Soon, Gu Pan stood up and said apologetically to Cheng Xiaojun: "Xiaojun, I have something urgent at home, I have to go back first, I can't entertain you today, I'm really sorry, can I treat you to dinner another day? "
This is a disguised order to evict guests.
Xiaojun was also savvy, she stood up and said, "It's okay, you do your work first, I just came out for a casual stroll when I was bored."
Gu Pan was anxious to go back, when Xiaojun and his wife came out of her shop, Gu Pan immediately closed the door.
"Gu Pan."
Xiaojun couldn't help but said: "If you need help, remember to call me, what I tell you is sincere, you must think carefully about it."
Gu Pan nodded gratefully, waved his hand apologetically, and left in a hurry under Xiaojun's watch.
"Gu Pan is so pitiful."
Watching her go away, Xiaojun sighed.
Mu Zhi said lightly: "Life cannot be smooth sailing, she has lived too smoothly in the past twenty years."
Cheng Xiaojun looked at him.
He quickly changed his words: "As long as you want to help her, I will help her."
"She doesn't want to."
Xiaojun sighed helplessly.
She confessed everything, but Gu Pan was still unwilling.
Mu Zhi pulled her back the same way, "Gu Pan's character is pretty good. She knows her situation well, even if she has a crush on your brother, she won't be with your brother."
"The cow doesn't drink water, and it can't be pressed to drink. Neither of them wants to, and I can't help it." Cheng Xiaojun sighed again.
"Wife, you are pregnant now, you have to maintain a beautiful mood, you can't sigh all day long, marriage is destined, and your brother's fate has not arrived, there is no use for us to be impatient. Didn't I say that fate will come a thousand miles away Meet, no chance to meet or not to know each other."
Cheng Xiaojun also knew that it was useless to be impatient.
After all, it was my brother who wanted to marry a wife, not her.
Brother is not willing, even if she enlists a hundred beauties to be chosen by brother, brother will not be able to choose.
Alas, in Mu Zhi's words, my brother's marriage has not yet come.
"Should I go home or go to the martial arts school?" Mu Zhi changed the subject.
"Go to the martial arts hall."
Mu Zhi hummed.
...
Gu family.
When Gu Pan returned home, she saw her parents sitting in the hall eating snacks and watching TV.
The worry along the way turned into anger in an instant.
She threw her car keys heavily on the coffee table, making a snap.
"Panpan, what are you doing? You scared Mom." Gu's mother was holding a snack box, which contained several exquisitely made snacks. After she ate a piece of snack, she gracefully closed the lid of the box, Then put the box of unfinished snacks under the coffee table.
"Dad, you told me to come back right away, what's the matter?" Gu Pan suppressed his anger and sat down in front of the sofa, looking directly at his father.
Mother Gu got up and walked away.
"Zhou Zhong visited you, right?" Gu's father was stared at by his daughter, and the daughter's eyes were full of fire. Gu's father was a little guilty, but thinking of the large sum of money, Gu's father forced him I am ruthless.
He raised his daughter to such a great age and gave her a good material life. Now that they are older, it is time for her to repay them.
Zhou Zhong really liked his daughter.
Father Gu looked at his daughter carefully, she was a beauty, he always knew that his daughter was very beautiful, the family used to be rich, and gave her a good education, temperament, self-cultivation, all aspects are good .
Zhou Zhong said that Panpan is better than the two deceased wives before him.
Father Gu was quite proud of himself. Of course, the daughter of the Gu family was better than Zhou Zhong's two dead wives.
If the Gu family hadn't gone bankrupt, based on Zhou Zhong's conditions, Gu's father would actually look down on him.
His daughter can marry into Mu's family as a young mistress, so how can a nouveau riche like Zhou Zhong be able to match her?
But today is different from the past.
"I've looked for it. Dad, Zhou Zhong said that you asked for five million yuan from him. Is it true?" Since her father told her about it, Gu Pan asked bluntly. Even if his father didn't take the initiative to say, She will come back and ask.
"Dad, I'm a person, not an item. How can you do this? I'm your biological daughter!"
