An Unfinished Divorce Feast
Chapter 110 He Sees Su Mo Too Simple
Chapter 110 He Sees Su Mo Too Simple
Old man Gu looked at Gu Shaoyan, his face was indeed bruised and there were scars, and he didn't seem to be in good spirits.
Sighing, Mr. Gu nodded and said, "Don't get out of bed, just sit on the bed."
Gu Shaoyan smiled, leaned against the bed obediently, and waited until the old man sat down on the sofa beside the bed, then looked at the old man and said, "Grandpa, my injury is not serious, I will be fine after a few days of rest .”
Gu Shaoyan is not so stupid as to say Gu Zecheng's fault in front of the old man, because he is very aware of the difference in status between himself and Gu Zecheng in the old man's mind. He would be even more disgusted to see him, an illegitimate child who was not recognized by Gu Chongchuan in the first place.
What's more, Gu Wanyue also said just now that his injury is not serious, so why would he want to offend Gu Wanyue.
Regarding Gu Shaoyan's words, the old man nodded in satisfaction and asked, "Why did Ah Cheng beat you?"
Zhao Li, who was standing by the side, was still muttering in her heart because of her son's words, but when she saw that the old man was satisfied, she immediately felt better.
Gu Shaoyan smiled awkwardly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I went to my elder brother's office to discuss the acquisition with him, but my elder brother happened to be away, and when I was about to leave, my sister-in-law walked in, and I told her Said a few words."
Sister-in-law? !
Not only Zhao Li, but even Gu Wanyue scolded Su Mo severely a hundred times in her heart.
"Sister-in-law?! The old man couldn't help but sneered, "You call it quite fluently, don't you?" "
Gu Shaoyan's heart "thumped", but he smiled calmly on his face, "Su Mo is married to eldest brother now, I don't want to admit this fact, and there is nothing I can do."
The implication is that Gu Zecheng forced him to call it that.
The old man sneered again, his brows were sharp and his eyes were like torches, "It seems that you all knew about it a long time ago, so you just kept it from me."
Zhao Li observed the old man's face, and seeing the opportunity came, she immediately said wronged and wronged, "Master, don't be angry, Shaoyan and I have no other choice."
Sitting next to the old man, Gu Wanyue glanced at Zhao Li fiercely and viciously, and dared to say in front of her face that her brother threatened their mother and son. It seemed that Zhao Li was really impatient.
In the eyes of the old man, although Gu Shaoyan is the seed of the Gu family, he has never met Zhao Li. What's more, Zhao Li is obviously blaming Gu Zecheng, the successor he cultivated.
Therefore, Zhao Li's words immediately made the old man's face darken, and his voice was covered with displeasure, "If it wasn't for your mother and son not treating Su Mo well and forcing her to divorce, how could Ah Cheng have the chance to marry? Su Mo, now, don't push everything on Ah Cheng, and wake up yourself."
Listening to the old man's words, Gu Wanyue couldn't help but raise her lips and smile.
In the old man's heart, only Gu Zecheng and her are the most important. Gu Shaoyan and Zhao Li's mother and son are nothing.
At this moment, Zhao Li's heart immediately plummeted like a skydive, and she didn't dare to say a word, but Gu Shaoyan's expression didn't change, and he continued to smile gently, "Yes, grandpa is right, we did it wrong It's right, big brother feels sorry for Su Mo and beat me up."
"Okay, take good care of your wounds, and go back to work in the company after you get out of the hospital."
When Zhao Li heard this, her heart rose rapidly like a rocket, and she was overjoyed and said, "Master, can Shaoyan restore the position of general manager?"
The old man glanced at Zhao Li, "The position of the general manager of the headquarters is so important, can I give this position to outsiders?"
"Thank you, grandpa. I will definitely return to work in the company as soon as possible." Anyway, Gu Shaoyan is also the second young master of the Gu family. After returning to the Gu family, he received a lot of elite education and served as the general manager of Shihua Headquarters for three years. Yes, there is still a limit to advancing and retreating.
Gu Wanyue frowned and gave Gu Shaoyan and Zhao Li a sideways look, but she didn't say anything. She never asked about the company's affairs. If she said something now, wouldn't she smear her face?
The old man nodded, stood up from the sofa, said nothing more, looked at Gu Wanyue beside him and said, "Xiaoyue, let's go."
