Chapter 208 - It's Not Over Yet

Gu Chu did not shout at her, nor was she hysterical. Her tone was calm, but firm.

From this moment on, she had nothing to do with the Gu family anymore.

After Gu Chu finished speaking, she walked to Feng Jia and did not look at anyone else.

Feng Jia wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into his arms.

Before Susan could finish her sentence, she looked down at Gu Wan, who seemed to be in a daze from Gu Chu’s scolding. “Ms. Gu, so your adoptive parents did not treat you well?”

Gu Wan wiped her tears and tried to wipe the wine stains off her face. However, that caused her makeup to be smeared as well.

She didn’t really care anymore. “Why would they be good to me? Moreover, they value sons over daughters.”

“I’ve known since I was young that studying was my only way out. It was the only way I could escape from there. I studied hard and got first place in every exam. Even so, after I finished junior high school, they wouldn’t let me continue!”

If the village authority had not made it mandatory to complete nine years of education, she might not even have been able to attend school.

“Fortunately, I met a good teacher. It was she who helped me convince them and paid for my tuition. Only then could I leave the village and go into town to study. I thought that after I finished my studies, I would be able to get into university and out of that place.”

“But…” She laughed out loud, “in the third year of high school, they received a dowry. They wanted to marry me off! They wanted to destroy my life!”

Mrs. Gu knew about her past, but no matter how many times she heard it, her heart still ached. She quickly stepped forward to hug her daughter and shed tears with her.

Mr. Gu also sighed deeply. He turned around and wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes.

Hearing this, everyone felt sympathy for her.

The Gu family’s eldest daughter was suddenly kidnapped and sold into such a miserable life. If she had stayed in the Gu family, her future would definitely have been bright. She would definitely not be like this.

No wonder Mrs. Gu pampered her so unconditionally. She felt sorry for her own daughter.

Gu Chu lowered her eyes and thought to herself, “in order to pay off her debts, Gu Wan became a mistress. She was beaten and scolded, and she wasted her college education. She paid the price for her actions when she was eight years old.”

One wrong move had changed her life.

Gu Chu did not want to listen to it anymore. She said in a low voice, “let’s go.”

Feng Jia said, “this matter is not over yet.”

Susan said slowly, “so, you instigated Shen Shan to kill your adoptive parents, is that right?”

Gu Wan trembled and shouted, “no!”

As soon as she said that, a large group of police officers rushed in from outside the door.

What’s happening?

The guests all took a step back in surprise.

“You can tell the police yourself.” Susan nodded slightly, completing the task that Feng Jia had given her.

However, she still had some personal things to say to her.

“I also have a sister. Our relationship has always been very bad. My parents preferred her and often gave her my share of allowance. I’m also very upset.”

“However, I’m not jealous. Instead, I chose to be independent. I stayed away from them, and supported myself.”

“Jealousy and resentment are all very normal emotions, but they should not be grounds for committing a crime. Because in the end, you’re the one who pays the price.”
