Chapter 100 Do you think I'm easy to fool?
A smile played on Gu Yanli's lips. "What? What happened?"
"You're my son, do you think I don't know your temperament? Don't play dumb with me!"
Madam Lan looked at him and said in a low voice, "I heard that Chengjing went to cause trouble for Yiyi again. Did you have a fight with her because of this?"
"You don't need to worry about this matter."
"What do you mean I'm not going to get involved in this? You're my son, and Yiyi is my daughter-in-law. I can tell at a glance that Yiyi has no feelings for Chengjing. Don't tell me you can't see it!"
As Madam Lan spoke, Su Yiran came out after changing her clothes. She lowered her voice, gave Gu Yanli a warning look, and then went over to take her hand and go downstairs.
"Today, I had the kitchen prepare all your favorite dishes, including..."
……
So much has happened these past two days that Su Yiran has been feeling completely out of sorts, spending all her time at home and not even going to the art gallery.
However, with the art exhibition just around the corner, Su Yiran had to keep an eye on the progress.
Su Yiran learned about the Liu family's property being seized from Meng Ran.
It was the day after she met her father.
Gu Yanli kept his word.
Apart from Liu Jiaojiao, the entire Liu family was arrested.
Su Yiran received a phone call from Chen Lie.
They said the Liu family wanted to see her.
Su Yiran agreed.
She had wanted to confront them and get to the bottom of things for a long time, but Gu Yanli was worried that she was emotionally unstable and hadn't let her go.
To Su Yiran's surprise, she actually saw Gu Yanli in the detention center.
"Why are you here?"
"Wait for you."
Gu Yanli walked towards her, took her hand tightly, and enveloped her in the warmth of his palm. "Why are your hands so cold? Why aren't you wearing more clothes when you go out?"
Su Yiran met his gaze and put her hands in his arms, where they were warmer than her hands.
"I'm not cold anymore."
After Gu Yanli reminded her last time, she vaguely remembered some things from the past, but she was still young at the time and didn't remember much. She only knew that there was someone who often played with her and that her parents were very polite to him. She couldn't remember anything else.
She had always thought the necklace was a gift from her father, never expecting it to be related to Gu Yanli.
She doesn't remember things from her childhood, but Gu Yanli remembers her embarrassing moments from the past.
He always liked to say things in front of her, and she couldn't refute them.
The man smiled and gently stroked her head. "Call me if you need anything. I'll be right outside."
"it is good."
Gu Yanli looked at her and watched her walk into the visiting room.
When Su Yiran saw Liu's mother, she had a lot of white hair and her face was full of vicissitudes, indicating that life here was not easy.
"Indeed..."
Liu's mother looked at her and said, "Thank you for still being willing to come see me."
Su Yiran looked at her and sat down opposite her.
"I've always been curious, since you got what you wanted, why did you bring me to the Liu family? Didn't you ever expect things to turn out this way?"
"I can't be cruel."
"..."
Su Yiran frowned.
As she spoke, Liu's mother laughed and said, "Isn't it ridiculous? Do you think that we've done so many bad things that we would still say such things against our conscience?"
“After everything was over and we got our things back, you were just a burden. He didn’t want to bring you to the Liu family, but I’m a mother too, and I couldn’t bear it, so I insisted on bringing you to the Liu family.”
As Liu's mother spoke, her gaze fell on the necklace around her neck, and she suddenly smiled, "Do you know why I insisted on marrying you off to Gu Chengjing instead of facilitating the marriage between my own daughter Liu Jiaojiao and the Gu family?"
Su Yiran looked at her without saying a word.
Liu's mother pointed to the necklace around her neck, "I never thought that after going around in circles, I would still end up back here with you."
Following the other woman's gaze, Su Yiran touched the necklace around her neck. Considering her attitude, she realized, "So you deliberately gave this necklace away?"
"When I first saw the words on it, I knew this necklace was special. It wasn't until Elder Gu came to my door that I realized who the two words on it referred to."
“There are many people in the world with the same name, how can you be so sure that those two words refer to…”
"I dare not gamble, and I can't afford to gamble!"
Looking at her, Liu's mother said, "This necklace is very valuable. Although I don't know how you got it, this necklace absolutely cannot remain in the Liu family."
Do you think I'm easy to fool?
Su Yiran clearly didn't believe her explanation. "Once the necklace is exposed, the chances of Gu Yanli discovering it are much greater than if it were kept at the Liu family's place."
"That's why I initially tried every means to facilitate your marriage with Chengjing. As long as you become Mr. Gu's niece-in-law, even if he has feelings for you, he would never disregard his status and do something unethical."
As she spoke, Liu's mother sighed, "I just don't know what happened. There shouldn't be any connection between Jiaojiao and Chengjing, but they... Jiaojiao is my biological daughter. She caused such a scene at the Gu family that day, I can't ignore her reputation..."
Later, when I found out, I tried every means to introduce Yan Lianhe to me. Although the Yan family wasn't as prominent as the Gu family, they were still quite respectable, but I still miscalculated.
Su Yiran raised her eyes and looked at the woman in front of her.
She had called her "Mom" for over ten years, after all.
"You called me here today just to say these things?"
"No, Yiran."
Suddenly, Liu's mother grabbed Su Yiran's hand. "Over the years, I have long regarded you as my second daughter. I know that my Liu family has done many things to wrong you, and I also know that you and Jiaojiao have never gotten along. But that was all our fault. Jiaojiao was unaware of the situation. I beg you, Mr. Gu, to let Jiaojiao go. She is innocent. She has nothing to do with what happened back then."
Su Yiran listened to the other person's words, twitched the corner of her mouth, and withdrew her hand.
Sure enough, whether in the past or now, whenever she comes to her, it's always for Liu Jiaojiao.
That's true, after all, they are not related by blood.
Su Yiran took a deep breath. "Where is my mother now?"
Liu's mother shook her head. "I don't know. After she ran away from the plastic surgery hospital, we sent people to look for her, but we couldn't find anything."
"Is this all the sincerity you've shown in protecting Liu Jiaojiao?"
Su Yiran clearly didn't believe it.
"I really do not know."
Liu's mother tried to take Su Yiran's hand, but she avoided it. "Perhaps no news is good news... Jiaojiao is innocent. Please, I'm begging you, Yiran, I'm begging you."
"You're not my mom!"
"Yes, I am not your mother, but you have been in the Liu family for so many years. Although we can't say we treated you very well, we have provided you with everything you need, including food, clothing, and shelter. At least for you, our Liu family has not wronged you in any way."
"So, according to you, I should thank you, is that right?"
Su Yiran had never seen such a shameless person.
