Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 1236

Jiang Yao chuckled. Lu Xingzhi meant the money Gu Junhui's mother had given them because she was afraid that her daughter would suffer while with Gu Changshu, who had just been released from prison. The man had nothing, so she gave Gu Junhui a large sum of money for them to settle down for a more comfortable life.

Naturally, Jiang Yao had more money than Lu Xingzhi because she had a relatively well-to-do mother.

Gu Changshu was poor; that was in the information.

No matter how hardworking and capable, a person who had just been out of prison for a few months would not have much money.

Gu Changshu had killed his stepfather when he was 19 and was sentenced to ten years in prison. His experience was even more miserable than Gu Junhui's.

His biological father had died of illness, and his mother had remarried. As a result, his stepfather treated him badly. The man had beaten him since he was young. Not only did his stepfather beat him, but he would also beat his mother if he were not happy.

Gu Changshu killed his stepfather when he saw the man hit his mother when he got home from work. In a fit of anger, he took a kitchen knife from the kitchen and killed his stepfather.

He had killed his stepfather for his mother, but in the end, his mother complained that he should not have killed the family's patriarch.

After Gu Changshu was imprisoned, his mother only had his half-brother with her. There was no one else in the family. Gu Changshu's half-brother lived off the family, but the child was young, and no adults watched him. Gu Changshu had died unexpectedly in his third year in prison. His neighbors in his hometown had even arranged his funeral, but no one was sad for him.

While Gu Changshu was in prison, only Gu Junhui, his next-door neighbor, still remembered to visit him in prison.
