After a long breath in, Lin Lijuan lied without hesitation, "Gu Qing, we're relatives. How could I step aside when you need help? The point is that you never talk to us about your troubles! And Gu Man, the old house belongs to the sons of our mother, but we've allowed you to live in there for so many years. We've done a lot for you both!"
"They paid you rent! Besides, it was you who kicked them out when they were in trouble!" Gu Qing retorted.
Lin Lijuan was immediately mad. "That was because Gu Ning hit my daughter and even refused to apologize! They deserved it!"
"She deserved it." Gu Ning met Lin Lijuan's glare without cowardice.
"You…" Lin Lijuan was annoyed as well as surprised that Gu Ning dared to talk to her in that way.
