Chapter 108:1 Will Never Compromise

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Grandma Gu looked at Meng Nianyao’s obedient appearance and blurted out, “In the future, you and Wencheng should have a little girl. She’ll definitely be like you. She’ll be obedient and cute.”

“Bang!” Lin Ping slammed her chopsticks on the table and stood up. “Mom, I don’t agree.”

Before everyone could react to Grandma Gu’s joke, they saw Lin Ping stand up with a big reaction.

Lin Ping’s expression was ugly. She looked at Meng Nianyao with obvious disgust in her eyes. “I don’t agree to her marrying Wencheng! Even if you get a marriage certificate, you have to hurry up and get a divorce certificate!”

“Why?” Grandma Gu’s face turned cold as well. She looked at Lin Ping with the sternness that had accumulated over the years.

Gu Guanping did not expect Lin Ping to say such a thing. He tugged at Lin Ping. “What nonsense are you talking about? Mom just got discharged from the hospital today. Don’t make her angry. We can talk about it later.”

“Why do we have to talk about it later? This concerns my son’s future happiness! I won’t compromise!” Lin Ping’s emotions were very intense as she looked at Meng Nianyao. “Miss Meng, you should have some self-awareness. It’s fine if your status doesn’t match our family. You’ve also divorced before, and it was because of an affair!” Our Gu family definitely can’t have a daughter-in-law like you!”

Other than Gu Guanping, everyone else knew about Meng Nianyao’s past. Meng Nianyao didn’t want to hide it and even confessed to Grandma Gu. If they minded, she could leave Gu Wencheng. Even so, she still felt ashamed after being pointed at and scolded by Lin Ping in public. She stood up and apologized subconsciously. “I’m sorry—”

Before she could finish, Gu Wencheng pulled her hand.

He got up and looked at Lin Ping with an indifferent expression. “Ms. Lin, this is my own business. You have no right to interfere. Please respect my wife.”

“You…” Lin Ping looked at Gu Wencheng in disbelief. She couldn’t believe that her son would say such words to her on behalf of a woman who had cheated on her second marriage!

In a fit of anger, Lin Ping walked to Gu Wencheng’s side and raised her hand to slap him.

The entire dining room fell silent.

After the slap, Lin Ping regained her senses. The hand that hit Gu Wencheng trembled slightly. She looked at Gu Wencheng and opened her mouth, but no words came out.

Lin Ping’s slap was filled with anger and she used all her strength, causing Gu Wencheng’s face to tilt.

Meng Nianyao’s eyes turned red instantly.

Gu Wencheng turned his face and sneered before leaving with Meng Nianyao. Grandma Gu pointed at the door and roared at Gu Guanping and Lin Ping.

Grandma Gu was furious. Grandpa Gu frowned and walked to Grandma Gu’s side to calm her down. Gu Guanping opened his mouth to say something, but Grandpa Gu did not even look at him. “Let’s go. Don’t come back if there’s nothing else.”

As the car sped up, Meng Nianyao subconsciously tightened her seatbelt and looked at Gu Wencheng with pursed lips.

The car drove all the way to the seaside in the suburbs before stopping. Gu Wencheng ignored Meng Nianyao and got out of the car. Meng Nianyao was still wearing the qipao. Gu Wencheng was pulling her along so quickly that she didn’t have the chance to put on her coat. The sea breeze was cold and cutting like a knife’s edge.

Meng Nianyao walked over to Gu Wencheng and stood behind him. Gu Wencheng was facing the sea, his side profile looking cold and indifferent. Meng Nianyao didn’t know what to say, but she reached out to hold his hand.

Gu Wencheng was immersed in his own emotions until Meng Nianyao held his hand. He turned his head and saw Meng Nianyao standing beside him in a thin cheongsam. He frowned and took off his suit jacket. “Who let you get off?” With that, he pulled Meng Nianyao into the car and turned on the air conditioner.

Meng Nianyao’s exposed arm was red from the cold and felt cold. Gu Wencheng’s face was pale and he remained silent. Meng Nianyao pursed her lips. “Gu Wencheng.”

Gu Wencheng didn’t respond. Meng Nianyao leaned over and hugged him. She felt very sorry. It was because of her that his mother had hit him.

Lin Ping’s slap was really ruthless. Under the dim light, the pale red palm print on Gu Wencheng’s face could still be seen. He smiled and took Meng Nianyao’s hand. He placed it on the cheek that had been slapped. “Are you feeling sorry for her?” he asked..
