Chapter 170 Won't Let Go
"There is no problem between us!" Li Tingshen said anxiously, "I apologize for making you unhappy before, but I can assure you that I have never felt sorry for Yin Luoxue. I protected her just to get angry with you and Gu Xingzhi."
"But from now on, I won't use Gu Xingzhi to make trouble anymore. As long as you are happy, I can stop making things difficult for him. Gu Mian, as long as you are happy, no matter what you want me to do, I am willing to do it."
Gu Mian frowned slightly, "Just for a child, is it worth it?"
"Of course it's not for the child." Li Ting held her tightly in his arms, "It's for you, for our family. Gu Mian, even if there is no child, I will not let go..."
......
That night, Li Tingshen stayed in Yuhua Mansion, but he slept in the guest room.
Gu Mian did not agree to keep the child. He knew very well in his heart that Gu Mian now might not choose to stay with him for the sake of the child.
For the next two days, Li Tingshen stayed at home to take care of her.
Gu Mian seldom spoke to him, but she did not reject his care.
After breakfast, Gu Mian spoke up, "Go to work, don't delay your work."
“I can work from home.”
"I spend most of my time in bed and don't need any care. Mother Yang is enough for me."
"Okay, call me if you have anything."
"knew."
After Li Tingshen left, Gu Mian got up and went to the French window to bask in the sun for a while.
"Madam, have some fruit." Mother Yang came in with a fruit plate. "These are organic fruits that my husband ordered to be airlifted from the production area every day. Please eat more."
Gu Mian asked while eating, "Didn't grandma call?"
"I called the old lady. She was very happy to hear that you were pregnant," Yang's mother reported. "But she just told me to take good care of you and said she would not come to see you for the time being."
"Why?"
"The old lady said that once she came, she would show her expectation for the child, which would definitely put pressure on you."
"The old lady also said that if you still insist on getting a divorce or not wanting the child, she will respect your decision. After all, you still have a long way to go in the future and you shouldn't compromise for the sake of the child."
Sleeping eyes feel sore.
She knew how much old lady Li was looking forward to her little great-grandson.
But despite such expectations, in order to take her feelings into consideration, she did not come to persuade them to reconcile, and did not say anything like not to get a divorce for the sake of the children.
The cell phone suddenly rang. It was Gu Xingzhi calling.
Mother Yang quickly nodded and left.
Gu Mian calmed down and answered the phone, "Xingzhi."
"Mianmian, how are you feeling?"
"Much better. Are you still in Haicheng?"
"I'm back now. I didn't come to see you these past two days because I didn't want to disturb your rest."
"I'm much better, don't worry."
"Mianmian, congratulations, you're going to be a mother."
Gu Mian raised his hand and gently stroked his belly, "This child was beyond my expectations."
"Don't you want it?"
"I don't know." Gu Mian sighed silently, "I'm not sure whether this child is good or bad for this marriage..."
"Mianmian, I know that once you make a decision, you won't change it easily." Gu Xingzhi suggested, "If you really want a divorce, you might as well tell Li Tingshen that the child is mine."
"How can I do that?" Gu Mian refused without hesitation. "Such a lie will hurt him. I will never do that."
"So you see, you still care about his feelings." Gu Xingzhi smiled, "I just wanted to see your attitude, I didn't really want you to lie to him."
"Mianmian, you are a very emotional person. For the sake of your children, you have actually hesitated about getting a divorce."
"In that case, I think you can give Li Tingshen another chance, just for the sake of the child."
"Whether Yin Luoxue is dead or alive, this matter is in the past. Don't let such an insignificant person affect your judgment."
Gu Mian grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "I understand. I need to think about it carefully."
"Well, call me anytime if you need anything."
"good."
......
The phone suddenly vibrated. Gu Xingzhi glanced at the screen and saw that it was Li Tingshen's number.
"Mianmian, I have something else to do. I'll hang up now."
"good."
Gu Xingzhi switched the call, "Boss Li, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"I'll wait for you in the Shengshi Dynasty."
"What can't you say over the phone?"
"cannot."
Without waiting for Gu Xingzhi to speak, Li Tingshen hung up the phone.
Gu Xingzhi smiled, picked up his coat, stood up and left.
......
When Gu Xingzhi arrived at Shengshi Huangchao, Li Tingshen was sitting alone at the card table smoking.
Gu Xingzhi walked over and sat down opposite him. "Mr. Li, you are so busy, how can you have time to play cards with me in broad daylight?"
Li Tingshen picked up the diary at hand and threw it in front of him, "Is this yours?"
Gu Xingzhi curled his lips and said, "It seems that you have already read the contents inside."
Li Ting said coldly, "Conditions."
Gu Xingzhi frowned, "What?"
"Please give me a condition. How can I stay away from sleep?"
"Boss Li is really straightforward." Gu Xingzhi lowered his eyes and looked at the diary in front of him, "But what do you think can be used in exchange for this?"
"Now I'm asking you, and I'm also giving you a chance." Li Ting's deep and sharp eyes captured his face, "You know very well that I want you to die quietly, it's not difficult."
"Of course I know." Gu Xingzhi showed no fear, "But do you think Mianmian can accept it?"
"Even if you do it perfectly, she is a stubborn person. If I die suddenly, she will definitely find out the truth, just like she has never given up looking for me in the past five years..."
Li Ting curled his lips deeply, "I have never failed to get what I want."
"You already got it." Gu Xingzhi chuckled, "She had already decided to divorce, but now she's pregnant. Even God is helping you, isn't he?"
Li Ting took a deep puff of his cigarette and said, "It's good that you know."
This child was actually beyond Li Tingshen's expectations.
But he was extremely lucky.
Because of Gu Mian's determination, he was completely helpless.
This child undoubtedly gave them the opportunity and time to buffer their marriage, which was on the verge of collapse.
"As for conditions, I don't have any." Gu Xingzhi raised his eyes and looked at the man in front of him, "I only have one request, treat her well."
"She is my wife, I will naturally treat her well." The coldness in Li Tingshen's eyes became even stronger. "But you are not qualified to make such a request. Since you don't propose conditions, I will do it for you."
"The Leshi Group has been trying to expand its overseas market, while the MS Group's focus is overseas. I can help you expand your business and make the Leshi Group invincible. The condition is that you must go abroad and never come back!"
