Uncle Gu looked at Ning Wanru, and for a moment, he couldn't distinguish which of her words were true and which were false.
It was a moment later that he simply spoke, "Second Lady, remember your place and remember the words of the Old Patriarch, please go back."
Since he couldn't discern the truth from the lies, he might as well not talk at all.
A clean and quick dismissal was the real solution.
Ning Wanru sighed softly, her eyes brimming with moisture, "If you won't look, then don't look. The Old Patriarch has shown me kindness as heavy as a mountain, I just hope I can die before him, so I won't have to feel sad or heartbroken..."
Qiaoqiao thought to herself, you will certainly die before Gu Qingfeng, rest assured!
Uncle Gu was not a man gifted with words, and Qiaoqiao had no wish to speak to this old lady either.
Thus, the scene turned into one where Ning Wanru was talking to herself.
However, she had achieved her objective for the day.
