Chapter 214
“Exactly! And there are so many types of jade which are hard to find . The boss of the Jade Beauty Jewelry must be wealthy and has a rich source of jade,” Mrs . Lu added .
They loved jade, and naturally knew the source of jade . Jade was from stone gambling . Stone gambling was much harder than normal forms of gambling . 99% of the time people could fail .
Only 1% could win . Professional skills and knowledge were reliable, but they only slightly raised the possibility to win .
“Why don’t we go to City G together?” Mrs . Hao proposed .
“Good idea! I’ll book the plane tickets right now, and we’re leaving this afternoon!” Mrs . Lu was also excited .
Mrs . Hao and Mrs . Lu were so efficient, and Gu Ning was happy that she had successfully promoted her brand .
City G wasn’t far away from City F and it only took an hour to fly there .
Hao Ran, who was already used to his mother’s behavior, stayed silent .
After the meal, since Mrs . Hao and Mrs . Lu were leaving for City G, they dispersed .
Hao Ran asked Gu Ning whether she wanted to go back to school with him . Gu Ning declined because she had already asked for a leave, and would go to school tomorrow .
…
The minute that Lin Lijuan got home she told her mother-in-law about what had happened today . The old lady was shocked that Gu Qing and Gu Man were suddenly rich and had even acquired a beauty salon .
“How can they do that! They’re rich now, and disappear right away . They should respect and think about me!” the old lady said, as if she was the one who had always been treated unfairly .
She even took it for granted that Gu Qing’s and Gu Man’s money belonged to her .
The old lady didn’t care about her daughters’ life, but only wanted them to pay her back because she had brought them up . All in all, the old lady hated Gu Qing and Gu Man, and didn’t want them to live a better life than her .
Lin Lijuan had an evil idea all of a sudden . “Mom, Gu Man is still unmarried according to the law, and she is still your daughter . Her money should be yours too . ”
Although Gu Man’s money was barely comparable to Gu Qinxiang’s wealth, Lin Lijuan merely wanted to prevent Gu Qing and Gu Man from living a good life . Especially Gu Man, Lin Lijuan hated her to death because of what Gu Ning had done to Gu Xiaoxiao .
The old lady immediately called Gu Man, but Gu Man wouldn’t answer . Undoubtedly, the old lady was calling her for nothing good .
Gu Man wouldn’t answer her call, and the old lady was furious . She called Gu Qing, but it was still the same .
The old lady was in a rage now . “They both won’t answer my call! They totally forget that I am their mother! Where is the beauty salon? I’ll go and find them in person!”
Lin Lijuan didn’t stop her, and told her mother-in-law the address . The old lady left the house right away .
Gu Ning was free today, so she went back to the beauty salon along with Gu Qing and Gu Man .
In fact, Gu Ning was worried that her grandmother would cause them trouble again, because the old lady had just called Gu Qing and Gu Man . If the old lady came to them right now, Gu Ning was afraid that Gu Qing and Gu Man wouldn’t be able to handle the situation .
Gu Ning was right . Only half an hour after they were back in the beauty salon, the old lady arrived . And the minute she walked in, the old lady shouted, “Gu Qing, Gu Man, come out now!”
Her shout attracted a lot of attention from people around her . Everyone instantly knew that she must be a troublemaker .
“May I ask your name? Why do you want to meet our bosses?” The receptionist immediately walked over to comfort her, in case the old lady ran amok .
However, the old lady was shameless and didn’t care about her face at all . She stood at the door swearing loudly, “Gu Qing, Gu Man, you’re so unfilial! You’re rich now, and you forget about your mother! You’re sh*ts!”
Within seconds, many people gathered around, and those who didn’t know the truth all blamed the so-called unfilial daughters . However, the staff in the beauty salon all believed that Gu Qing and Gu Man wouldn’t do such a thing .
Gu Ning, Gu Qing and Gu Man were sitting in a nearby office room . They heard it clearly, walking out at once .
Seeing her grandmother, Gu Ning was extremely displeased . Gu Qing and Gu Man were also unhappy . Their mother meant nothing to them now .
Before they came out, Gu Ning told Gu Qing as well as Gu Man to stay quiet, and let her solve this problem .
“What did you just say?” Gu Ning said coldly . She didn’t have any respect towards her grandmother because her grandmother didn’t deserve it at all .
“Isn’t it true? You became rich and suddenly disappeared . You quit your job, moved to another place, and won’t even answer my calls! If my eldest son’s wife hadn’t encountered you here, I would probably still have no idea that you’re rich enough to run a salon now!” the old lady said angrily .
“Really? They disappeared once they became rich?”
“They abandoned their mother!”
…
Some criticized Gu Qing and Gu Man .
“Shut your mouth!” Gu Ning snapped . Her cold glance made the crowd fall silent . Everyone was frightened by her coldness .
Gu Ning said icily, “Do you know the real reason behind it? If you don’t, then shut up . Don’t think you stand by the side of fairness after you only hear her accusation . If you were us, I don’t believe that you can still blame us . ”
Everyone immediately knew that the thing wasn’t as simple as the old lady said . Some felt embarrassed and no one said another word .
“I think you must still remember why we moved out . It was you who forced us to leave! Your lovely granddaughter scared my mother with a photo of me and my schoolmates playing together . My mother thought I was beaten by them and fell down the stairs . My mother had to stay in the hospital for a week . Did you ever come and visit her? And you have even sworn at my mother and me in public . Why should we still have to answer your calls?” Gu Ning sneered . In her eyes, the old lady was just a shameless loser .
