Spending the Villain's Money to Extend My Life

Chapter 317 – One Hundred And Ten Invitations.... What the heck? (3)

“The most important thing right now is Wushuang’s surgery. Never mind about anything else. Let’s put those aside for the time being.”

Zhang Wen wiped her tears.

“I know it’s not fair to Shishi but... I really can’t just let Wushuang, the daughter that I have raised for over 20 years, die like this.

“If Wushuang had returned to her parents and we stopped caring for her, how’d she live giving her health condition? Every time I think of that, my heart aches so much that I can’t breathe.

“Jiangxin, it is all my fault. As a mother, I have limited energy and that’s why I had overlooked Shishi... and let you be blamed for not caring for your daughter.”

Having said that, she started crying.

Had Gu Shishi witnessed that right now, she would probably have been stunned speechless.

Gu Wushuang wasn’t born with that talent; she picked it all up from Zheng Wen, her mother.

Under Zhang Wen’s influence, Gu Wushuang had picked up most of her skill if not exceeding her.

All in all, what did it mean not enough energy to care for her real daughter?

Did that mean all families with two children should throw away the second one?

Zhang Wen’s irrational reasoning, along with her crying, was, however, sufficient enough to fool Gu Jiangxin. He didn’t think there was anything wrong with that logic.

A little white flower plus a stubborn and conceited one.

And, just like that, the one who felt that she was being other than loving and another caring about nothing other than his own gains, became the perfect match for each other.

Gu Jiangxin gave his wife a hug.

“Stop crying now. We are all dealt our own hands in life.

“There is not much we can do about it.

“Besides, now that Shishi can marry into the Huo, the rest of her life is set. In any case, it is better than staying with her adopted parents. Anyway you look at it, she is already luckier than Wushuang. She is healthy and will not be disliked by her husband’s family.”

Zhang Wen nodded and a smile appeared on her through her tears.

“You are right. We won’t go on the day of. We will just send her a message on WeChat wishing her her happiness in the future and to have a child with Young Master Huo soon.”

The chauvinistic chauvinistic Gu Jiangxin’s face dropped immediately. “You can send it if you want to. No way I will send something like that.”

“Daddy. Mommy.”

As they were talking, someone knocked on their room door.

Gu Wushuang, whose eyes were also reddened, walked inside.

“You two should go to Sister Shishi’s wedding. Brother Cheng will accompany me to my surgery. Besides, the surgery might not take place on the same day... ... even if it does, perhaps, I will still be around when you two return... ...”

Once again, tears started streaming down Zhang Wen’s face.

She stood up and threw her arms around Gu Wushuang.

“What are you talking about, my darling? Of course we will go with you!

“We will be there for you on the day of. You must recover and come home with us!

“After we all get back, we will go visit your Sister Shishi at the Huo’s together.

“Your sister will understand why we won’t be at her wedding.”*

With tears in her eyes, Gu Wushuang said, “Ma....”

The mother and daughter held onto each other and bawled.

Gu Jiangxin sighed as he looked at the two of them.

Gu Shishi had no idea about this “touching” scene that was taking place over at the Gu’s.

In fact, to be perfectly honest, she had almost forgotten about the fact that she needed to inform her parents that she would be getting married.

It had only been a few days since she had returned from the Jiang’s to the Gu’s before the Gu’s had pushed her off onto Huo Sishen.

And, ever since she had transmigrated, Gu Shishi had only met up with her birth parents once or twice and she could count every sentence that they had exchanged with one hand.

They were practically strangers.

And, having strangers at your wedding was odd, right?

Gu Shishi had almost forgotten about them completely.

She finally recalled when she received another text from her adoptive mother.
