In Luocheng, around five o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Zichen and Mo Yurou returned to the villa from Yucheng. They also knew about their daughter and Gu Jinmo. Although they both had concerns in their hearts, they could see Xiao Yingxi's face.
He had the same smile as before, so he didn't ask any questions and acquiesced to Xiao Yingxi's choice.
Gu Jinmo didn't expect that Xiao Yingxi's parents didn't ask anything, let alone talk to him alone. During dinner in the evening, they greeted him with extra enthusiasm, which made him feel a little flattered.
Xiao Yingze walked back to the villa after answering the phone. He saw a burst of laughter in the living room, but his mood was a little heavy.
"Yingze, whose call is it that you are avoiding us from answering?"
Xiao Zichen saw Xiao Yingze walking in with a complicated expression and asked tentatively.
Xiao Yingze immediately smiled, hiding his emotions, and then replied casually.
"A friend, what are you talking about? You are so happy."
"Let's talk about what happened when Luo Luo was a child. If you think about it carefully, our girl was a ghost when she was a child. Look at how many bad things she did."
Mo Yurou hugged Xiao Yingxi gently. That was the child she almost lost her life in giving birth to, and she was her most beloved daughter.
After hearing what his mother said, Xiao Yingze came over and said something.
"Mommy, this girl, she relied on everyone to pamper her when she was little. She was so bold. I still remember one time when grandpa was sleeping, she actually shaved off all the beard that grandpa had had for many years."
Talking about the interesting things about Xiao Yingxi's childhood, there are so many treasures in her family. She couldn't help it, no matter who she was, she was pampered by everyone, and no matter how big trouble she got into, there were always people to take care of her.
Xiao Yingxi came back rarely, and she seemed to have recovered from her sadness. It was rare for the family to sit together. After this chat, it was almost ten o'clock in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Yingxi, who was nestled on the sofa, began to yawn. Seeing this, Mo Yurou pinched Xiao Yingxi's cheek and said dotingly.
"Luoluo is all sleepy. It's getting late. Let's all go upstairs and rest."
"Well, I'm so sleepy. Second brother, please carry me upstairs."
Xiao Yingxi said and fell directly into Xiao Yingze's arms. Xiao Yingze also doted on this sister. Without saying a word, he carried Xiao Yingxi up to the second floor. Seeing this, Gu Jinmo was about to follow. At this time, Xiao Zichen
Stopped him.
"Jinmo, wait a moment."
This night, Xiao Yingxi's father rarely spoke. He kept looking at Xiao Yingxi's mother affectionately. Gu Jinmo didn't feel too nervous, but when his name was suddenly called, he suddenly became nervous.
stand up.
Gu Jinmo had just stood up, and then nervously sat back on the sofa. Seeing this, Mo Yurou smiled kindly and said.
"Don't be so nervous, we're just not worried about Luo Luo and want to talk to you."
"I'm not nervous, uncle and aunt, you can ask whatever you want."
Gu Jinmo said he wasn't nervous, but his hands were clenched tightly. Facing two giants in the business world, and also his girlfriend's parents, it was strange that he wasn't nervous.
"Husband, let's talk carefully. I'll go upstairs to accompany my daughter first."
At this time, Mo Yurou stood up, patted Xiao Zichen's hand, and then went upstairs.
All of a sudden, only Gu Jinmo and Xiao Zichen were left in the living room. Without Mo Yurou, the only trace of tenderness on Xiao Zichen's body gradually dissipated.
"I've heard everything about Haishi. Thank you for protecting my daughter."
Xiao Zichen opened his mouth and broke the tranquility of the living room. Upon hearing this, Gu Jinmo sat upright and said.
"Uncle Xiao, you're welcome. This is what I should do."
After saying that, the scene became awkward again, and the two people fell into a brief silence.
"I don't object to the matter between Luoluo and you, but I don't agree with it either."
As soon as Xiao Zichen said this, Gu Jinmo was confused. What did it mean? If he didn't object, it should mean he agreed, but then he said he disagreed.
Seeing Gu Jinmo's confused look, Xiao Zichen continued in a low voice.
"I don't want my daughter to make wrong decisions because of impulse, but I understand my daughter. Now that she has chosen to be with you, no matter how much we talk, it will only make her feel conflicted. So, you and her
We won't pay too much attention to the matter. But I also hope you can figure out one thing. Luoluo agreed to be with you not because he likes you."
This directly poked Gu Jinmo's heart. He had heard such words countless times today, as if they were reminding him that Xiao Yingxi did not love him. This was a direct stab at his heart.
