C20 That's Your Mother!

Gu Zi Chen and Chu Xiaoqing soon arrived at the Chu Clan's residence. The Chu Clan was a merchant after all. Although their strength was far from that of the Gu Clan, it was still better than nothing.

Speaking of which, Gu Zi Chen could count the number of times he had come to the Chu Clan during his two years of marriage. If he didn't come, then the Chu Clan wouldn't dare to say anything.

"Mom, I'm back."

After entering the room, Chu Xiaqing looked at her mother who was sitting in the living room watching television. Only then did she greet her mother.

Hearing the sound, Chu Mu's mother turned her head and saw that both Chu Xiaoqing and Gu Zi Chen had returned. She immediately stood up from the sofa in delight and hurriedly went to welcome the two of them.

"Zi Chen is here?"

Of course, his mother's happiness had nothing to do with Chu Xiaqing. She was just happy that Gu Zi Chen had come …

"Come, come, come! Zi Chen, come and sit!"

After saying that, his mother quickly called Gu Zi Chen over to the living room. From the start to the end, she hadn't even glanced at Chu Xiaoqing, treating her as if she was a transparent person.

Chu Xiaoqing, who stood at the side as if she was an outsider, had long since gotten used to her mother's attitude. If she hadn't married Gu Zi Chen, her mother wouldn't even spare her a glance …

Placing his hands in his pockets, Gu Zi Chen casually stood there, unfazed by his mother's enthusiasm. He had a cold expression on his face the whole time, but to Chu Xiaoqing, he looked like he was paralyzed.

He did not like it when people were too close to him, but after all, this person was Chu Xiaqing's mother. Thus, Gu Zi Chen decided to put up with it and did not directly disrespect his mother.

Then, he followed his mother to the living room …

Chu Xiaqing didn't continue staying at the doorway. She followed her mother and Gu Zi Chen to the living room.

"How is it, Zi Chen, is everyone well?"

After Chu Mu's mother invited Gu Zi Chen to sit down, she smiled at him like a tiger with its tail between its legs and asked him a question.

"Yes."

Gu Zi Chen didn't like her trying to get close with him. After all, he couldn't see through her little schemes. She was smarter than anyone, and she was more powerful than anyone else. If not for the fact that he was Gu Zi Chen, she probably would've taken him seriously …

In this world, money and power was everything, so there was nothing to worry about. In this world, what you needed to do was not for others to adapt to you, but for you to become stronger yourself. To let others curry favor with you was the right thing to do.

With that thought in mind, Gu Zi Chen turned to his mother and coldly replied with a single syllable, "En." Other than that, he was too lazy to even say another word.

If her mother was talking to Gu Zi Chen, she would just take out her phone and play games. Listening to the conversation between her mother and Gu Zi Chen, watching Gu Zi Chen's cold attitude towards her, Chu Xiaoqing didn't have any feelings for him, she had long since gotten used to it.

Gu Zi Chen didn't like her from the start, so how could he like her family? His mother always used her own face to stick to someone else's cold butt, so there was nothing she could do …

Just as the atmosphere in the living room turned awkward, a familiar voice came from the corner of the stairs. It was a soft and gentle voice with a hint of sharpness. Chu Xiaqing didn't even need to look to know that it was Chu Sijia.

That was to say, unless it was absolutely necessary, Chu Xiaoqing didn't want to come back, nor did she want to take a step into the Chu Clan. Her mother's attitude already made her heart clench, but she still needed to spare some energy to fight with Chu Sijia.

"Oh, who is this? When did Big Sister come back? How rare!"

As Chu Sijia walked towards the living room, she asked Chu Xiaoqing in a light tone. There was a trace of contempt in her eyes for Chu Xiaqing. From the looks of it, the two of them had not been together for a long time.

As Gu Zi Chen watched her walk over, as well as the interactions between her and Chu Xiaoqing, his eyes sunk unconsciously.

This Chu Sijia wasn't someone who was easy to deal with. The thing she loved to do the most was to make things difficult for Chu Xiaoqing. He wasn't sure about anything else, but after coming to the Chu Clan with Chu Xiaoqing a few times, she had secretly and secretly targeted her.

Although he didn't want to say it, it didn't mean that he didn't know anything.

However, it seemed like this had nothing to do with him. It didn't matter, since he had nothing to do with it, he would just treat it as watching a show …

"Just came back."

Chu Xiaoqing was too lazy to bother with her, and she didn't like to argue with her, because it was meaningless.

In any case, regardless of whether she could compete with Chu Sijia or not, her mother would always turn to her in the end. She was always the only one being scolded and scolded.

As she thought of this, Chu Xiaoqing replied to Chu Sijia with an indifferent tone.

"Aiya, Jiajia is done with her homework."

Sure enough, when Chu Mu's mother saw that Chu Sijia had come over, she hurriedly opened her mouth and asked her with a smile.

Hearing her mother's question, Chu Sijia shot a disdainful glance at her mother from the corner of her eyes, as if she didn't want to bother with her mother at all.

"Mind your own business!"

In the next second, Chu Sijia impatiently muttered something to her mother.

"Chu Sijia, how can you talk to your mother like that!"

Even though Chu Sijia muttered these words softly, Chu Xiaoqing still heard them. No matter what, no matter how bad she was to herself, she was still her mother. Seeing her attitude towards her mother, Chu Xiaoqing was naturally unhappy.

"That's your mom, not my mom!"

It was one thing if Chu Xiaoqing did not question him, but her questioning had instead aroused Chu Sijia's emotions. In the next second, Chu Sijia turned to look at Xiaoqing, who was sitting in front of her.

"Please figure it out, my mom passed away when I was one year old, where did I get my mom?"

"You!"

Chu Xiaoqing was also at a loss for words when she heard Chu Sijia's words. She just stared angrily at her, not knowing how to respond to what she had to say.

In an instant, the living room had descended into a state of intense hostility …
