Chapter 3 Changes to Each Other
Since childhood, Gu Yuanzhi rarely educated Gu Nianxi in front of others, this was the first time he reprimanded her in front of outsiders, perhaps because of his dissatisfaction with Gu Nianxi's refusal to return to China, in short, Gu Yuanzhi's face was red in the face when he said what Gu Yuanzhi said just now.
Gu Nianxi looked at her father, and a wave of grievances swelled in her heart, and the pain in her heart was unspeakable.
Except for Zhao Ziti, no one knew about her past with Su Yuheng in New York, and no one knew that they had a marriage that lasted only half a year.
In the past few years with him, no matter how wronged she was, she didn't tell anyone about them, even Lin Yiduo, she didn't reveal half a word, now her pain, her grievances, can only be carried by herself, and her wounds can only be healed by herself.
How could they possibly understand her.
She has now become a mentality that only cares about making money and looks down on everything, who is it thanks to?
When they condemned her, how could they understand what had happened to her now?
Two years ago, she was trampled on with money.
In six years, she was let down in her youth.
Before the age of twenty-four, the past she experienced made her no longer dare to believe in love, nor dare to accept a creature like a man.
They must not believe that it was the perfect Ah Heng in their eyes who gave her a bloody lesson.
After she met this man, she not only caught up with her youth, but also almost took her life.
Therefore, if you don't know the suffering of others, why persuade others to be kind.
"It's good if she's happy."
Faintly, a voice came from the opposite corner.
Gu Nianxi's shoulders trembled, and he licked his lower lip nervously.
"Just do what you love."
Su Yuheng's relief made Gu's father stop talking, Gu Nianxi looked over unceremoniously, and looked at Su Yuheng with a meaningful gaze, her indifferent eyes stayed on Su Yuheng's face for a few seconds, and then lowered her head, and the corners of her mouth raised a sneer.
Who is he pretending to care about her here? He shouldn't have had an awkward relationship with Zhao Ziti and used her as a shield.
Come to think of it, wasn't her concept of the supremacy of money taught to her with a villa and an alimony? When he asked Zhao Ziti to talk to her about divorce, why didn't he care about her feelings.
At this time, as soon as Gu Nianxi saw his face, he thought of what Zhao Ziti said to her back then.
"Ah Heng said, this is to make up for the loss of your youth, he said that you will be with him at the age of twenty, and you can't treat you badly, he asked me to persuade you, you are still young, you can start over, take these to live the life you want, Niannian, in fact, you don't lose money if you think about it, some people can't earn this money in their lifetime."
Is she asking for money? She had been with him for more than three years, and all she wanted was him, but in the end she got a villa, a check for five million dollars, and a scar.
The dinner is coming to an end, and the time is half past eight, and the elders are still chatting, during which they will ask their juniors to talk about the topic.
During the banquet, Su Yuheng still sat there as quietly as before, he was silent, arrogant like a green pine standing on the top of the mountain, he did not take the initiative to participate in the conversation of the elders, nor did he interact with others, as if hiding in his gloomy space, isolated from the outside world.
Gu Nianxi, who was sitting opposite him, was also like a shell with his soul removed, and the confidence he had disguised before was gone at this moment.
They are not far apart, but they seem to be separated by a world.
The red wine in front of her was shaking, Gu Nianxi poured the wine into her mouth one after another, she who had planned not to drink tonight, drank nearly half a bottle of wine under his hot gaze, Gu Nianxi supported her chin, staring straight at the red wine glass, obviously drunk.
For Gu Nianxi, every minute and every second of sitting here was torment, she listened listlessly to the elders chatting about those old things, and all she thought about was how to escape from this predicament.
"Ah Heng, you are very surprised that Uncle Zhao will come today, come, accompany your uncle for a drink." Father Zhao greeted Su Yuheng with a smile.
Su Yuheng didn't reply, politely picked up the wine glass, and drank it all, his eyes were always staring at Gu Nianxi, and when he saw her who was now a little more mature, he suddenly felt a little sad.
She cut off her waist-length hair, and now her shoulder-length hair makes her look capable, but she has lost the innocence she once had, and her eyes have lost their brightness back then, which is covered with sharp edges.
In the past, she always liked to wear short dresses, but now she is dressed as a professional woman, with a white shirt on the top and a high-waisted skirt on the bottom, and her gestures exude the charm of a mature woman.
She matured, but she was no longer the girl who belonged to him.
"Niannian, listen to your father, you want to go to country X to be a doctor without borders?"
Father Zhao turned the topic to Gu Nianxi again, and then, in response to her desire to go to Country X, a group of people expressed their opinions, and everyone praised and worried about her ideas.
"I didn't agree at first, how dangerous it is there, but her father actually supported her, my family Gu Yuanzhi said, our daughter is great love, Nian Nian can have such a great love, he is proud and proud." Gu's mother said with a bitter face: "Hey, she is also older, and there are some things she decides to do, we can only support them silently." ”
Gu Nianxi was grateful for her parents' openness and support, she smiled slightly, and said to her parents: "Mom and Dad, I haven't decided yet, but Mike invited me." ”
“Mike?” Lin Yiduo had insight into this name that he had never heard Gu Nianxi mention.
A table of people looked at her, including Su Yuheng.
"Mike is a friend." Gu Nianxi hurriedly explained.
"Friends?" Lin Yiduo pushed her, with an expression on her face that she looked at you and made it up, "Is there anything good you want to share with us?" ”
Gu Nianxi didn't explain or deny, he only gave Lin Yiduo a guessing expression. In fact, she pretended to be false in order to show the person diagonally opposite, just to let him know that she was doing well without him.
"Nian Nian is really great, I really didn't go to country M in vain, what kind of experience made you have such great love, tell us about it."
Zhao Ziti's yin and yang weird attitude was very uncomfortable, Gu Nianxi frowned slightly, and was just about to fight back, but was startled by a voice.
"I disagree!"
Everyone looked at the owner of the voice, and saw Su Yuheng holding the wine glass in his hand, his eyes staring at Gu Nianxi fixedly.
"Don't go."
Gu Nianxi's heart chuckled, maybe she was the only one on this table who could read his eyes, and his pleading gaze made Gu Nianxi lose his mind.
"Ah Heng?" Seeing the situation, Zhao Ziti hurriedly shook Su Yuheng's hand, showing extreme enthusiasm, "What did you say?" ”
This move was seen by Gu Nianxi, and the next second she looked away, Su Yuheng pulled her hand away from Zhao Ziti's palm.
Gu Nianxi's face flushed angrily, was he expressing his opinion as an ex-husband? That's ridiculous.
"I'm not a little girl anymore, I can make my own decisions, and I don't bother Mr. Su to worry about it." Gu Nianxi looked ahead, and didn't look at Su Yuheng with his eyes.
"Nian Nian, your Mr. Su shout is really out of sight, didn't you always call Brother Ah Heng before? Why do you change your name to Mr. Su now? Gu's mother said.
“……”
Gu Nianxi was speechless, she didn't know how to explain, so she simply remained silent.
Just as Su Yuheng was about to say something, Zhao Ziti took the words.
"I remember that when I was a child, I also followed Zimu and called my brother and brother, and now I don't call it like that, I should have grown up, I'm embarrassed to shout."
