Chapter 312: Desire to Control

Gu's mother glared at the other party unhappily, "What nonsense, what child is not noisy." ”

Tong Lu secretly gave Gu Chuan a look and signaled him to leave quickly, not to get involved in the battlefield between the husband and wife.

Holding the little bun and leaving Gu Chuan's old house, Tong Lu breathed a sigh of relief, she felt that the child was still taken care of by her side, so she was most at ease.

The next day, Tong Lu handed over the child to the housekeeper to take care of and left soon.

In the café, Tong Manli still came early, and Tong Lu wanted to ask her when she arrived several times, but she was obviously more than an hour earlier than before.

"You're here, I've got you some coffee." Tong Manli smiled and spoke, as if she expected Tong Lu to arrive soon, the coffee happened to be warm, and it was very warm to the touch.

Tong Lu nodded and thanked him, picked up the coffee and took a sip, it was obviously bitter coffee, but it was filled with a sweet smell when he drank it.

"I have something to tell you." After a while, Tong Manli raised her slightly bright eyes, she took out a document from her bag and handed it to Tong Lu.

"What's the matter?" Seeing the other party's serious and solemn face, Tong Lu felt a little strange.

"Let's take a look."

Tong Lu opened the file suspiciously, and after reading it, she was a little surprised, "You want to hand over the Tong family's assets to me?!" ”

Tong Lu didn't expect that the Tong family still had assets abroad, and there were quite a few!

"Yes, this was originally yours, I just kept it temporarily, and now I have found you, so I should return it to you." Tong Manli picked up the coffee and took a sip, her expression remained unchanged, "This also saves me a worry." ”

"But it's not a small amount." This is not as simple as tens of thousands of yuan can be transferred casually, but hundreds of millions of assets, Tong Lu hesitated, so much money, she felt a little unbearable.

"Don't be nervous, this is you."

Tong Lu shook her head, "I'll think about it, this matter is too sudden." ”

"It's okay, there's no rush in this matter anyway, you need some time to digest it well, I can understand it. Still, there's one thing I have to warn you about. Tong Manli's face suddenly became a little cold, she lowered her eyes slightly, stirring the bitter liquid in the coffee cup, "You better try to hide this matter from Gu Chuan, such a large sum of money, I don't dare to guarantee that outsiders will not make up their minds." ”

"Gu Chuan, he is not an outsider, and he won't fight this idea, I believe him." Although there is a lot of money, it is still far from enough compared with Gu Chuan's industry. If Gu Chuan wants to make up his mind, it is impossible to fight here.

"Tong Lu, the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, and Gu Chuan is not from our Tong family, do you believe him so much?" Tong Manli was obviously a little unhappy, and her tone suddenly became indifferent, "I heard that you are pregnant out of wedlock, such a man is too irresponsible." ”

"Auntie, this matter is not as simple as you think, he is not an irresponsible person......"

"Forget it, don't talk about the past. But since the first time I saw Gu Chuan, I felt that he was not an easy-going person, and his desire to control was quite strong, right? Tong Manli seems to have an inexplicable hostility towards men.

I don't know if it's Tong Lu's illusion, Tong Lu always feels that Tong Manli is not very optimistic about Gu Chuan.

"It's a little bit......" Tong Lu couldn't say it, but it was almost impossible to say that Gu Chuan had no desire to control.

"Tong Lu, I am your relative, so I only said these words to you today, as a woman, you should be independent, don't be attached to any man, don't be coerced by any man, you have to live your own life." Tong Manli persuaded bitterly, "Even if you give birth to a child, you can't revolve around the child and family all day long, so what is the meaning of your life?" ”

Tong Lu felt that this reversal was too fast, which made her a little unacceptable, and she replied a little embarrassed, "No...... Auntie, you think too much, I think I'm living a good life now, and there's nothing that makes me unhappy. ”

"It's been a year and a half since you've been pregnant, but you don't seem to be doing anything but circling around the baby, am I wrong?" Tong Manli shook her head and sighed, "Tong Lu, what do you think?" ”

Maybe because the other party is an elder, Tong Lu has a little more respect for her.

"Xiao Baozi is still very young and can't do without me, so I'm willing to give up my acting career for the sake of him for the time being. Of course, this is not forced, but the result of my careful consideration, the water in the entertainment industry is too deep and not suitable for me, I have already broken out of my own world there, and there is nothing to regret when I quit now. Although Tong Lu has not yet announced the news, she has already decided.

