Chapter 980: Chapter 979: The Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Conflict
Mrs. Wen saw Gu Huanhuan being submissive and did not say anything more.
Gu Huanhuan breathed a sigh of relief, then picked up Warm sunlight and played with her.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wen asked casually, “Huanhuan, do you and Wen Chi plan on having another child?”
Gu Huanhuan was taken aback, they had plans to have another child before, but Wen Chi thought Warm sunlight was still too young and wanted to wait until she was older, so the matter had been put on hold.
Now that Mrs. Wen suddenly asked, Gu Huanhuan didn’t know what to say.
“Warm sunlight is still young, we’ll plan for another when she’s older…” Gu Huanhuan echoed Wen Chi’s words.
“Huanhuan, you’re wrong to think that way. Having children sooner is better. You’ll recover your figure faster too. Warm sunlight is almost 2 years old now, and we have a nanny to help.”
“Oh, I understand, I’ll discuss it with Wen Chi,” said Gu Huanhuan.
“Huanhuan, don’t take this the wrong way, but Wen Chi’s salary is high now, more than enough to provide for you and your daughter. You don’t need to be out and about anymore, especially since it’s not good for a woman.”
Mrs. Wen had previously supported Gu Huanhuan’s career because, after all, having a daughter-in-law who was a star was something she was proud of. But as negative news from the entertainment industry began to surface, Mrs. Wen became dissatisfied, feeling the environment was too messy and could lead someone astray, especially when Gu Huanhuan was previously rumored to have had an affair with another actor, which gave Mrs. Wen an even worse impression.
Hearing this, Gu Huanhuan stood stunned, an incredulous expression on her face. So, this is what her mother-in-law thought?
Suddenly, she felt hurt. Wasn’t she working hard for the family? How had that turned into seeking the limelight?
No wonder her mother-in-law hadn’t visited in such a long time; she had already formed opinions.
She guessed that her mother-in-law had already discussed this with Wen Chi, but since he didn’t want to deal with it and never mentioned it, Mrs. Wen had come to talk to her directly.
Despite doing her duty as a daughter-in-law all this time, she still ended up with such a reputation.
“Mom, acting is my hobby and my job, I don’t think it’s about seeking the limelight,” Gu Huanhuan couldn’t help but respond.
Seeing Gu Huanhuan talk back, Mrs. Wen suddenly became anxious, “Huanhuan, I’m saying this for your good. Think about it, Wen Chi works so hard, can’t you give him some peace of mind?”
The more her mother-in-law talked, the more absurd it sounded to Gu Huanhuan, causing her to frown, but she couldn’t continue the conversation. She was afraid she might say something she’d regret and hurt everyone’s feelings.
But she felt very depressed inside; it was all just too much. Holding back her emotions, she managed to say, “Mom, I understand,”
Then she took Warm sunlight and went back to her room. Inside, Gu Huanhuan’s tears fell like pearls off a string.
She felt wronged, hurt in a way she had never been before.
Warm sunlight seemed to sense her mother’s unhappiness and quietly sat there watching her.
Gu Huanhuan took two tissues, wiped her tears away, and at that moment, she wanted to leave this house immediately.
She felt so stifled.
But when she looked through her contacts, she realized she had nowhere to go.
She certainly couldn’t go back to her cousin-in-law’s place, and her only close friend, Shen Weiwei, was out of town filming.
All Gu Huanhuan could do was to wipe away her tears, yet in her heart, she had made a decision – to keep her distance from now on.
Gu Huanhuan was clear in her conscience. Acting was her passion, and she wasn’t going to give it up over this.
