"No." Fang Yue quickly shook her head, indicating no, she said aggrievedly, "Do you think I wanted to discard my own daughter? It’s not because of your mom? At that time, your mom wanted a son so badly, do you think if she found out I had another daughter, she wouldn’t force you to divorce? Marry someone else?"
"I was also forced with no other choice, I can’t bear it either, my daughter is flesh of my flesh. I care for Mingzhu so much, do you think I would favor sons over daughters?" As Fang Yue wiped her tears, she spoke, her words indeed easy for Gu Hai to believe.
Back then, when mom was alive, she really did tell him repeatedly that if Fang Yue couldn’t give birth to a son, he’d have to marry another woman, saying the Gu Family’s bloodline could not be cut off!
It wasn’t until Fang Yue gave birth to Gu Mingcheng that such things calmed down.
All these years, Fang Yue really has been good to Gu Mingzhu.
Gu Hai’s expression softened a bit.
Fang Yue continued to complain, saying, "I only left after seeing Nianhua picked up by the Xu couple. If Nianhua hadn’t been sent away, how could I have had Mingcheng? I would have been forced by your mom to divorce long ago, wouldn’t I?"
"Let’s not talk about the past. Why did you have to keep this secret and come up with some non-existent thief, isn’t this self-sabotaging?" When Gu Hai thought of this truth being known by Xu Nianhua and them, he felt Fang Yue’s actions were really not good. Thıs content belongs to 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝔫𝔢𝔱
If you’re going to hide it, hide it for a lifetime. This secret couldn’t be kept and it’s a joke.
"Mingzhu, what about you? Why didn’t you tell me about such a big matter?" Gu Hai looked at Gu Mingzhu, his daughter was unscrupulous for marrying Jiang Jing, he asked, "Who helped you with Jian Fang’s matter? The one who called you that day was from a public telephone booth, I specifically asked about it, they said there was a man in black clothes that day."
"It’s, it’s a friend of mine." Gu Mingzhu lowered her gaze, unsure how much Gu Hai had found out, but she thought, with Wolfer’s caution, surely he wouldn’t let anyone see his face.
"What kind of friend, what’s the name? What does he do?" Gu Hai pressed.
Gu Mingzhu changed the subject, saying, "Dad, he’s just my friend, I helped him before, so he’s willing to help me, Jian Fang’s death really has nothing to do with me, I don’t know why it happened so coincidentally, maybe she just lost her mind and missed a step?"
"Dad, you must trust me." Gu Mingzhu explained.
Gu Hai said, "I won’t fuss over past matters, but Xiaojing definitely will, what you need to do now is to get Xiaojing to forgive you, to accept you again. Without the twenty thousand borrowed from the Jiang Family, the Gu Family pharmaceutical factory will definitely have issues, and if the factory has problems, our lives won’t be good."
"Mingzhu, you are so smart, I believe you understand what I mean, right?" Gu Hai’s focused gaze turned to Gu Mingzhu.
Gu Mingzhu smiled bitterly in her heart, after seeing Jiang Jing today, she clearly knew that there was no possibility between Jiang Jing and her anymore.
Jiang Jing’s personality, she knew very well, a person who can’t tolerate a speck of sand.
"Dad, you know very well, Jiang Jing, Jiang Family won’t lend us money anymore." Gu Mingzhu spoke quietly, then she said, "Dad, what do you think of Nianhua’s boyfriend?"
Her sudden change of topic, Gu Hai was silent and didn’t answer, Gu Mingzhu continued, "Mom, what do you think?"
