In front of Wang Hui’s gravestone at Qingshan Cemetery.

After Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye left, Doris did not leave right away. She remained standing at the same spot, watching their figures vanish until she could no longer see them before she turned back to look at Wang Hui’s photo on the gravestone.

After a while, a faintly cold smile flashed across that charming face of hers.

She stood there unmoving as if she had fallen into deep thought until she heard the sound of footsteps. Then, she came back to her senses and turned to see Gu Qiwu walk over with a bouquet in his arms.

As always, he was dressed in a well-tailored black suit. Despite being already over 50 years old, he still had the steadiness and charm of a matured man.

When he saw Doris, Gu Qiwu was clearly shocked. His steps faltered for a bit, but he quickly recovered and continued ahead. His stern face did not reveal any expression, but his silent eyes clearly softened at the sight of Doris. In an instant, they became mixed with emotions, and finally returned to calm.

He stopped by her side and bent down to put the bouquet by the gravestone before he said, “Why are you here? It’s windy. If you’re done paying your respects, then we should go.” It was easy to hear the touch of concern in his voice.

“Didn’t you come too? I didn’t know when you reconciled with the Mu family again to the point that you’d come all the way to pay your respects.” A sharp, cold light flashed in Doris’s blue eyes as she stared at Gu Qiwu incisively.

“Is paying respects on behalf of the Gu family inappropriate?” When Gu Qiwu heard Doris, his expression turned cold in an instant. The softness in his eyes instantly vanished and was replaced with a chill.

“Is that so? Are there any reasons apart from paying respects on behalf of the Gu family? Gu Qiwu, which part of what you say right now is real? Can you tell me?” Doris’s tone contained a strong punch of attack and the air seemed to be filled with gunpowder. “You went ahead and decided on Shasha’s matter your own. You let them get married sloppily without asking me about it. How should we settle this score? Tell me, how? Speechless?”

Her imposing manner exploded and drowned Gu Qiwu immediately.

“Alright, Doris, I don’t want to fight with you. Fighting can’t solve anything! Weiwei’s already so old. She can’t not have a father and Shasha’s past her prime. After all, she and Qi Feng have been together for many years now. If you won’t let them get married, are you planning on marrying Shasha off to someone else?” Gu Qiwu sighed helplessly and explained patiently.

“Enough! Don’t talk to me about Weiwei! A disabled child is only a burden! Shasha is just like you, Gu Qiwu. You’re both weak! You’re soft! I already told Shasha to be more decisive back then and to abort the child. Perhaps, by now her body wouldn’t have been ruined. It was the two of you that were overcautious! You don’t have any drive at all! Useless!” Her sharp tone contained a sinister chill that hit him right on the head!

She was like that. Whenever she wanted to scold someone, she would not care about the other person at all and would be extremely condescending. Gu Qiwu knew that best through the years. Sometimes, he hated it when she was like this, yet he cared a lot about her.

“Since the child is already born, there’s no point complaining about it. Right now, just let Qi Feng and Shasha get married smoothly so that Shasha can become the Qi family’s future heiress. What’s so bad about that?” Gu Qiwu said in a lowered voice.

Upon hearing that, a disdain flashed across Doris’s lips. “What kind of happiness do you think she’ll enjoy while being married to a cripple? Do you think you really care about your daughter? Or are you trying to make her an item to barter, to fight for profits, to prop up your own wings, and then, later on, come for me? That’s what you’re really thinking about, isn’t it?”

“Doris! Why can’t you see what I’ve been doing for you all these years? Don’t always view me with such a suspicious lens! Why wouldn’t I want our daughter to do well? Back then, wasn’t it me who did the most to matchmake Mu Yuchen and Shasha? It was only later on that Shasha…” Gu Qiwu did not continue as he looked ashen.

“However you want to think of it, all these years, I may have let many people down, but I never thought that I’d let you down, Doris!” Gu Qiwu angrily concluded, then turned around to leave sulkily.

When Doris saw him move further away, her tensed expression softened. She paused before she walked after him.

“I won’t agree to this marriage. If Qi Feng wants to marry my daughter, I’ll have to see his sincerity! Mu Yuchen was such a good choice back then, but that incompetent girl then came home to talk to me about love. How spineless!” she scoffed coldly. Clearly, she was talking about Qi Feng and Gu Lingsha.

Gu Qiwu slowed down as he could not help but say, “Doris, not every woman is as strong as you! Shasha’s just a simple woman who craves warmth and love, and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that!”

“Are all the men in this world dead? Did she have to choose Qi Feng? A cripple who finds it hard to take care of even himself? In fact, do you think Qi Feng’s a simple man? Gu Qiwu, I don’t want to see the day I hear horrible news. If the day comes, you know that the first person I’ll go after is you!”

“You’re going to kill me?” When he heard this, Gu Qiwu’s expression instantly turned dark!

Who was he to her? Who was Gu Qiwu to her?

He, Gu Qiwu, was Doris’s husband! However, this woman had threatened him just like that!

“You can try!” Doris gave him a charming smile, then walked away.

Just when she was about to walk past him, he suddenly reached out to hold her by the arm and patiently say, “Alright, Doris, that’s enough! Since Qi Feng and Shasha love each other, just let them be with each other. I think that the marriage between the Gu and the Qi families is a good thing. Let’s talk about the rest later on. I’ve gotten some gifts for you. In the evening, Qi Feng and Shasha will come over for dinner, so don’t embarrass them anymore.”
