Chapter 142: Apologize Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Seeing Mo Yu come up wrapped in a suit jacket, Su Mei’s originally cold face finally had a good expression.
She pulled Mo Yu to her side and sat down. She instructed Gu Zi to pour a glass of water for Mo Yu. Then, she looked at Gu Lian angrily. “Tell me, why did you get Xiao Yu to apologize to you today?”
When Gu Lian saw Su Mei’s expression, he knew that he was going to be interrogated. He sat opposite them calmly and placed his hands on his knees with a serious expression.
At first glance, he seemed to be here to discuss business, but Gu Lian’s tone was surprisingly soft and gentle.
“I’m sorry. Xiao Yu apologized to me because I made a bet with her at that time. I said that she would definitely stun many people tonight. If I win, she will bow to me and admit her mistake in recognizing her beautiful appearance. If I lose, I will bow to her and apologize. I will also reflect on my exaggeration. Reality proved that I won, but I ignored how much of a blow and damage this bet is to a girl’s pride. Here, I will reflect on my mistake and sincerely apologize to Xiao Yu.”
After Gu Lian finished speaking, he even stood up and bowed to Mo Yu. The space in the nanny van was very large, more than enough for Gu Lian to stand straight.
Looking at her son who was sincerely apologizing and confessing, Su Mei did not know what to say for a moment.
She did not expect the two of them to have such a ridiculous bet. She could only look at her son and daughter-in-law before throwing the decision to Mo Yu. “Xiao Yu, do you want to forgive him?”
Mo Yu was also shocked by Gu Lian’s words. She sighed sincerely in her heart that Gu Lian’s mind was really quick. He had come up with a perfect reason just like that.
Mo Yu looked at Gu Lian with admiration. “Aiya, there’s no need to talk about forgiveness for this kind of thing. This is actually just a little fun between the two of us to strengthen our relationship. Gu Lian is such a good person and dotes on me very much. How can he bear to let me apologize? He even said that he wanted to buy me a big diamond ring, right, Hubby?”
After saying that, Mo Yu even pretended to be innocent and blinked at Gu Lian, trying her best to show what it meant to be arrogant because of favor.
When he heard the first half of the sentence, Gu Lian thought that Mo Yu had finally understood and knew how to cooperate with him. When the second half of the sentence came out, Gu Lian’s face darkened by half.
He should have known that this woman’s sudden obedient cooperation definitely had ulterior motives.
However, at this point, Gu Lian had no choice but to nod and agree to this groundless ‘promise’. There was no choice. If he stood up at this time and said, ‘I didn’t say such a thing’, Su Mei and Gu Jiu could nag him until next year.
Gu Lian finally saw it clearly. Mo Yu’s current status in his parents’ hearts was far higher than his. If not for the fact that the nurturing feelings from the first 25 years were still there, Gu Lian would have suspected that he had been adopted.
With Gu Lian’s apology and promise, Mo Yu finally relaxed. After all, Gu Lian wouldn’t go back on his word, let alone what he had promised in front of his parents.
Along the way, Mo Yu fully displayed her happy-go-lucky nature and coaxed Su Mei and Gu Jiu until they burst with joy. The two of them laughed all the way. The atmosphere in the car was also especially relaxed. Gu Lian could even occasionally interrupt.
Gu Zi suddenly felt a little absent-minded amidst the laughter. In the past jewelry exhibitions, their family had been this lively. Usually, he would be overwrought trying to learn from the side, and Su Mei would supervise him or close her eyes to catch up on sleep from exhaustion. Gu Lian and Gu Lian would discuss the company’s matters at the side. The entire trip was serious and boring.
In the beginning, he also tried to tell jokes to liven up the atmosphere, but often, what he got in return was an even more suffocating silence. Gu Zi could not help but wonder how Mo Yu could easily complete the same thing that he could not.
Gu Zi, who did not give up, said, “Sister Mo Yu told so many interesting stories. I’ll tell you one too. One day, when the matchstick was walking on the road, it suddenly felt that its head was a little itchy, so it scratched and scratched. In the end, it spontaneously combusted and died.”
After Gu Zi finished speaking, the car suddenly fell into a dead silence.
In the end, Mo Yu could not help but laugh awkwardly and help him out.. “Hahahaha, so the match should be judged as suicide or homicide?”
