Chapter 274 - 271: Cinderella’s Turnaround 16 (Bonus - for September Monthly Tickets)
Anning’s family found a hotel to stay in.
Mrs. Gu was worried about Anning staying in a room by herself, so she shared a room with Anning and let Mr. Gu have his own room.
When it was time to lie in bed after freshing up, Mrs. Gu couldn’t sleep at all.
She began talking to Anning.
"Ningning, the things you said today were so satisfying. For so many years, your grandma has always looked down on you and me. I can’t count how many times I’ve put up with her attitude. I initially thought since she is your father’s mother, I should endure it for his sake. I never thought that today my daughter would stand up for me."
Mrs. Gu was genuinely pleased.
After years of suppressed frustration, a part of it was finally released, and Mrs. Gu excitedly talked non-stop.
"Ningning, no matter how much your grandma looks down on you, you’re still more outstanding than Ankang. Gu Ankang is spoiled by your Uncle Gu and his family. He’s failing in his studies, and he’s useless at work. Despite the fact that our family isn’t that well off, he lives in luxury as if he’s some Eldest Young Master. If this goes on, they will be the ones to suffer in the future."
Anning listened with a smile as Mrs. Gu vented, "Mom, it doesn’t matter if Grandma is good to you or not. As long as Dad and I treat you well, that’s enough. We’ve bought a new house now, and in a while, you and dad will refurbish your shop and open for business. By then, customers will flood in like water, think about how much money we will make. Also, I’ll study hard, so in the future, you and Dad can be proud of me, and others will respect you when they mention your names, okay?"
Mrs. Gu, thinking about that beautiful life, nearly laughed out loud with joy, "Alright, I’m looking forward to living the good life with you. I’ll definitely have a talk with Grandma and ask her where on earth my Ningning falls short."
The mother and daughter talked a lot throughout the night, and Mrs. Gu eventually fell asleep from exhaustion.
Mr. Gu in the next room couldn’t sleep either.
