The Outcast Heiress’s Secret Identities
Chapter 620 - Chapter 620 Is 0610 really as kind as he sees

Chapter 620: Is 0610 really as kind as he sees? Chapter 620: Is 0610 really as kind as he sees? Thank goodness Gu Heng hadn’t chosen her, otherwise, having such a person become a daughter-in-law of the Gu Family, she would have been ashamed to show her face in public.

She would have been utterly unable to hold her head up high, only becoming a laughingstock to be mocked by others.

And now, as Xinyan was a daughter-in-law of the Gu Family, hitting her would be equivalent to slapping the Gu Family’s face.

“I don’t expect her to understand me now, I just hope she stays far away from our family. Xinyan always treats her with utmost respect, enduring and forbearing, but look at what she’s done to Xinyan.”

Su Xinyan timidly lowered her head, her face a picture of meekness and anxious unease, and coupled with her injuries that had not yet fully healed, it immediately elicited a wave of pity from Deng Jingru.

“Don’t worry, Xinyan is now a daughter-in-law of the Gu Family, not just anyone can bully her.”

Deng Jingru’s words were undoubtedly a show of support for Su Xinyan, which pleased Tan Lirong greatly.

Looking at Deng Jingru, she said with a sense of relief,

“Xinyan is so fortunate to have you as a mother-in-law.”

Deng Jingru was also delighted, “Having such a capable daughter-in-law is, naturally, my good fortune as well. But, after all, it’s due to Director Wen and her mother’s excellent upbringing. She’s beautiful and talented, and even the predetermined winner of this year’s World Designer Competition. I still don’t know how our Gu Heng got so lucky, to bring such a wonderful daughter-in-law back to the Gu Family.”

Su Xinyan, nearly praised to the skies by Deng Jingru, sat shyly next to Gu Heng, her blushing face eliciting a wave of tenderness from him.

Wen Peipei and Tan Lirong also felt a great sense of pride, their chins slightly lifted in satisfaction.

Indeed, Xinyan had always been their pride, well-behaved and sensitive to the needs of others, with a first-class temperament, and well-known in the Yong City circle of young socialites as a lady of note. She had hardly ever disappointed them.

“Don’t say that, your son Gu Heng is also very good. Having him as a son-in-law is also a blessing for our Su Family,” Wen Peipei said with satisfaction.

“Exactly, anyone who sees this young couple would say ‘Golden Boy and Jade Girl, a match made in heaven,'” Tan Lirong chimed in with a compliment as well.

As a mother, Deng Jingru was pleased to hear praises for her son.

The living room was suddenly filled with joy and harmony, and today’s homecoming visit was going smoother than ever.

Su Xinyan and Gu Heng, the young couple, were also blushing from the teasing of the elders.

She hid in Gu Heng’s arms, feeling incredibly smug.

It was just a shame that Su Ran couldn’t witness this scene with her own eyes.

But, thinking of the difficulties Su Ran was currently facing, as well as the various insults from netizens, her heart was still filled with joy.

Let her swagger in front of her, indeed!

This is the consequence of opposing her!

However, what Su Xinyan hadn’t anticipated was that online public opinion was about to undergo a dramatic change.

At this time, the maid had also prepared lunch and came to the living room with caution.

“Elder Master, Elder Mistress, Mister, and Madam, lunch is ready.”

Hearing this, Wen Peipei was the first to stand from the sofa and said with a smile to Gu Qiming, Deng Jingru, and the others,

“Since lunch is ready, let’s take our seats!”

Everyone nodded and stood up one after the other.

Deng Jingru also rose to her feet, but at that moment, the clock on the living room wall suddenly sounded a deep “dong.”

The sound was heavy and low, as if striking right at people’s hearts.

For some reason, Deng Jingru suddenly felt uneasy, her heart starting to panic, with the feeling that something was going to happen.

She looked up at the clock–it was twelve o’clock noon.

She let out a quiet sigh, finding it funny how sensitive she was being.

Just as she was about to head to the dining room, the screen on the TV suddenly changed, and on the large LCD screen, several familiar figures appeared.

And the place where several people were located was the living room of the Su family.

Deng Jingru’s eyes flashed with a hint of doubt as she stared intently at the television screen.

After everyone was seated, Tan Lirong carefully noticed that Deng Jingru stood in the living room without moving.

Seeing her stare motionlessly at the television, Tan Lirong felt some disdain in her heart, but she managed to fake her expression quite well.

“My dear mother-in-law, what are you watching? Lunch is ready, you…”

“But it’s just an ordinary-looking jade pendant? Who would steal such a thing? Don’t tell me you’re trying to set us up?”

Tan Lirong hadn’t finished speaking when she was interrupted by a sudden voice from the television.

Once she heard the content, her face changed abruptly, and the smile instantly froze on her face, unable to hold any longer.

Even because of the conversation that followed, her complexion turned pale.

Upon hearing this, everyone else also turned curious glances this way, and all eyes fell on the television in unison.

However, no one noticed that the expressions on Tan Lirong and Su Xinyan’s faces became increasingly unsightly.

The conversation continued–

“Oh? How do you know it is an ordinary jade pendant? Did I mention it was a jade pendant just now?”

“…”

The high-definition quality of the image displayed every expression on Tan Lirong’s face clearly, followed by footage of her taking that jade pendant out of her own room.

Seeing this, Tan Lirong’s eyes suddenly widened, and her face turned completely white in an instant.

Yet it wasn’t over, the scene shifted to another video.

In the video, she was sitting in the main seat on the sofa, forcing Aunt Zhang to admit to the theft.

After that, it showed her slapping Aunt Zhang, then speaking insults, making mockeries, and even threatening the other maids.

In the end, it showed her ordering ‘curve’ to fetch water for her footbath, along with other scenes of her bullying the maids.

Tan Lirong’s legs trembled violently, bending at the knees as she collapsed directly into her chair.

After the video ended, the living room fell to a creepy silence for a while.

No one spoke, but precisely because of this, the atmosphere became even more frightening.

Wen Peipei was so enraged that she couldn’t catch her breath, and the veins on her forehead throbbed visibly.

With a “smack”!

She slammed her palm down on the dining table, her eyes glaring fiercely at Tan Lirong.

“What’s going on? How could there be such a video online?”

“I…”

Tan Lirong, with her head lowered, didn’t dare to look at Wen Peipei. Her lips were trembling, and her mind was in chaos, not knowing what to say.

Deng Jingru stiffly turned her head to look at Tan Lirong, “Dear mother-in-law, what in the world is going on? These videos on the internet…”

Tan Lirong’s face alternated between shades of green and white, her shoulders tensed, and she was consumed with shame and anger.

And after watching the video, Gu Heng’s handsome face also darkened instantly.

Especially when he saw Su Xinyan sitting on the sofa calmly threatening and warning the maids, his mind went blank.

The Xinyan who often appeared innocent and kind in front of him, was she really as kind as he had seen?

He slowly lowered his gaze, staring at Su Xinyan with eyes full of complexity.