But what could Gu Jinmo say? He had known for a long time that Xiao Yingxi loved someone else, but he just couldn't control his feelings. Even if it was just for a short time, he would be Xiao Yingxi's safe haven.
Thinking of this, Gu Jinmo's expression became a little more serious, and there was a trace of determination in his eyes as he spoke.
"Uncle Xiao, I know everything, but I believe that sincerity is the key to success. If you don't work hard, how will you know whether you can succeed."
After Gu Jinmo finished speaking, Xiao Zichen sighed. Xiao Yingxi is his daughter. He knows better than anyone what kind of character his daughter is. If the obsession in his heart can be let go so easily, then Masnian has been away for three years.
, she won’t just keep waiting.
However, Xiao Zichen also saw Gu Jinmo's attitude and determination. He had no dissatisfaction with the boy. Just as Xiao Yingze thought, Gu Jinmo was indeed a suitable person, but it was a pity that he was destined to be there.
Xiao Zichen didn't say anything more and stood up from the sofa. Seeing this, Gu Jinmo also stood up.
"Young man, thank you very much for staying with Luo Luo when she was in her saddest time. As a father, I only hope that she will be happy throughout her life. I must not embarrass her at any time, do you understand?"
Xiao Zichen's words were very cryptic, but Gu Jinmo understood. In fact, they were almost the same as what Xiao Yingze said. Gu Jinmo nodded without hesitation.
"Uncle Xiao, don't worry, I won't force Luo Luo to do anything. I respect all her decisions."
Xiao Zichen listened, nodded and said softly.
"It's getting late, let's rest."
Gu Jinmo didn't expect the conversation to end so soon. He breathed a sigh of relief. When he saw Xiao Zichen walking upstairs, he immediately followed him. When he reached the door of his bedroom, he hurriedly said something to Xiao Zichen.
"Uncle Xiao, good night."
After saying that, Gu Jinmo turned around and prepared to enter the room. The door opposite opened and Mo Yurou walked out. Gu Jinmo immediately said hello.
"Auntie, is Luoluo sleeping?"
Mo Yurou nodded kindly, closed the door and replied.
"It's time to go to bed. You should go to bed early."
Gu Jinmo glanced at Xiao Yingxi's bedroom. He had seen Mo Yurou closing the door just now. Wasn't it a clear reminder to him not to go to Xiao Yingxi's bedroom at night?
Although he was a little disappointed, Gu Jinmo still nodded politely, said good night, and then entered the guest room.
The next day, Gu Jinmo was awakened by the ringing of his cell phone. He groped around sleepily and finally found his cell phone. However, when he saw the caller ID, he suddenly woke up.
"Mommy, why did you call me so early? I was just going to class."
Gu Jinmo said nervously, but as soon as he finished speaking, his mother's roar came from the other side of the phone.
"Class? Gu Jinmo, I don't know when your school moved to Luo City, ah?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Jinmo was so frightened that he almost rolled off the bed. The next second, he hurriedly said coaxingly.
"Mommy, please don't be angry. Listen to my explanation. I recently took a job, and this time I came to Los Angeles for work. I wasn't afraid that you would be worried, so why didn't I tell you?"
"Humph, work? Bastard, you are still lying to mommy, so tell me, what did you do in the sea market a few days ago? It was also for work."
When Gu Jinmo heard this, he knew that this panic could not be resolved, so he immediately became honest and said with a flattering tone.
"Mommy, since you know everything, why are you still trying to frame me? Mommy, I will go back in two days."
"Baby, tell the truth to mom, have you been with that Miss Xiao recently?"
At this time, Wu Yalan also changed her tone to a gentle tone and asked tentatively.
Gu Jinmo was slightly startled. His mother's attitude changed very quickly, and she didn't even give him any mental preparation.
But this time Gu Jinmo didn't hide anything and answered directly.
"Mommy, Luoluo and I are together. I have been with her these past few days, and now I am at Luoluo's house."
When Wu Yalan heard this, she immediately stood up from the sofa in excitement. Gu Zhenxing, who was standing beside him, saw his wife's changing expressions and curiously put down the newspaper in her hand and read over.
Just listen to Wu Yalan's voice rising.
"Baby, you mean you have already met your parents? So soon? No, the Xiao family is the richest man in Los Angeles. Tell Mommy, have they made any trouble for you?"
He thought he would be scolded by his mother as soon as he said this, but now Wu Yalan's voice on the phone was obviously more excited than angry, and Gu Jinmo was also a little confused.
