Lin Che asked, Really? I thought that he couldnt have no money too.
Gu Jingze put his arm around Lin Che. Thats enough. This is none of our business. Lets go first.
Gu Qigang had spoken with Mu Wanqing for a long time. When they came out after finishing their conversation, they saw Gu Jingze holding Lin Che as she made her way down.
When he saw Gu Jingze, Gu Qigang sighed to Mu Wanqing, He has really grown up. He has already become the head of the household. In the future, my son will have to give me my funds.
Mu Wanqing scoffed. Its all because of you anyway. If you still insist on leaving, Ill make Jingze cut off your funds. Then, you will really have to be a beggar.
Gu Qigang hooked his arm through Mu Wanqings. Im not leaving.
It was not because of anyone else. It was because he suddenly felt that he definitely could not leave after seeing Mu Wanqing.
Mu Wanqing had only been eighteen when she first married him. People married early back then. The two of them lived together after their wedding. He did not think that Mu Wanqing was particularly appealing back then. She merely had a good family background and was beautiful too. He could get along with her but he had never felt much passion for her.
However, as time went by, warmth grew in place of passion.
At the time, Mu Wanqing would place his shoes in front of him when he went out and chat with him at night, lying in his embrace and listening to him talk about his day.
She was very patient and was the perfect listener.
In between, Gu Qigang had fallen in love with another woman but that was in the past. When he thought about it in hindsight, that had been a mere moment of passion. After the impulse had waned, he still felt that he would not leave Mu Wanqing.
Because he knew clearly who he wanted, after breaking free from his impulses, he still felt that Mu Wanqing was the woman suitable for him. If he lost Mu Wanqing, he definitely would not find a woman who made him feel as comfortable as he was.
What was love? Love was simply slowly understanding through daily life that the other party was the only woman he wanted and was irreplaceable to him.
He sighed and wound his arm around Mu Wanqing. Upon meeting her again after so many years, he wondered if it was too late to still want to be with her.
Fortunately, she had brought Gu Jingze up so well.
He smiled and said, Luckily, Jingze is the head of the household. Without me, you nurtured him so excellently. From now, we can retire and enjoy our leisurely lives playing with our grandchildren. We wont need to bother with family matters. Jingze can just deal with all the difficult issues.
Yes. Jingze is doing very well hes very outstanding too. Mu Wanqing looked proudly at his back.
Mu Wanqing had waited half of her life. Initially, she had blamed and resented her husband. Later, she eventually let go of these emotions. Towards the end, she actually remained in the Gu residence not because she was still waiting for Gu Qigang, but because she did not want to leave. She was not here only because of Gu Qigang; even without him, her life could still be of value here. It was also thanks to Gu Qigangs early departure that she was no longer a mere rich young heiress who did not know what was going on. Instead, she became independent. She had her husband to thank for this; he had indirectly given her her own life.
Everyone in the Gu family knew that Mu Wanqing was the mistress of the Gu family. Even if Gu Qigang was not around, no one dared to be disrespectful towards her either. This was all because she had her own value and did not depend on her husbands existence.
Gu Qigang looked at Gu Jingze and Lin Che.
Its great that our son didnt learn from me. It looks like he treats his wife very well.
Mu Wanqing said, Of course. I brought him up, so he will definitely be good to his wife. You havent seen the least of it. He protects her like shes his treasure. He wont even allow anyone to touch her. He gets jealous even when this mother of his touches her.
In spite of her words, her tone was upbeat.
She was not like other mothers-in-law who were extremely upset after their sons were snatched away by their daughters-in-law.
