Chapter 942 I am the White Moonlight (V)
"Wanqing?"
Zeng Hongmin was dumbfounded. He really didn't understand why his junior sister was so cold to him.
It was obvious that the junior sister was very close to him before.
She would call herself "senior brother" in a soft and sweet voice, and would listen to him reading his works with a smile.
She could understand the lyrical expression he wanted to express, and could also understand his confusion, his helplessness, and his pain.
Gu Qingcheng: ...Gu Wanqing was just being polite and didn't say anything cold to you.
After all, he is a student of my father and a guest visiting me, so I shouldn't be too rude to him.
After all, he is well-mannered and doesn't know your dirty thoughts.
However, this became one of the evidences of Gu Wanqing's "green tea" - she didn't refuse with a clear attitude! "Most people who say this are Lu Zhishen online and Lin Daiyu offline."
Gu Qingcheng complained to Huoshui in a cold voice: "Humans are social animals, and as long as they live in society, they will inevitably have interpersonal relationships and social etiquette."
Guests are welcome. As the host, even if you do not approve of the guest’s character, you will not kick him out as long as he has not broken off relations with you.
For example, everyone hates mistresses, and on the Internet, they are criticized in various ways.
But if your friend or colleague is a mistress, and she actively visits you and hasn't offended you, you won't really act like an enemy! This is the way of the world!
It is because no matter how rubbish that person is, it has nothing to do with your own interests, so why offend him for no reason?
Gu Wanqing should have the same thought - she just regarded Zeng Hongmin as a student of her father, and whether he was a scumbag or not had nothing to do with her! However, she underestimated Zeng Hongmin's shamelessness and the prejudice of the world.
Attracting bees and butterflies, it is obviously a problem between bees and butterflies, but people will blame the flower for blooming so brightly! However, Gu Qingcheng will not deliberately show anything. She will stick to the original owner's personality and treat Zeng Hongmin as an outsider.
So, she openly held hands with her fiancé and left in a friendly manner, without considering Zeng Hongmin's reaction at all.
As for whether Zeng Hongmin extended his hand to Erkang or turned into the Stone Looking at His Wife after she left, it had nothing to do with her.
Wei Jingxi saw all of this. He originally wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed it back.
There's nothing to ask.
Wan Qing treated Zeng Hongmin as a "senior brother" who had a wife and children.
As Gu's father was a well-known scholar in the country and a professor at a university, apart from his legitimate disciples, there were countless people who sought his advice.
These people are basically Wanqing’s senior and junior brothers.
Wan Qing probably thought Zeng Hongmin was just one of them, nothing special.
Oh no, that's not right! Zeng Hongmin is still "special" because not all of his senior brothers and junior brothers have wives and children, and not every senior brother can force his wife to have an abortion or divorce when she is pregnant! Wanqing is a woman, and when she hears similar stories, she will instinctively lean towards the same sex.
Just like as a man, when you hear that another man has three wives and four concubines, you will instinctively "understand" it.
Wanqing must have heard about what happened to Ms. Lin, which is why she was so disgusted with her "senior brother" who she used to have some friendship with.
Thinking of this, Wei Jingxi didn't want to mention the topic related to Zeng Hongmin anymore, but he couldn't help but ask: "Wanqing, do you know Lin Mujun?"
"I know! I've met her before. She's a gentle yet strong woman."
Gu Qingcheng said with a mixture of truth and lies: "I heard that she has never been abroad and does not know foreign languages."
"I followed the instructions of my elders and came to the Ugly Country thousands of miles away with only a maid."
She was unfamiliar with the place and couldn't speak the language. Worst of all, her husband, the person she should rely on the most, was an epic scumbag.
Zeng Hongmin hated Lin Mujun and was very disgusted with her arrival.
He simply left Lin Mujun alone in the apartment, without any company or guidance.
He didn't even think about how scared and helpless a woman who had never been abroad would feel, and what difficulties and desperate situations she would face when she came alone to a country where she didn't speak the language.
He simply let Lin Mujun fend for himself.
Fortunately, Lin Mujun is a woman who is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, and she is also very smart.
Since I couldn’t speak the language, I tried my best to learn from the neighbors around me.
Less than three months after arriving in Ugly Country, she was already able to carry on daily conversations.
Lin Mujun also wants to study and try to keep up with her husband.
At this time, she became pregnant.
As for Zeng Hongmin, no one knew what had stimulated him, but he insisted on divorcing Lin Mujun.