"Okay, grandpa." Gu Wanyue looked at Gu Shaoyan and Zhao Li, smiled inscrutably, then took old man Gu's arm and walked out of the ward together.
After watching Gu Wanyue and the old man disappear, Zhao Li sat down in front of Gu Shaoyan's hospital bed, and said, "Son, this time, you can't do it because of Su Mo."
"Mom, I get it. From now on, in front of grandpa, you should try to talk as little as possible." Before Zhao Li finished speaking, Gu Shaoyan interrupted her impatiently.
"Why, even you are beginning to dislike your mother?"
Gu Shaoyan sighed, smiled softly, and comforted Zhao Li, "Mom, no, it's just that you also know how important our mother and son are in Grandpa's heart. If you say more and more mistakes, it will prevent Gu Wanyue from hating you."
"Okay, from now on, Mom will listen to you." Zhao Li nodded and said, "However, you have to seize this opportunity, even if you can't change the fact that Gu Zecheng is Shihua's heir, you still have to let him be with the old man. Shed a layer of skin."
Gu Shaoyan frowned slightly, "I know, don't worry about it."
After work, Gu Zecheng took Su Mo directly to the Gu family mansion.
The anxiety in Su Mo's heart was indescribable.
Not because of anything else, but because she knew very well that in the entire Gu family, except for Gu Zecheng, no one else would approve of her being with Gu Zecheng.
With her, Gu Zecheng bears the pressure of the whole family.
She didn't know how long Gu Zecheng could last under this kind of pressure, but she knew that a marriage that was not recognized and blessed by her family would be difficult to live happily ever after.
Seeing Su Mo who was downcast and thinking all the way, Gu Zecheng put his arm around her and raised her chin with the other, making her look at him.
The four eyes met, and in Gu Zecheng's deep black eyes, the clear light shone with incomparably firm belief, as well as a heart-warming tenderness and pity.
"Are you afraid? Hmm~" he asked her, the distance was close at hand, and the warm breath sprayed on her forehead, and the breath was familiar.
Gu Zecheng in front of her was too gentle and beautiful, like a dream, which made Su Mo feel unreal, but she tried her best to keep her mind clear, so she replied truthfully, "Yes, I'm afraid."
Actually, what she shouldn't be afraid of, at most, is to divorce Gu Zecheng, and never have anything to do with him again.
But, why, in this situation, at this moment, she didn't want to leave him, but she just indulged in the tenderness and love Gu Zecheng gave her forever, and she didn't want to come out for the rest of her life.
However, Gu Zecheng raised his lips and smiled, full of elegance, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Gu Zecheng clearly knew what he was about to face, because he knew the difficulties and obstacles ahead, so he was not afraid.
Seeing Gu Zecheng's relaxed and alluring smile, and hearing his words of gentle pampering that made her rely on him, Su Mo frowned slightly, lowered her head, and leaned into Gu Zecheng's neck.
No matter how credible Gu Zecheng's words are at this time, she clearly knows that she has no choice but to face it.
Soon, the car drove into the Gu family's mansion.
The Gu family mansion is no stranger to Su Mo. When he was with Gu Shaoyan before, he came here twice. In those two times, he only saw Mr. Gu, but never met Gu Zecheng and Gu Wanyue.
The car slowly stopped in front of the main building of the mansion, and immediately a servant came up to open the car door for Su Mo and Gu Zecheng.
After getting out of the car, Gu Zecheng went around to Su Mo's side, took her hand naturally, interlocked his fingers, looked at her, raised his lips and smiled, his eyes were full of comfort and encouragement.
Su Mo smiled back, without timidity or embarrassment, and walked in with Gu Zecheng in a graceful manner.
In the hall, besides Mr. Gu, Gu Wanyue and the servants, there was also Ji Yining. Everyone saw Gu Zecheng and Su Mo walking in with their fingers interlocked. The hall that was talking and laughing instantly became quiet. He heard the footsteps of Gu Zecheng and Su Mo.
Ji Yining's eyes fell on Gu Zecheng's and Su Mo's interlocking fingers. Seeing their loving appearance, the smiling face immediately dimmed, pursing the corners of her lips, and lowered her head.
Old Master Gu and Gu Wanyue looked at Su Mo who walked over with Luo Luodafang and Gu Zecheng, their complexions quickly darkened, and were clouded.
