On the first day of the wedding, some people came out to make trouble.
It's not anyone else, but Father Gu.
Even though I was put in a sack and beaten up yesterday, I didn't know that I needed to reflect on it.
But Gu Ruojiao knew why he was in such a hurry.
Huo Jingmo controlled the largest canal gang in Huashangtan, so most of the river freight and port unloading were under his control.
You can't do business if goods can't be transported and unloaded.
It can be said that Huo Jingmo has strangled his life.
Gu Ruojiao had not originally planned to deal with Gu's father so quickly. She wanted him to collapse in despair.
She wanted him to try what he had endured before.
But now that Huo Jingmo has taken action, she can only add fuel to the fire.
"Jingmo, I want to meet him."
Huo Jingmo was a little surprised: "Are you soft-hearted?"
"No, but there are some things that I should face on my own. I don't want to be just a woman who hides behind you and accepts your protection."
Of course it is good for Little Rose to be self-reliant.
But Huo Jingmo wanted her to rely on him even more.
Don't think about anything, can't you just accept his protection?!
Huo Jingmo couldn't help but feel violent and irritable in his heart.
But he didn't show any emotion towards Gu Ruojiao.
"Okay, I'll let someone else arrange it. Do you need me to be by your side?"
"No, I can do that."
Huo Jingmo didn't ask any more questions.
But before leaving, his eyes were a little gloomy.
It didn't take long for Gu's father to be allowed in.
When he saw the officers guarding Gu Ruojiao, the skin on his face twitched a few times.
But fortunately, Huo Jingmo is not here, so everything is easier to talk about.
"Ruoruo, my good boy."
He no longer looked after Gu Ruojiao in that giving and condescending manner as before.
Instead, he showed a hint of flattery unnaturally.
Gu Ruojiao looked at Father Gu indifferently: "Father, what can I do for you?"
Seeing her cold attitude, Father Gu was a little surprised.
He knows this daughter best.
There is no point in being timid. A louder voice will scare you to the point of being unable to move. As long as Huo Jingmo is not around, it is not up to him to control it.
However, the woman in front of him was different from the timid and submissive one in his memory.
At this moment, Father Gu began to doubt whether things would go as smoothly as he thought.
"Ruoruo, I am your father after all, but you didn't tell me about such a big thing like your marriage!"
He tried to scare her like he did before, first scolding and scaring her, and then with a little kindness, he would make her obey the arrangements.
However, the tricks that worked so well in the past are useless today.
He saw his well-behaved and docile daughter in his memory, looking at him with a disdainful look at a stranger.
"Father? So you treat me as your daughter? I thought you only treated me as a commodity."
Her face was full of sarcasm, because what she said was too straightforward, which made Father Gu feel a little embarrassed.
"You, what are you talking about...is this your attitude when talking to your father?"
"Of course not." Gu Ruojiao sneered, "Because you are not worthy of being my father at all."
"You bastard..."
"Father, I respect myself, so I call you father."
The implication is that I hope you won't be so shameless.
When Father Gu's expression changed, he raised his hand to hit him as usual.
But as soon as he made a move, the two officers guarding Gu Ruojiao raised their guns.
Father Gu was startled and took a few steps back: "Don't, don't shoot..."
