Chapter 86: Misunderstanding cleared
Compared to sitting on the plane for more than ten hours, Gu Cheng from the airport to Tan Qian's house was really nothing, but he felt that it was so long.
When the white business car stopped at the door of the villa, Gu Mochen's relaxed mood suddenly became nervous, similar to the cowardice of homesickness, standing at the door and not daring to enter.
The white driver who was in charge of delivering him was holding his hand on the window, his head sticking out of the window, and shouted, "Hey, buddy, you forgot to take your bag!" ”
Gu Mochen realized that he was empty-handed, he didn't bring too many things with him this time, only a black travel bag. Probably because of nervousness, I forgot my bag in the car.
Gu Mochen turned back, and the driver took out the bag and threw it to him.
"Thank you." He took it with both hands.
Whoever thinks about it, when he turns around, he picks up the person he wants to see.
Tan Qian's wife pushed Tan Man in a wheelchair, and a little girl stood next to her, and the three of them should have just come back from outside.
The moment Tan Man saw Gu Mochen, he thought he was hallucinating.
Gu Mochen had contacted her several times before, and every time he proposed to come to the UK to see her, she refused, she didn't want to divorce and drag her feet, and she kept suffering from it.
After contacting again, Gu Mochen didn't mention coming to the UK again, because he knew in his heart that she had always said the same.
Now, why is he here? The Chinese New Year will be coming soon, Gu Mian has returned to China, if he has the heart, he should go to accompany his daughter, not come to her.
Gu Mochen carried a travel bag in his hand and walked towards her step by step.
Alisa couldn't figure out the current situation, neither advancing nor retreating, and looked at Gu Mochen in a daze, until he came closer. Tan Man was frank and met Gu Mochen's gaze: "You came to me, is there something wrong?" ”
Probably related to Gu Mian, it would not be that Gu Mian was going to marry Ji Lingchuan, right? alisa
As soon as the idea came to mind, she denied it herself, if the two of them got married, Gu Mian would definitely inform her in advance. Although she didn't want to return to China, if it was such a big event, she would definitely go back, and she didn't need Gu Mochen to come and pick her up in person.
Gu Mochen's empty hand grabbed the seam of the suit pants, and there was a sense of tension that had not been felt for a long time. In fact, he has been in a high position all year round, and he is used to handling everything calmly and calmly, and rarely has this feeling of being overwhelmed and not knowing where to put his hands and feet.
He cleared his throat, tried to restrain his complicated emotions, and said, "I'm here to tell you something very important. ”
Hearing this, Alisa proposed, "Why don't we go in and talk about it, it's not appropriate to stand at the door." ”
Tan Man had no objection, Alisa pushed the wheelchair into the villa, and the little girl followed quietly by her side, looking at Gu Mochen curiously.
Gu Mochen was the first time he set foot here after the divorce, and a long time ago, he and Tan Man brought Gu Mian over to visit.
Over the years, this place has long since become what it used to be, and there are slopes on both sides of the stairs that are wheelchair accessible. Entering the warm living room, he saw at a glance the elevators installed at home, which were specially designed for Tan Man. It is impossible for Tan Qian and his wife to be at home 24 hours a day, even if they are not there, she can go anywhere in the house alone.
Gu Mochen stared at Tan Man's legs, he remembered that Gu Mian had said that before returning to China, the doctor had diagnosed that her legs had improved greatly, so what about now......
Alisa poured a cup of tea and brought it over, then led her daughter to the study, leaving the living room for the two of them to talk.
Tan Man glanced at the figures of one big and one small leaving, lowered his gaze, and straightened the blanket on his lap: "Now that no one is bothering, just say anything you want." ”
Gu Mochen took a deep breath and slowly spit it out: "I owe you an explanation for what happened back then......
Tan Man's face changed suddenly, and he interrupted before he could speak again: "I said, the matter is over, don't mention it again, you don't need to explain anything, I'm very satisfied with the current state." You can see that I'm living well. ”
She pursed her lips as she finished speaking, maintaining the last bit of grace.
"No, you listen to me." Gu Mochen said, "That night in Jingyuan, I wasn't drunk, I didn't do anything, and that child wasn't mine. All this is a trap set by Pei Zhenyun, the purpose is to sit in the position of chairman of Tan Lu Group. ”
Tan Man furrowed his eyebrows, as if he had said something unbelievable.
Pei Zhenyun? Isn't he Gu Mochen's best friend? When they founded Tan Lu Group together, when they couldn't see any development prospects, Pei Zhenyun took out all his belongings and invested in it. In the next few crises, he never flinched and gave up, and accompanied them to the end.
How could it be that he did it?
"What I said is true." Gu Mochen held her hand, "I didn't do anything to be sorry for you, the biggest mistake I made was not to protect you well and let you be hurt." ”
Tan Man's expression loosened slightly, but it was only for a moment, she was not as simple as Gu Mian, what Gu Mochen said and believed. She pondered for a moment and said lightly, "What about the evidence?" ”
Gu Mochen: "It was Wen Shuya who said it herself, she was arrested for committing a crime, and she confessed everything she had done." I have asked people to secretly investigate Pei Zhenyun, if you don't believe it, you can wait for the results of the investigation to come out before judging. ”
Tan Man's eyelashes trembled, and he put on an indifferent look on his face, but his heart was actually shaken.
