C1871 Apologize and Admit Your Mistake
Zhou's.
Ever since Huo Niannian and Zhou Tong left, the entire Zhou family fell into a deathly silence.
Du Ruoqing sat on the sofa uneasily, watching Zhou Madam as if nothing had happened and preparing dinner...
Du Ruoqing waited for a long time, but she still couldn't figure out what her aunt was thinking. Was she angry or was she thinking about whether she should agree to Huo Niannian's request?
Du Ruoqing did not know. She clenched her fists and loosened them again and again. She clenched and loosened them again and again as if a light was on her back.
She did not want her aunt to agree to Huo Niannian's request...
She had never seen her aunt get angry because of anyone. The first time she saw her was because of herself.
Du Ruoqing really wanted to apologize and admit defeat to her aunt, but she didn't know what to say.
She thought about it and couldn't think of a suitable excuse, so she could only sit there by herself.
The sky outside gradually darkened. If she didn't open her mouth, she would have gone back.
Du Ruoqing steeled her heart and braced herself to say to Zhou Madam, "Aunt..."
Zhou Madam's hands did not stop moving and did not even raise her head to look at her.
Du Ruoqing knew that this was because her aunt was still angry with her.
"I'm sorry, aunt. I know I was wrong."
After saying this, Zhou Madam finally put down the thing in her hand. She turned around and looked up at Du Ruoqing.
Zhou Madam saw Du Ruoqing's eyes turn red and she still had some tenderness in her heart. She then sighed.
This niece of hers had grown up being surrounded by stars since she was young. She had never suffered any grievances nor had she encountered any setbacks. Because of this, she had developed a personality where she was happy and angry.
Zhou Madam could tell that Du Ruoqing did not like or even hated Huo Niannian because Huo Niannian had made her suffer a lot.
Zhou Madam asked, "Do you know your mistake?"
Seeing that her aunt was finally willing to pay attention to her, Du Ruoqing quickly nodded her head, "I know my mistake. Aunt, please forgive me this time."
Du Ruoqing lowered her head, her eyes were red. When she was not harsh and mean, her appearance was really pitiful.
Zhou Madam could no longer be heartless and her attitude softened a lot, "It's good that you know that you are in the wrong. In the future, don't be as rash as today when you are living in the world."
Du Ruoqing acknowledged and her voice was very muffled. It was obvious that she was unhappy.
"Alright, pack up and prepare to eat. I will get someone to send you back later."
Du Ruoqing clenched her hands again. What she wanted was not a few words of comfort that did not hurt or itch. She wanted her aunt to clearly tell her that she would not cooperate with Huo Niannian!
"Aunt, will you agree to Huo Niannian?"
She finally asked this question.
As soon as she finished speaking, the living room returned to silence once again. The smile on Zhou Madam's face gradually disappeared and her lips gradually formed a straight line.
"You don't have to worry about this matter."
"How can I not care!? Huo Niannian and I have never been on good terms. You don't even know what she usually does to me. She relied on Gu Tingshen and Old Master Gu to support her and never put me in her eyes. She always goes against me..."
Du Ruoqing tried her best to control her emotions, but as she spoke, her voice became louder and louder, and her emotions became more and more agitated. In the end, she still lost control.1
"Gu Zifan doesn't have much status in the Gu family to begin with. In the past few days, he was robbed of his only shares by Gu Tingshen. How can the Gu family still have Gu Zifan and me? Aunt, did you know that all of this was caused by Huo Niannian? If it wasn't for her, how could I have fallen to this state!?"
Du Ruoqing's tears could not help but flow out. She held Zhou Madam's hand and cried out loud. It was so pitiful.
As for whether her words were true or false, it was not important. What was important was to make her aunt believe her and hate Huo Niannian.
She wanted Huo Niannian's wishful thinking to fail and let Huo Niannian lose to her!
