100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 154: A Deal
Chapter 154: Chapter 154: A Deal
As soon as she saw Gong Xiaoqiao, Yuan Minmei immediately taunted, "Well, look who it is! Aren’t you the one who’s too proud to care about property? So why rush over in such a hurry now? Let me tell you, it’s no use coming here! It’s never going to be your turn anyway!"
Gong Zhiming pushed his wife to silence her and then walked over with a smile, "Xiaoqiao, after all, you’re still my daughter, and when it comes to property, of course, you deserve your share."
"Dad, what are you talking about? Why should our Gong family’s money go to an outsider?" Gong Hannian couldn’t understand her father at all.
Yuan Minmei was also getting anxious, "Gong Zhiming! What was it you promised me back then?"
Not only Gong Hannian and Yuan Minmei were surprised, but Gong Xiaoqiao was even more astonished. She couldn’t believe these words were coming from Gong Zhiming’s mouth, unless there was some sort of plot involved.
As expected, Gong Zhiming added, "However, you have to agree to one thing for me."
Gong Xiaoqiao sneered inwardly, already prepared, ready to ignore whatever Gong Zhiming might say.
But, when she actually heard Gong Zhiming’s request, Gong Xiaoqiao was somewhat surprised.
"As long as you willingly marry Gu Hangshen, everything’s negotiable."
Gong Hannian was the first to shout out in agitation, "Dad! How can you say such a thing? Gu Hangshen is mine!"
"Shut up! What’s the use of raising you all these years if you can’t even tie down a man!" Gong Zhiming scolded angrily.
"Mom..." Gong Hannian looked at Yuan Minmei for help, who hesitated and ultimately said nothing.
"Mom, do you agree with Dad doing this too?" Gong Hannian couldn’t believe her eyes looking at her mother.
She had told her parents about Gong Xiaoqiao ensnaring Gu Hangshen, intending for them to devise a solution for her, not expecting that her father would ultimately choose Gong Xiaoqiao to replace her!
Yuan Minmei pulled Gong Hannian aside and whispered, "Hannian, if you could win back Gu Hangshen’s heart, why would Mom let that cheap girl benefit? But you have to understand, the Gong family owes its status today to the Gu family, and once the Gu family’s support is gone, the Gong family is finished... you know... the company’s been struggling lately..."
She was helpless, how could she foresee that Gu Hangshen would take an interest in... that dead girl, Gong Xiaoqiao...
"I don’t care! Gu Hangshen is mine! I will never give him up to anyone else, especially Gong Xiaoqiao! Mom, how can you do this to me? Have you ever considered how I feel?" Gong Hannian said emotionally.
"Daughter, Mom is also forced to this! Would I want that woman’s daughter to pick up such a great bargain? Just make a bit more effort, and if you get Gu Hangshen in your grasp, won’t there be no more problems?" Yuan Minmei said helplessly.
"I will!" Gong Hannian glared at Gong Xiaoqiao with envy.
"Impossible."
On the other hand, Gong Xiaoqiao answered without hesitation.
Gong Zhiming wasn’t in a hurry, "Xiaoqiao, don’t rush to answer me! Go out with Dad and have a talk?"
"I have nothing to discuss with you! And don’t call yourself my father!" Gong Xiaoqiao said with disgust.
Gong Zhiming smiled, "Hehe, nothing to discuss? What about the matter regarding your mother?"
Gong Xiaoqiao immediately looked at him angrily, "What are you planning to do now? My mother is already dead, and you still won’t leave her alone?"
In the end, Gong Xiaoqiao still followed Gong Zhiming to a small garden behind the hospital.
"Xiaoqiao, I know you hate me, and I’m not going to talk about family affection with you, but to propose a deal!"
Gong Zhiming looked at her with a determined expression, "As long as you agree to marry Gu Hangshen, I’ll publicly acknowledge your identity and also relocate your mother’s grave to the Gong family’s ancestral tomb."
