Chapter 465 – She wonders if her mother ever regretted about her decisions. (4)

Huo ChuChu gritted her teeth. She wasn’t planning on sharing where she went.

But, somehow, she did.

“Do you know? You are about to be a grandmother.”

Even when Mother Huo wanted her to replace her brother, she still couldn’t just call her Mom affectionately.

This family had been broken up many years ago.

Let it be her, or her second brother, none of them were able to be close and affectionate toward their mother or their grandmother.

Because they had both once abandoned on of their own children!

And every one in this family was a witness to that.

As their children, they could never be close to them again.

The moment that Huo ChuChu walked inside, she suddenly realized her second brother’s stubbornness when it came to Gu Wushuang.

It wasn’t about love; it was a form of test.

Much like her own rebellion back in the days.

He went all the way to where he was because he wanted to know how much his mother valued him in her heart.

How rock-solid was her heart!

Was it true that she would never take a step back for them or admit fault no matter what?

“That Gu Wushuang…” Mother Huo put down her wine glass in shock. After a little while, she shook her head, “No, that Gu Shishi?”

She wasn’t just a prominent housewife that stayed home day in and day out.

Huo Wencheng had told her in the past that her youngest daughter had been in contact with Huo Sishen. She even locked her up at the time.

Recently, her little daughter demonstrated amazing talent in the business world and had successfully negotiated a few big contracts for the company and her ROI was amazingly good. She had since slowly relaxed her monitoring on her.

As a upper management of a corporation, she would need some independent courage.

That was when Zhang Wen decided to loosen up and give her daughter some room.

Huo ChuChu pulled her lips a little and said, “Mmm.”

Her mother wanted to have grandchildren. This was some faceslapping for her!

The second son that had coddled his entire life found himself a sickly fake daughter and decided to stop coming home when she objected to that.

The older son, whom she had given up, on the other hand, found himself a healthy, competent girl from a prominent family with good temperament. And they were pregnant shortly after they were wedded.

Huo ChuChu wondered if her mother regretted about her past decision when she heard this news.

Did she ever had a shred of guilt and even remotely thought of making up for her past behaviors by now?!

“I am going to head upstairs.”

Huo ChuChu turned and walked away.

Mother Gu paused for a little bit and finally grunted an acknowledgement.

By then she was already alone in the living room.

Only her own slight sigh resounded in the empty living room.

The glass on the glass coffee table was filled out to the brim before anyone knew it.

Wine, red like blood, rolled down the side of the glass…

The first thing that Gu Shishi did every morning after she was woken up was to rub her belly groggily.

She had the illusion that it had grown bigger or that it had not.

By the time she was done with that, another large hand would always reach over and rubbed it for a long while as well.

“Chuchu said we shouldn’t call them Xiao A. Not domineering enough, she said.”

The new aunty offered up her own precious opinion.

She raised her brows while having her arms wrapped lightly around her man.

“She said she will give it some thoughts in the next few days and get back to us on that.”

Over the last few days, Gu Shishi had slowly come to the realization that she was bad at coming up with names.

The man next to her, however, hrumphed lightly, “She needs to mind her own business first.”

A wasn’t the point. The point was going from A to K to Q… she was opining on things that she had no idea about.

Gu Shishi flipped over lazily and fished around under her pillow but wasn’t able to locate her cellphone that she had placed on the bed the night before.

“Here.”

The man reached out his long arm and pulled it out from the drawer on the night stand.

Apparently he had put it away for her after she had fallen asleep.

“How come you are still home?”

Gu Shishi had been sleeping until she woke up naturally as of late, usually around 8 or 9 AM.

The fact that the workaholic would still be in bed at this hour was unscientific.

“Mmm, taking you to a live show.”

“?!”