Gu Jinmo got out of bed, came to the window, and pulled up the curtains. He happened to see Xiao Yingxi's parents walking side by side in the yard, and said with a slight smile on his lips.
"Mommy, Luoluo's family are very easy-going and they all like me."
When Wu Yalan heard this, she immediately said proudly.
"That's true, and you don't have to look at how good my baby is. Baby, if you hear what you say, good things are coming for you and Miss Xiao. How about your dad and I take some time to go to Los Angeles in the next few days?"
Wu Yalan simply said that the wind was like the rain. She had guarded Xiao Yingxi like a thief half a month ago, but now she was fine. Ever since she knew Xiao Yingxi's identity, she wanted to tie up her son and send him to bed.
Gu Jinmo heard what his mother said and hurriedly stopped him.
"Mommy, please don't mess around. Luoluo and I are just together. There is a reason for coming to Luocheng this time. It's not what you think. You can stay in Huacheng honestly and don't give me any random ideas.
Already."
After hearing what Gu Jinmo said, Wu Yalan finally calmed down a little. Then she remembered what happened with the Zhou family, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke.
"Baby, Zhou Chuyou came to our house yesterday, and she asked me to thank you."
When he heard Zhou Chuyou, Gu Jinmo frowned subconsciously, but when he thought of Zhou's real estate, he was still concerned.
"How is his family doing now?"
"The company was saved, but so many people at the dinner party knew that he had offended the Yaoyuan Group. Many companies have stopped cooperating with Zhou Real Estate, but there was no movement from the Yaoyuan Group."
After hearing this, Gu Jinmo breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, this matter was caused by him, and now this result is considered the best. He said softly.
"It's okay."
Here, Wu Yalan changed her tone and brought the topic to Xiao Yingxi.
"Baby, when will you come back? Then bring Miss Xiao back to have a meal together."
"Okay, Mommy, what are you in a hurry for?"
Gu Jinmo also wanted to take Xiao Yingxi home, but he also knew that Xiao Yingxi would not be willing to go home with him to meet his parents in a short period of time.
While talking, there was a knock on the bedroom door, and Xiao Yingxi's voice came from the door.
"Gu Jinmo, are you up?"
When Gu Jinmo heard this, he covered his phone and replied to the door.
"Get up, I'll be out right away."
Then he spoke into the phone.
"Mommy, no more chatting, I'm going downstairs."
After saying that, Gu Jinmo hurriedly hung up the phone, then walked to the door and opened it. Xiao Yingxi hadn't left yet.
"Morning, are you still used to sleeping last night?"
Xiao Yingxi asked with concern, Gu Jinmo stretched and said.
"Sleep until dawn."
Xiao Yingxi smiled slightly after hearing this, and then said something else.
"I'm going to go to the city center later. Do you want to come with me?"
"Of course, wait for me for a while."
With that said, Gu Jinmo didn't close the door, turned around and entered the bathroom. He quickly washed up, changed into more casual clothes, found a hat to wear, and then walked out of the room.
Xiao Yingxi was sitting alone in the restaurant downstairs. Xiao Yingze had gone to the company early in the morning. Xiao Yingxi's parents had finished eating and were walking outside. When she saw Gu Jinmo coming downstairs, Xiao Yingxi greeted.
"Come over for breakfast."
The breakfast was very rich, with both Chinese and Western food. Gu Jinmo once again lamented what a truly top-class wealthy family is.
After breakfast, Xiao Yingxi took Gu Jinmo to the nearby garage. There were seven or eight cars parked inside, including an oversized RV.
Xiao Yingxi walked to an SUV and was about to get in. When she saw Gu Jinmo looking in front of a red supercar, she said something casually.
"That belongs to my second brother. My dad gave it to him for his birthday the year before last. He drove it once and it was too ostentatious. It has been parked in the garage since then."
Gu Jinmo nodded and sighed.
"With the five limited-edition supercars in the world, how can we not be ostentatious? I have always heard that one was bought by someone from our country, but I didn't expect that it actually belongs to your second brother."
Seeing Gu Jinmo standing next to the car and looking back and forth, Xiao Yingxi said something.
"Do you like it so much? How about we drive this car out and I'll look for the car keys."
With that said, Xiao Yingxi walked to the cupboard nearby, but Gu Jinmo immediately stopped her.
"Luoluo, don't. Let's drive the car just now. Just take a look at this kind of car."
There are only five top-level supercars in the world. Each one costs tens of millions. If it gets damaged, it will only cost money to repair it. Gu Jinmo still rationally stops Xiao Yingxi.