"Grandpa, sister."
"Grandpa, sister." Su Mo called after Gu Zecheng, with a faint and decent smile on his face, neither humble nor overbearing, just right.
As the former No.1 girl in Shennan City, Su Mo can use all speech, actions and expressions freely on any occasion.
Gu Zecheng raised his lips and glanced at Su Mo beside him with a slight smile. The tenderness and pampering in his eyes couldn't be more obvious, and then he introduced to the old man in a light and cheerful voice, "Grandpa, this is my wife, your granddaughter-in-law, Su Mo. foam."
Gu Wanyue squinted at Su Mo with resentful eyes, and a mocking sneer rose from the corner of her mouth.
From childhood to adulthood, Su Mo has been a vixen-like existence, as long as she has a charming eyes like silk, she can make a man fascinated.
Old Master Gu glanced at Gu Zecheng with calm and prestige eyes, and finally fell on Su Mo.
He didn't expect that Gu Zecheng would bring Su Mo to him so frankly, and he would take the initiative so quickly.
Standing up from the sofa without any expression, he took the crutch beside him. The old man didn't say anything to Gu Zecheng, but turned around to go upstairs, and then said in a deep voice, "Su Mo, follow me upstairs to the study."
Gu Zecheng held Su Mo's hand tightly in vain, looked at Su Mo with a questioning look, and told her that if she didn't want to go, she didn't have to.
Su Mo smiled lightly, let go of Gu Zecheng's hand, and followed the old man upstairs.
"I'll accompany you." With that said, Gu Zecheng grabbed Su Mo again and walked upstairs with her.
Hearing Gu Zecheng's voice, the old man couldn't help but sneered, stopped in his tracks, but didn't look back, "Ah Cheng, are you still afraid that grandpa will fail if he eats Su Mo?"
Gu Zecheng frowned, "Grandpa, can you guarantee that you won't embarrass Su Mo?"
"Acheng, don't go too far." Gu Wanyue really couldn't stand it anymore, at this moment, she wished she could cut off Su Mo's hand that Gu Zecheng was holding.
However, Mr. Gu was much calmer, he just let out a breath, and said in a neutral voice, "Okay, I won't embarrass Su Mo."
Both Gu Wanyue and Ji Yining looked at Mr. Gu in surprise, not understanding what kind of medicine he was selling in this gourd.
Su Mo looked at Gu Zecheng, smiled lightly, said nothing, took his hand out of Gu Zecheng's warm palm, and followed the old man up to the second floor.
After entering the old man's study on the second floor, the servant closed the door and guarded the door.
The old man walked to the french windows and turned his back to Su Mo. Although he was more than seventy years old, his back was still upright and strong.
Su Mo stood five steps behind the old man, with a faint smile on his face all the time, "Grandpa Gu, if you have anything to say, just say it, I'll listen carefully."
Because he knew that Old Man Gu didn't like him, Su Mo consciously called Old Man Gu "Grandpa Gu" instead of the intimate "Grandpa".
Mr. Gu stared out the window and smiled. In fact, he didn't hate Su Mo. On the contrary, he had always had a good impression of Su Mo. Therefore, he never objected to Su Mo's marriage to Gu Shaoyan.
"Su Mo, I know that you and Acheng have known each other since we were young, and we have a good relationship, but after Acheng left Shennan City, you lost contact, and you also chose Shaoyan again, and married Shaoyan Lay the child." The old man paved the way for what he was about to say, simple and clear, with a gentle voice, without the slightest anger.
Su Mo knew that this was not what the old man wanted to express, so he smiled lightly and listened quietly to the old man's continuation.
"You and Shaoyan are divorced. Actually, I am against it, but Shaoyan has done so many things that I'm sorry to you. It's normal for you to leave. I have nothing to say, let alone blame you."
"I know that when you left, you left the house without any compensation."
Su Mo twitched the corners of his mouth, Mr. Gu was really clever, and before he was about to make a move, he had to calm people down properly.
"It's wrong to say less and do it wrong. I, the grandfather, apologize to you on his behalf. I will give you everything you deserve."
Su Mo smiled, respectful but neither humble nor overbearing, "Grandpa Gu, when Gu Shaoyan and I divorced, we had already reached an agreement. I left the house, and he gave me a divorce ceremony. If he did it, I will do it too." arrive."
