Chapter 269: Chapter 269 Does His Dad Know? (1)

"She’s sick? Why haven’t I heard her say that herself?" Gu’s mother seemed utterly shocked, unable to believe it.

It sounded from the other party that the situation was quite serious.

Su Yixia hesitated, then said, "She—Gu Nuan, always worries about her family worrying about her, Aunt, you know that, don’t you?"

Gu’s mother knew her daughter’s temperament well, a temperament that had developed from who knows when, disliking conversation and always keeping everything to herself.

Thinking of her daughter’s kind heart, certainly worrying about her family, a big lump formed in Gu’s mother’s heart, and she no longer doubted Su Yixia’s words but asked anxiously, "So how is she now? Where is she being treated? What’s the illness?"

"Aunt, don’t blame me for not telling you. I see her suffering in sickness, and as a friend, I really can’t bear to watch her like this. There’s a saying—empathy," Su Yixia explained.

"I understand, you say, where is she?"

"Of course, she is getting treatment here. Aunt, you should at least come over here and see her, shouldn’t you?"

The other party spoke ambiguously, but Gu’s mother did not doubt him because of the reasons mentioned earlier. She repeatedly said, "Okay, okay, I’ll go there. Can I call you on this number?"

"Yes, Aunt, you come here first. Don’t worry, as her best friend, I will definitely arrange everything here for you."

"Thank you so much, by the way, you said your last name was?"

"I’m Su, Aunt."

She hung up the phone.

Su Yide, who had been watching his sister make this call, put up a thumb when she finished: "You’re strong, inventing such a lie."

"I’m not as good as her. Who knows how she can speak, managing to completely bewitch men," Su Yixia said coldly with a sarcastically curled lip, "Besides, seeing is believing; there’s no evidence more convincing than seeing with one’s own eyes. Once we bring her mother here, every problem will resolve itself. The Xiao Family would never be foolish enough to marry into a family like hers."

Su Yide agreed repeatedly, "The Xiao Family is not foolish. Besides, Xiao Jianming, it’s said that he initially became successful through his wife’s fortune, a penniless nobody until he married into money which funded his start-up, without which he wouldn’t have achieved his success. He himself should know this better than anyone."

"Hmm—" Su Yixia had never met Xiao Jianming, so it was hard to say, but she knew that the Xiao sisters rumored that their grandmother, like Wa Zicong’s mother, Aunt Liu, was of a certain breed.

Gu Nuan probably never even considered this.

Thinking of rising to the top? Doesn’t she weigh her own abilities?

Inside the Gu Family home.

After receiving such a call, Gu’s mother was naturally anxious.

In contrast, Gu’s father always maintained skepticism: "You said she’s Nuannuan’s classmate? Can you be sure? There are many scam calls these days, plenty of frauds claiming to be classmates."

Gu’s mother explained, "She said her last name was Su. Nuannuan had brought someone home before and mentioned having a classmate named Su. Besides, she didn’t ask for my bank account, she didn’t ask me to transfer money."

"But, she asked you to go there, right? What if when you go there, they capture you and ask for a ransom?"

Hearing this, Gu’s mother nearly died of laughter, "Do you think we are the richest family? Do we have treasures of gold and silver? Why would they kidnap me, a penniless old woman?"
