188 Lady Diplomacy
After all, it is a woman, in such a world of men, it is acceptable to stay for a while, but if it is said that it is really tiring to accompany them all night to eat, drink and chat, Su Qiao is like this, and Mrs. Anthony, who is also a woman.
So, after the meal was almost full, Sucho followed Mrs. Anthony with Mr. Anthony's daughter to the wine table, and went to the sofa in the private room not far away to seek peace.
There were only three women, two adults and one child.
The others are all men, and the wine is getting stronger and stronger between pushing the glass and changing the glass.
Because Anthony likes Chinese culture very much, they can speak Chinese, of course, they are not very proficient, but basic communication is no problem, so they do not need a special translator for this trip, which is very trouble-free.
Mrs. Anthony is a very well-bred woman, and Su Qiao briefly chatted with her at the wine table before, but in just a few words, you can already get a glimpse of her character.
Sucho's evaluation of Mrs. Anthony is that she is a person with a high IQ and emotional intelligence.
If it weren't for such IQ and EQ, how could Mr. Anthony be infatuated and wait for so many years, and how could he still let Mr. Anthony be tempted by her on the premise of getting married and having children with her ex-husband.
The two sat down on the spacious sofa, away from the hustle and bustle of the men's world not far away.
Mrs. Anthony smiled and looked at Sujo,
"Mrs. Gu, can you tell me the story of you and Mr. Gu?"
Su Qiao was slightly stunned, and for a while he didn't quite understand what Mrs. Anthony meant.
It was Mrs. Anthony who laughed again,
"You must know that Mr. Gu is my husband's most satisfactory partner, and of course we investigated everything about Mr. Gu before coming."
Mrs. Anthony didn't say it very bluntly, but Su Qiao was also a smart and exquisite person, and she instantly understood what Mrs. Anthony meant, and Mrs. Anthony was indirectly trying to get her to give an explanation for the gossip between her and Gu Tingshen before.
At the wine table just now, in front of so many high-level officials of the Gu family, this topic was not suitable to be raised, so Mr. Anthony only stopped the topic after simply asking.
turned to Mrs. Anthony to ask Su Qiao in private, and had to admit that the couple had a tacit understanding and high emotional intelligence.
It's not embarrassing, and it's a good way to earn respect for yourself.
Su Qiao admired the high emotional intelligence of Anthony and his wife, and of course she was also very moved, moved that they saved face for her and Gu Tingshen like this.
Anthony and his wife have done this, and Su Qiao felt that there was no need to hide anything, so he simply told Mrs. Anthony about the matter between her and Gu Tingshen from beginning to end.
From the fact that she was with Gu Tingshen three years ago, to the two breaking up because of Gu's mother's opposition, including her pregnancy, and then what happened since she returned to China.
told Mrs. Anthony without any reservations, not so much that Sucho was explaining something to Mrs. Anthony, but that Sucho regarded Mrs. Anthony as an object to confide in, and in the process of her narration, her helplessness, her helplessness, her pain, and all her uneasiness in this difficult relationship, were all spoken without reservation.
Su Qiao didn't ask Gu Tingshen for advice in advance whether she wanted to tell others about their affairs in such detail, she just instinctively felt that Mr. Anthony and Mrs. were so benevolent and righteous, and she shouldn't hide anything.
The most important thing in getting along with people is to treat each other sincerely, isn't it?
After hearing all this, Mrs. Anthony couldn't help but hold her hand and sigh,
"I can understand the entanglement and pain of your relationship, because I have felt exactly the same way as you."
Mrs. Anthony was also ostracized by Mr. Anthony's family, after all, she was a divorced man with children, Mr. Anthony was already a giant in the French shipping industry at that time, and his family naturally couldn't accept him being with a woman like Mrs. Anthony, so there were all kinds of opposition at first.
Again, Mrs. Anthony said,
"I can also feel that you love Gu, if you don't love him, you won't have so much suffering."
It is precisely because of deep love that I don't want him to be caught in a dilemma between family and love, it is precisely because of deep love, I want to leave but I am reluctant, and I feel sorry for his dilemma if I don't leave.
Su Qiao hooked his lips and smiled relievedly,
"Thank you for understanding me."
Mrs. Anthony also sighed,
"Gu also loves you deeply, if you don't love him, according to his age and status, he would have already started a family in the real sense in the past three years when you studied abroad."
This is Mrs. Anthony's analysis of Gu Tingshen's thoughts, Su Qiao said it all the way, Mrs. Anthony can feel Gu Tingshen's deep love everywhere, originally there were many things that wanted to describe Gu Tingshen's thoughts, but when the words came to her mouth, she found that she wanted to say too much, and she didn't know where to start.
