Chapter 29: Disagreement Continues

"Tell me what she is talking about!!!"

At the family criticism meeting the next day, Wu Limei, who rarely cared about her image, shouted at her husband. She then turned around and glared at Gu Yunsu: "I think you are going to rebel!"

"Okay, stop being so naive." Gu Yunsuan listened to a few words quietly, and couldn't help but start to fight back. Although he was still unclear in his heart, he said with particular certainty, "This is a perfectly normal process. It's equivalent to me temporarily freezing the food I can't eat in the refrigerator. What's wrong with that?"

"You're still talking?!" Wu Limei's eyes widened to twice their usual size, "Why don't you just freeze yourself in the freezer and wait until we die before you come out!"

Li Jianxiong was originally listening awkwardly at the side, unable to find a place to interrupt. At this moment, he could not help but call his wife, "Meimei!" and gave her a reproachful look.

Gu Yunsu was still nonchalant: "Look at what you said, you think you don't have the technology, right?"

"Just make me so mad at you that I'm dying!" Wu Limei was simply speechless.

Not to mention how confused she was when she received the note. To be honest, she had no idea what it meant at all.

Although I immediately asked my daughter what she meant by that, I didn't take it seriously at first and even laughed: "Why, you don't even want a gift I give you for free, are you kidding me?"

What did this unfilial son answer?

"No, this is the gift I want, right? Frozen eggs. I need money to freeze them."

Wu Limei still didn't believe it: "If you don't have money, just tell me directly. Why are you giving me all these nonsense excuses?"

After several rounds of conversation, she finally realized that her daughter was not joking and was serious.

He immediately flew into a rage: "I think it's because I give you too much freedom that you come up with all these messed up ideas!"

"What the hell? This is my legitimate need." Gu Yunsu argued, "Besides, what freedom have you given me?"

"If you say you don't want to work, then don't go to work. If you say you don't want to fall in love, I won't force you to go on a blind date. Isn't this giving you freedom? What other freedom do you want?!"

Gu Yunsu was also a little bit overwhelmed: "Oh my God! I'm already 28 years old! Isn't this kind of freedom a matter of course?"

"Yes, as long as you live in this house for one day, this kind of freedom is not taken for granted!"

Gu Yunsu remained silent.

These words hit her sore spot at once. One should be grateful to the person who feeds him, and one should be grateful to the person who takes the money from him. When living under someone else's roof, one has to look after that person's face. At her age, she is still relying on her parents for support. It is really shameful and she has no face to justify it.

But because she has reached this age, she has her own needs and plans. She has developed into a person with an independent personality and can no longer be a puppet doll that only knows how to spin on the stage.

It's an irreconcilable contradiction, and it all comes down to her own lack of money.

The argument turned to money, which showed that he had caught her weak spot. Gu Yunsu gave up, but then he thought again and felt aggrieved: No, it wasn't her initiative to ask for it. It was obviously Ms. Wu who wanted to be Santa Claus and was picky about her wish, but now she is blaming her.

Will Santa Claus ask you why you want to freeze your eggs? Will he criticize your determination to freeze your eggs for no reason? Will he mock you for being fanciful? After all, she doesn't understand why Ms. Wu is so strongly opposed.

The mother and daughter were in a cold war for the entire day. At the dinner table, Ms. Wu was still sulking, but because she was concerned about Li Yan, she didn't want to say it directly. She just glared and rolled her eyes.

In the end, Gu Yunsu got annoyed and said, "Isn't it just this trivial matter of freezing eggs? Is there any word that can't be said? Why are you hiding it so secretly?"

Wu Limei was so angry that she almost pouted. She glanced at Li Yan and then glared at her daughter: "Why are you talking nonsense in front of your brother?!"

"Why can't you say anything? He's already 18," Gu Yunsu also began to roll his eyes, "He probably knows more than you do."

Li Yan, who usually works hard, stopped eating for the first time. He looked at everyone at the table out of curiosity or something else. Finally, he looked at Gu Yunsu and asked, "Who wants to freeze their eggs? You?"

"Then who else can take care of this family at this moment?" Gu Yunsu asked.

Wu Limei felt so angry that she was about to go into premature labor.

Li Jianxiong was still standing there awkwardly, wanting to interrupt but not knowing where to start.

Gu Yunsu could understand his reaction. The two of them were not related, and she was so old. It was indeed inappropriate to let Li Jianxiong, a grown man, get involved in the topic of fertility for a "strange" young woman. His attitude was just right. If he had really put forward his opinions actively and enthusiastically, it would have made people want to die on the spot.

Gu Yunsu didn't want to upset others, but she didn't like Wu Limei's habit of always considering "face" in everything. She felt that it was difficult to talk about the topic with the Li father and son around. So why don't you just be normal and stop being so weird? When you got married, didn't you expect these embarrassing moments? You got married anyway? Isn't it too late to restrict yourself now?

Besides, this isn't a topic that's not acceptable to talk about, right?

This is what makes Gu Yunsu most speechless. Did she kill someone or set a fire? It is natural for you, Wu Limei, to have a child, but she, Gu Yunsu, wants to freeze her eggs, as if she has disgraced the entire Li, Wu, and Gu families?