When Lin Mujun told him about her pregnancy, he said two words very coldly: Abort it! Then came the "classic" train argument.
Lin Mujun was completely desperate and no longer had any illusions about Zeng Hongmin.
"…Plus, she has a really great brother who always loves and supports her!"
After Gu Qingcheng finished speaking, she said with emotion, "It's not easy to be a woman. Having a relative who truly loves and cares for you is a blessing in disguise!"
Wei Jingxi looked at Gu Qingcheng deeply, "So, that's why you hate classmate Zeng so much?"
Sympathy for one's own kind?
Or was it pure sympathy? Gu Qingcheng collected her thoughts and smiled, "I just wonder how there can be such a heartless person in this world?"
"If you don't like arranged marriages, then fight hard before you get married."
"As a result, they got married, entered the bridal chamber, and had two children—"
There was a flash of obvious confusion and contempt in Gu Qingcheng's originally clear and pure eyes.
She really looked down on Zeng Hongmin, and her disgust for him came from the bottom of her heart.
Wei Jingxi: ...I was also confused. I was actually worried that Wanqing would really look at Zeng Hongmin differently because of his talent.
"Forget it. After all, it's someone else's family affair. It's already very rude of us to talk about it behind their backs."
Gu Qingcheng seemed not to notice Wei Jingxi's change of mood, and she suddenly ended the topic.
There was no mention of Zeng Hongmin in any of her words, but every word she said revealed her unfamiliarity with this man.
They are really unfamiliar! Moreover, Gu Qingcheng has been releasing her original appearance without leaving any trace.
The original owner was a beauty, with a cool and unique temperament.
With the blessing of the beautiful Gu Qingcheng, she becomes more dazzling and charming.
Gu Qingcheng did not reveal herself completely as soon as she came here.
Instead, it is a slow, step-by-step "transformation".
She was like a blooming rose, always beautiful, but at the moment of blooming, she was extremely beautiful! Wei Jingxi stared at Gu Qingcheng blankly, with a familiar yet slightly strange feeling.
He knew that Wan Qing was beautiful, but, unknowingly, Wan Qing was so beautiful that she was stunningly beautiful and a disaster for the country and its people.
Her beauty transcends gender and bridges cultural differences.
It's the kind of thing that would make anyone who sees it stare in amazement.
Fascinating!
My heart is pounding! No wonder a married man like Zeng Hongmin has such delusions.
Such a divine face would make people addicted to it without any seduction.
"...Well, that's really rude!"
It took Wei Jingxi a long while to calm himself down. He responded and completely ended the topic about Zeng Hongmin.
Wan Qing is right, these are “other people’s” family affairs, and they have their own “troubles”.
Back in the apartment purchased by the Wei family, Wei Jingxi and Gu Qingcheng picked up the phone in the living room and started dialing numbers.
It was a coincidence that Gu's father received an invitation from a university in the Ugly Country and came to the Ugly Country for academic exchanges at the beginning of this month.
However, the university that Gu's father went to was in another city.
Wei Jingxi directly called the university where Gu's father studied.
After several minutes of transfer, Wei Jingxi finally got through to Gu's father.
First, he asked about Gu's father's health and life. After the greetings, Wei Jingxi brought up the topic: "Father-in-law, I don't think Wanqing has much room for development in the Department of Architecture. I want her to transfer to other majors!"
Father Gu: ...I am old, not confused!
What the future son-in-law said sounded outrageous.
Father Gu watched Wei Jingxi grow up since he was a child and knew that he was a steady and down-to-earth child.
People who study science are the most rational, logical, and like to plan everything they do.
Changing majors in your senior year? This is a completely irrational and impulsive behavior.
There is neither logic nor planning, and it is simply not something Wei Jingxi could do.
"What major is Wanqing going to switch to?"
Father Gu was too lazy to care about the little thoughts of the young couple, he asked the core question directly.
Wei Jingxi: ...
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
This is what is meant by "people become more sophisticated as they grow older".
Their little schemes could not be hidden from their elders at all.
However, Father Gu did not reveal it, nor did he intend to stop it directly, so Wei Jingxi told the truth: "Finance Department!"
Father Gu: ...
Someone who studies art suddenly starts playing stocks?
This is like asking his son-in-law to give up experiments and start writing novels.
absurd!
Nonsense!
But... alas, after all, she has a husband's daughter, and Wei Jingxi is the most important person in her life from now on.
