Gu Tingchuan put his arm around Hai Yao's shoulders and walked towards the old man, "Grandpa, this is Hai Yao, your granddaughter-in-law."
As he said that, he introduced everyone in the family to Haiyao one by one, including his second uncle, his second aunt, and Gu Tingchuan's father. Gu Tingchuan paused for a few seconds and said, "This is today's birthday boy. Next to him is..."
Gu Tingchuan suddenly stopped talking, which made Mu Yuehua particularly embarrassed, especially when Gu Tingchuan raised the corners of his mouth with a sarcastic expression, and then said, "I really don't know how to introduce you."
When Father Gu heard this, he put down his chopsticks with a sullen and stern look on his face, "What kind of attitude do you have!"
Gu Tingchuan raised the corners of his lips, "Then tell me, how should I introduce to my wife the person next to you who has not officially become your wife after waiting for more than ten years?"
"you……"
Father Gu was so angry that he turned livid and was about to explode when he heard the old man's persuasive voice, "Okay, okay, you two, father and son, quarrel whenever they meet, and you can sit down and have a meal peacefully, can't you?"
As he said that, he pointed the finger at Father Gu, "It's the first time my granddaughter-in-law came to the door, and you made a face, who can you show? Besides, if Kawako can come back today, isn't it because he has the filial piety to come back and live your life for you? It's all good.
, you must drive away my grandson, right?"
After the old man scolded him, Father Gu couldn't help but said in a low voice, "He didn't come to give me a life, he clearly came to make me angry."
"Okay! Don't say anything else. Come on, come on, come sit here with grandpa."
The old man called Haiyao to sit down. The old man was in a happy mood and asked Aunt Zhang to prepare the dishes and chopsticks. Haiyao was smiling, but her face became paler.
Just then, when Mu Yuehua turned around, Lu Haiyao felt a chill coming from the soles of her feet, making her hands and feet feel cold.
Looking at the woman's familiar appearance, Haiyao thought bitterly that she had gotten better and better over the years.
Look at her well-maintained skin...
Look at her graceful appearance...
If she was still dragging their three children with her and following that man with a dim future, could she still be like this?
Maybe your face has already been covered with wrinkles, maybe your head has already sprouted white hair...
She knew that the woman was as surprised as she was because of today's occasion.
At the same time, she didn't dare to recognize Hai Yao, and even more so if Hai Yao took one more look at her, he would recognize that she was the mother who cruelly abandoned them all those years ago.
Sitting next to her grandpa, he kept asking her what she liked, what major she studied in university, etc...
Hai Yao answered with a smile on her face. She seemed to be chatting seriously with her grandfather. In fact, her heart had already flown to nowhere. She secretly glanced at Mu Yuehua who was sitting opposite and saw that her face was pale and she didn't dare to do anything.
Look towards Hai Yao.
Heart, very disappointed.
She originally thought that maybe her mother had her own reasons for leaving...
When they meet again, maybe she will repent, she will feel that she has not fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother, and she will ask Hai Yao to forgive her...
But, what now?
She really saw her, but she was so secretive that she wished she couldn't recognize her.
Hai Yao withdrew her gaze, tried her best to hide her emotions, and smiled at her grandfather.
Since Mu Yuehua has no intention of recognizing her as her daughter, she just regards her as his mother and has left long ago...
Suddenly, grandpa asked, "Haiyao, take some time some other time and ask your parents to come too. We have to meet. That silly boy from Chuanzi has no manners and doesn't do anything. I know he wants to surprise me."
, but you still have to take your family’s feelings into consideration. Let’s make an appointment another day to meet and discuss the wedding.”
When Haiyao heard this, she didn't know how to answer. Then she heard her grandfather say, "What do your parents do?"
Hai Yao felt slightly bitter in her heart, "My dad... My dad hasn't done anything now, my mom..."
His lips curved in pain, "She's gone."
Clang…
When Mu Yuehua heard this, her heart trembled, and the bowl in her hand fell on the dining table, making a loud noise and attracting strange looks from everyone.
She forced out a smile out of embarrassment and said quickly, "I didn't hold on tightly, my hand slipped."
The old man clearly didn't want to waste time on Mu Yuehua, so he turned to Hai Yao and sighed, "Then you can ask your father to come and sit at home some other time. I heard from Aunt Zhang that your father was also a soldier before."
Maybe I even know him, hahaha."
Hai Yao tried her best to smile and was worried about how to answer. Gu Tingchuan said first, "Grandpa, Hai Yao and I are not planning to hold a wedding. Holding a wedding is tiring, so don't worry about the wedding."
, As for Haiyao’s father, he has been feeling unwell recently. After this period of time, I will arrange for you to meet."
When the old man heard this, he said regretfully, "Well, the thinking of today's young people is different from that of grandpa's generation. As long as grandpa looks good to you, I will feel satisfied."
Hai Yao felt extremely miserable after eating this meal.
When leaving, Hai Yao couldn't help but glance at Mu Yuehua. Mu Yuehua turned her face to one side and was unwilling to look at her again.