Gu Mochen knew her temper, there was no need to lie to her about this kind of thing, even if he wanted to lie to her, he would not wait until now.
Gu Mochen held her hand with more force: "I am also a victim of this matter. We've missed it for so long, and I don't want to miss it any longer, so I'm here to explain it to you and ask for your forgiveness. ”
He knew that it was impossible for Tan Man to have no feelings for him. They have been together since their school days and have a decades-long relationship foundation. chose to divorce because she couldn't rub sand in her eyes, and now that the sand is gone, they shouldn't be like each other anymore.
Tan Man looked at him and didn't speak for a long time.
Just when Gu Mochen thought that she would nod her head in agreement, Tan Man suddenly turned her face away, withdrew her hand, and her voice did not fluctuate: "You also know what the condition of my leg is, I am used to this kind of life, and I don't want to change." ”
Gu Mochen stood up and took a step back, Tan Man thought he was leaving, but in the next second, he heard him say, "You don't need to make any changes, the person who needs to change is me." ”
He is a man and should take the initiative to adapt to her life instead of making her change her habits.
——
Gu Mian, who was far away in Beijing, was still not at ease, even if Ji Lingchuan patted his chest and assured her that there would be no warmth, she still couldn't help but worry.
Gu Mian walked around the room with his mobile phone early in the morning, thinking about whether to make a phone call to ask how the situation was.
The misunderstanding was cleared up, and of course she hoped that her parents could be as happy as before.
Ji Lingchuan leaned on the sofa and read, but his girlfriend was dangling, and he couldn't read a word, so he scooped the person into his arms: "If you want to know, just call, what are you hesitating about?" ”
"You don't understand, if there's good news, Dad will tell me. He didn't call, which means things aren't going well. Gu Mian bit his lower lip, "I still want to be reunited as a family during the Chinese New Year this year, and it's best to call all the uncles and aunts abroad." ”
Ji Lingchuan was stunned for a moment, and expressed doubts about this plan: "What about me?" ”
"Didn't you say that there was no announcement at the end of the year, and you want to go back to your hometown to accompany your father for the New Year?" Gu Mian blinked, his eyes were extremely innocent.
Ji Lingchuan grinned, if it weren't for her obedient appearance, he would have wanted to tap her head with his fingers and ask her if she was a goldfish brain.
"I've called my dad and told me that I'm going to bring my girlfriend home for the Chinese New Year this year. Are you trying to leave me alone and kicked out by my dad with a broom? Ji Lingchuan paused and complained, "Gu Mian, you have no conscience. ”
The last sentence is often used by readers to ridicule Chang'anda, which was quoted by him.
Gu Mian paused, looked at the ceiling with his eyes, and said while recalling: "Yes, I forgot, you told me that you would take me back to see your father." However, you didn't tell me before that you were going back to see your father during the Chinese New Year, so what should I do, I'm so entangled. ”
Ji Lingchuan: "...... OK, it's my fault. ”
Anyway, the girlfriend is right, but he didn't tell her the specific time.
Just when Gu Mian was struggling with Ji Lingchuan to go home to see his father during the New Year, or to find another time to visit, Gu Mochen's call came.
It was late at night in the UK, which was one of the reasons why she didn't take the initiative to call her father, but she didn't expect her father to take the initiative to call.
Gu Mian was originally sitting in Ji Lingchuan's arms and wanted to stand up, but he was unable to move because he held his waist, so he had to adjust his sitting posture, honestly nestled in his arms, connected the phone, and said with concern: "Dad, have you reconciled with your mother?" ”
What answered her was a sigh, Gu Mian's heart tightened, and her expression froze.
Does Mom Refuse to Forgive Dad?
Gu Mochen said eloquently: "Your mother rejected me. I explained it to her, and she probably believed it, but she said that she was in a good state and didn't want to change. ”
Gu Mian was about to comfort his father, and he continued: "However, I will not give up. It wasn't easy to chase your mother in the first place, and I defeated a group of powerful rivals in love to be with her, and the difficulties in front of me were nothing to me. I called to tell you that Dad may not be back to China for a short time, and will stay with your mom in the UK until she is willing to accept me again. Sleep, good luck to Dad. ”
Gu Mian's expression changed several times, he was worried about it a second ago, but he felt funny at this moment.
"Dad, come on, I'll wait for your good news." She clenched her fists in encouragement.
The father and daughter ended the call, Gu Mochen glanced at the night sky outside the hotel window, and slept peacefully.
After he and Tan Man cleared up the misunderstanding, Tan Man didn't say much. His current identity is her ex-husband, so he was naturally embarrassed to live in Tan Qian's house, so he stayed in a hotel not far from Tan's house.
Gu Mochen woke up, the sky was already bright, London was still late, today's wind was blowing stronger than yesterday, and the temperature was a little lower.
He had a simple breakfast at the hotel, and then walked for almost twenty minutes to Tan Qian's house.
