My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce

Chapter 803: Chapter 803: Another Granddaughter

But Lu Yanxi, as beautiful as she was, wasn’t Gu Jing’s type.

Gu Jing was fond of the type like Qiao Yin.

Her beauty was breathtaking yet completely non-aggressive, without a trace of sharp edges. She was gentle and quiet, cool but with a hint of vulnerability, and that vulnerability carried a hint of strength. With one glance, she could bewitch with her clear eyes, and with a lowered gaze, she could reveal endless tenderness that could make one succumb.

Gu Guotai felt puzzled. Had his grandson’s taste changed?

Because his grandson had caused trouble, his tone unconsciously softened, “Old Madam, I’m not sure what my mischievous grandson did to displease you? I’ll call him over right now and give him a good lesson!”

“He pestered my granddaughter for no reason, causing trouble for her, and yet your daughter-in-law thinks it’s my granddaughter’s fault. Tell me, shouldn’t I be displeased?”

...

Gu Guotai couldn’t help but look towards Lu Yanxi again. Could it be that his grandson had really changed his preferences and bothered Lu Yanxi? He really knows how to court death; even the Lu Family’s daughter dares he to harass recklessly!

Even Gu Chengsong was surprised. He knew Gu Jing’s preferences better than anyone—Gu Jing couldn’t possibly like the style of Lu Yanxi!

Seeing the father and son both looking towards Lu Yanxi, the Old Madam knew they had misunderstood.

She said coldly, “Gu Jing isn’t pestering this granddaughter of mine, it’s another one!”

Gu Guotai was slightly dazed, “You have another granddaughter? How come I only remember you having this one, born to your second child, while the eldest in your family had a son, didn’t they?”

“The other granddaughter isn’t born to the eldest nor the second child. She’s someone I recognized as my own, but she is just as dear to me as my own granddaughter. That’s why I am here today to seek justice for her.”

“Recognized? Then why isn’t she here?”

The Old Madam’s words carried a hint of anger, “She injured her face and couldn’t come!”

“Injured her face? Who injured her? My good-for-nothing grandson?”

“Not him.”

Despite having navigated the market for decades and dealing with complex situations with ease, Gu Guotai still found the current situation somewhat overwhelming, “If it wasn’t my grandson who hurt your granddaughter, why are you coming to me to seek justice?”

“Because it was your daughter-in-law who hurt my granddaughter! She said by ruining my granddaughter’s face, your grandson would no longer fancy her! How can there be such ludicrous actions in this world? Failing to discipline her own son who is a womanizer, she went and disfigured a girl’s appearance!”

The Old Madam was genuinely angry, her voice raising unconsciously, “Please tell me, Old Sir Gu, is this the kind of family tradition of the Gu Family, or is it from your daughter-in-law’s maternal family, the Hou Family?! Why should my granddaughter suffer harassment from your grandson and then have her face destroyed by your daughter-in-law? I must have an explanation today!”

Gu Guotai was completely shocked, “It was Jing’s mother who hurt your granddaughter?! How is that possible! Jing’s mother may have a bit of a temper, but she comes from a major family and knows propriety; how could she commit such an act!”

“I couldn’t believe it either that your daughter-in-law could do such a thing, but I’ve confirmed it already, it was indeed her doing. If you don’t believe me, then call her here and let’s confront the matter face to face!”

Right away, Gu Guotai turned to his son, “Call your eldest sister-in-law immediately, tell her to come here!”

Gu Chengsong, knowing the foolish act Hou Jinhua had committed, couldn’t be happier inside, although he maintained a grave expression and said, “Alright, dad, I’ll call Eldest sister-in-law right now.”

He walked briskly out of the living room, went outside, and dialed Hou Jinhua’s number. After a brief conversation, he intentionally downplayed the issue, merely mentioning that Gu Guotai asked her to come over, and then he hung up.

However, Hou Jinhua was no fool herself; she was well aware of what she had done that day, clearer than Gu Chengsong. She figured that with Qiao Yin’s face injured like that, it was impossible not to involve Old Sir Gu, and Gu Guotai calling her over late at night was probably for this very issue.