Meeting like this today is indeed awkward.
She never expected that after her mother left, she would actually come to the Gu family. From Gu Tingchuan's words just now, she knew that Mu Yuehua's current status was still embarrassing and she had not married into the Gu family.
But she came to this home as Gu Tingchuan's wife.
She suddenly felt a headache. How should she get along with him in the future?
She looked at Gu Tingchuan who was driving next to her. The street lights on the road were very dim, and the car was flickering on and off, hiding his face in the darkness. She could not see his expression clearly and wondered what he was thinking in his heart.
?
As if he felt that she was looking at him, Gu Tingchuan looked at her, then reached over, rubbed her face with the palm of his hand, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Aren't you annoying..."
She wanted to ask, but paused, but he seemed to understand her thoughts and replied, "Well, we don't need to talk about her."
When Lu Haiyao heard this, her heart was blocked. The relationship between Gu Tingchuan and Mu Yuehua was so tense...
What would he do if he knew that Mu Yuehua was his mother?
Hai Yao moved her gaze to the window and remained silent until he reached out to hold her hand and asked with concern, "Why are your hands so cold?"
"Feeling cold? Do you want to turn up the heating?"
Haiyao didn't answer, she was so depressed that she didn't want to speak. She didn't know how things could become like this.
Even though there is no relationship between her and Gu Tingchuan.
But now that the relationship has become so awkward, how will she face it in the future?
When she got home, after taking a shower, she lay on the bed unhappy and wanted to sleep, but Gu Tingchuan hugged her from behind, and then kissed her passionately on her neck, caressing her skin inch by inch, making her hoarse.
He said, "Honey, we haven't had sex for a long time."
Hai Yao was in no mood and refused, "I don't want to."
"I think."
She originally felt her heart was in a mess, but now she just felt annoyed by him, and her temper came out, "Gu Tingchuan, I told you I don't want to do it tonight."
Unexpectedly, tonight he seemed unable to listen to a word she said, and completely ignored her refusal, turning over and pressing her down.
"Gu Tingchuan!!"
"Let me go, let me go..."
But today, for some reason, he couldn't hear her protest at all and insisted on doing what he wanted to do, even if it meant hurting her.
One night, she was tortured by him three times, and tears filled the corners of her eyes.
Until he was really tired and lay on her body, Haiyao no longer had the energy to lose her temper.
Silently pushing him away, she grabbed a meager blanket and wrapped it around her body, heading towards the bathroom.
She stayed in the bathroom for a long time, and there was no movement outside. Haiyao thought he was asleep. Unexpectedly, when she went out, she saw him smoking, sitting on the sofa, smoking. When she came out, he didn't
Looking at her, Haiyao silently walked to the bed and once again retracted herself to the bed.
He didn't get up on the bed for a long, long time.
She even went out for a while, but as long as he left, she couldn't sleep.
I'm obviously very tired, but I can't sleep.
It seems that you have become accustomed to having someone hug you from behind and hold you tightly in his arms.
For the first time, Haiyao felt that it was very cold sleeping on this big bed because she was alone.
No matter how tightly she wrapped herself in the quilt, it was so cold that her hands and feet were trembling, so cold that her internal organs seemed to be contracting together with force, so tired...
Just when she was tossing and turning unable to sleep, the sound of a car sounded downstairs.
Then there was the sound of going upstairs, and then he came behind her and whispered, "Honey, are you asleep?"
She ignored him, angry that he was so rude//violent for no reason, angry that he had been away for so long...
"Baby, all the pharmacies outside are closed. I only bought this ointment. The doctor said you can apply it there and it will reduce the pain a little. I know it was my fault just now and I shouldn't have hurt you. Please stop being angry, okay?
?”
"You didn't say anything and I just wiped it on for you?"
As he spoke, he was about to lift the quilt and help her apply ointment. Hai Yao quickly pushed him away and glared at him angrily. Her face was slightly hot. He actually ran out to buy this kind of medicine?
Gu Tingchuan knew that she was pretending to sleep. Seeing that she finally sat up, he tilted his head and looked at her, "Really don't want to wipe it? It will be more comfortable if my husband helps you wipe it."
Although it was clearly an irregularity, Hai Yao was still amused by him.
There was a slight arc on his lips. As soon as he saw the smile on her face again, he felt relieved. He stepped forward and took her into his arms, "Smiled? Doesn't it mean you're not angry anymore when you smile?"
"Thank God, you're not angry anymore, otherwise it would be even harder for me to touch you next time."
He said with a smile, causing Hai Yao to punch him.
Haiyao let him hold her, feeling the warmth and feeling a little wet in her eyes for some reason.
She leaned into his arms and felt that his arms were so warm, so warm that she wanted to cry.
She was suddenly afraid of his absence. Without him by her side, it would be difficult for her to sleep, especially when it was so cold in winter...
"Gu Tingchuan..."
"Um?"
"Can you please not let me sleep alone in the future? I'm afraid of the cold."
