The first meeting between Ms. Gu Changge and Peng Yuchen broke up quickly, but she did not tell her daughter the news immediately.
Because she had decided to make Gu Caiwei change her mind and give up being an inexplicable trainee, but she had other plans.
First of all, Gu Caiwei seems to be deeply addicted to Peng Yuchen. If forced to do so, there will inevitably be a direct conflict between mother and daughter, which she does not want to see.
Secondly, Xiaowei's birthday is coming soon. This is her eighteenth-year-old coming-of-age ceremony. It is of great significance and she attaches great importance to it.
Thirdly, she had previously felt that Lin Yi's attitude on this matter was very suspicious, and she planned to test Lin Yi's true thoughts.
So she appeared in front of Lin Yi.
This was in Zhao Mingcheng's office. When Lin entered the door and saw only Ms. Gu Changge sitting there, he shouted in his heart that Zhao was cheating on him.
He called me here in a hurry, without saying hello in advance, and actually pretended to deliver the imperial edict on behalf of Queen Mother Gu?
Lao Zhao, your character is broken!
Ms. Gu Changge seemed to know what he was thinking: "I asked Teacher Zhao to invite you, Lin Yi, I have something to talk to you about."
Lin Yi didn't ask why he didn't ask Gu Caiwei to come with him, nor did he ask where Lao Zhao had gone. He was already prepared to stand at attention when he was beaten:
"You say."
Gu Changge got straight to the point: "I have already met that Peng Yuchen. I heard from Xiaowei that you met her together during the National Day, right?"
Lin Yi secretly guessed that this meeting was probably not pleasant.
"Yes, a Golden Arch store on Hefang Street."
"Xiaowei also said that you supported her to become a trainee. I want to know what you really think?"
Lin Yi tried his best to minimize his influence: "Aunt Gu, this matter is actually very simple. I only encouraged Gu Caiwei after she made up her mind."
"But I want to say that no matter what kind of dreams Gu Caiwei has or what kind of life she wants to pursue, I will support her without hesitation."
When Gu Changge heard this, he found that Lin Yi was still standing there with his hands down, looking like he was being trained, so he pointed to the empty chair next to him:
"Sit down and talk."
Of course, Lin Yi didn't like to stand for a long time. After sitting down, Gu Changge continued:
"Lin Yi, you respect and support Xiaowei's ideals. I appreciate your big heart. It shows that you did not receive an education in Linzhongbai."
"But have you ever thought about whether this so-called trainee is a really suitable way out for her? Is your encouragement to her really good for her?"
Lin Yi understood. He wanted to persuade Gu Caiwei to turn back. Was Ms. Gu Changge afraid that a conflict would break out between mother and daughter if she spoke directly?
However, this purpose is probably doomed to fail.
Frankly speaking, if he had not known the "ending" ten years later in advance, Lin Yi would not have been sure whether Peng Yuchen would be able to succeed or whether the big pie he had drawn could be realized.
Even with such uncertainty, he still encouraged Gu Caiwei in his previous life. In addition to his undeclared love, he also had the young man's infinite longing for a better future.
Lin Yi sorted out his thoughts: "Aunt Gu, I really can't guarantee what you said. I'm afraid she can define it herself."
"I know that your experience, knowledge, and connections far exceed mine, but I don't think you can give Gu Caiwei a 100% sure future."
Gu Changge interrupted: "But I can ensure that I give her the best. I can't give her a hundred points, so I will give her ninety-nine points, ninety-eight points, and one more point is one point."
Lin Yi did not take this emotional card: "I have never doubted your love for Gu Caiwei."
"But I want to remind you that Gu Caiwei cannot always walk on the path you envisioned for her. Sooner or later, she will live according to her own wishes."
"I'm afraid you'll have to accept this."
Ms. Gu Changge felt a little irritated. She was not here to listen to an underage boy talking about what motherhood is.
"Lin Yi, let me speak more clearly. I am very dissatisfied that Peng Yuchen's grassroots team can realize Xiaowei's dream."
"If Xiaowei fails after working hard for a long time, it will undoubtedly be a major setback in her life, and this detour can still be avoided now."
"If you really want to be responsible for Xiaowei's future, you should not blindly obey and indulge her, but should prevent her from making willful decisions like I did."
For a moment, Gu Changge almost thought that he could support their relationship in exchange for Lin Yi taking his side on this issue.
But she gave up immediately. One is one, the other is two. It is the behavior of people like Peng Yuchen to trick children, and Gu Changge disdains it.
"obedience……"
Lin Yi smiled. Ms. Gu Changge seemed to have misunderstood their relationship. But she couldn't be blamed for this. After all, in everyone's eyes, when she was with Gu Caiwei, she was the "higher" and Gu Caiwei was the "higher".
That’s right.”
Lin Yi did not beat around the bush and formally made his position clear:
"Aunt Gu, the mutual understanding and support between Gu Caiwei and I may exceed your imagination, so I'm sorry that this matter is difficult to follow."
Gu Changge was greatly disappointed. One or two of them were so disobedient. Could it be because of their rebellious stage?
Originally, there was no need to say more at this point, but Lin Yi's attitude was difficult for Gu Changge to understand, so she said a few more words:
"Lin Yi, there is one more thing I want to remind you."
"I only said half of what I said just now. Have you ever thought about how the two of you will get along in the future and how your relationship with her will develop if Xiaowei really succeeds in taking this path?"
Still talking about it here.
"Aunt Gu, I understand what you want to say is that the two of us will be even more different by then, and no one will bless or support us."
"We will only get isolation and opposition from everyone, until I can't stand the mental pressure and torture anymore and leave voluntarily."
"Is not it?"
Gu Changge was really curious: "Do you think this is a kind of fulfillment and a proof of your feelings for Xiaowei?"
Complete?
Lin Yi thought to himself that it would be quite appropriate to say "Thirty years to Hedong and thirty years to Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty" at this time.
Of course he is not so good.
"I still say the same thing, Aunt Gu. The mutual understanding and support between Gu Caiwei and I may exceed your imagination."
"You not only underestimated your daughter, but you also underestimated me."
"This time, not only will I be worthy of her, but I will also protect her."
Gu Changge didn't know what Lin Yi could rely on, so she didn't try to persuade him, but her evaluation of Lin Yi had already been lowered a lot.
Many people have had this kind of blind self-confidence in their youth, and it will not be long before it is crushed to pieces.
