Cheating on her husband's mistress? I seduced her third son.

Chapter 72 Gu Ruyan, the show is about to begin...

Just as Gu Chengyan was about to open the door, Su Yutang suddenly called out to him.

"etc!"

He turned around and saw that she had her eyes downcast and her voice was very low.

"I'll drive it."

Gu Chengyan frowned and asked worriedly, "Aren't you afraid of my mother?"

Su Yutang wiped away her tears and said sensibly, "If... if in the future I am fortunate enough to be with one of you, she is, after all, your mother, my elder, and perhaps one day, she will also be my mother-in-law."

"Even if... even if she hit me and humiliated me before, as a junior, I cannot neglect the proper etiquette. I don't want my rudeness to make things more difficult for you, or to make her... dislike me even more..."

After saying that, she stopped looking at their complicated gazes, took a deep breath, and walked step by step toward the heavy door.

The three brothers, Gu Chengyan, Gu Huaiye, and Gu Xizhou, followed her almost simultaneously, keeping a respectful distance.

Gu Chengyan and Gu Huaiye exchanged a glance, both seeing the same shock in each other's eyes.

This woman, despite being wronged, still forced herself to appear sensible and polite, which made them feel a mix of bitterness, heartache, and deep emotion.

Gu Chengyan: [My Yutang is so sensible! So sensible it breaks my heart. I swear, I will protect her for the rest of my life, do everything I can to be good to her, and never let her suffer even the slightest injustice again!]

Gu Huaiye: [I'm doomed! This woman can be incredibly seductive, yet she can also melt my heart! I absolutely adore her! What should I do? I'm completely doomed for her!]

Gu Xizhou walked on the far side. His feelings were not as complicated and turbulent as his two older brothers'; he only had a pure and calm sense of protection.

Honey, don't be afraid! I'll be there for you, silently watching over and protecting you!

Soon, Su Yutang arrived at the door.

Her hand rested on the doorknob, her heart pounding wildly in her chest.

Gu Ruyan...

She silently murmured the name in her heart, her lips almost unable to suppress a smile.

I'm really looking forward to seeing your expression when you see me.

The show is about to begin...

A moment later, she slowly turned the doorknob and opened the door.

Outside.

Gu Ruyan's well-maintained face showed a hint of anxiety.

However, as the door slowly opened, a familiar face that she never expected to appear at this moment and in this place clearly came into view.

Gu Ruyan's expression changed visibly, from confusion to stunned silence, and finally to disbelief and a hint of anger at being offended.

"you?"

Her voice rose in surprise.

"What are you doing here? This is my son's house! How could you have opened the door?"

She couldn't comprehend the scene before her, her gaze fixed intently on Su Yutang's face.

Su Yutang raised an eyebrow quickly at her gaze, a provocative smile playing on her lips.

But her voice carried just the right amount of fear and apprehension.

"Aunt Gu...Hello, your son invited me here."

"Aunt Gu? Am I that old?"

Gu Ruyan instantly bristled, her face turning ashen, and she pointed at Su Yutang's nose, sternly scolding her.

"Who gave you permission to call me Aunt Gu? Who do you think you are? Do you think you're worthy of entering my Gu family home? How could my son possibly invite you as a guest?"

She became increasingly angry as she spoke, and raised her hand to push Su Yutang.

This was the moment Su Yutang had been waiting for.

Seeing that Gu Ruyan's hand was about to touch her, a wicked smile immediately appeared in her eyes. The timing was perfect. Just as the other's fingertips were about to touch her clothes, she suddenly fell backward and let out a shrill scream.

"ah--"

She pretended that Gu Ruyan had pushed her down hard, and her body fell straight backward.

The three brothers behind him, Gu Chengyan, Gu Huaiye, and Gu Xizhou, changed their expressions drastically and rushed forward almost simultaneously.

The three brothers caught her at the same time, preventing her from falling.

Su Yutang leaned into their arms, her eyes instantly reddening, looking as if she had suffered a great injustice, trembling with fear.

Gu Xizhou had long since reached his limit of tolerance.

His face was as cold as ice, and the pressure around him was frighteningly low. He released Su Yutang, took a step forward, and shoved the still stunned Gu Ruyan away.

Gu Ruyan was pushed so hard that she staggered back several steps and almost fell.

Gu Xizhou stood in front of Su Yutang, his face cold and his voice icy.

"Who gave you permission to touch her?"

Neither Gu Chengyan nor Gu Huaiye expected that Gu Xizhou, who was usually taciturn, would directly push his mother.

But at that moment, they couldn't think about anything else; their minds were completely focused on the person in their arms who had been wronged.

Gu Chengyan held Su Yutang tightly, and when he looked up at Gu Ruyan, his tone was full of reproach and disappointment.

"Mom, how could you push Yutang? I specially invited her here. How could you start cursing and then push her? That's too much! Where is your manners as an elder?"

Gu Huaiye was also very angry, and his tone was very sharp.

"Mom, you're so old, why are you still so short-tempered? No wonder Tangtang is so afraid of you. Are you going through menopause and having hormonal imbalances? I'll take you to the hospital for a proper check-up tomorrow. Don't lose your temper at home."

After regaining her footing, Gu Ruyan not only failed to calm down, but became even more astonished, and even felt a ridiculous dizziness.

What exactly is going on?

Su Yutang, the bitch she thought had been driven away and could be manipulated at will, not only appeared in her son's villa, but also seemed to be treated as an honored guest.

What she couldn't understand even more was that her third son, Gu Xizhou, had actually dared to push her just now in order to protect this woman.

Now, her eldest son, Gu Chengyan, and second son, Gu Huaiye, who had always placed high hopes on her and respected her greatly, were speaking to her in such a forceful and even accusatory tone, protecting Su Yutang at every turn.

Betrayal! This is blatant betrayal!

A mixture of anger at being defied, panic at having her authority challenged, and a deep-seated loathing and jealousy of Su Yutang instantly overwhelmed Gu Ruyan's rationality.

She was trembling with anger, her meticulously manicured nails pointing straight at Su Yutang.

"Mom didn't even touch her! She deliberately fell down! You...you talk to your own mother like this for such a despicable woman?"

Her gaze immediately turned to Gu Xizhou, her eyes filled with a fierce intensity, carrying the most vicious curse a mother could have on her unfilial son.

"And you! Gu Xizhou! You unfilial beast! How dare you push me just now? I am your mother who gave you life and raised you! How dare you? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning and dying a horrible death?"

She screamed and tried to regain control through filial piety and curses.