Mr. Gu frowned slightly, and slowly turned to look at Su Mo. The Su Mo in front of him was generous and decent, and he was indeed a real lady.
"Su Mo, you are a sensible person. You have been married to Shaoyan for three years. You should probably know what I care most about."
"Now, you have two options."
Su Mo looked at Old Master Gu with clear eyes, waiting for him to continue.
"The first way is to accept my compensation for Shaoyan and divorce Ah Cheng, so that no outsiders will know that you and Ah Cheng were married."
"The second way, you can continue to be with A Cheng, but I will sever ties with A Cheng, and A Cheng will no longer be my grandson of Gu Qiheng."
"Which way, you choose yourself?"
Su Mo smiled lightly, and even said without any hesitation, "Grandpa Gu, I think you shouldn't tell me these words, but you should tell Gu Zecheng, no matter what his choice is, I will accept it. "
Except for the time when Gu Zecheng knelt in front of her to propose marriage, after that, the right to choose was no longer in her hands.
Whether to leave or stay depends on Gu Zecheng alone.
He has to stick to it, and she will accompany him.
If he wants to let go, she won't pester her.
Old man Gu smiled, he didn't expect Su Mo to be so smart, and with a faint smile, he pushed all the problems to him and Gu Zecheng, as if the sky had fallen and had nothing to do with her.
It seems that he took Su Mo too simply.
When the door was opened, Gu Zecheng actually stood outside the door, with a trace of uneasiness evident in his eyes.
Su Mo was surprised, when will Gu Zecheng be so anxious!
Seeing Su Mo coming out of the study with a smile on his face, Gu Zecheng heaved a sigh of relief, took a step forward and took her hand, and asked with undisguised concern, "Did Grandpa really not embarrass you?"
Su Mo looked at Gu Zecheng, who suddenly moved her to such a mess that she didn't know what to do.
After staring blankly at Gu Zecheng for a while, Su Mo shook his head and smiled, but was so moved that he couldn't say anything.
Gu Zecheng was completely relieved, and then smiled, "Let's go back to Xiaodie Mountain."
"Ah."
Holding Su Mo by the hand, Gu Zecheng went downstairs as if there was no one there, and then walked out the gate.
Gu Wanyue, who was still in the hall, saw Gu Zecheng who was about to leave with big strides, her eyes turned red immediately.
"Acheng, do you really want to be with the enemy who set our mother on fire for the rest of his life?" Gu Wanyue's voice was not only angry, but also resentment that had never been seen before.
Hearing Gu Wanyue's words, it not only completely stunned Mr. Gu who just appeared at the stairs, but also stunned everyone present, unable to digest the meaning of Gu Wanyue's words at all.
Su Mo frowned, and stopped walking.
Every word Gu Wanyue uttered was like a poisonous needle piercing into Su Mo's body fiercely, causing her to be so painful that she couldn't breathe in an instant, and she was about to convulse.
Tears fell suddenly without warning.
Turning his head slowly, Su Mo looked at Gu Zecheng's somewhat blurred handsome side face, and wanted to take his hand out of his hand and run away.
However, Gu Zecheng tightened his grip, not giving her a chance to escape.
Gu Zecheng's handsome brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes were narrowed, thoughts were surging in his mind, and he was fighting the hardest and most difficult struggle with himself.
However, after only a moment of struggle, Gu Zecheng made a decision, and the extremely heavy and apologetic words slowly overflowed from his throat.
"Sister, I'm sorry!"
After saying that, Gu Zecheng didn't hesitate any more, took Su Mo by his hand, and strode away.
Su Mo looked at Gu Zecheng's blurred side face, tears welling up even more frantically.
Gu Zecheng, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for making you betray everyone for me.
I'm sorry for making you work so hard for me.
I'm sorry for making you suffer so much for me.
Seeing the two figures in her line of sight with the quick news, Gu Wanyue's hatred reached an unprecedented peak, she even pinched her fingernails into her flesh, and blood dripped from her palm, but she didn't feel any pain at all.
"Sister Yue, your hand"
Ji Yining on the side noticed the bright liquid dripping from Gu Wanyue's palm, and screamed in panic.
Everyone, come to your senses.
Old Master Gu looked at Gu Wanyue's hand, immediately frowned in distress, and scolded the servants in the hall, "Why are you still standing there, you still haven't treated Xiaoyue's wound."
