Eager to Protect Her Husband

Gu Qingcheng frowned when she saw Gu Tianhao attempting to manipulate Huo Sicheng.

Even though Huo Sicheng was capable of countering Gu Tianhao, he chose to remain silent.

She was determined not to let Gu Tianhao bully her husband.

"What you said seems reasonable, but I disagree," she said, addressing Gu Tianhao. "After my husband's parents passed away, indeed, Cousin helped him and elevated the Huo Family to its current stature. Si Cheng is deeply grateful for that. However, he had only one father, and no one can replace him."

"You refer to him as 'cousin,' yet you assume a father's role. What then do you make of my father-in-law?" she challenged Gu Tianhao. "Today marks the anniversary of his death. Regardless of your rudeness, you ought to show the basic courtesy and respect due in the presence of the deceased."

Gu Tianhao's expression changed upon hearing Gu Qingcheng's words.