Jingxi agreed and helped to cover up. Gu's father felt that as an old father, he should not interfere too much.
The most important point is that the young couple has probably already made the decision, and now it’s just a matter of notifying them.
If I were to try to stop them, I would be a fool! "...Okay! Just make your own decision!"
For a woman, the right thing to do is to support her husband and raise her children.
It doesn’t matter what you study. It’s enough to marry Jingxi and live a down-to-earth life in the future.
Father Gu is so contradictory.
He absolutely loves his only daughter, but deep down he still believes in the old-fashioned ways.
"Thank you, father-in-law!"
Wei Jingxi hurriedly thanked him and asked his father-in-law if everything was going well and when he would return in the future.
When Father Gu mentioned his visit, his mood suddenly became much more excited: "Yes, I have reached some agreements with XX University this time. In the future, we can send more students to study at XX University!"
Although Mr. Gu is traditional, he also yearns for the advancement of Western education.
It will enable more students to go abroad and learn advanced knowledge from other countries, so that they can better serve the country after returning home.
"Great, father-in-law, this is a good thing!"
Wei Jingxi was truly happy for his father-in-law and also for other students in the country.
The father-in-law and son-in-law chatted for a long time. In addition to Wei Jingxi greeting Gu's father, Gu's father also did not forget to ask Wei Jingxi about his schoolwork and future plans.
"It's good to return home! There is a lot of work to be done in the country, and your father needs talents like you!"
"...Experimental equipment? Well, you should buy some. I have some money on hand, I'll give it to you in a couple of days!"
The biggest mission of this visit has been completed, and it is time for Gu's father to return home.
He originally wanted to visit his daughter and son-in-law before returning home, and now that he has the excuse of "giving money", he is even more determined to come.
"Thank you, father-in-law!"
Wei Jingxi truly regarded Gu's father as his own elder, and since an elder's gift could not be refused, he had no excuse to decline it.
Say thank you cheerfully and your elders will also be happy.
"Humph, if you don't know, you would think you are my father's biological child."
Gu Qingcheng crossed her arms across her chest, pouted, and murmured jealously.
"My father-in-law loves me so much! He loves you, so he values me."
Wei Jingxi did not tease his fiancée, but smiled and helped his father-in-law explain.
In fact, this is true! No matter how traditional and patriarchal Gu's father is, he can still distinguish between relatives and outsiders.
For example, in the word "son-in-law", the character "女" comes first.
Only if you have a daughter can you have a son-in-law.
Valuing the son-in-law and being nice to him is only to enable him to be nice to his daughter.
If a son-in-law is like this, let alone a "student".
Three days later, Gu's father arrived.
He stuffed a bank check into Wei Jingxi's hand, then grabbed Gu Qingcheng's ear and gave her a good beating.
"I know Jingxi loves and cares for you, that's why I tolerate your nonsense! But you also have to understand the rules and reason, and not be arrogant because of your favor."
"You're already a senior, graduating soon, but you suddenly want to change your major—"
Gu's father was used to being a teacher, so he was able to discipline people naturally and fluently.
Gu Qingcheng listened to the lecture obediently and did not dare to refute a single word.
As for the possibility that she might not be able to get her degree certificate, she did not say anything.
What's the point of saying it? It just adds one more person to be angry and sigh.
"Dad, I know, don't worry, I know everything!"
Be good!
I will be good.
Father Gu: ...No way! My own daughter knows herself well. She is a gentle person with a strong character.
But the son-in-law also indulges him.
Oh, what a happy trouble.
However, soon, the real trouble came——
"Sir! You are here!"
Zeng Hongmin was also well-informed. As soon as Gu's father arrived at the young couple's apartment, he rushed over after hearing the news.
Father Gu doesn't know that his daughter has already drawn a line between herself and Zeng Hongmin. Father Gu still likes this excellent student very much.
Seeing him come to greet him respectfully, Father Gu also smiled and said, "Hongmin, I heard you have a new work?"
It has also been noticed by publishers in the U.S. and they are already discussing cooperation.
Mr. Gu has a common problem of this era and has a certain degree of worship of foreign things.
This is not his problem, but a characteristic of the times.
The main reason is that the country is weak and its people inevitably feel inferior.
Being noticed by foreign publishers and having your works published abroad is definitely a commendable thing.
Gu Qingcheng couldn't bear to see Zeng Hongmin being praised by Gu's father, so she suddenly asked, "Mr. Zeng, where is your wife, Ms. Lin?"
