Chapter 53 Take Back Everything That Belongs to Me

It was nearing evening and the sky began to drizzle.

Ye zhiqiao sat on the ground with her arms around her knees and leaned her head against the tombstone as if she was lying in her mother's arms to absorb the faint warmth.

"Mom, I got kicked out again. I'm useless, right?"

She spoke with a strong nasal tone, but no one was asking her any more questions at this time. Only the breeze in the mountains answered her.

"I don't remember that a long time ago, before ye yiyu was born and my father married his stepmother, did he love me too? I used to have some secret expectations, and I think he would feel a little guilty about leaving me alone abroad for the past five years."

"I would be very happy if he was willing to show a little courteous concern for me just because he was sorry. However, my hopes always seem to fail again and again."

Ye zhiqiao stretched out her hand and caught the drizzle. She watched them gradually merge into transparent raindrops. Then, they slowly slid down from her palm, leaving only the coldness in her heart.

"Mom, I'm really desperate this time. I won't have any more expectations for the word father. If I did something bad, would you blame me?"

"I only have you. You must not blame me."

After signing the last document, gu mohan subconsciously looked at the clock on the wall and realized that it was already past six in the afternoon.

He closed his eyes to rest for a while, then called his secretary to explain the arrangements for tomorrow.

"By the way, how's mengxing group?"

The secretary recalled the information she received and replied, "Everything is fine for the time being. Miss ye managed mengxing group very well."

"Yeah." Gu mohan waved his secretary down and stared at the phone on the table.

It seems that after the press conference, he has been entangled in affairs. He and ye zhiqiao have never met again.

Thinking of this, gu mohan smiled and dialed the phone.

It took him a long time to get through to the stereo.

"What are you doing, taking so long to answer?" Gu mohan asked casually.

"Um... Nothing. What's the matter?"

The sound of the phone covered up ye zhiqiao's hoarse voice. Gu mohan did not recognize her emotions and then asked, "Do you have time for dinner?"

"I... I am now..."

Ye zhiqiao hesitated, and gu mohan interrupted directly, "And little treasure has been shouting these days. I don't think you have much time to spend with her. Let's go home after dinner."

"Okay." Thinking of little treasure, ye zhiqiao did not hesitate.

"Where is it? I'll pick you up first."

"Songhe garden."

As gu mohan drove along the road, the more he thought about it, the more strange it became. Songhe garden is a cemetery. Why would ye zhiqiao go there?

Ye zhiqiao's family... By the way, her mother is now ye zhiqiao's stepmother, and she should be her biological mother in songhe garden.

Gu mohan glanced at the rearview mirror and turned the steering wheel several times. He drove to the flower shop that he had seen by chance on the road.

Ye zhiqiao felt a figure shaking from the side. She rubbed her crying eyes and looked over. She saw gu mohan in a straight suit walking slowly with a bunch of chrysanthemums.

She stood up and smiled.

Gu mohan saw what was wrong with her, but did not say anything. He bent down and placed the bouquet in front of the tombstone, then bowed respectfully.

"Thank you." Ye zhiqiao's thank you sounded slightly moved.

Only then did gu mohan turn around to face her and ask, "Why are you here all of a sudden?"

"I miss mom." Ye zhiqiao did not say all the reasons.

Gu mohan caught a glimpse of her coat from the corner of his eye, and there was already a large water mark on her shoulder. He remembered that when he came over earlier, he saw her as if she were an abandoned child, huddled up and sat beside the tombstone.

It started raining at two o' clock this afternoon and stopped an hour ago. Ye zhiqiao didn't know how long she had been sitting here.

Gu mohan's heart throbbed uncontrollably and he asked in a slow voice, "What else? Just because of that?"

Ye zhiqiao saw her reflection in gu mohan's eyes. His eyes were dark but bright, filled with mountains and fog in the distance. He stood in silence, like a sail in the sea.

She suddenly did not want to pretend to be strong, but wanted to tell everything to the man in front of her. She clearly believed that this man would be like the sea, enough to contain all the waves.

"I, I went back to the ye family today."

Gu mohan stood upright in the gradually darkening sky, listening to ye zhiqiao talk about the whole thing.

"That's it. After I left the ye family, I came to my mother. I haven't had a chance to visit her for five years, but every year I remind my dad to visit her on the anniversary of her death and qingming. As a result..."

Ye zhiqiao sneered and did not continue.

Gu mohan looked at the tombstone clean, only a bunch of white chrysanthemums quietly independent appearance, his heart was already clear.

After all, he was a husband and wife and had a daughter, but ye guojun was so ruthless that he never came to visit his dead wife.

Seeing that ye zhiqiao was gradually immersed in grief, gu mohan changed the subject and asked, "Since things have developed like this, do you have any plans for the future?"

Ye zhiqiao was really brought back to her senses by his question. She nodded and said, "I thought a lot this afternoon. Even though I felt that it was not natural for me to do this, I still decided."

Ye zhiqiao looked into gu mohan's eyes and said word by word, "I want to destroy the ye family and take back everything that belongs to me."

Although it was unexpected that ye zhiqiao, who had always paid attention to family ties and was willing to be wronged, would actually make such a decision, gu mohan secretly praised in his heart. Ye zhiqiao finally grew up and became brave, so that she would not be bullied again in the future.

"If you really decide, I will help you." Gu mohan was willing to stand in front of her and protect her from all the storms.

"Thank you."

Ye zhiqiao bent her eyes and trusted him completely.

"But what should I do? Ye yiyu is a little easier, but the power of the ye family is still in my father's hands. He's not as impulsive as ye yiyu, and it's hard to get hold of him."

Gu mohan thought for a moment and agreed, "That's true. Ye yiyu is just a beginner, so he has revealed such a big foothold in the design draft. Ye guojun is different. He has been in the business world for decades, experienced and deep in thought. This matter needs to be discussed in a long term."

"In the long run?"
