Mu Xiaoxiao was a little worried, afraid that she might have mentioned her sadness.
Lu Qianlan finally came to her senses, looked at Mu Xiaoxiao's eyes with a hint of caution, and asked, "Do you know Gu Pingyuan? What is your relationship with him?"
Mu Xiaoxiao quickly explained, "I know him, but he is just an elder I know, and there is no other relationship."
Lu Qianlan's eyes were a little complicated, "Then... did you know something?"
Mu Xiaoxiao thought for a while and nodded frankly, "Forget it, my friend told me that he is... Yichen's father, is it true?"
When this truth was spoken, Lu Qianlan's expression was a little sad, and she sighed heavily.
"It's true," she responded.
After confirming the answer she wanted to know, Mu Xiaoxiao felt a little heavy, "Then you and Uncle Gu are..."
Is it really like what Yin Shaojie said, that Lu Yichen is Gu Pingyuan's illegitimate son
Worried that Lu Qianlan would misunderstand that he looked down on her, Mu Xiaoxiao quickly explained, "I just don't think you are that kind of person, auntie. Is there something hidden?"
"What kind of person?" Lu Qianlan asked in confusion.
"It's just..." Mu Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed to say it. His hands moved tangledly, but he didn't know how to express it.
Lu Qianlan suddenly understood.
She sneered, as if she had heard something ridiculous, and asked, "Is this what people from the Gu family say about me to the outside world?"
Mu Xiaoxiao heard some anger in her tone, and immediately guessed that the truth might not be like that.
She nodded, "That's what my friend said."
"They are really bullying people!" Lu Qianlan suddenly shouted angrily, tears filling her eyes with grievance, but she didn't let them flow down and quickly wiped them away.
Mu Xiaoxiao felt that she had done something wrong, so she panicked and took out a tissue, handed it to her, and quickly comforted her, "Auntie, don't cry, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked."
Lu Qianlan shook her head, "It's not your fault. I want to thank you for letting me know this."
"Auntie..." Mu Xiaoxiao looked at her worriedly. Although she was curious about the truth, she didn't dare to ask anymore in this situation.
Lu Qianlan calmed down, looked at her and said, "Do you want to know what the relationship between me and Gu Pingyuan is?"
Mu Xiaoxiao shook his head and said, "Auntie, if you don't want to say it..."
"It doesn't matter. It's not something that can't be said. What we really don't dare to let others know is that they care about the family." Lu Qianlan said, looking out the window with faint eyes.
"I am Gu Pingyuan's first wife. Oh, I should say, I am his first wife. He and the mistress should also be officially married."
Hearing this, Mu Xiaoxiao's eyes widened in shock, "T-so... Auntie, you are... Uncle Gu's wife?"
Lu Qianlan is not the woman Gu Pingyuan raised outside, but his real wife!
After listening to Lu Qianlan's explanation, Mu Xiaoxiao understood what was going on.
It turned out that Lu Qianlan had married Gu Pingyuan a long time ago, but at that time Gu Pingyuan was competing with other members of the Gu family for control of the Gu family. Lu Qianlan did not help him in his struggle for power. At this time, another woman hooked up with Gu Pingyuan. The woman was able to help him and used some tricks to drive Lu Qianlan, who was pregnant at the time, out of the Gu family.
Not only that, that woman was very vicious and brought down Lu Qianlan's family, which made Lu Qianlan resentful and severed ties with her.
