Chapter 172 Seeing Is Believing

Mother gu was very happy to see su yanbai. Previously, she was afraid that her son's actions angered father su, and even su yanbai would get angry with her, but it seemed that she did not.

As usual, su yanbai held mother gu's hand and spoke. She was magnanimous and kind when she told her what had happened at the banquet.

Mother gu was embarrassed and said apologetically, "Yan yan, Mohan is like this sometimes. He has a very stubborn temper. You must not be as sensible as him."

"Auntie, what are you talking about? I know brother gu. He definitely didn't do it on purpose. It's all because of ye zhiqiao." Speaking of ye zhiqiao, su yanbai asked unintentionally, "By the way, auntie, is brother gu going to marry ye zhiqiao?"

"Ah?!" Mother gu was taken aback by her question, "Marriage? Who said they were getting married?"

Su yanbai widened her eyes and asked innocently, "No? But I heard that ye zhiqiao was pregnant... Not brother gu's child?"

"What! Pregnant?!"

Sure enough, when she heard the news, mother gu was so surprised that she did not close her mouth for a long time. She asked su yanbai, "Yan yan, what the hell is going on? Tell auntie."

Su yanbai was also surprised, "Don't you know? People outside have spread the word that ye zhiqiao fainted because she was pregnant and is still in the hospital."

Then she frowned and pinched her fingers in embarrassment, "But if she was pregnant with brother gu's child, how could brother gu not tell you, or... That child is... Someone else's?"

"Others? Whose?"

Su yanbai shook her head repeatedly, "Actually, I don't know very well. I also heard that... I heard that ye zhiqiao's private life seemed... A little... Chaotic. There seemed to be a lot of opposite sex friends around her. She had been abroad for a few years, and her life was quite... Open..."

"Life is open. You mean she has..."

Mother gu's words were very vague. Su yanbai pretended not to understand, but still nodded in affirmation.

Mother gu was stunned. Gu mohan had always said that ye zhiqiao was good and good, but she had never said that she had such a problem. What good could a woman do with so many men?!

She was angry and anxious. That night, she called gu mohan home and "Interrogated" him with her father.

"That ye zhiqiao, what's going on? You have to give me and your dad an explanation today!"

Gu mohan had just returned from his social engagements outside and was so tired that he could not wait to lie down in bed and sleep. Hearing gu's mother say this, he was too lazy to think about the meaning of the words and asked directly, "What happened to ye zhi?"

Sitting across from him, Mrs. Gu leaned forward and patted the table. "Did you know that she's pregnant?" Whose child is it?!"

Hmm? So it was this.

Gu mohan was worried about this matter, and he didn't know who spread the rumor that ye zhi happened to be pregnant. It was obviously groundless, but today it had been spread all over the world. He didn't expect that even his parents knew about it.

He quickly explained, "Don't listen to the rumors outside. They're all fake. Ye zhiqiao was indeed living in the hospital now, but that was because she was tired from rushing the design draft overnight and was recuperating. Pregnant? It's just a rumor."

Seeing that gu Mohan didn't seem to be lying, mother gu calmed down a little. In fact, she was afraid that ye zhi qiao would not love to be pregnant, but rather that she was afraid that ye zhi qiao was pregnant with gu mohan's child.

If it was true, how could gu mohan fulfill his engagement with miss su when he couldn't get rid of the dog skin plaster?

Mother gu stopped talking, but father gu suddenly said, "No wind, no waves. If she is really so clean, how can someone smear her body for no reason?"

"Dad." Gu mohan stood up and said anxiously, "She's really a good girl. No matter her character or work, she can't find any fault. You..."

"Okay."

Father gu raised his hand to interrupt him and said slowly, "You told us not to believe the rumors outside, but you made us believe your side of the story. There is always the suspicion of protecting our own shortcomings. You like that ye zhiqiao, and I won't comment, but I can't easily believe your words."

"Dad, what do you mean?" Gu mohan asked in disbelief.

"I only believe in my own eyes." Gu fu stood up with his thighs propped up, moving his shoulders as he said, "Staying at home for too long is making your body weak. Go out for a walk tomorrow and look at ye zhiqiao, who you have praised so much."

With that, he took his little teapot up the stairs and went back to his room.

Gu father wanted to see ye zhiqiao, and gu mohan was not sure whether it was a blessing or a curse. Father gu's bad impression of ye zhiqiao is certain now. It would be best if he could change his opinion through this meeting, but I am afraid that the preconceived impression would not be so easily changed.

But since gu father wanted to see him, gu mohan had no reason to stop him.

Since ye zhiqiao was in the hospital, father gu agreed to condescend to visit the hospital. This news shocked ye zhiqiao. What was the status of father gu? She was not only her real owner, the person with the highest status in the gu family, but also gu mohan's father and her elder. Wouldn't she lose her life if someone came to visit her?

Gu mohan persuaded her to relax, saying that father gu came here mainly to see her. He had no other intention, so there was no need to be nervous or afraid.

As gu mohan's "No other meaning" was muttered in her heart, ye zhiqiao waited in the ward nervously.

Finally, a familiar voice came from outside the door, and the door of the ward was pushed open.

Ye zhiqiao had been standing in the middle of the ground. When she saw gu fu come in, she immediately went up and bowed before greeting him, "Hello, uncle gu. I'm a friend of president gu, ye zhiqiao."

Father gu nodded and agreed. He glanced at the box in gu mohan's hand and said, "I heard that you are ill. The old man doesn't know what to give you. Keep these tea leaves if you like."

"Thank you, uncle gu." Ye zhiqiao took the box from gu mohan's hand, took a serious look at it, then smiled and said, "I like tea very much, but they are all ordinary tea. Junshan silver needle is such a famous tea. I have never tasted it before. Thank you very much."

Nowadays, there are not many young people who like to drink tea. Seeing that she is quite understanding at such a young age, gu father's attitude is much more relaxed. He nods his head and says "Yes."

After that, ye zhiqiao invited him to sit down and personally brewed tea. When she came back, she put it in front of him and said apologetically, "There is no proper tea set and suitable water temperature here. Please forgive me."

Father gu nodded and said nothing.
