Chapter 172 - What Caused Mother Zhuang's Car Accident?
Chapter 172: What Caused Mother Zhuang’s Car Accident?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Thud!”
She closed the door.
The tense atmosphere in the study room just now turned heavy in the blink of an eye.
After a while, Gu Deshou heaved a deep sigh.
Zhuang Nainai raised her head and, at this moment, she realized, Gu Deshou was no longer the sweet-talking male host of the Gu family. His expression had become more serious, exuding the distinct charisma of a mature man.
Gu Deshou was rather good-looking. Otherwise, Zhuang Nainai would not have inherited such good genes.
No matter how hard she tried to deny the fact that Mother Zhuang had stolen a child, she still could not ignore how they looked; her features truly encompassed all the good genes of Gu Deshou and Li Yufeng.
“Qingyan…” Gu Deshou began to speak. “Just ignore her. She just feels terrible that she cannot punish Mother Zhuang.”
Zhuang Nainai did not know how to reply to such words, so she simply acknowledged them with a sound of affirmation.
Gu Deshou sighed deeply. “Qingyan, don’t blame me either. You are different from Xinghao and Xingshan because you hadn’t been with us since young. Moreover, we forced you into a marriage when you just returned home, so you must be feeling so much hatred towards us. If we had time and if Gu Corporation were not at the edge of bankruptcy, Father would not have forced you to do this. But now… Gu Corporation is the fruit of my hard work. I started this company at 18 years old and I finally saw some accomplishments after slogging for over 30 years. Qingyan, Gu Corporation is older than you, Father… cannot bear to let it go!”
At this point, Gu Deshou’s eyes had watered.
Zhuang Nainai could not identify any superficial acts or feelings from the behaviors of Gu Deshou and Li Yufeng.
However, Zhuang Nainai still could not sympathize with them.
One could say that she was being cold-blooded and heartless, but the past five years had been so tough that she had already suppressed the emotional aspects of a human, so she would not feel sympathy for others that easily.
As a result, Zhuang Nainai still sounded very logical. “What do you want?”
Gu Deshou looked at her with some disappointment. He only began speaking after while, “About half of Gu Corporation’s funds are invested in the fashion industry. However, the fashion industry has been in a slump for the past few years. We survived the capital turnover crisis this time, but if we still do not earn profits this year, we will face bankruptcy again next year. Qingyan, the public has been receptive of the fashion apparel brand under the Imperial Group, and the apparels they have designed have been trending amongst the younger crowd. So, I was wondering if you could ask Mr. Si to allow their design team to design a few apparels for Gu Corporation.”
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Nainai raised her brows.
Gu Deshou was very tactful while saying this, and his tone was very polite, but he was holding Mother Zhuang hostage, so she did not have the power to say no, didn’t she?
Zhuang Nainai did not answer and instead asked, “Where is my mother now?”
Gu Deshou understood that Zhuang Nainai was negotiating with him, so he went along and said, “She is overseas. The psychiatrist overseas said that he had to know Mother Zhuang’s specific conditions to provide her with treatment more easily. What we want to know now is what had happened to her that caused her to become like this.”
What had happened to her?
There was bitterness on Zhuang Nainai’s face. “She injured her head in a car accident.”
Gu Deshou was shocked. “Car accident? Why did it happen?”
Right, why did it happen?
Mother Zhuang had always been a careful person. She never allowed herself to be injured or sick. She always said that she could not fall sick because if she fell sick, no one could look after Nainai.
How could a mother like this be in a car accident?
Zhuang Nainai looked down as the disaster from five years ago flashed before her eyes again.
