Huang Lilan's lips were trembling. "Mom, no. It's not like that… I…"
"Kneel!"
Old Madam Gu did not want to listen to her explanation at all. She raised the walking cane in her hand and hit Huang Lilan's leg heavily. Huang Lilan felt a sharp pain in her knee and her body immediately knelt on the ground.
This was the first time Qiao Xi had seen Old Madam Gu fly into a rage. Her face was filled with shock.
Although this old lady was getting on in years, she was still quite strong. With just one swing of her cane, Huang Lilan had already knelt down. No wonder she gave her a lethal weapon the first time they met.
Old Madam Gu was full of vigor. "Huang Lilan, do you think that I'm terminally ill and won't be able to live for long? Do you think it's your turn to make decisions for the Gu family now?"
Huang Lilan's face contorted in pain, but her tone remained gentle. "No… No, Mom. I really…"
