After saying her piece, Chen Fengjiao flung Gu'er's hand away, covered her face, and ran crying into the bedroom.
Gu'er sat silently on the sofa, her expression grim.
This only made Liu Fang feel more relieved.
"Should... should I go try and talk to her?"
Liu Fang asked Gu'er, testing the waters.
"There's no need. You should just worry about yourself. My dad told me to be a little nicer to you, so my hands are tied. The truth is, I don't welcome you here."
Gu'er said coolly.
"I know. But if I had any other choice, I wouldn't be doing this. Gu'er, please, rest assured. I don't want anything. I... In the future, I'll be good to all of you. I can help you watch the child."
Liu Fang hastily declared.
"Heh, thanks for the kind offer, but I don't need it."
Gu'er was cold toward Liu Fang.
"I know you don't like me. But time reveals a person's true character. You'll eventually see the kind of person I am."
