100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 151: It Hit Home

Gu Hangshen’s mother quickly stepped forward to intercept, "Child, what are you doing! Let’s talk this out nicely!"

"Does he speak any human language?" Gu Hangshen’s father panted heavily. freёnovelkiss.com

Gu Hangshen’s mother soothed him and had him sit down, looking helplessly at Gu Hangshen who remained silent and resolute, "Xiao Hang, what on earth happened? How could you treat Xiaoqiao like this... Your ages..."

Gu Hangshen, pricked in the heart by his mother’s mention of age, paused for a while, then said, "I am only eight years older than Xiaoqiao."

Gu Hangshen’s father glared at him, "I am telling you, don’t even think about it. Unless I die, I will never allow her to enter our Gu family’s door! Our Gu Family only recognizes Hannian as a daughter-in-law!"

Gu Hangshen wanted to speak again, but his mother shook her head at him, signalling him not to speak.

Gu Hangshen’s father, in the midst of his fury, simply couldn’t hear anything.

"Child, don’t be so agitated! Xiao Hang has been obedient since he was young, he has never caused us worry. Since he has made this decision, there must be his reasons. Wait until you’ve calmed down to listen to his explanation properly, don’t make this a dispute between father and son."

"He is bewitched, how can he still recognize me as his father?" Gu Hangshen’s father scoffed coldly.

After calming one, Gu Hangshen’s mother then tried to persuade the other, "Xiao Hang, don’t rush into a decision, think it over carefully, ah!"

Gu Hangshen: "Mom, I have thought it through very clearly."

"Did you hear that? Did you hear that? He is beyond help! A fine man ruined by a woman! How... how can I face the Wen Ren family!" Gu Hangshen’s father was extremely emotional.

"Ah, you child..." Gu Hangshen’s mother sighed, "Xiao Hang, don’t blame your dad and me, though we are not your biological parents, we have always only wanted the best for you, not to harm you, isn’t that so?"

Gu Hangshen clenched his fists slightly, "I understand. Because I respect you, because of the kindness you’ve shown raising me, I have never gone against your decisions, but this time..."

Gu Hangshen’s mother nodded, "Mom knows you are an obedient child, so there must be a reason for this. I also know a bit about Xiaoqiao’s situation; she’s also a pitiful person, and I can see she is not a bad person.

But her status is somewhat awkward after all, if you marry her, you will likely encounter many obstacles. Not to mention the company, the family, and the public opinion, would Xiaoqiao even agree to be with you?"

Gu Hangshen felt a pang in his heart, his mother’s words were piercingly accurate.

...

The Gong family’s old mansion.

"Grandpa, I am leaving."

Grandfather Gong turned his back, not looking at her.

Seeing this, Gong Xiaoqiao resignedly circled back, "Grandpa, please don’t be mad!"

Grandfather Gong looked at her angrily, "Who was it that said they didn’t care what others thought and would always be with Grandpa! Don’t think I don’t know, you just don’t want to bother Grandpa with people’s hassle. I’m in good health! I won’t be so easily angered to death by those people!"

"Grandpa, what are you talking about! I’m really not leaving because I’m concerned about that, I’m just going back to work. I’ve already told the director I’ll be back today, everyone is waiting for me. And I’m not never coming back. It’s not far, just in City A. I promise I’ll come to see you at least once a week, okay?" Gong Xiaoqiao reassured him, holding the old man’s hand.

"A young swallow must eventually fly from its nest," Grandfather Gong said wistfully.

"Xiaoqiao will often return to the nest, in front of you I’ll always be the child who never grows up!"

The only person she truly wanted to protect now was her grandfather.
