Gu Shishi took a sip of the soy milk and pointed at the screen.

[Ivy: I had my name on the video clip and a lot of head hunters had been reaching out to me lately. There are several companies out there wanted to recruit you for big dollars. I didn’t dare to turn them down and had taken all of their contact information. Do you want to take a look at them?]

“No need,” said Huo Sishen with his brows raised.

“Hey now. She was just relating the messages to me out of courtesy. What are you worried about? Go back to your documents. I’ll talk to her,” said Gu Shishi as she shoved the thigh in pants next to her.

Ivy had already sent over an excel file while they talked.

The contact information of the head hunters, the title and the compensation were all listed out clearly.

After a little while and after she had recovered a little, she only wanted to run away from this suffocating room.

By the time she got to the corridor, she finally remembered to send a message to Gu Wushuang telling her that she would be taking off for now because she didn’t want to distract her from her work.

Mother Gu noticed that the secretary was looking at her funny. She couldn't help but touched her own face and remembered that she was crying just a little while again. She rushed into the bathroom to reapply her makeup.

Right when she was about to leave, however, she heard a familiar voice as she walked past the fire exit.

“Mom, I’ve been very busy lately and been working long hours a lot. I need to make more money now so I can support the two of you after you have grown old.

“Mommy, I will show you the company’s books in a little bit. We are in the reds right now. Even the few subsidiaries that are making money, the capitals are tight. We are still in debt and owe a lot to the banks.”

Gu Wushuang bit her lips.

“I have about 200,000 yuan in my bank account. I will transfer those over to you in a little bit. That’s really all I have right now. I had been planning my wedding with Brother Cheng and spent a lot of wedding gown and banquet a while ago. If you want, I will have Brother Cheng cancel the wedding gown for now.”

Having said that, Gu Wushuang was about to start crying.

“Brother Cheng was dragged down by Dad and was kicked out both from his company and his family. His saving was only enough for us to buy a place. I had to foot all the bills for the wedding.”

How pitiful was that?

Mother Gu was short of screaming when she got to the capital city and haze part. Even Gu Wushuang was startled.

The Mother Gu in the past had always been very pampered and known to be elegant and always mindful of her image.

Since when had she ever talked loudly in public?

Never mind about taking this tone to her daughter who had heart problem and couldn’t handle any kind of stimulations.

This was the first time Gu Wushuang saw her mother like this.

She couldn't help but felt a visceral kind of resentfulness toward her.

So this mother was finally letting her true self shown.

She started yelling at her because she was just the adopted daughter.
