175 Young Master Zhang’s Heartache

When Zhang Yue saw that Gu Man left without even looking at him, his heart ached slightly.

However, he did not want to admit that he was self-explanatory because he was angry.

Bai Yun looked at Zhang Yue chasing after Gu Man’s gaze and felt a little disdainful. He was really greedy! He actually wanted to be two-timing!

When Bai Yun was investigating the Gu Family, he knew that Zhang Yue and Gu Man had a verbal engagement. However, after the Huang Family lost their power, the Zhang Family abandoned this engagement.

He wondered if Old Master Zhang knew, would he be so angry that he would come back to life?

Bai Yun asked mockingly, “Young Master Zhang, if you keep looking at Gu Man like this, people who don’t know better will think that she’s your girlfriend.”

Zhang Yue suddenly came back to his senses and realized that he had lost his composure.

“Young Master Bai, you must be joking. Gu Man is Gu Rou’s sister. I treat her like my own sister.”

Bai Yun smiled. “That’s good.”

“I’ll go over and see my mother first. I’m going to sit down later.”

Zhang Yue nodded at Mrs. Zhou and Xiang Li before leaving.

After Zhang Yue left, Xiang Li glanced at Mrs. Zhou. “You know Gu Man too?”

“I don’t just know her. My daughter, Zhou Ying, was once held hostage by a robber and was saved by Gu Man. Because I don’t want my daughter to see related reports online, I blocked almost all news,” Mrs. Zhou said with a sigh.

Ever since Zhou Ying was held hostage, the Zhou Family had used their family’s power to cover up the news. The videos and reports on the Internet were gradually suppressed, so if one did not have firsthand information, they wouldn’t know that Zhou Ying had been held hostage.

Xiang Li remembered that not long ago, Bai Ling had shown her the video of Gu Man saving someone. At that time, she had been focused on Gu Man and did not notice Zhou Ying.

Xiang Li grabbed Mrs. Zhou’s hand and comforted her. “I understand. You naturally have your reasons for not telling me.”

Xiang Li then looked at Gu Man’s departing figure and praised, “I didn’t expect a little girl like Gu Man to be so capable.”

“That’s right, and she’s someone who doesn’t ask for anything in return. I wanted to thank her later, but she rejected me. I could only give her the MK bag when Captain Wang brought me into the Gu family’s house.”

Towards the end, Mrs. Zhou smiled bitterly.

However, Xiang Li was already laughing. “This is the first time you’ve been so aggrieved when giving a gift.”

Mrs. Zhou also smiled and said, “That’s right. This child’s personality is indifferent. It was a piece of cake for her to save Zhou Ying. Who knew that I treated her as my savior? Look at how happy my Zhou Ying is to see her now. After this incident, my Zhou Ying’s personality completely changed. She used to be arrogant and unruly, but now she’s gentle. I wonder if it’s a blessing in disguise.”

Xiang Li was enlightened. “I knew it. Why did your Zhou Ying change so much? I thought that she had grown up and finally calmed down. It turns out that there was a reason for it. When I heard it from you, I can imagine how dangerous it was back then. It’s really all thanks to Gu Man.”

“That’s right. I heard Captain Wang mention that scene afterward, and my heart was beating very fast. That was a repeat offender that Captain Wang had been tracking for eight years. If my Zhou Ying had been kidnapped, she would have died. If not for Gu Man, I really don’t dare to imagine...”

Seeing that Mrs. Zhou’s hand was about to tremble, Xiang Li reached out to grab it, as if she wanted to give her strength. “Fortunately, your Zhou Ying is safe now. You have to look forward.”

Mrs. Zhou took a deep breath and forced a smile at Xiang Li. “Alright, I’ll listen to you and move on. I didn’t dare to tell you before because I was afraid when I thought of that scene. Now that I can tell you, I can slowly get over it.”

Xiang Li smiled and nodded. “That’s good. I saw that your Zhou Ying was smiling so happily just now. She should have walked out of her trauma.”

“When she saw Gu Man, she was especially happy,” Mrs. Zhou said with a smile.

Xiang Li asked in confusion, “Gu Man looks cold, but look at Zhou Ying and Bai Ling. They like to be close to her. It’s really strange.”

“Gu Man is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. She doesn’t like to be calculative. My Zhou Ying said that she had even said bad things about Gu Man in person before. She bullied Gu Man because she came back from the countryside, but Gu Man has never fussed over it. She helped her when she needed it. After that, she never mentioned the past. How can they not like her?”

Xiang Li nodded and praised, “How rare.”
