Thinking of this, she took a deep breath, ignored her parents' crazy hints, and refused with her head held high, "Grandpa Zhang, I'm afraid I will disappoint your good intentions. To be honest, I haven't thought of getting married yet. I think I should start a business before starting a family. If your career is not doing well, it proves that you don’t know how to live. Isn’t it a drag on your parents to start a family? Once you have children in the future, it will be even more sinful.”
Who could not understand what she meant?
Zhang Nanyan is notoriously a dandy, incompetent, and has no grades yet, and he is almost becoming a negative teaching material for the rich second generation. Sure enough, as soon as her words fell, titters immediately rang out from around.
Seeing this, Tang Jingcheng immediately threatened: "Xiaoxiao, have you forgotten what I told you before?"
"Dad, I also said that I don't want to settle down now. Have you considered my feelings?" Tang Xiaoxiao's heart ached unbearably, tears fell in strings, and his voice gradually choked up.
And Mrs. Tang had already turned her face away and secretly wiped her tears. The father and daughter are more stubborn than the other. Before, because of her daughter's insistence on starting a business, she had already fallen out. Now that this happened again, she didn't know who to help.
Zhang Nanyan's eyes became darker and darker, and he clenched his fists secretly. He did not agree to the engagement, but he did not expect that one day, he would be so rejected and slapped in the face.
Both families agreed to get engaged, but the parties strongly opposed it. Can this marriage still work?
Mr. Zhang didn't expect this situation, so he tried his best to fight for it, but... he almost fainted when he rolled his eyelids, but fortunately, Zhang Nanyan who was at the side quickly helped him up.
Su Momo couldn't stand it anymore, she walked quickly to Tang Xiaoxiao's side, and gave her best friend a warm shoulder.
"Momo..." Tang Xiaoxiao suddenly leaned on her shoulder, crying more and more sadly.
"Grandpa Zhang, since Xiaoxiao and Young Master Zhang don't quite agree, although it's the kindness of you and the two elders, they are planning to get married and have children in the end, I think... I'd better give them some time, wait for them to calm down Come down and think about it, what do you think?"
Su Momo thought about it, ignored Gu Yunchen's disapproving gaze, and said it in one go.
She did not take sides, but was matter-of-fact and very respectful.
Hearing what she said, the old man had no choice but to shake his head helplessly, and was helped down by the servant. Before leaving, he said in a hoarse voice: "I'm old, I can't take care of it anymore, you can figure it out."
As soon as the old man left, even if there were still people making noise, the banquet scene immediately became chaotic, with discussions one after another.
Su Momo felt that Tang Xiaoxiao's situation was not very good, so she took the initiative to ask Mrs. Tang for instructions: "Auntie, I will take Xiaoxiao to my place first, so don't be too sad."
"That's fine, but Momo has to work hard for you."
"It's okay, Xiaoxiao and I have known each other for so many years." Su Momo left with Tang Xiaoxiao, and heard a mocking laugh just as he turned around.
How could there be no Gu family on this occasion?
Li Shuxian was with some noble ladies, and when she saw this niece and daughter-in-law stealing the limelight, she said in a chilly tone, "I haven't figured out my own affairs yet, you really have the mind to meddle in others. Meddle in other people's business..."
Su Momo frowned, knowing that she was talking about a bet, and there were still a few days before the bidding, and the time was really tight, but this did not conflict with today's matter, so should we always be in fear?
"Second Aunt, I know it well, and today is Mr. Zhang's banquet. Didn't you and Second Uncle come over too? Could it be that you didn't do anything and just wait for the bidding?"
Faced with Su Momo's counterattack, Li Shuxian's face changed. She was about to put on the airs of her elders, but when she saw her husband who came after her, she finally swallowed the words that came to her lips, and only hummed after a long time, " Sure enough, if you don't listen to your elders and make friends with anyone, you will only go your own way. You marry well yourself, but you prevent your friends from marrying into a rich family, and you don't know what kind of peace of mind you have."
"We're all adults, why do we have to obey our elders?" Su Momo wanted to slam the words onto Second Aunt's chubby face.
After a while, she suppressed her anger and suddenly smiled, "Could it be that you have to marry into a rich family to realize the value of life? Oh, I forgot, how can Second Aunt and our pursuit be the same? Madam, you are a good example, if you obey your second uncle, of course you won’t understand the position of us working women.”
Her two sentences directly touched Li Shuxian's shortcomings.
Attacking Xiaosheng a wave, she ignored the other party's murderous eyes, and strode away from the banquet with Tang Xiaoxiao.
"You have no respect and no tutor..." Li Shuxian was in a panic, pointing at Su Momo's back and trying to scold, when she was suddenly pulled hard.
Gu Mingli reprimanded him with a cold face, "Stop saying a few words!"
Behind him, Gu Yunchen walked over slowly, but didn't say anything, and only gave the couple an indifferent look.
After the banquet, Su Momo suddenly remembered something when he arrived at the parking lot.
Too bad, she didn't seem to have discussed it with Gu Yunchen from the beginning to the end, would he...
Just when she was tangled up, she suddenly saw the man chasing after her with big strides, she smiled guiltyly, "Husband, are you back?"
"I thought you'd forgotten about me." Gu Yunchen said lightly, with one hand in his trousers pocket, no matter how dim the street lights were, it didn't prevent him from looking handsome.
Su Momo continued to laugh awkwardly, intending to pretend to be stupid.
"Momo, thank you just now." At this moment, Tang Xiaoxiao was blown by the cold wind and finally regained his composure, "I'm going back to my apartment too."
Since falling out with her parents, she found an apartment directly near the studio.
"How can this be done?" Su Momo disagreed, comforted her best friend, then turned to Gu Yunchen, and discussed obediently, "Husband, Xiaoxiao is my only good friend. I can't ignore her trouble now. , why not..."
With an idea, she thought of a good way to get the best of both worlds, "Why don't I go to Xiaoxiao to accompany her."
Gu Yunchen thought she would ask to take him home, but he was a little surprised. The next moment, a magnetic voice sounded slowly, "What are you bothering about? Why don't you go home at this late hour, one of you is drunk and the other is in a bad mood. No sense of security."
He said reprimanding words, but he didn't stop, and unlocked the car.
Finding that the person behind him hadn't moved, his voice became a little colder, "Still in the car?"
Su Momo was stunned for a long time, but quickly recovered after hearing this, and pulled Tang Xiaoxiao into the back seat.
After arriving home, they went straight to the guest room and left Gu Yunchen alone in the living room.
Gu Yunchen shook his head helplessly, but immediately called Zhang Nanyan, and when he heard the loud music on the other end, he subconsciously asked, "In a bar?"