Father Gu snorted: "I know you are our biological daughter, if you weren't our biological daughter, we wouldn't bother to worry about it, and you still hold grudges for not being grateful to you, look at your current attitude. I can't wait to eat my dad."
"Zhou Zhong is a bit older, but he has money. If you marry him, you can live a good life without lack of money as before. Parents are old, and that's all they can get for you If our family is not bankrupt, with your conditions, you can still marry into a real wealthy family as a young mistress, but now that our family is bankrupt, it will be difficult for you to marry into a real wealthy family. Zhou Zhong’s family background is not bad, anyway. With a net worth of tens of millions, and he likes you so much, wouldn't it be better for you to marry him than now?"
"The five million yuan is Zhou Zhong's engagement gift to us. He said that when you have your wedding, he will give another ten million yuan as a bride price. He is only worth tens of millions, and he is willing to spend it to marry you. Fifteen million is on you, it shows that he really likes you. Panpan, besides him, can you find someone richer than him?"
As he talked, Father Gu felt that he was completely thinking of his daughter.
He was reluctant for his daughter to endure hardship and poverty, and wanted her to live the life of a rich wife again.
"Dad, if I don't marry, return the five million to Zhou Zhong." Gu Pan held back his anger and calmly said to his father, "I think I'm living a fulfilling life now."
Father Gu immediately put on a dark face and scolded her: "The engagement money has been collected, how can you refund it immediately? Dad even wrote the invitation card, and he wants to invite our relatives and friends to the engagement banquet between you and Zhou Zhong. "
After a pause, he said again: "Your mother and I have already spent a lot of money, and we can no longer return it to Zhou Zhong."
Gu Pan had already guessed that this would be the result, but when she faced it, she still felt uncomfortable.
Gu's mother brought out a cup of soup, she handed the soup to Gu Pan, and said in a warm voice, "Panpan, your father is also doing it for your own good, Zhou Zhong is a little older, a mature man loves others, He likes you very much, if you marry him, only he dotes on you."
"This soup is a nourishing soup. You have been doing business from morning to night, and you have lost weight a few times. Mom feels distressed when she sees it. Drink the soup while it's hot." Gu's mother sat down next to her daughter, and wanted to feed Gu Pan herself. Soup.
Gu Pan gently pushed it away, she couldn't laugh or cry, "Mom, I'm not in the mood to drink some tonic soup now, if you really love me, don't make so many troubles again. I said, I don't like Zhou Zhong , and don’t want to marry him, Mom, you should return the money to them quickly.”
Gu's father said coldly: "I have already spent a lot of money, and there is no way to refund it."
"If you have money, you can compensate Zhou Zhong. You can compensate yourself. You don't want to marry anyway."
Looking at the black face.
Father Gu got up and was about to leave.
"dad."
Gu Pan stood up abruptly, "Dad."
Gu's father didn't look at her, but said coldly: "You drink the tonic soup your mother stewed for you first, don't waste your mother's heart, let's talk after drinking the soup."
With that said, Father Gu walked away.
Gu's mother put the soup on the coffee table, got up and pushed Gu Pan to sit down, then picked up the tonic soup again, handed it to Gu Pan, and said lovingly: "Panpan, the weather is cold, the soup is easy to cool, you first After drinking this cup of tonic soup, I will go talk to your dad when I feel warmer."
Gu Pan looked at her mother quietly. If her parents really cared about her and cared about her, they wouldn't force her to marry a man who was ten years older than her and whom she didn't like.
"What's the matter? Look at Mom like this. Come, try the tonic soup that Mom made for you. It tastes good." Mother Gu gently scooped up a tablespoon of soup and fed it to Gu Pan's mouth.
"Mom, I'll drink it myself."
Gu Pan took the soup and spoon from his mother.
Under the watchful eyes of her mother, Gu Pan tasted two mouthfuls of the soup. She didn't know if it was stewed with medicinal materials or for other reasons. She always felt that the taste of this soup was weird.
She just took two sips and then put it down, she was really not in the mood to drink any more.
"Why don't you drink it? Isn't it delicious?" Seeing that she had only taken two sips, Gu's mother put it down, and said, "Drink more, this is a tonic soup, so two sips won't help."
