"Li Man was speechless for a moment, but she admired Gu Ya's inner strength. If it were any other woman, she would have cried her heart out in the restroom after encountering such a situation.
However, Gu Ya had long known what kind of person her husband was, so she wasn't upset. She continued, "You don't know, when I received the phone call this morning, I was almost scared to death. I was really worried that the old man had died. If he really dies, then I'm in trouble."
"What happened?" Li Man asked.
Gu Ya curled her lips and said, "As long as the old man is alive, I can spend money freely. But if he dies now, although his son can't kick me out of the house, the amount of money he can give me will be limited once he takes over the company."
She blamed her own stomach for not cooperating. If only she had given birth to a son earlier.
But fortunately, Gu Ya went for a check-up, and the doctor said she was carrying a baby boy. With a son, she could demand more assets.
Tang Guangyao was a traditional man who favored sons over daughters. When she gave birth to three daughters, Tang Guangyao didn't show any reaction. However, when she told him that she had gone for a check-up and it was a boy, Tang Guangyao immediately said that if it was really a boy, he would buy her a villa.
You see, that's the difference between having a boy and a girl.
A villa for a boy, and nothing for a girl.
Li Man consoled her, saying, "Don't worry, the doctor said he's not in critical condition and can recover."
Gu Ya sighed, "Actually, I know he has written a will, but I don't know what it says. I've talked to his lawyer, but I couldn't get any information. I'm worried that if the old man leaves all his assets to his son, then I'm really done for."
Hearing this, Li Man furrowed her brows in concern and said, "That's a possibility. After all, you and him are a couple who got together later in life. It's normal for him to have such thoughts. You shouldn't spend too extravagantly in your daily life and save some money for yourself, just in case."
"Do you think so too?" Gu Ya asked.
Li Man nodded, "He's not young anymore, and now that this has happened, you should start planning for yourself and the child."
"Don't worry, I will. You don't know, I really serve him like an emperor on normal days. Even his mistresses are chosen by me. Whenever he's happy, he gives me money. You think I really spend it recklessly? Actually, I've been saving it."
Hearing Gu Ya's words, Li Man felt relieved. "That's good!"
As they were talking, they walked towards the hospital room and unexpectedly saw Tang Guangyao's ex-wife.
Tang Guangyao lay in the hospital bed, with Tang Kai standing by his side, and his ex-wife sitting on a chair in front of the bed. The scene looked harmonious, as if they were a family.
On the other hand, Gu Ya, standing at the door of the hospital room, seemed like an outsider.
When Tang Kai saw Gu Ya, he didn't even greet her, as if he didn't regard her highly.
Tang Guangyao's ex-wife was named Liu Meijuan. She had started from scratch with Tang Guangyao, but after he became wealthy, he began to change for the worse, constantly having affairs. Unable to tolerate it, she divorced him."
After the divorce, she took away half of Tang Guangyao's property, while their son stayed with Tang Guangyao.
To be honest, Gu Ya envied Liu Meijuan because she was able to get a large sum of money after divorcing Tang Guangyao. If Gu Ya were to divorce him, she wouldn't get a penny because all of Tang Guangyao's assets were acquired before their marriage.