Gu Wanyue clenched her fist tightly, until the medicine box brought by the servant and Mr. Gu stood in front of her and held her hand, then she gritted her teeth and slowly let go.
Seeing the deep bloodstains on Gu Wanyue's palm pinched by nails, the old man frowned in distress.
"Xiaoyue, why are you so stupid."
Gu Wanyue looked at the old man, tears of grievance and helplessness fell all of a sudden, she threw herself into the old man's arms, and said in grief, "Grandpa, I hate Su Mo, I hate Su Mo, she was the one who set the fire back then, yes She set fire to my mother and burned me all over."
The old man hugged Gu Wanyue, his heart ached and shocked to the point that he couldn't say a word.
"Grandpa, you must let Ah Cheng leave Su Mo, she is our enemy, she cannot be the hostess of our Gu family."
"Okay, okay, grandpa promises you, grandpa promises you, he will definitely let Ah Cheng leave Su Mo."
Ji Yining on the side looked at the scene in front of him and listened to the conversation between Mr. Gu and Gu Wanyue. While he was shocked, his heart gradually became clearer.
Even if one day Gu Zecheng will marry her, is marrying a man who doesn't love her really the happiness she wants?
After the wound on Gu Wanyue's hand was treated, and everyone else was reprimanded, Mr. Gu sighed and asked, "Xiaoyue, you told me back then that the fire was just an accident, no one did it on purpose. Set fire, why now, you say that Su Mo set the fire?"
Mr. Gu was also puzzled why Su Mo would set fire to him. According to his understanding and judgment of Su Mo, Su Mo would not be such a cruel and merciless person.
Gu Wanyue's tears of grievance were still rolling in her eyes, and her face was full of forbearance and helplessness, "Grandpa, it's not that I deliberately wanted to hide it from everyone, it's just that Ah Cheng begged me not to tell everyone the truth."
"He begged me not to tell everyone the truth. He would leave Su Mo and never have any contact with her again."
Old Master Gu frowned. He knew how much Gu Wanyue cared about Gu Zecheng's younger brother, and believed that Gu Wanyue would indeed conceal the truth for Gu Zecheng's sake.
"I know that at that time, Ah Cheng liked Su Mo very much. If I told the truth and brought Su Mo to justice, then Ah Cheng would definitely hate me, and it would definitely be very painful." Gu Wanyue said. Tears fell again, "So, I have been hiding the truth from everyone, and then I went abroad with Ah Cheng."
Mr. Gu sighed deeply. Compared to Su Mo, he certainly believed in his beloved granddaughter, but he was not a fool.
"Xiao Yue, you saw Su Mo set the fire with your own eyes?"
(End of this chapter)
Old man Gu looked at Gu Shaoyan, his face was indeed bruised and there were scars, and he didn't seem to be in good spirits.
Sighing, Mr. Gu nodded and said, "Don't get out of bed, just sit on the bed."
Gu Shaoyan smiled, leaned against the bed obediently, and waited until the old man sat down on the sofa beside the bed, then looked at the old man and said, "Grandpa, my injury is not serious, I will be fine after a few days of rest .”
Gu Shaoyan is not so stupid as to say Gu Zecheng's fault in front of the old man, because he is very aware of the difference in status between himself and Gu Zecheng in the old man's mind.

Hearing Gu Zecheng's voice, the old man couldn't help but sneered, stopped in his tracks, but didn't look back, "Ah Cheng, are you still afraid that grandpa will fail if he eats Su Mo?"
Gu Zecheng frowned, "Grandpa, can you guarantee that you won't embarrass Su Mo?"
"Acheng, don't go too far." Gu Wanyue really couldn't stand it anymore, at this moment, she wished she could cut off Su Mo's hand that Gu Zecheng was holding.
However, Mr. Gu was much calmer, he just let out a breath, and said in a neutral voice, "Okay, I won't embarrass Su Mo."
Both Gu Wanyue and Ji Yining looked at Mr. Gu in surprise, not understanding what kind of medicine he was selling in this gourd.
Su Mo looked at Gu Zecheng, smiled lightly, said nothing, took his hand out of Gu Zecheng's warm palm, and followed the old man up to the second floor.
After entering the old man's study on the second floor, the servant closed the door and guarded the door.
The old man walked to the french windows and turned his back to Su Mo. Although he was more than seventy years old, his back was still upright and strong.
