Chapter 1463: How Is It? Still No News?

~4 min read 699 words

Guo Yueliang was also a foodie: "Xiao Wan, your cooking is quite good. Next time you have a chance, come to my place; I'll make my signature dishes for you."

The two chatted more and more compatibly, until finally Guo Yueliang declared: "I've made a friend of you."

Fu Yanwan hadn't expected that visiting Fourth Sister-in-law would lead her to find a kindred spirit.

The three women chatted until very late, and only then did Fu Yanwan bring Guo Yueliang to the room she had lived in before: "Sister Liang, by the way, where are you going on business this time?"

Guo Yueliang draped her coat over the cabinet: "First to Suzhou, then to Shanghai."

Hearing "Shanghai," Fu Yanwan perked up: "You're really going to Shanghai?"

Guo Yueliang nodded: "Yes. Seeing you so excited, is there something specific?"

Since they had chatted so happily tonight anyway, she felt no shame: "Sister Liang, do you have time to visit the department store when you're in Shanghai?"

Guo Yueliang understood immediately: "You want me to bring something back?"

Fu Yanwan nodded like a chick pecking rice: "Yes, yes, yes..."

If her own Fourth Sister-in-law hadn't already retired to sleep, she would have gone right now to fetch those few bolts of cloth to show Guo Yueliang the patterns: "Tomorrow I'll let you see the patterns of those few bolts of cloth; if you have time, please trouble yourself to bring some back."

Hearing this, Guo Yueliang patted her chest and promised: "Rest assured, I'll take care of this matter; your Fourth Sister-in-law's unborn child is my godson or goddaughter."

She was having a wonderful time chatting here, unaware that the Guo household had already fallen into chaos: "Hu Yue Mei, what do you think you're doing?"

Since marrying into the family, this man had never been so furious: "Fengze, I have no other intention; I was just afraid that poor Yueliang would be heartbroken, so I thought of introducing her to someone, hoping she could quickly forget the previous unhappiness."

Guo Fengze's expression was very ugly: "You aunt and niece are truly something, thinking my Guo Fengze's daughter is so easy to bully?"

This terrified Hu Yue Mei: "Fengze, things aren't as you think; I only learned about this matter afterward. I..."

Guo Fengze directly cut off what she was about to say next: "Enough. No matter what you say, it won't change the immorality your niece has committed."

Let me put it this way: if my daughter is fine, we can discuss everything; but if my daughter suffers even the slightest mishap, you know my nature."

Hearing this, Hu Yue Mei's heart gave a jolt: "Fengze, I..."

Guo Fengze raised his hand to stop her from saying more: "Take your niece and wait at the main gate. You won't rest until my daughter returns."

Hu Yue Mei hadn't expected that the man who had always been so considerate toward her would actually make her wait at the main gate; if Guo Yueliang didn't return all night, did he expect her to stand guard there with Hu Jingxiu all night?

She regretted helping her niece scheme against Gu Minglei, and she had overestimated her own position in Guo Fengze's heart.

She was gambling; was Guo Yueliang not also gambling?

At this moment, Guo Yueliang was also thinking: I wonder what Father will do when he returns from his business trip and learns the full story?

Will he protect his stepmother and urge me to let the matter drop, or will he stand on my side and seek justice for me?

The reason I came to Liu Chuxue's place was naturally because I received news that my father, who is usually as busy as a top spinning all day, would return from his business trip today.

Even if my stepmother didn't mention it, someone else would surely bring it up to him.

And at this moment, Guo Fengze's eyes were filled with anxiety: "How is it? Still no news?"

The voice on the other end of the phone carried guilt: "We have asked all the classmates, colleagues, and friends who are close to Young Lady; they all said she wasn't with them."
