Chapter 414 Then Let's Break Up

In an instant, there was a commotion at the gu mansion!

"Mom!" Gu mohan suddenly stood up and tried to rush over to grab the knife.

But mother gu turned around and flashed, retreating a few steps closer to the corner, glaring at her bloodshot eyes and saying, "Don't call me mother, I'm not! Go find your ye zhiqiao. I won't live to get in your way!"

"What are you doing?" Father gu's face darkened, but his voice trembled uncontrollably, "If you have something to discuss, you should settle it. Why do you still use the knife? Put it down, let's talk about it."

"Yes, yes..."

The maids who rushed into the living room also tried to dissuade their mother. Even a few girls were crying.

The gu family had always been the object of the ordinary people's admiration. Even though gu father was old-fashioned, gu mother was mean, and gu mo was cold and hard, they could still maintain their dignity and reserve under the packaging of money. How could they have seen such a scene?

At this point, mother gu could no longer afford to lose or not lose face, because she knew that the day when the gu family could not survive the complete bankruptcy was the most humiliating day for the gu family. Before that, as long as it could be recovered, she would be willing to pay any price!

The hand holding the knife tightened, and the sharp blade inched closer to the neck that had endured years and wrinkles.

Mother gu's hand was shaking, but no one noticed it.

She was gambling, with gu mohan, with ye zhiqiao in gu mohan's heart. Although gu mohan often fought against her for ye zhiqiao and even threatened her verbally, she still had some confidence if it was related to life.

Finally, her bet... Succeeded!

In the midst of the exclamation and dissuasion, gu mohan's deep voice, which seemed to have lost all hope, came slowly, "Don't you want me to marry su yanbai? I can't... But I can get engaged first."

This was his biggest concession and his cruelest decision. This "Cruelty" was to himself and also to ye zhiqiao.

But mother gu forced him to die. He... Had no choice!

With the crisp "Clang" sound of the fruit knife landing, the farce finally came to an end. Most people were happy and one was worried.

In front of ye zhiqiao's apartment building, there were dark clouds in the dark blue sky.

Gu mohan smoked a cigarette and stared at the familiar building in front of him, lost in thought. Then the cigarette butts with sparks fell to the ground, raised their feet, and stepped out.

He adjusted his suit for two days, smoothed his short hair, and walked upstairs.

Two days had passed since he agreed to get engaged.

Ever since he left the door of the gu family villa, he had been hiding in the office, hiding in the name of overtime work, but he understood that it was useless to escape.

What ye zhiqiao should know will be known sooner or later, and what he should do is to take the initiative to tell her the truth before ye zhiqiao is hurt.

The doorbell rang and the door was opened as if someone inside had been waiting at the door.

They hadn't seen each other for nearly a week and looked at each other. Both of them felt strange.

"Come in." Ye zhiqiao spoke first.

"Yeah."

Gu mohan agreed, but he did not look ye zhiqiao in the eye, but lowered his head and walked in.

The two of them sat on the sofa, quiet and awkward.

"Anything to drink?"

"Little treasure is not here?"

At the same time, there was a moment of silence.

Ye zhiqiao broke the silence, smiled and replied, "I was going to the hospital for a checkup a few days ago, and little treasure has been living with mengqi."

"Oh." Gu mohan nodded, "I... I don't want to drink anymore. Oh yes! You said you were going for a checkup... What's wrong?"

He didn't know about ye zhiqiao's blood transfusion for little treasure.

Ye zhiqiao didn't want to say anything to make him worry, so she raised her hand to smooth his collar and deliberately said softly, "No, it's always hypoglycemia. It's just a normal physical examination."

Gu mohan said "Yes." Ye zhi happened to have hypoglycemia, and he knew it, so he didn't take it to heart.

At this point, the conversation seemed to have reached a stalemate. There was something hidden in both of them, but neither of them wanted to speak.

Finally, ye zhiqiao couldn't help it first.

"I heard that... The gu family has been in trouble recently, isn't it very troublesome?" Ye zhiqiao tilted her head and asked as easily as possible.

She took the initiative to bring it up, and gu mohan seemed relieved.

"Not bad. No... Not good."

Gu mohan hesitated, but ye zhiqiao knew clearly that the gu family was now very bad.

On the news, on the website, including the daily report of yi chen, all told ye zhiqiao that the gu family was very bad and might even go bankrupt!

At the same time, ye zhiqiao heard some news about the relationship between gu mohan and su yanbai.

But she didn't believe it. As long as gu mohan didn't tell her, she wouldn't believe anyone. Yi chen or jian mengqi, she could laugh it off, unless gu mohan... Said it himself.

However, ye zhiqiao's original certainty, after seeing gu mohan at this time, could not help but waver!

On a stormy night, there was a dead room, and gu mohan, who was disheveled and wanted to speak but stopped... All the details were connected, and she really began to hesitate.

In fact, she knew that if she broke up, everything would be solved. The gu family was still in the middle of the day, and gu mohan would get a girlfriend who would help him, and then be popular again. Little treasure could also continue to live a carefree life, better than most of his peers on the starting line.

She understood everything, but she couldn't help being selfish.

This is human nature. What should we do?

"What do you... Want to tell me?" Ye zhiqiao could not escape her conscience, so she chose the fairest way to ask, "If you have something to discuss with me, you must say it quickly. Tonight, I will agree to your request."

If you want to break up, I promise; if you want to be together forever, I promise.

Ye zhiqiao would not force her to die like mother gu. She just asked for gu mohan's opinion in the most bland and breezy way.

But it was also this kind of thoughtfulness that made gu mohan more ashamed and heartbroken.

Neither of them was a procrastinator, and this matter could not be delayed. Gu mohan rested quietly on the sofa with his eyes closed for a while, then opened his eyes, looked at the familiar chandelier overhead, and said quickly, "Let's break up."

...

Ye zhiqiao looked at him silently for a long time, and the expression on her face changed from a forced smile to a dull one.

"Then break up." She said.

The sound of closing the door was the same as when opening the door. A dull and soft sound could bring people from both worlds together, and could also divide people from one world into two poles.

Gu mohan left without looking back.
