Chapter 360 - Little Auntie’s Apology (2)

Translator: ShinoJ

Zhao Manshi’s driving skills were truly terrifying. She had been driving crazily along the way and had been scolded several times by male drivers who were passing by, “Do you know how to drive?”.

Zhao Manshi was born with the fiery temper of a young lady. Where did you come from to scold me for my driving skills? She opened the car window and scolded back mercilessly!

Gu Chu’s small face was pale. She really wanted to snatch her aunt’s steering wheel — Let go of that steering wheel. I’ll drive!

In her previous life, she had flown planes, climbed on tanks, and raced cars. Driving a car was a piece of cake for her!

Fortunately, after leaving the capital, there were fewer cars in the surroundings. Cold snow vapor seeped through the gaps in the car window. It was cold.

Gu Chu secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It was better not to get into her aunt’s car in the future. She still wanted to live until she was twenty years old with all her limbs intact. She still wanted to seek revenge from Old Mo and Shen Si.

Just as she was thinking about this, Gu Chu heard Zhao Manshi’s phone ring.

“Smiling within this broken world–“

Gu Chu could tell that Zhao Manshi’s phone music was an ancient piece of music. This piece of music was an interlude to a game advertisement that Gu Manxi had shot in the past.

Zhao Manshi was busy driving. She casually picked up the phone with the Bluetooth in the car. Zhao Manshi called out sweetly, “Mommy, I’m still driving. The meeting in the afternoon has been canceled, right?”

Her mother, Tang Chunxiu, scolded her through the speakers, her voice echoed through the small car. “Manshi! Do you know how busy President Lu is usually? President Lu is young and promising. Last year, he even danced with you at the banquet. Everyone can see his feelings for you –”

“Mom, I’m not even twenty yet. I don’t want to get married.” Zhao Manshi was quite helpless./

Ever since she became an adult, her mother had been busy arranging blind dates for her.

Her mother had written down all the famous families in the capital in her little notebook, going through them one by one to find a suitable match.

But Zhao Manshi didn’t want to get married at all!

She was at the age where she loved to play. Her biggest wish now was to accompany her sister to film more and go shopping with her sister to buy clothes. She didn’t want to get married this early!

“If you don’t want to get married, you can at least get engaged first,” Tang Chunxiu said, “It’s not a big deal to get engaged first. You’ve been running around outside all day and hanging out with that b*tch Gu Manxi. Don’t let her lead you astray. I don’t want you hooking up with a wild man at such a young age and give birth to a b*stard –”

Zhao Manshi caught a glimpse of Gu Chu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, she hurriedly interrupted her mother. “Mom! Manxi is your daughter. How can you say that about her? Mom, Sister Manxi is really a good person. As long as you get to know her better, you will definitely be proud of her.”

Tang Chunxiu snorted coldly, “You are my only child.”

Zhao Manshi was speechless. Her mother had said something in anger again.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Gu Chu was right beside her. Zhao Manshi was afraid that her mother would say something sarcastic and mean to hurt Gu Chu’s heart. Zhao Manshi answered perfunctorily and quickly hung up the phone.

Zhao Manshi turned the steering wheel and cautiously told Gu Chu, “Chuchu, your grandmother is old and has some menopause problems. You must not take her words to heart.”

Gu Chu’s small face was innocent as she nodded her head. “Yes, I know.”

In her heart, Gu Chu was recalling Tang Chunxiu’s words — “You are my only child.”

What a strange way of saying it.

Tang Chunxiu could have said “I only have you as my daughter.” Why did she use the phrase “only child”?

Tang Chunxiu had three children: her eldest son, Zhao Yan, her second daughter, Gu Manxi, and her youngest daughter, Zhao Manshi. From what Tang Chunxiu said, could it be that the only child she approved of in her heart was Zhao Manshi?

Or... was there a hidden meaning in her words?
