Zhang Guoqing quietly tugged at his mother-in-law's sleeve, and the two of them quietly retreated outside. Once they reached the kitchen, they sat opposite each other in silence. At this moment, neither of them knew what to say, so they just sat there quietly. The situation came so suddenly, without any buffer, confronting them head-on.
Zhang Guoqing had imagined many scenarios, but he hadn't expected such a heartbreaking one. He now understood why Old Sir Zhou treated them father and daughter this way. First, he wasn't their biological father, and second, although they were said to be cousins, having lived in the shadow of such an outstanding cousin, his personality would definitely make him both envious and jealous. He might even blame the downfall of the Zhou Family on Zhou Jinyu. Probably, Gu Mingzhu left a lot behind back then, and seeing that his more talented cousin had passed away, he decided to return to his hometown and live a steady life.
