"Grandmother, why are you..."
"Smack..."
"Grandmother?"
Before Mr. Chu could even finish speaking, Mrs. Chu slapped him across his face. He stood there stunned, hand touching the sting on his cheek.
Not only was Mr. Chu stunned, so was Chu Anran.
"Anran, I've wronged you over these years."
"Grandma, don't say that."
"If it weren't for Miss Xiangrong telling me what happened to you, I wouldn't even know the things your aunt and cousin did. Anran, I'm sorry for letting you suffer."
An Xiangrong, who had already assisted Mrs. Chu to Chu Anran's side, released her hand when she heard these words.
Chu Anran's face was full of complicated emotions. Perhaps due to guilt, or perhaps for other reasons, Mrs. Chu has always favored her daughter and grandson, while neglecting her own granddaughter, Chu Anran.
Because of this, even though Chu Anran knew of Mr. Chu's true colors, she never really did anything about it, instead giving Mr. Chu numerous chances to frame her.
