Chapter 1134: Fifth Cousin Is Really Ruthless (10)

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Gu Jinxuan was the Fifth Cousin. He had many older cousins, and they were all so outstanding. His life was the easiest.

He had people to help him, and he had no responsibilities.

He had lived apart from the family for so many years and had spent his entire salary on himself. His family even sent him a little money occasionally. It was a wonderful life.

Of the many people he knew, few led better lives than him.

Many people had to support their entire family on their single salary!

For many years, he had led a carefree life and always felt superior to others. Now that he was in the capital and had gotten to know his cousins, his sense of superiority had vanished.

But it was all right. They were all family, and no one laughed at him. Everyone helped and supported each other.

When Gu Jinxuan thought about the environment his Second Uncle’s family lived in and compared it to his own family, he felt very irritated.

Not just the gap in their finances, but most crucially, his mother.

She really disappointed him!

Someone as proud as Gu Jinxuan could not accept having such a greedy and stupid mother.

The Gu family cousins were all thinking of how to earn money. He thought about what he had witnessed the day before and about what Gu Qingyao had said to him – that his grandparents were the poorest among them.

But to his mother, his grandparents were the richest in the family. Everyone was living in luxury because they relied on their grandparents’ money. She was always thinking about his grandparents’ fortune and hoping they would split up and divide up the fortune.

But the truth was that the members of that side of the Gu family thought that the sum was entirely insignificant. It was just pocket change…

The difference!

Gu Jinxuan could not accept it.

Gu Jinxuan sat up in bed and thought for an entire night. A steely resolve slowly emerged in his eyes.

He must do something!

After the huge quarrel, the atmosphere in Third Uncle’s family grew even more repressive.

Gu Jinxuan grew rather morose and quiet. During this period, he practically ignored Zhou Ping completely. Besides completing his school work, he was out the rest of the time and only came home very late. No one knew what he was up to.

When he was home, he mostly spent his time in his own room.

Meanwhile, Zhou Ping increasingly felt like a stranger in her own home. Little Seven and Little Eight were busy with their schoolwork, and Gu Yundong’s job grew busier.

At the end of the year, even Gu Jinlin was busy with exams. They had just transferred over this year and he had to maintain his grades.

They were so busy they had no time to take care of the family. The two children needed to have their meals and to attend school, and Zhou Ping had to cook for them and take care of them.

If they did not give Zhou Ping money, she would not be able to buy food to cook.

Gu Yundong gave her money, but Gu Jinxuan immediately said, “No need to give her so much. I’ll look after Little Seven and Little Eight. Just give her enough to live on. If you give her more, it won’t reach Little Seven and Little Eight’s stomachs anyway.”

Gu Yundong frowned. “Aren’t you very busy with schoolwork lately? Do you still have time to take care of Little Seven and Little Eight?”

Gu Jinxuan said, “My schoolwork is fine. Little Seven and Little Eight have lunch in school. I’ll come home as early as possible in the future and buy food for my mother to cook.”

Gu Yundong did not say anything. He felt that something was amiss with this son recently.

Gu Jinxuan said, “Don’t hesitate. In any case, don’t give her much money. In the future, the three of us can just buy most of what we need so she doesn’t need to spend much money.”

Gu Yundong thought about it for a while but did not object.

Zhou Ping turned purple with rage, and her eyes filled with hatred.
