Chapter 666: Wanting to Know the Location
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
An icy demeanor radiated from Mother Lin, her greeting cold and formal, a mere courtesy to avoid any awkwardness.
Gu Shan and Zhang Mei, both well into their middle age, were not oblivious to this. A shared glance between them conveyed their mutual understanding that this was not the time for petty squabbles. They swallowed their discomfort, choosing to remain silent.
Gu Shan stepped aside, allowing Zhang Mei to step forward. She forced a smile onto her face as she addressed Mother Lin, “After all, we are Gu Zi’s adoptive parents. She has moved and we can’t find her. We have no place to go if we want to see her.
“We just wanted to say that since she and Su Shen have moved back to the city, they are closer to us now. We can take care of them. We came here to know their address.”
Mother Lin had a hunch about the couple’s intentions, but she genuinely didn’t know where Gu Zi had moved to in the city.
Before Gu Zi left, she had left an address, but only Lin Cheng knew it. Mother Lin had planned to ask her son about it that night and then find time to visit her daughter. She hadn’t expected Gu Zi’s adoptive parents to come asking for it.
She felt a bit relieved that she didn’t know the address, as she didn’t really want to tell these two. Gu Zi was never too happy to see them. “To be honest, I don’t know the address either. Our family hasn’t been there yet.”
Mother Lin’s words were truthful, but upon hearing them, Gu Shan and his wife could no longer suppress their frustration.
They regretted not having fostered a better relationship with Gu Zi. They had raised their daughter for over a decade, only for her to be taken away by the Lin family. Now, they couldn’t even get her address. Who wouldn’t be angry in their shoes?
Zhang Mei’s face instantly clouded over with displeasure. She angrily said, “I’ve been wondering why Gu Zi has been distancing herself from us. Now I see, it’s because you’ve been whispering in her ear, telling her not to associate with us, right?
