Because she thought that it might be Si Yichen who was waiting for her, Gu Tong didn't feel too pressured. Her steps were light and light as she walked.
However, when she stepped through the door of the principal's office, she was shocked to discover that there was no one inside. There was neither Si Yicheng nor the principal. Only the father sat inside with a dark face and a powerful aura.
Is he the one looking for me?
What did he want with me?
Did he want to say the same things he had said last time?
Seeing her father sitting upright, Gu Tong felt a strong sense of foreboding in her heart.
She had originally planned to enter the Principal's office, but now she stood in front of the principal's door and did not move at all.
She was a little afraid of going in and facing her father, and didn't know how to face him.
Because of her arrival, the temperature in the principal's office plummeted by several degrees.
Her sudden halt in her steps didn't change the purpose of her father's coming here. The father looked at her coldly for a few seconds, then declared with a strong face, "I don't like you being together with my son. It would be best for the two of you to separate immediately."
Although Gu Tong had been prepared for her father's purpose in coming here after their previous encounter, she still felt a bit angry after hearing her father's rude order.
She temporarily put away her politeness and cultivation before replying firmly, "The two of us have known each other since we were young. Our relationship is very deep and we can't be separated. We don't want to be separated either."
If her father's attitude was a bit better, Gu Tong could kindly explain the matter between her and Si Yichen and try her best to gain his understanding and blessings. However, her father kept saying bad things to her, so she could not be blamed for being impolite.
Ever since she was young, Gu Tong had never been willing to accept defeat. Even when she grew up, her personality had always remained deep within her heart, and had never changed.
It was just that they had matured a little and had a lot of things to think about.
Her response naturally caused her father to be extremely displeased.
The father looked gloomy. He picked up a few photos and a few pages of information from the sofa, threw them on the tea table, then said to Gu Tong with extreme disdain, "Do you think you can keep pestering my son just because the two of you played around for a few days? This is the standard of our family's daughter-in-law. "With your little ability, you don't even have the right to enter our Si Family's gates."
A daughter-in-law?
His family already had a daughter-in-law?
Si Yicheng already had a girlfriend?
Even though Gu Tong was very dissatisfied with her father's actions, her curiosity was still enough to drive her to slowly walk a few steps in his direction.
As soon as she reached a place where she could see the picture, she stopped.
She didn't want to be too close to her father, preferably as far away as she could get. Another reason was that she knew the woman in the photo and didn't need to read any further.
Lin Anya was the Lin Clan's Second Miss. Although she was not the legitimate wife of the Lin Clan, her status in the Lin Clan was not low. In fact, she was even more favored by her father than the Lin Clan's Eldest Miss.
Lin Anya's simple information appeared in Gu Tong's mind. The reason why she was so clear about Lin Anya's situation at home was because she and the Lin Family's eldest daughter, Lin Anyun, were good friends.
How come I've never heard An Yun say that her sister was a daughter-in-law of the Si family?
Could it be that the Priest was trying to pick a random girl to lie to me?
After finding out about that woman's information, Gu Tong boldly made this guess. However, she didn't have much evidence. She could only guess and ask when there was a chance.
However, Gu Tong also knew in her heart that in a good way, her father was lying, but in a bad way, what he said might very well be true. Si Yichen really did have a person who was more powerful than her, a partner for marriage.
Gu Tong, who was aware of the Lin Clan's background, couldn't help but feel inferior when she thought of her own clan's circumstances.
"What? Don't you even have the courage to look at this information?"
Seeing that Gu Tong had stopped in front of the tea table, Ye Zichen felt a bit surprised and inferior to her. The Master purposely spoke up, wanting to beat her up even more so so that she could leave as soon as possible.
Although Gu Tong tried very hard to hide her feelings of inferiority, in the eyes of her astute and scheming father, she could still see some clues.
Gu Tong didn't want to be looked down upon by her father, so she immediately clenched her teeth and retorted, "It's not that I don't have the courage, but I have enough confidence in Si Yichen. I know that no matter how good a woman's condition is, he won't fall for me. He'll only have me in his heart."
In truth, they hadn't seen each other for eight years, and they hadn't been together for long. Gu Tong wasn't very clear about what Si Yichen was thinking, and the reason she was saying this was because she was trying to fight with her father.
He suddenly stood up and said to Gu Tong through gritted teeth, "Miss Gu, don't be too complacent. Let me remind you, the Si Family isn't just Si Yichen, he doesn't decide everything. For an important matter like the Si Family's daughter-in-law, without my approval, no matter how much he likes it, it will be useless. "
"As for me, I will absolutely not agree to you being my daughter-in-law."
The father solemnly emphasized his own thoughts.
If it was said that he didn't agree with Gu Tong and Si Yicheng being together before because of the ability of the Gu family, then now, he didn't agree with the two of them being together. In addition to their ability, he also felt some disgust towards Gu Tong herself.
He had lived for such a long time. With his status as a Si family member, even older business leaders and political officials would show him some respect, much less a young girl like Gu Tong. He had never seen that person speak to him in such a manner before.
"Even if you don't agree, it's useless. I'll never marry anyone but her."
Just as Gu Tong was faced with her father's powerful analysis and didn't know how to fight back, a domineering voice came from the door.
She immediately turned around in surprise and saw that Si Yichen was walking towards her with hurried steps.
"You …"
She reflexively wanted to ask, "Why is he here?"
Before he could voice out the doubts in his heart, he felt a surge of strength pulling him into a strong embrace.
"Don't keep making things difficult for Little Tong. My heart won't change no matter what."
Si Yichen tightly embraced Gu Tong. He looked at his father without fear, clearly announcing his intentions.