Su Mo stood five steps behind the old man, with a faint smile on his face all the time, "Grandpa Gu, if you have anything to say, just say it, I'll listen carefully."
Because he knew that Old Man Gu didn't like him, Su Mo consciously called Old Man Gu "Grandpa Gu" instead of the intimate "Grandpa".
Mr. Gu stared out the window and smiled. In fact, he didn't hate Su Mo. On the contrary, he had always had a good impression of Su Mo. Therefore, he never objected to Su Mo's marriage to Gu Shaoyan.
"Su Mo, I know that you and Acheng have known each other since we were young, and we have a good relationship, but after Acheng left Shennan City, you lost contact, and you also chose Shaoyan again, and married Shaoyan Lay the child." The old man paved the way for what he was about to say, simple and clear, with a gentle voice, without the slightest anger.
Su Mo knew that this was not what the old man wanted to express, so he smiled lightly and listened quietly to the old man's continuation.
"You and Shaoyan are divorced. Actually, I am against it, but Shaoyan has done so many things that I'm sorry to you. It's normal for you to leave. I have nothing to say, let alone blame you."
"I know that when you left, you left the house without any compensation."
Su Mo twitched the corners of his mouth, Mr. Gu was really clever, and before he was about to make a move, he had to calm people down properly.
"It's wrong to say less and do it wrong. I, the grandfather, apologize to you on his behalf. I will give you everything you deserve."
Su Mo smiled, respectful but neither humble nor overbearing, "Grandpa Gu, when Gu Shaoyan and I divorced, we had already reached an agreement. I left the house, and he gave me a divorce ceremony. If he did it, I will do it too." arrive."
Mr. Gu frowned slightly, and slowly turned to look at Su Mo. The Su Mo in front of him was generous and decent, and he was indeed a real lady.
"Su Mo, you are a sensible person. You have been married to Shaoyan for three years. You should probably know what I care most about."
"Now, you have two options."
Su Mo looked at Old Master Gu with clear eyes, waiting for him to continue.
"The first way is to accept my compensation for Shaoyan and divorce Ah Cheng, so that no outsiders will know that you and Ah Cheng were married."
"The second way, you can continue to be with A Cheng, but I will sever ties with A Cheng, and A Cheng will no longer be my grandson of Gu Qiheng."
"Which way, you choose yourself?"
Su Mo smiled lightly, and even said without any hesitation, "Grandpa Gu, I think you shouldn't tell me these words, but you should tell Gu Zecheng, no matter what his choice is, I will accept it. "
Except for the time when Gu Zecheng knelt in front of her to propose marriage, after that, the right to choose was no longer in her hands.
Whether to leave or stay depends on Gu Zecheng alone.
He has to stick to it, and she will accompany him.
If he wants to let go, she won't pester her.
Old man Gu smiled, he didn't expect Su Mo to be so smart, and with a faint smile, he pushed all the problems to him and Gu Zecheng, as if the sky had fallen and had nothing to do with her.
It seems that he took Su Mo too simply.
When the door was opened, Gu Zecheng actually stood outside the door, with a trace of uneasiness evident in his eyes.
Su Mo was surprised, when will Gu Zecheng be so anxious!
Seeing Su Mo coming out of the study with a smile on his face, Gu Zecheng heaved a sigh of relief, took a step forward and took her hand, and asked with undisguised concern, "Did Grandpa really not embarrass you?"
Su Mo looked at Gu Zecheng, who suddenly moved her to such a mess that she didn't know what to do.
After staring blankly at Gu Zecheng for a while, Su Mo shook his head and smiled, but was so moved that he couldn't say anything.
Gu Zecheng was completely relieved, and then smiled, "Let's go back to Xiaodie Mountain."
"Ah."
Holding Su Mo by the hand, Gu Zecheng went downstairs as if there was no one there, and then walked out the gate.
Gu Wanyue, who was still in the hall, saw Gu Zecheng who was about to leave with big strides, her eyes turned red immediately.
"Acheng, do you really want to be with the enemy who set our mother on fire for the rest of his life?" Gu Wanyue's voice was not only angry, but also resentment that had never been seen before.
Hearing Gu Wanyue's words, it not only completely stunned Mr. Gu who just appeared at the stairs, but also stunned everyone present, unable to digest the meaning of Gu Wanyue's words at all.
