Hu Guo pretended not to understand Zhou Mo's explanation to Lin Yu in order to ruin Yun Xi's reputation.
Hu Guo had wanted to use this incident to expose Yun Xi's ‘true colors” and wait for the family to agree with her thoughts. Then, she would add oil to the fire, so Old Master Zhou would not be happy about it.
However, Hu Guo's plan had failed!
Old Master Zhou had specially instructed Zhou Lin to accompany Yun Xi back!
This caused Hu Guo's face to burn in pain, as if she had been slapped in public.
At this moment, Hu Guo could only smile in embarrassment to hide his embarrassment. She hurriedly said, “Grandpa Zhou, I was just worried about you. I thought they wouldn't take good care of you. Grandpa Zhou's health isn't good now, so you can't be angry. I was just overthinking it.”
Hu Guo said a bunch of polite words and then shifted the matter to another place.
Originally, Old Master Zhou did not intend to argue with her. He spoke up for Yun Xi because he could not bear to see Hu Guo like this.
Elder Hu, who was standing at the side, saw that his granddaughter had made the other party unhappy, so he also opened his mouth to smooth things over.
“Old Zhou, I heard that you had a physical examination in the hospital a few days ago. Why did it suddenly become like this?”
Although this matter had been suppressed, Hu Guo was still very unconvinced.
Why did Yun Xi have the right to be liked by Old Master Zhou?
Why did Old Master Zhou have to protect Yun Xi in front of so many people?
She only said a few words about Yun Xi, but Old Master Zhou was already defending her, dissatisfied.
Moreover, Hu Guo really did not expect that it was Old Master Zhou who had asked Zhou Lin to accompany Yun Xi home.
‘It's just moving some things, why do you need two people to go together?”
Hu Guo could not help but feel a little jealous. This jealousy originated from Old Master Zhou's favoritism for Yun Xi.
After thinking about it, Hu Guo felt even more displeased.
Elder Hu and elder Zhou also exchanged greetings for a while. Lin Yu, who was sitting at the side, noticed that the two of them seemed to be a little tired.
After all, Old Master Zhou was still sick and could not talk for too long.
“Grandpa Zhou, Grandpa Hu, you must be thirsty. I'll go get some hot water for you.” As Lin Yu spoke, she stood up and picked up the kettle.
This was a good opportunity! Hu Guo immediately followed after Lin Yu the moment he stepped out of the door.
Since she could not deal with Old Master Zhou, she would have to deal with Lin Yu.
After all, Yun Xi had been engaged to Zhou Mo before. It was impossible for any woman to not care about this matter.
If that was the case, Lin Yu would definitely speak up for her and stand on her side.
Hu Guo began to plan in her mind and immediately went to Lin Yu's side, “Sigh…”
“Yun Xi is really lucky!”
Lin Yu smiled and asked nonchalantly, “What's wrong?”
Lin Yu was well aware of what Hu Guo was planning. After all, they were both women, but Hu Guo's performance was already so clear.
However, since Hu Guo wanted to put on an act, she would play along.
“Didn't you notice? Just now, Grandpa Zhou had been so protective of Yun Xi. I only raised my own doubts, but Grandpa Zhou reprimanded me severely. I'm afraid Yun Xi's status in the Zhou family will be extraordinary in the future.”
Hu Guo said in an envious tone, trying to provoke Lin Yu's dissatisfaction.
In order to vilify Yun Xi, she did not hesitate to reveal all the past.
“Sister-in-law, don't you feel bad at all? Yun Xi had been engaged to Zhou Mo before. She didn't expect to be able to be with Zhou Lin after the engagement was called off. We're both women, but why is Yun Xi so lucky?”
“What a pity! Sister-in-law is so pretty and has such a good figure, why…” Hu Guo deliberately did not finish her sentence.
At the same time, she was also observing the changes on Lin Yu's face.
However, after observing him for a while, Hu Guo realized that there was no change in Lin Yu's expression. In fact, it could even be said that she was completely unmoved by what Hu Guo had just said.