I don't know whether it should be said that Gu Tingshen fell in love with Su Qiao as early as when he proposed to let Su Qiao be his woman, or should it be said that Gu Tingshen let Su Qiao study abroad for three years and did not have any contact, just so that Gu's mother and Song Xuan would not disturb her, she really loved her very deeply.
So in the end, he just said that Gu Tingshen loved Su Qiao.
"I know ......"
After Mrs. Anthony finished speaking, Su Qiao replied softly.
She used to have low self-esteem, so she never thought that Gu Tingshen loved her, she felt that she was not worthy of being favored by a man as good as him, and that favor was still the most unique one in the world.
But in the days when she returned home three years later, she slowly began to believe in his affection for her.
From the time she returned to China to the present, her life has not been very peaceful, especially during this time, but it is precisely these unquiet things that have made her feel more and more Gu Tingshen's affection for her, which can never be matched by suitors like Liang Cheng.
Fortunately, it was Liang Cheng who did such a despicable thing, which made her more deeply understand Gu Tingshen's goodness, this is the so-called no comparison, no harm.
Looking up at Mrs. Anthony again, Su Qiao took the initiative to ask,
"And what do you think I should do now?"
Su Qiao took the initiative to learn from Mrs. Anthony, after all, Mrs. Anthony had such an experience as her, and now she is living happily with Mr. Anthony, Su Qiao feels that Mrs. Anthony can give a good answer.
Mrs. Anthony laughed, and the smile was very sincere,
"You've all gone through so many things together, isn't it a pity if you still insist on divorce?"
Su Qiao pursed her lips and didn't speak, and Mrs. Anthony continued,
"First of all, you have one heart with Gu, so that you can better overcome the obstacles that his mother has caused you, if his mother's side puts pressure on him, and your side does not stand with him, think about how hard he has to work."
Lady Anthony frowned again as she said this,
"Isn't there a saying in China that husband and wife work together to break gold?"
Mrs. Anthony's words made Su Qiao feel like he was sudden.
Yes, she has always played the negative side in this relationship, maybe because the psychological shadow of being hurt by Gu's mother three years ago was too heavy, and now no matter how Gu Tingshen persuaded her, she felt that Gu's mother would never accept her, and she would never like her, so she instinctively wanted to retreat, instinctively wanted to give up.
She also thought about repairing the relationship with Gu's mother for Gu Tingshen, but then Gu's mother's birthday banquet happened, and the courage she finally came up with was hit by Gu's mother again, and since then she has never thought about going down with Gu Tingshen.
Now, after Mrs. Anthony's little bit, Su Qiao realized how selfish she had been living.
In this relationship, all the pressure is Gu Tingshen's resistance, and she forces him to give up in addition to giving up herself.
How tired and tired should his heart be?
"Thank you so much, Mrs. Anthony......"
It was Su Qiao, who suddenly became brighter, looked at Mrs. Anthony and thanked her sincerely, and Mrs. Anthony smiled and shook her head,
"I just don't want to watch you take the detours I have taken, a lifetime is not long, and it is not easy for two people to walk together, spend your days enjoying love and enjoying life, instead of spending your days on arguing and fighting all day long."
Mrs. Anthony once resisted Mr. Anthony in various ways because of the opposition of Mr. Anthony's family, and she also delayed Mr. Anthony for several years.
It wasn't until the two were finally happy together that they realized how sorry it was that they had wasted time.
If she could turn back time and give her another chance to choose, she would definitely accept his affection confidently and calmly, always be with him, and not waste a second of her time.
That's why Mrs. Anthony treats Su Qiao like this with her, of course, it is also because Mrs. Anthony can feel that Su Qiao is a good girl, although she is young, she has a smart and delicate mind, and most importantly, she loves Gu Tingshen.
Nothing is more important than this, if she doesn't really love Gu Tingshen, Mrs. Anthony doesn't bother to care if they want a divorce or go on.
Fu Jingyu arrived in the middle of the meal, glanced at the conversation between Su Qiao and Mrs. Anthony in the other corner of the box, and couldn't help but smile and tease him after sitting down next to Gu Tingshen,
"Madame, is she doing a good job of diplomacy?"
Gu Tingshen's eyes immediately turned to Su Qiao's side, the girl was wearing a black dress, her face was beautiful, her temperament was like Lan, and her speech and demeanor were decent and generous.
The corners of his lips couldn't help but hook up a smile, and that smile was full of praise for that girl, and pride that couldn't be concealed.
