"Brother, I'm sorry..."
As she walked out the door, Gu Xinran apologised to Gu Heng with a somewhat dejected tone...
Now an adult, she understood just how status-conscious her parents were, able to declare their superiority and demean others with great ease, even more so than Gu Jiandang, her dad's brother...
But Gu Heng tonight only targeted their uncle, not her parents, and she knew Gu Heng was being considerate of her feelings...
Gu Heng was opening the trunk, taking out the items one by one while listening to Gu Xinran's words and couldn't help but pat her on the head, saying, "The issues of our parents' generation shouldn't affect us, no matter how the two families are fighting. You're still my sister, don't think too much."
"Mmm!"
Moved by Gu Heng's words, Gu Xinran nodded her head.
Before she could feel moved for long, Gu Heng's voice rang out again, "Now that you know, hurry up and help. Move all these things in!"
"Oh, oh!"
