Chapter 545: Gu Yang Has No Parents
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ruan Zhihao was reprimanded by Old Master Ruan.
A girl in a short pink down jacket got out of the backseat. She looked about the same age as Gu Yang. Her eyes were deep, her nose was high, and her facial features were more three-dimensional. She had obvious mixed-race characteristics.
In the original host’s memory, the last time she saw her was five years ago. This was her cousin, Ruan Meng, who was about a year younger than her.
The handsome young man beside her was her cousin, Ruan Bin.
Their mother was from Country M and had also returned.
Ruan Meng walked up to Old Master Ruan and shouted in fluent Mandarin,
“Grandfather, Happy New Year! Everything will go as you wish!” Ruan Bin also went forward. “Grandpa, Happy New Year.”
“Little Meng, Little Bin, Happy New Year to you too.” Old Master Ruan’s expression softened when he saw Ruan Bin and Ruan Meng.
“Aunt, Uncle, you’re here too.” Ruan Meng’s gaze swept across the Gu family before landing on Gu Yang and Gu Jin.
Gu Yang suddenly remembered that the original host didn’t have a good relationship with this mixed-race cousin. Of course, the reason was because of the original host.
Five years ago, at Old Master Ruan’s 70th birthday banquet, Ruan Meng’s mixed-race appearance stole a lot of the limelight.
Although the original host was only 12 or 13 years old, she already had the characteristics of a vicious supporting actress who was jealous.
At that time, it was Ruan Meng’s first time coming into contact with the original host. She was kind to this cousin.
She grew up overseas and her mother was from Country M. Her first language was English. At that time, she was not fluent in Chinese.
She asked the original host to help her think of birthday wishes for their grandfather. The original host bullied her for not being good at Chinese and gave her birthday wishes stating the wrong age.
Ruan Meng did not think too much about it and shouted in front of the guests.
Then, everyone fell silent and felt extremely awkward.
The phrase meant 60 years old but Old Master Ruan was celebrating his 70th birthday, and it was wrong.
At that birthday banquet, Ruan Meng was mocked and almost cried as she left the venue.
When Gu Yang heard Ruan Meng’s fluent Chinese just now, she knew that she must have put in a lot of effort to learn Chinese all these years. She probably hadn’t forgotten that matter.
Come to think of it, who could forget such a great humiliation!
In the original book, this cousin of hers looked down on Gu Jin at first. Later on, she was slapped in the face by Gu Jin and became a loyal fan.
It was a stark contrast to the original host, who had gone all the way and crazily courted death.
As expected, when Ruan Meng saw Gu Yang, she opened her big eyes and asked curiously, “Didn’t they say that Cousin Gu Yang was swapped at birth? The real cousin has already been found, so why is she still with Aunt’s family?”
“Dad, I remember you saying that you have to spend the Chinese New Year with your parents and relatives. Does Cousin Gu Yang not have biological parents?”
The corners of Gu Yang’s mouth twitched. This cousin of hers was indeed good at Chinese. She even learned how to scold people sarcastically.
Everyone’s expressions changed when they heard Ruan Meng’s words.
Ruan Xueling frowned. “We’re Yangyang’s closest family. Why can’t she spend the New Year with us?”
Ruan Bin glanced at Gu Yang coldly and pulled Ruan Meng behind him.
Ruan Zhiying explained to Ruan Xueling, “Little Sister, these two children grew up in Country M. You know that foreigners speak more directly. There’s a cultural difference! She was curious and asked directly. She didn’t mean anything else.”
Since Ruan Zhiying had already said so, it would be unreasonable for Ruan Xueling, an elder, to be calculative since it was the new year.
Ruan Meng looked at Gu Jin again and smiled. “This is my biological cousin, right? She’s much prettier than the fake cousin. There are many idioms about distinguishing the real thing from the fake. I think it’s rather easy to differentiate.
