After divorcing the mute girl, President Gu knelt down and begged for reconciliation.

Chapter 188 Abandoning Husband and Daughter
Within half an hour of Song Jin'an landing in China and taking a taxi back to the villa, Wei Zhou had already appeared in the president's office of Gu's Group.

The voice sounded slightly anxious: "Mr. Gu, Miss Song is back. She's in the villa where you used to live."

"Ms. Song has called a cleaning staff member, and they are cleaning the room. She must be planning to stay for a long time."

The fact that they are permanent residents suggests that they want to live in Haicheng permanently and have no intention of leaving the city, at least not in the short term!

Gu Xijue paused for a moment, his fingertips turning white as he held the pen.

"I see."

"I also heard that Ms. Song will be attending a charity gala in Haicheng City in two days."

Wei Zhou didn't know why, but no matter what he did, he still really enjoyed attending charity galas.

Before the charity gala, Song Jin'an went to Qingcheng Nursing Home to visit the elderly women.

When Grandma discovered that she could speak, she widened her eyes in surprise and stared at her: "Miss, you, you... can speak?"

In recent years, Grandma has been well cared for in the nursing home and looks radiant, and her health has improved a lot.

With tears in her eyes, Song Jin'an nodded: "Yes, I can speak now."

"I can speak not only Chinese, but also English."

She was abroad and was initially mute and unable to speak. She could only hang out with other international students.

One night, she developed a high fever and even thought she was going to die abroad. She never imagined that when she woke up, she would be in the hospital.

She was taken to the emergency room by her roommate and finally got to see a doctor. When she woke up, she wanted to thank her roommate, and she actually did.

Song Jin'an would never forget the expression on her roommate's face at that moment, until her roommate jumped up in the hospital room and shouted, "Song Jin'an, you can speak now!"

She touched her throat, incredulous.

When I first learned to speak, everything I said sounded terrible. I hadn't spoken for twenty years, and for a moment I didn't know what to say.

But after a six-month adaptation period, she not only learned to speak Mandarin, but also quickly learned spoken English because of the language environment.

"Miss, you must have suffered a lot out there."

Grandma only found out six months ago that Gu Xijue and Song Jin'an had divorced three years ago, and that Song Jin'an had even gone abroad.

"No, everything is preordained."

Song Jin'an is very content with everything she has now; she feels that everything is the best arrangement.

Grandma nodded, and Song Jin'an stayed with her at the nursing home for a few days. She only hurriedly took a plane back to Haicheng the day before the charity gala.

This charity gala, which was originally a small event, became the focus of Haicheng because of the strong intervention of the Gu and Jiang families.

Because Gu Jiang and his two arch-rivals were going to attend, the rest of Haicheng's upper class would naturally attend as well. What was originally a charity gala turned into a scene where luxury cars drove into the parking lot one after another, making Song Jin'an's beat-up little car worth 130,000 yuan particularly conspicuous.

But she still has fans supporting her, because her comics have been sold in more than 50 countries at home and abroad in the past four years and translated into 60 or 70 languages.

She's raking in royalties, and she doesn't hide the fact that just a year ago she was a mute disabled person.

Because she returned to Haicheng, where she had lived since childhood, Haicheng invited her to this charity gala for people with disabilities, hoping she would stand on the stage and speak to inspire those with disabilities.

Gu Xijue arrived after Song Jin'an. He usually wouldn't attend these kinds of banquets, but he did this time.

After he entered, Jiang Ciyu, as the vice president of the Jiang family, followed closely behind. Over the past four years, the Gu and Jiang families had been locked in a fierce battle, a fight to the death, with numerous questionable maneuvers. Currently, the two families are still evenly matched. Song Jin'an had already been called over by the organizers. She arrived late and hadn't rehearsed, so fearing something might go wrong, she immediately stepped on stage.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, someone recognized the woman as Song Jin'an, who had been kicked out of the Gu family with nothing four years ago. It was unexpected that she could still manage to get to where she is now.

Soon, everyone began to take their seats.

After we were seated, a leader went up on stage to speak.

After the leaders had finished speaking, the host invited Song Jin'an to come on stage. She looked especially beautiful in her white dress.

Actually, it's more because of the confidence radiating from her face that was absent four years ago.

"Hello everyone, I am Song Jin'an."

As soon as she spoke her first words, everyone's eyes were fixed on her!

Song Jin'an can actually speak?!

Everyone looked on in disbelief, unable to believe that the woman in front of them could actually speak!

Even Gu Xijue's face showed a moved expression. Duan Nanhe, who was sitting next to him, was surprised and felt very frightened. He turned to Gu Xijue sitting next to him and said, "She can talk, did you know that?"

"The little mute boy can talk now?"

Duan Nanhe even thought it must be simultaneous interpretation, after all, the voice was unfamiliar, yet it matched Song Jin'an's face very well.

Because she could speak, it greatly shocked Duan Nanhe, to the point that his jaw almost dropped. Was this still the little mute who had been bullied by Gu Xijue for several years?
When Song Jin'an finished his speech, everyone present waved and cheered, and wave after wave of applause swept over them.

Because Gu Xijue and Jiang Ciyu were in the first row, Song Jin'an could of course see them, but now she felt nothing at all.

After she finished speaking, she sat down to the side, feeling that she had no other thoughts, and soon the dinner party began with free time.

Song Jin'an did not choose to dodge, but when he turned his head, he was grabbed by a pair of large hands and pulled in front of him.

When did you learn to speak?

The man's tone was somewhat inquisitive.

Song Jin'an pursed her lips and smiled brightly: "Ex-husband, it's been a long time."

She said it on purpose, then thought for a moment and said, "About a year ago, I suddenly started talking."

"Ex-husband?"

Gu Xijue leaned closer to her face and spoke slowly, word by word, trying to see through her.

Song Jin'an, however, remained completely unfazed. She smiled and said, "We had a daughter together, and we divorced four years ago. Isn't he my ex-husband?"

Gu Xijue dragged her to a corner, pressed his fingers down on her chin, and forced her to look at him.

"Song Jin'an, it's been four years. You abandoned your husband and daughter. Is it fun?"

He was accusing the woman in front of him, but unexpectedly, Song Jin'an shook off his hand.

Song Jin'an suppressed her anger, but then sneered repeatedly: "President Gu, please get this straight. Four years ago, you were the one who had Wei Zhou deliver the divorce certificate to me. When did it become that I abandoned my husband and daughter?"

"And don't forget, I intended to leave with my daughter, but you took her away before I did!"
