Looking at ye zhiqiao's innocent face, mother gu felt that she was being hypocritical and annoying. She said to the servants in a loud voice, "All of you, tidy up your things quickly. Throw everything this woman touches to a new one!"
After that, she gave ye zhiqiao a sidelong glance and said with disgust, "This kind of thing that a woman has touched must be so dirty that it can't even be washed with disinfectant."
"Mom!"
Gu mohan could no longer listen and got up to ask his mother, "Why are you talking like this? Zhiqiao just casually said something that made you misunderstand, and he's already apologized. Why are you making a big deal out of it?"
"Am I making a mountain out of a molehill?" Mother gu could not bear to see gu mohan defending ye zhiqiao. Taking this opportunity, she said, "This is the good woman you call generous, decent and polite? Hmph, the first time they met formally, they disrespected their elders. Who could not understand what was going on? How dare she treat me like this before she even enters the house? If she gets the upper hand one day, she will step on both your father and me!!"
The more mother gu said, the more ridiculous it became. Gu mohan could not help but say with a calm face, "I have never seen Zhiqiao disrespect you two. To be fair, I don't think there was anything wrong with what Zhiqiao said just now. Different people see different people. Different people see different people. As for the reason why you think she is scolding you, you should look for it yourself."
"You!!" Mother gu pointed at gu mohan, her breathing uneven.
Ye zhi coincidentally pulled gu mohan from behind and told him to keep quiet. She didn't mean to talk back to her mother just now, but gu mohan was clearly saying that she wasn't. Anyone would say that it was gu mohan's fault for a woman to go against her mother.
Sure enough, before ye zhiqiao could start persuading gu mohan, father gu had already stood up with his hands on the table. He stared at gu mohan with deep eyes and a thin layer of anger appeared on his face.
"Mohan, is that how you talk to your mother?"
He had been paying attention to the conversation between mother gu and ye zhiqiao, and he was not very satisfied with her in private, because mother gu was an elder, and what the elders said could not be refuted by the younger generation, but mother gu was also a bit aggressive, so he did not say much.
But if gu mohan was also standing by ye zhiqiao's side, he would not be able to turn a blind eye to a woman without regard for etiquette and upbringing.
First of all, no matter what the reason, as a man, he should focus on his career. If gu mohan really loved ye zhiqiao deeply and fell in love with ordinary people, it would be harmful to the gu family and not beneficial to the company. And although the su family and the gu family were in a very unpleasant situation, he believed that with his relationship with su's father, as long as gu mohan sincerely apologized, the engagement and cooperation could still be salvaged, so even if it was for the immediate benefit, gu mohan could not be with ye zhiqiao.
"Mohan, miss ye." Father gu said slowly with a straight face, "We are very touched and happy that you came to see us today, but regarding miss ye's identity, we cannot admit it."
"Dad..."
Gu mohan wanted to say more. Gu father's heavy gaze swept over him, motioning him to keep quiet. Then he continued to say to ye zhiqiao, "Miss ye, you must know something about the gu family. Whether it's for the sake of the gu group or for Mohan's sake, your identity is not a good match for the gu family, so I hope you can have..."
"Dad, how can you say that?!" Gu mohan pulled ye zhiqiao behind him and angrily said to his father, "I brought zhiqiao back today to inform you that this is my girlfriend, my fiancee, and my only wife in my life! As for her background, whether she matches the gu family or not, this is not something you need to consider."
Ye zhiqiao was an outsider, and her father needed to leave some leeway when he spoke to her, but in the face of his son, the nature of dictatorship was immediately revealed.
"Gu mohan, I am your father. Is that how you talk to me?! Inform me? Tell me when you have a child, tell me when you decide who else to marry. I am the father, you are the father? When will you let this family go?!!"
Father gu roared so loudly that the people present were overwhelmed by his imposing manner that even the servants who came and went to pack their things were hiding in the kitchen, not daring to make any noise.
He was gu mohan's father, and the former head of the gu family, who had developed the gu family into what it was now. He was a powerful man who called the wind and the rain in his youth. Even though he was old and retired from his position, his domineering spirit could not be extinguished.
Therefore, gu mohan had the same respect and fear for this father, just like every boy, that was why he wanted to bring ye zhiqiao home to get his father's approval.
Realizing that he had lost control of his emotions, gu mohan took a deep breath and nodded at him, "Dad, don't be angry. I didn't mean it. It's just..."
He pulled ye zhiqiao to his side and said sincerely and solemnly, "Zhiqiao is really a very good girl. My relationship with her is not just a day or two, but a lifetime together. It is a common wish of both of us. So, I hope to get your blessing and mother's blessing."
Before father gu could breathe, he waved his big hand and shouted, "I don't care if she's a good girl or not, but you, gu mohan, are my son. As long as I'm here for a day, you can't be with this woman."
Ye zhiqiao stiffened and looked at gu mohan helplessly. She could not understand why she had come here with such excitement, but in the end, she had come to such a conclusion.
Gu mohan held her hand tightly in his palm and shook his head gently at her. Then he said to his father, "You disagreed with us because of her family background. Indeed, she had a bad relationship with her family and was working alone outside, but she worked very hard and achieved great success in her profession. Designer' wake up' you've heard of..."
He wrapped his arms around ye zhiqiao's shoulder and said in a loud voice, "Zhiqiao, she is'mengxing'. Internationally, no one doesn't know this name."
"So what?"
After hearing gu Mohan's words, gu's father said coldly, "Even if she is an internationally renowned designer, how will it help you or the gu family to marry her? Designers can work for the gu family, but they can't bring real benefits to the gu family like the well-matched su yanbai."
