manipulate people’s hearts, but the person she offended was Gu Anhao.
When they returned to Zuo Hancheng’s bedroom, Zuo Yue, who had just found out about the situation, was still indignant and kept scolding Chengxin for being a sinister person. She really did not expect that a person like Chengxin would do such a despicable thing besides being hypocritical.
“Why does Grandpa like Chengxin so much?”ln the room, Anhao asked curiously.
Zuo Yue rolled her eyes at the door and said,””That’s all because of the strong brotherhood between Grandpa and Grandpa Cheng. The Zuo family has a history of 200 years in the United States, but when Grandpa took over the Zuo family’s business when he was young, he encountered a financial crisis. The Zuo family was almost destroyed in his hands. It was Grandpa Cheng who helped her get back a part of the important funds, so that the Zuo family could rise again.”
“Although Grandpa is a stubborn old man, he still remembers the kindness of the past and treats Grandpa Cheng’s children very well. Now that Grandpa Cheng’s granddaughter is here, he has always wanted Grandpa Cheng’s granddaughter to become his granddaughter-in-law.”
So that was the case. It seemed that the old man’s life experience was suitable for writing a melodramatic novel.
When Chengxin slandered Anhao, it was already midnight. Anhao and Zuo Yue were chatting in the room and both of them fell asleep by the bed.
After that, she didn’t know who was the first one to lie on the bed. Anyway, when the morning sun shone through the window, Anhao opened her eyes. What she saw was not Zuo Hancheng’s familiar handsome face, but Zuo Yue’s strange sleeping position.
Anhao suddenly sat up and raised her hand to grab her hair. She turned around and saw that it was already seven in the morning.
Zuo Hancheng didn’t come back to rest for the entire night?
