Gu Xiao had tears in his eyes and shook off her hand: "If I could choose, I would definitely not be your son."
Gu Yunzhu said sharply: "You will understand my good intentions in the future. You have to take this money whether you want to or not. Whoever fights for you is the one who treats you well."
"Who pushed me to the forefront? Who put me in the vortex of public opinion? Who made everyone look down on me and call me a bastard? It was you. Everything was because of you. I told you that I didn't need money. Lying on a mountain of gold and silver, but without a family by my side, is such a life interesting?"
If Gu Yunzhu could be touched by his words, she would not be Gu Yunzhu anymore.
"You don't understand now, but you will understand in the future. Anyway, you have signed. The Fu family will definitely bleed heavily this time. I gave birth to such a big son for Fu Xianyuan, but Ye Minqiu cruelly took back all the inheritance that Fu Xianyuan left me. This is what the Fu family should have given you. You better bear it."
Gu Xiao looked at her coldly: "You asked the lawyer to switch my documents and tricked me into signing."
Gu Yunzhu smiled: "But in their eyes, this is what you signed. I advise you not to think about entering the Fu family. They don't think highly of you, so why bother to go to their house and live under their roof? The real thing is to take the money outside."
Gu Xiao had nothing to say to her, so he slammed the door and left. Gu Xiao sat on the side of the road outside the prison until the middle of the night. It was freezing cold, and his mind was blank.
It was so cold in the middle of the night that he got up and walked along the straight road. After walking for two hours, he finally saw some shops and the occasional taxis.
He hailed a car and got in. The car stopped outside his brother's community.
It was early in the morning, so he stood outside and waited until the sky was slightly bright. At six in the morning, he ran to the guard and told him his brother's house number. The guard called in and hung up after a long while, saying, "You go in."
Gu Xiao was walking in the community in winter. The plants growing here were still green. They were all plants such as camphor and holly that did not lose their leaves in winter.
He walked with heavy steps to the downstairs of his brother's apartment and rang the doorbell. After a while, the door opened and a warm air came from inside. Fu Nanli was wearing a homely gray sweater and looked a little lazy, obviously having been woken up by him.
"sorry."
Gu Xiao lowered his head. Apart from sorry, he didn't know what else to say.
"What do you have to feel sorry for?" The man's voice was a little hoarse when he woke up. His tone was flat and he didn't seem happy. "Those things should have been yours. I would have given them to you even if you didn't ask for them."
Gu Xiao's eyes suddenly turned red, and he looked up at his brother: "If I say those documents were signed without my knowledge, would you believe it?"
Fu Nanli stood up straight, his eyes changed from sleepy to sharp: "Really?"
Gu Xiao nodded: "Yes."
He told him everything about his mother's lawyer coming to see him, and Fu Nanli put his hand on his shoulder, "Come in and talk."
The two sat opposite each other on the sofa in the living room. Gu Xiao was still a little reserved. Fu Nanli felt like he was disappointed with his friend. "Why aren't you on guard against Gu Yunzhu?"
Gu Xiao clenched his fists: "She said she wanted to sign a document giving up custody, I..."
