Chapter 77 (1/2)
However, Gu Yao asked Ning Fangmei not to call Rong Xiu back. Rong Xiu rejected her on the grounds that the company had something else to do.
After Rong Xiu left, Gu Mian sat on the sofa and thought for a long time. She knew that Rong Xiu would never abandon Gu Yao now, so she could only leave by herself.
Since Gu Mian has decided, she will do it. It seems that Rong Xiu's choice is undoubtedly Gu Yao. Then she has to plan for the future of herself and her children as soon as possible.
After cleaning up the apartment, Gu Mian took a taxi to Xia Xueqin.
Because Gu Mian was separated from Xia Xueqin since childhood, and Gu Mian was so considerate, Xia Xueqin was very happy every time she saw Gu Mian. It was already afternoon when Gu Mian came. Xia Xueqin asked Gu Mian to sit in the living room watching TV and go to the kitchen to cook for Gu Mian.
Gu Mian doesn't want to watch those life dramas. She stands up and walks to the kitchen.
”Mom, if, I mean, if Rong Xiu and I divorced, what would you think?” Gu Mian opened her mouth uneasily. She knew that Xia Xueqin had always felt ashamed of her and had always hoped that she could be happy. She didn't want Xia Xueqin to worry about her.
”Mian Mian, why do you ask? Is there really something wrong with you and Rong Xiu?” Xia Xueqin stopped her action and asked with a worried face.
Gu Mian is silent. It can't be concealed at all. Even if she doesn't tell Xia Xueqin for the moment, the news of their divorce will spread all over the streets sooner or later.
”Gu Yao woke up.” Gu Mian took the initiative to reach out, took Xia Xueqin's hands and said calmly, ”she and Rong Xiu are a couple. I married Rong Xiu at the beginning, which means Gu zhantang and Gu Yao. I'm not Rong Xiu's wife. We got married by contract.”
”What did you say?” Xia Xueqin's eyes immediately turned red.
They, how can Gu zhantang treat Gu Mian like this? She is also his daughter! The palm and back of the hand are all meat. How can Gu zhantang be so cruel.
”Mom, don't worry.” Gu Mian knew that Xia Xueqin would be more sad than herself. ”Listen to me, we can't have any contact with Gu family anymore. Even if it's not Rong Xiu, I can't get close to any man who has a little contact with Gu Yao, let alone Rong Xiu and Gu Yao are still childhood sweethearts.”
Gu Mian is right. Xia Xueqin knows more about the ruthlessness of Gu's family than anyone. If Gu Mian continues to stay with Rong Xiu, when Gu Yao is ready and drives Gu Mian to the door, I'm afraid Gu Mian will be more embarrassed than now.
Xia Xueqin just loves her daughter. Why does even her daughter still endure the humiliation of Ning Fangmei and Gu Yao.
”Mian Mian, what should you do in the future?” Xia Xueqin held back her tears, but the tears still fell uncontrollably.
”I have hands and feet. If I leave home and Rongxiu, we will only live a better life.” Gu Mian put away her heart and said firmly. She encouraged Xia Xueqin and herself with this sentence.
In the evening, Gu Mian returns to Rongxiu's apartment. Rongxiu hasn't come back yet. Gu Mian looks at the time. It's more than seven o'clock. Rongxiu should go to the hospital.
After thinking about it, Gu Mian made Rongxiu a spare ribs soup and put it on the table.
It was almost eleven o'clock when Rong Xiu came back. Gu Mian was lying on the bed in her bedroom. She heard the sound of Rong Xiu opening the door, but she didn't move.
