My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 780: How to Say It Out Loud_1

But it was not peaceful in the Gu Family. Mrs. Gu and Gu Yan, mother and son, had an unprecedented argument.

"Gu Yan, have you lost your mind? How could you accept him as your father? He’s a cruel and heartless father who will never truly care about you," Mrs. Gu’s voice filled with urgency.

Ever since she saw the news on TV, announcing that the Jun Family had recognized Gu Yan.

She had been in shock.

She simply couldn’t believe it. She had thought that Gu Yan’s attendance at the banquet was simply out of a grudge against Ye Lu.

Never had she expected that Jun Shi would acknowledge Gu Yan as his son.

In that instant, she felt an incomparable sense of absurdity and intense fear. A fear that she couldn’t articulate. She felt like everything was veering in a grotesque and bizarre direction. She couldn’t understand Jun Shi’s thought process, neither could she understand Gu Yan’s.

Jun Shi should have had no interest in this son of his. Even knowing of his existence, he never considered acknowledging him.

When he first saw Gu Yan, he was completely indifferent. How could such a man suddenly welcome Gu Yan back with open arms, patronizing him so affectionately?

And Gu Yan, he had always hated this father. For so many years, he had held a grudge against Jun Shi. But now, he has become close with Jun Shi, presenting as a harmonious father-son pair.

"They are both crazy," was all she could say at the time.

"He used to be cruel to me, but now he has changed. He said he felt guilty, ignoring me in the past," Gu Yan’s tone flat.

Regardless of whether Jun Shi’s feelings were genuine or fake, he was satisfied now. He had a father and grandparents’ love.

"But you forgot, this man has disregarded you since you were little. Did you forgive him so easily?"

"Why shouldn’t I forgive?" Gu Yan stared at her coldly, a chill burning in his eyes, "There are relatives in this world who have done worse than him and done more vicious things."

He had heard from Jun Shi that when Jun Shi came looking for them, he initially believed he was his son too. But Mrs. Gu persistently told Jun Shi, he was not.

Causing Jun Shi to misunderstand, and not take him away with him.

He was full of anger. He couldn’t understand why his mother favored Jun Huang so much, even depriving him of his chance to have a father.

But Jun Shi told him a shocking truth, that he was not Mrs. Gu’s child but her friend Liu Ziqi’s child.

It was laughable that for over twenty years, he had regarded her as his biological mother. But she was just his foster mother. So she only pretended to care about him, but in reality, she had always prioritized her son, Jun Huang. She even denied his father’s recognition for Jun Huang to become the heir of the Jun Family.

Now, looking at her concerned and worried face, he truly felt utter disgust.

"But..." Upon seeing him defend Jun Shi in such a manner, Mrs. Gu grew even more anxious. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"But what? What reason do you have to prevent me from acknowledging my father? Why are you so against it? Why?" Gu Yan pressed, confronting Mrs. Gu.

Mrs. Gu was momentarily speechless, only looking at him with sadness.

How could she possibly tell him? Should she tell him that his biological mother was tortured to death by Jun Shi, and he was nearly stillborn because of it, such cruel truth? He would definitely not be able to accept it. After all, his own father had killed his own mother, there’s no greater sorrow in the world than this, he would go mad.

"Seems like you really have nothing to say. Then don’t try to stop me."

Gu Yan turned coldly and was just walking upstairs when he heard a maidservant urgently shouting that Ye Wanli was causing a scene at the door.

Gu Yan frowned, stepping outside, and indeed saw that rascal, Ye Wanli.
