Old Madam reached out and picked Gu Yin up. She wiped her tears. "Life sure is tough."

Gu Yin got up and stood beside Old Madam. She bit her lip tightly as her tears kept falling.

Xia Mingzhu patted Gu Yin on the shoulder. "Yin Yin, don’t cry. In the future, the Lei family will be your family. Your uncle and I will take good care of you."

Gu Yin nodded.

Gu Mang was still kneeling. She burned two sets of incense paper and candles. When the candles were about to finish burning, she spoke. "Mom, Dad. Gu Si has something on, he will come back and visit you another time."

With that, she got up and got rid of all the weeds around the grave, making it clean and tidy. The others bowed and put some white flowers before the grave.

It was cold outside. Lei Cong wore very thinly and he was shivering in the cold.

Xia Mingzhu noticed it and looked at Lei Xiao. Softly, she said. "When are we going in? Cong Cong’s clothes are very thin and I’m afraid that he might fall sick."

Lei Xiao looked at Lei Cong. "Soon."

Xia Mingzhu uttered an assent. They were at the grave for about 40 minutes then the entire family walked home.

Along the way, Old Master narrowed his eyes to look at Gu Mang who was wearing a baseball cap and using her phone as if she were replying to some messages. Softly, he said, "Gu Mang, I heard that you are a designer at Lan Ting?" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Gu Mang gave what seemed like an evil smile. She answered softly, "Mm."

Seeing such an attitude of hers, the Old Master’s expression turned sullen. He tried to find a way to give himself an out. "Since you are good at it, you should learn well. In the future, you can get into a third tier design school. Getting a degree would look nice."

Lei Xiao turned to Gu Mang and added, "You should do well in school. Earlier, I wanted you to live with the Lei family and take tuition classes with Yin Yin, yet you chose to waste time."

Gu Mang didn’t reply. The other relatives joined in.

"The problem now is not whether there’s a school that she wants to attend but rather if there is any school that wants to admit her." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

A few relatives agreed. Gu Mang replied to a message and put her phone into her pocket. Then she looked up and glanced at the people around her. The sharp look in her eyes made everyone go silent. There were some thin, red, veins visible in her eyes and she looked unspeakably scary.

Ever since the husband and wife of the Gu family passed on, she seemed to not hold back on her craziness. The sharp look in her eyes caused a shiver-inducing chill.

After a while, she smirked and answered Lei Cong’s question. "I’m not done choosing."

Hearing that, Lei Xiao frowned. "You are still picking?"

Gu Yin laughed. "Sis, what’s most important is to pick something that is suitable for yourself."

With those grades of hers, even getting into a technical school would be considered a high climb. Gu Mang said nothing.