Tong Manli stared at Tong Lu's eyes for a long time, and found that Tong Lu did not have any weakness, her eyes were frank, she sighed, "It's okay, since it's your choice, then I will also support you." ”

Tong Lu didn't expect her to answer so simply, her eyes widened slightly, "But didn't you just persuade me not to revolve around the child?" ”

"Although I prefer you to be a free and independent woman, your heart is in the family, so it's not bad." Tong Manli lifted her wavy curly hair, charming and amorous, her figure has been well maintained, her face is exquisite, and she looks very international.

"Auntie, do you have a family?" Tong Lu asked suddenly, she had met her a few times, but she never mentioned much about her family.

With Tong Manli's age, it stands to reason that she should have started a family.

"Nope." Tong Manli smiled slightly, "I am an unmarried, I advocate freedom, I prefer to live a free life by myself, family is a burden to me, and I don't want any children, it's too troublesome." ”

Tong Lu burst out laughing, "No wonder when I saw you for the first time, it gave me a special feeling, which was a little different from ordinary women." ”

"Yes, I have settled abroad all the year round, so my personality is more Westernized, and I like a free and unrestrained life."

Tong Lu thought to herself, everyone has their own life they want, some people like to be lively and lively together as a family, and some people prefer freedom, Tong Lu can't tell what kind of life she likes, but she is satisfied to be able to chat and live with the children......

"It seems that you and Gu Chuan have a pretty good relationship." Tong Manli's eyes looked out the window, Gu Chuan just parked the car and walked towards the café.

Tong Lu didn't let him pick it up, but casually told him that he was going to drink coffee, and he was the one he went to most often, but he didn't expect Gu Chuan to find it.

Tong Lu was a little embarrassed, "It's not bad." ”

"Young people nowadays are so sweet, but Gu Chuan seems to be quite popular, you have to look carefully."

When the girls around and the coffee saw Gu Chuan walk in, they all showed expressions, and some of them wanted to go over to Gu Chuan to ask for a phone number, but because Gu Chuan's momentum was too strong, they didn't dare to come forward to talk.

Gu Chuan walked over and nodded lightly to Tong Manli, which was regarded as a greeting.

After Tong Lu said goodbye to Tong Manli, she soon left the café with Gu Chuan.

When in the car, Tong Lu hesitated for a while before speaking, "If someone suddenly tells you that you have a large amount of assets abroad and hope that you can inherit them, what will you choose to do?" ”

Gu Chuan tilted his head slightly to look at her, his gaze was deep and gentle, "If it's mine, then I'll accept it, if it's not mine, I won't take it." The person you're talking about is Tong Manli, right? And you are the one who is accepted. ”

Tong Lu smiled helplessly, and her smile looked a little beautiful and gentle under the light.

"I can't hide anything from you."

"Of course, I'm your husband. So am I solving the problem for you? ”

Tong Lu thought about it and nodded lightly, "Sort of." ”

A few days later, Tong Lu and Tong Manli met again in the café, Tong Manli asked about the asset again, and this time Tong Lu accepted it without hesitation.

"Aunt Lao, you've been in charge of me for so many years." Tong Lu spoke gratefully. "I'm willing to give a part of it as a reward to thank my aunt."

Tong Lu has no place to use money now, Tong Manli is her relative, and she feels that she should give away some of the money.

Tong Manli refused, "Your aunt has also had her own assets abroad over the years, so she is not short of money, since it is the property left to you by the Tong family, you can keep it for yourself, and you don't have to think about me." ”

Tong Manli seems to be a woman with a direct and generous personality, since she did not hide this matter from Tong Lu, did not take the assets for herself, but told Tong Lu about it at the first time, which shows that she does not covet the money.

Tong Lu admired Tong Manli a little, and was even more convinced that she really wanted to recognize her.

"You suddenly changed your words so quickly, it's because of Gu Chuan, right? Did Gu Chuan let you accept it? Tong Manli's charming eyes suddenly looked at Tong Lu.

"No, he just told me what to do, and it's up to me to accept it or not."

"That's not because he indirectly influenced you, you are too easily influenced by Gu Chuan."

Tong Lu was a little speechless, is this also an influence? And Gu Chuan is her husband, the person she believes, and there seems to be nothing wrong with her listening to Gu Chuan.

"Okay, let's not talk about these things, let's go shopping." Tong Manli suddenly put on a smiling face.

Tong Lu couldn't refuse her sudden invitation, nodded slightly, and the two quickly left the café.

Although Tong Manli was full of smiles, she felt that Gu Chuan was too much to manage, and she simply controlled Tong Lu's life firmly in her hands. For a woman like her, who advocates freedom, it is simply a bondage, not only in life, but also in the soul!

This feeling made her feel very painful, if she was Tong Lu, she would definitely break with Gu Chuan without hesitation.

Tong Lu walked into a clothing store, picked up a coat, stood in front of him and compared it, feeling good.