Su Mo frowned, and stopped walking.
Every word Gu Wanyue uttered was like a poisonous needle piercing into Su Mo's body fiercely, causing her to be so painful that she couldn't breathe in an instant, and she was about to convulse.
Tears fell suddenly without warning.
Turning his head slowly, Su Mo looked at Gu Zecheng's somewhat blurred handsome side face, and wanted to take his hand out of his hand and run away.
However, Gu Zecheng tightened his grip, not giving her a chance to escape.
Gu Zecheng's handsome brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes were narrowed, thoughts were surging in his mind, and he was fighting the hardest and most difficult struggle with himself.
However, after only a moment of struggle, Gu Zecheng made a decision, and the extremely heavy and apologetic words slowly overflowed from his throat.
"Sister, I'm sorry!"
After saying that, Gu Zecheng didn't hesitate any more, took Su Mo by his hand, and strode away.
Su Mo looked at Gu Zecheng's blurred side face, tears welling up even more frantically.
Gu Zecheng, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for making you betray everyone for me.
I'm sorry for making you work so hard for me.
I'm sorry for making you suffer so much for me.
Seeing the two figures in her line of sight with the quick news, Gu Wanyue's hatred reached an unprecedented peak, she even pinched her fingernails into her flesh, and blood dripped from her palm, but she didn't feel any pain at all.
"Sister Yue, your hand"
Ji Yining on the side noticed the bright liquid dripping from Gu Wanyue's palm, and screamed in panic.
Everyone, come to your senses.
Old Master Gu looked at Gu Wanyue's hand, immediately frowned in distress, and scolded the servants in the hall, "Why are you still standing there, you still haven't treated Xiaoyue's wound."
Gu Wanyue clenched her fist tightly, until the medicine box brought by the servant and Mr. Gu stood in front of her and held her hand, then she gritted her teeth and slowly let go.
Seeing the deep bloodstains on Gu Wanyue's palm pinched by nails, the old man frowned in distress.
"Xiaoyue, why are you so stupid."
Gu Wanyue looked at the old man, tears of grievance and helplessness fell all of a sudden, she threw herself into the old man's arms, and said in grief, "Grandpa, I hate Su Mo, I hate Su Mo, she was the one who set the fire back then, yes She set fire to my mother and burned me all over."
The old man hugged Gu Wanyue, his heart ached and shocked to the point that he couldn't say a word.
"Grandpa, you must let Ah Cheng leave Su Mo, she is our enemy, she cannot be the hostess of our Gu family."
"Okay, okay, grandpa promises you, grandpa promises you, he will definitely let Ah Cheng leave Su Mo."
Ji Yining on the side looked at the scene in front of him and listened to the conversation between Mr. Gu and Gu Wanyue. While he was shocked, his heart gradually became clearer.
Even if one day Gu Zecheng will marry her, is marrying a man who doesn't love her really the happiness she wants?
After the wound on Gu Wanyue's hand was treated, and everyone else was reprimanded, Mr. Gu sighed and asked, "Xiaoyue, you told me back then that the fire was just an accident, no one did it on purpose. Set fire, why now, you say that Su Mo set the fire?"
Mr. Gu was also puzzled why Su Mo would set fire to him. According to his understanding and judgment of Su Mo, Su Mo would not be such a cruel and merciless person.
Gu Wanyue's tears of grievance were still rolling in her eyes, and her face was full of forbearance and helplessness, "Grandpa, it's not that I deliberately wanted to hide it from everyone, it's just that Ah Cheng begged me not to tell everyone the truth."
"He begged me not to tell everyone the truth. He would leave Su Mo and never have any contact with her again."
Old Master Gu frowned. He knew how much Gu Wanyue cared about Gu Zecheng's younger brother, and believed that Gu Wanyue would indeed conceal the truth for Gu Zecheng's sake.
"I know that at that time, Ah Cheng liked Su Mo very much. If I told the truth and brought Su Mo to justice, then Ah Cheng would definitely hate me, and it would definitely be very painful." Gu Wanyue said. Tears fell again, "So, I have been hiding the truth from everyone, and then I went abroad with Ah Cheng."
Mr. Gu sighed deeply. Compared to Su Mo, he certainly believed in his beloved granddaughter, but he was not a fool.
"Xiao Yue, you saw Su Mo set the fire with your own eyes?"