She knew that Wu Limei was very conservative in everything except love, but all she wanted was a peaceful communication process. However, it was always like this. As long as there was a disagreement, Wu Limei would oppose and lose her temper on her own.

Wu Limei was still trying to control the situation and said to Li Yan, "Yanyan, have you finished eating? If you have, go back to your room and rest."

As a result, Li Yan continued to behave in an uncharacteristic way. He thought for a moment and replied, "I want to listen."

Look, even Li Yan knows how to listen.

Wu Limei looked at Li Jianxiong and glared at him: Take care of your disobedient son!

If it were in the past, Li Jianxiong would definitely stand on his wife's side without hesitation and deprive Li Yan of his freedom.

Coincidentally, ever since he was invited as the parent last time, or in other words, ever since he discovered that his son's position as a father was not as high as that of a sister with whom he had no blood relationship, Li Jianxiong seemed to suddenly realize that he did not care enough about his son, and tried every means to narrow the distance between them.

He even secretly asked Gu Yunsu several times, wanting to know how to win his son's favor and trust.

How would Gu Yunsu know? She herself was confused and had no idea whether she was someone Li Yan could trust and have a good impression of.

But Li Jianxiong was really pitiful. He kept asking questions over and over again like Xianglin Sao, so I could only give him some advice: "Games, he likes playing games the most, play with him twice." Or "Don't you know what your son likes? What's the point? Treat him to a meal!"

So these days, Li Jianxiong has either been accompanying his son in and out of Internet cafes, or taking his son to try out restaurants of all sizes in the city. It is not known whether the relationship between the two has become closer, but Li Jianxiong has visibly gained several pounds and has become addicted to "eating chicken".

But no matter what, he dared not mess with his son and daughter, and his wife was even more precious to him. With a family of five, he was at the bottom of the food chain. Face was a small matter. The problem was... he really had no idea what to do.

Li Jianxiong was so anxious that he was sweating. He just held his wife's hand and said hesitantly, "Meimei..."

Wu Limei didn't know whether it was because of the infuriating fetal movement or because of intestinal discomfort. She covered her stomach and glanced at her daughter: "I won't tell you! I'm so angry that my stomach hurts."

A pregnant woman is more important than anything else.

Although the argument was confusing and neither side had yet to put forward their arguments, Gu Yunsu did not dare to argue anymore. She quickly got up and helped her mother back to the bedroom, then fled back to the attic.

Someone shared Wu Bai’s “Last Dance” in the circle of friends.

Gu Yunsu usually avoids trends because she doesn't want to develop a herd mentality, so she becomes even more indifferent to popular crazes, stubbornly waiting for the trend to pass before she can tell good from bad. But even she couldn't bear to dislike this song.

This is a song from the past, and those who feel reluctant to let go will probably like it.

Gu Yunsu clicked on the link and played the song on loop.

"The love you gave me, the sweet pain, locked me up deeply, and my vulnerability could not be hidden..."

The lyrics are well-written and they touch Gu Yunsu's heart directly.

What Gu Yunsu hates most is quarreling with others. Although he is fearless when quarreling, the emptiness after the quarrel always makes people feel infinite melancholy and aggrieved.

At this moment, there is no one to complain to, because the person who can complain the most is "thinking about it" in another city.

With that said, grievance? ? grievance, it's like grievance multiplied by infinity, and I feel even worse in my heart.

Ever since Xu Wenbin went on a business trip, the two of them haven't been able to have a good talk again.

The two had a very bad communication during the trip. First, Xu Wenbin called Gu Yunsu on the phone, but he was typing on the computer and didn't hear it. After Gu Yunsu did a lot of psychological preparation and called back, the other party answered and just said "I have a meeting" and hung up. After that, Xu Wenbin called back, but Gu Yunsu was angry and didn't answer.

It wasn't that Gu Yunsu was deliberately making fun of her, she was just genuinely angry and couldn't believe that the other party could be so busy.

He must be making up an excuse to hide from me!

Hurt girls are most likely to make the most of things: he blames me, he has lost interest, he wants to get rid of me with cold violence, and he makes excuses not to let me die happily, it's the most hateful thing!

As soon as she got emotional, she began to imagine how the other party would retaliate against her. Cold violence was the first step, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, he would go to his ex, or like Qin Yuxuan, bring out another backup to catch her off guard, which would be really amazing, letting her know that she had been kept in the dark all along, that the tenderness and love she thought she had were not there at all, everything was a lie, a joke, and she would always be the one being teased.

Thinking about it, she felt particularly angry. She had always been a person who was selfless and had no worries. It was Xu Wenbin who took the initiative to provoke her, causing her to take so many steps forward without realizing it. As a result, she accidentally took such a small step to the fork in the road, and the other foot was still in the original direction, but the other party turned around coldly and left. Wasn't he too heartless and unreasonable?

If that's the case, why should we give her a little love, bring out her vulnerability that she never shows to others, and cause this sweet harm?

Damn, Teacher Wu Bai is really a poet.
