"I like the way she struggles on her deathbed."
2Gu Ruochu could not forget the fact that Gu Li had helped Gu Yanwei. She disliked everyone in the Gu family.
2All of a sudden, there was a commotion in the outer hall.
2"Eh, it seems to be Gu Li."
2"Let's go out and take a look."
2When they made it to the outer hall, they saw Gu Li standing next to Huo Zirui in a grievance. Mrs. Huo was furious. Gu Ruochu knew that pretending to be pitiful was the Gu family's way of doing things. Gu Li had done something disgusting and made it seem like it was someone else's fault.
2Mrs. Huo appeared helpless against her.
2"Auntie, the child is innocent."
2Gu Li cried until she was out of breath. Huo Zirui held her and said irritably, "Mom, she's still pregnant!"
2When she heard Huo Zirui defend her, Gu Li's face revealed an evil smile. With this child, she could do whatever she wanted in the Huo family. In time, Gu Ruochu would suffer!
2Mrs. Huo could not take it anymore. Gu Li had poisoned her son against her.
2"Lili, don't tell me that you're suffering from fetal qi?" Gu Ruochu walked over, and the corners of her lips curled up. "It's only been half a month. Isn't it a little too early for you to be suffering from fetal qi? If your body is so weak, you should stay in bed."
2"Sister-in-law, it's not your place to speak about my matters!" Huo Zirui's hand clenched into a terrifying fist.
2Gu Li looked at her with arrogance and disdain. She now had someone to protect her.
2Gu Ruochu raised her eyebrows. "Why is it that I'm only concerned about you? Third Brother, you're acting as if I've hit a sore spot. Don't forget that your father hasn't agreed to let you keep the child. Gu Li, you've only been pregnant for half a month. Huo Zirui's father could ask you to abort the child. Isn't it a little too early for you to be cocky?"
2Gu Li subconsciously touched her abdomen. With Huo Zirui by her side, she felt untouchable.
2"This is our child. No one has the right to punish us." Gu Li turned around and complained, "Zirui, my cousin can't stand to see me get well. She's so vicious that she wants me to abort the child!"
2Gu Li always liked to twist other people's words.
"All right, stop annoying me." Huo Zirui was upset when Gu Ruochu mentioned Huo Zhenggang. He did not know what would happen if his father disowned the child. Gu Li felt wronged but shut her mouth. She could not afford to provoke Huo Zirui.
2"Huo Zirui, if you still have any brains, hurry up and take this woman away instead of being angry at your mother." Gu Ruochu pointed at the clock. "Father will be back in three hours."
2Huo Zirui did not speak again. He looked at Gu Li with an annoyed expression. "I'll send you back first. I'll explain everything to my father tonight."
2"All right, remember to call me. The baby will miss you."
2Gu Ruochu laughed when she heard Gu Li use the child as an excuse. Her pregnancy was barely showing, but she had already resorted to such desperate tricks.
2When Gu Li finally left, everyone was relieved.
2That night, Huo Nanchen did not return. Gu Ruochu lay on the bed alone.
2Her heart was empty, and when she finally got some sleep, she had nightmares. Mrs. Huo was worried. She wore a cloak and waited downstairs until eleven o'clock, but Huo Nanchen was nowhere to be seen.
