Chapter 185 - Madam Yu
Chapter 185: Madam Yu
The phone call was just the beginning.
Gu Qingjiu could still remember how arrogant the Yu family was.
Back then, when they learned of her existence, they merely sent a secretary to look for Gu Qingjiu.
What was her attitude then?
She even felt somewhat terrified when she saw the elite-looking secretary appear before her.
All her life, she felt perturbed and nervous towards the unfamiliar.
When she found out she was born to a prominent family in the North City, she was in disbelief.
Their glamorous appearance made Gu Qingjiu feel excited.
All because she had never been to that kind of place.
But Gu Qingjiu never really thought of returning to the Yu family.
Her adoptive parents treated her extremely well, so she never thought of returning to live with the Yu family. She knew to be content with what she had.
But the reason she went back to the Yu house was just to see what her biological parents were like.
The events that followed, even recalling it now, made Gu Qingjiu feel like vomiting.
Towards the members of the Yu family, towards everything related to the Yu family.
She had merely been reborn and had joined the military, and it already made this arrogant madam call her.
With her proud personality, she would definitely be furious with how Qingjiu had hung up the phone. There was no way she would discard her face to call a second time.
Also, Gu Qingjiu remembered that it wasn’t the woman’s real number.
Why? Was she afraid Gu Qingjiu would call to harass her?
Gu Qingjiu’s lips arched mockingly. At that moment, Yu Shiwei’s alliance marriage was a pressing matter.
The Yu family wouldn’t let it rest at that.
Having been rejected once, this madam wouldn’t show up again. But she would definitely send someone over.
In her previous life, to check on her Gu father’s connections and relations in Dayi City, the Yu family spent quite some time before they decided to forcibly take Gu Qingjiu away from the Gu family. It would probably be some time until the Yu family took action.
Gu Qingjiu had been bearing the hatred for so long, and now they finally showed up.
This made her feel at ease on the contrary.
Since she had chosen the military path, she could only give it her all.
What she needed to focus on was the coming Monday’s dueling session.
If she could get a victory this time, there was no reason she wouldn’t be selected into the advanced training camp.
After she had sorted out her thoughts, Gu Qingjiu calmed herself down and to sleep.
However, Gu Qingjiu didn’t know that things were heading in a direction she couldn’t have expected.
…
North City, Yu family.
Inside the villa of a prominent family in North City, the Yu family house.
A wealthy woman who exuded an exquisite and luxurious aura stood in the living room. Holding onto a phone, her face took a shade of green after someone had dropped the line on her.
She was that woman who Gu Qingjiu had hung up on earlier—Tan Yalan!
When Tan Yalan heard the beeping sound from her phone, her expression turned ghastly and she slammed her phone on the sofa.
Beside her stood an aged female servant. Seeing Tan Yalan’s actions, she picked up the phone in a flustered manner.
“How can she say something like her biological parents had long been dead? How was this child brought up?”
Tan Yalan had exquisitely carved facial features. But with her age, she couldn’t quite conceal the fatigue on her face.
Though, from her exquisite makeup, one could still tell how stunningly beautiful she must have been in her younger days.
