Madam Gu's birthday banquet was disrupted by a bolt from the blue.
Her eighty years of life had seen many storms, yet the sudden upheaval in front of her was still hard to accept. She tried to calm herself down.
As the anchor of the Gu family, she could not panic or be chaotic; she needed to stabilize the situation.
Madam Gu's cloudy yet steady eyes fixed on Gu Bichen: "Bichen, I want to hear what you have to say now?"
She understood An'an and Lin Hui's words. Yu Ruohuan and Yao Huia had grasped Gu Bichen's secret parentage, which led to their demise.
This meant that Gu Bichen had long known he was not the biological son of Na Amo and Gu Chengzhao, and to keep his secret, he would rather have his hands stained with blood, embarking on a path of crime.
She couldn't believe the child she had watched grow and nurtured would do such a thing; no matter what others said, she only wanted to hear it from Bichen himself.
