Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path-Chapter 744: Heard It

"Why are you back so soon?" Zheng Xiangjun asked, voicing the family’s doubts.

"Old Mrs. Xu was tired, so we came back," Wang Shuyun said. After speaking, she didn’t even glance at Yang Aiguo, who had come out of Wang Fangyi’s study at the sound of her voice. "I’m tired too, I’m going to rest first."

After saying this, she hurried upstairs without waiting for Zheng Xiangjun to ask anything.

Her footsteps paused as she passed by Yang Aiguo, but in the end, she said nothing, just bowed her head and went upstairs.

Yang Aiguo watched her back without saying a word and quietly followed her up.

Zheng Xiangjun wanted to say something, but ultimately just sighed and shook her head.

"Lingling, come on, let’s go make dumplings with Grandma." With that, she went into the kitchen first.

Gu Lingling knew she wanted to ask about what had happened earlier, and she also had many things she wanted to ask Zheng Xiangjun, so she followed her into the kitchen.

"Where is that old woman staying now?" Sure enough, as soon as she entered, she saw Zheng Xiangjun asking.

"At the military district guesthouse," Gu Lingling answered.

"Oh?" Zheng Xiangjun, who had been picking vegetables, looked somewhat surprised at Gu Lingling. "She’s actually staying at a guesthouse?"

"She originally wanted to stay on the east side," Gu Lingling said with a faint smile.

"Hmph..." Zheng Xiangjun let out a cold laugh. "That’s all she’s capable of."

Yet, she has managed to make that silly girl of hers revolve around her, living as if she were a widow for all these years.

In the past, Zheng Xiangjun had scolded, yelled, even hit her, but who knows what kind of potion Old Mrs. Xu gave her. No matter what, Wang Shuyun just wouldn’t listen, nothing worked.

Eventually, it turned out like this.

"However..." Zheng Xiangjun lovingly looked at Gu Lingling, "You did a great job today, my girl."

No wonder her stubborn daughter came back so quickly.

"Grandma, I just think my mom is too pitiful." So pitiful it makes one’s heart ache.

But there’s an old saying, ’those who are pitiful often have something hateful about them,’ which perfectly describes Wang Shuyun, who could have lived well and happily but insists on making her life unbearable.

But Gu Lingling still feels sorry for her; she just can’t stand others bullying Wang Shuyun.

Protective?

Of course! Who told Wang Shuyun to be good to her? Who made her feel maternal love?

That’s right, Gu Lingling, for two lifetimes, has lacked maternal love!

It’s a feeling she has never had in two lifetimes.

So, how could she not be protective?

"Good child." Zheng Xiangjun earnestly said, "Your mom having such a daughter-in-law is her blessing, and it’s the fate between you mother and daughter."

That daughter of hers really is a fool with a fool’s luck!

Upstairs, Wang Shuyun silently bowed her head and went upstairs. Just as the door was about to close, it was suddenly blocked by a large hand.

Wang Shuyun looked up to see Yang Aiguo standing at the door with a stern face.

He just stood there, fixated, looking at Wang Shuyun.

Wang Shuyun averted her eyes, "Why...did you come up?"

"I came to check on you." Yang Aiguo said, looking steadily at her, "Are you alright?"

He asked somewhat indecisively.

"I’m fine," Wang Shuyun replied with a self-deprecating smile, pretending to be carefree, "What’s wrong with me? You’re quite strange! I just want to be quiet, can I?"

"Hmm, I was overthinking." Yang Aiguo nodded, "But in the future, don’t secretly cry like before anymore, if there’s anything...we can actually handle it together."

"Who cried?" Wang Shuyun glared at him, "You must have seen it wrong."

"By the way, don’t you have something to do at the army? Go quickly."

With that, she closed the door with a snap.

Outside the door, Yang Aiguo shook his head helplessly and said softly, "I saw it."
