As I wish?
Xia Hong's eyes flickered, and at the same time, she opened her mouth several times, but the words that were about to come out of her throat could not be heard.
Gu Ziling curled her lips coldly, her gaze filled with an increasingly unwavering determination.
Xia Hong felt like a fish being roasted on a stove, unable to struggle.
but....
After finally catching her breath, she said, "No, Gu Ziling!"
Can't?
Her chin was grabbed by the man again: "Xia Hong, you have no right to say no to me! Blame yourself for not cherishing me back then!"
Is that what you mean?
Xia Hong shook her head: "Gu Ziling, you really can't."
How could you forgive so easily?
Xia Hong has never forgiven herself over the years, and of course she will never accept forgiveness from others. She will just have to bear the consequences herself!
The man in front of me is clearly more suited to another good woman!
......
Oh.
After a while, a cold snort came from inside the car, and Xia Hong's chin suddenly felt painful from being pinched.
"Nothing is impossible, Xia Hong, you can't decide!"
Be a good boy and listen to me, or... the consequences...
Even without explicitly stating the last two words, everyone could understand the unspoken message.
"Gu Ziling!"
Xia Hong shouted angrily, "This man, how can he not understand good advice?"
"Enough!"
Having become a minister at such a young age, how could Gu Ziling not see through the woman's intentions?
But, oh...
When did Minister Gu, a man of great stature, need to listen to a woman?
Xia Hong was a little confused when she was suddenly yelled at.
You know, even when things got to the point where there was no way to turn back, this man never dared to yell.
I couldn't help but sigh a few times. If saying anything is useless, then I might as well not say anything at all.
Gu Ziling finally stopped pressuring him and started the car again, heading towards the manor.
The two remained silent throughout the journey, and the car was eerily quiet.
Several times, Xia Hong wanted to say something, but in the end, she swallowed her words under the man's cold expression.
No movement could escape a man's eyes.
The rearview mirror had already seen everything.
However, Gu Ziling knew very well that she couldn't push the woman beside her too hard at this time, so for now, this was the only option.
However, there's plenty of time in the future.
There's plenty of time.
This is it, I'm going to stick with this for the rest of my life!
...
The car drove for nearly an hour before returning to the outside of the manor.
The old man and his entourage had arrived long ago and were chatting with Grandma Hui inside.
In the kitchen, Yingying, Ye's mother, and her biological mother took over the cooking duties.
The two little ones were already having a blast playing outside.
The manor was large enough, and guards were stationed around it, so the adults felt quite at ease.
The two little people ran around chasing each other in the manor.
"Brother Jiu, hurry up! Come chase Tuanzi..."
The little man's voice penetrated the outside and reached Minister Gu's ears, who had just arrived at the door. Xia Hong naturally heard it as well and couldn't help but feel delighted.
"Is it a dumpling?" he asked.
Gu Ziling nodded:
"It should be correct! Let's get out of the car. The kids are playing inside, so we won't drive in."
Xia Hong unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car, while Gu Ziling had already opened the manor gate.
The two little ones playing inside stopped when they heard the sound:
"Huh?" Xiao Jiu looked at Gu Ziling and Xia Hong who came in with a puzzled expression.
And the little dumpling, after seeing the two figures:
"Second Uncle? Aunt Xiaxia?"
The momentary daze lasted only a few seconds. When they came to their senses, the little dumpling had already run off.
