Chapter 232: Multiple Choice Questions
In the box, Gu Changqing and Chen Yi sat opposite each other, and the tea master in Tang costume skillfully made tea for the two, and when the tea was almost ready, Chen Yi turned her head and said to her, "You go out first." ”
The tea master nodded and smiled, packed up his things and walked out of the private room.
Gu Changqing lowered his head slightly, looking at the gold-painted purple sand teapot on the table. The chrysanthemum pattern on the teapot is lifelike, and the hot air at the spout comes out, slowly fading, leaving a burst of tea fragrance.
On the other side, Chen Yi quietly looked at Gu Changqing in front of him. This is the second time she has seen her, the last time she met was at the birthday banquet, there were too many guests that day, and she didn't take a closer look at Gu Changqing, but she didn't seem to be the kind of woman who could make people shine.
Taking advantage of this opportunity today, she looked at her carefully, and saw that although she was not a bright ** person, she had a beautiful face, a calm temperament, and a peaceful eyebrow.
If this kind of woman is not good at falsification by nature, she has psychological problems, just like people often say double personality.
Either way, it's not the type of daughter-in-law she can accept.
Gu Changqing felt that the other party's gaze was cold and sharp, as if he wanted to penetrate everything, which made her very uncomfortable. If it were someone else, she could have walked away, why did she need to be so scrutinized by others? But the other party is Chen Yi, Feng Jue's mother, she can only sit here and let the other party see through it.
Neither of them said anything. The room was eerily quiet.
I don't know how long it took before Chen Yi slowly spoke, "Miss Gu, do you know that Feng Jue originally had a good opportunity to transfer this time......" Her voice was soft and serious, and there was a kind of majesty in her tone that had been in a high position for a long time.
Gu Changqing raised his head and looked at her, his eyes were dark, clear and bright, as if they contained countless things in his heart, which seemed to be terrifying. Chen Yi was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but imagine how her son felt when he looked at her eyes.
"Looking at Miss Gu's appearance, she doesn't seem to know about this?" Chen Yi said.
Gu Changqing said: "I haven't heard him say ......"
Chen Yi chuckled, looking a little helpless, "He won't say anything, he thinks about everything for you, he's afraid that you're worried, he's afraid that you won't feel comfortable in your heart, he won't say anything, and he will carry it down alone." ”
Hearing what she said, Gu Changqing's heart trembled slightly, "What happened?" ”
Chen Yi's face sank, and he looked at Gu Changqing coldly, with a hint of anger on his face. Then, she took a deep breath, picked up the purple sand teacup in front of her, took a few sips, and just after a while, she suppressed the anger that had surged just now.
During the whole process, Gu Changqing kept looking at her, and his heart kept sinking.
"Earlier, there was a problem with your Gu family, and the bank stopped your company's loan, and it was Feng Jue who found a way to help you solve this problem, right?" Chen Yi looked at her, his eyes were as cold as a knife, as if he wanted to penetrate her heart, "Your company breathed a sigh of relief because of this, you must have been very happy at that time." ”
Gu Changqing looked at her, his face turned slightly pale.
"When you feel relieved, have you ever thought about whether Feng Jue will be affected by this incident and whether it will bring him any adverse consequences?" Chen Yi looked at her, her voice getting deeper and deeper, "It seems that Miss Gu didn't think about it. Yes, you were very busy, and the Gu family was in danger at the time, so you couldn't take care of it so much. ”
Gu Changqing couldn't say a word. At that time, she really didn't think about it that much because there were too many things......
Chen Yi sneered, "Let me tell you what the consequences of this incident are." He clearly knows that this is a good opportunity for him, and he knows that he should not act rashly at this juncture, but he doesn't care about anything for you, and he is looking forward to a very important opportunity in our eyes, which is far less important in his eyes than your affairs. He did this to give others a good opportunity to attack him. So, someone else got this opportunity instead of him. ”
Gu Changqing's face was even paler, she could completely understand Chen Yi's feelings, because her mood at this time was not much better. She didn't dare to look directly at Chen Yi's gaze, she lowered her head.
Chen Yi clenched the teacup in his hand and snorted lightly, "Of course, you can't be blamed for this, this is our Feng Jue's voluntariness, he values you, is willing to think about you, and puts you in the most important position, as a mother, I have nothing to say." I am saddened and angry, but I know that it is not your responsibility."
Gu Changqing didn't expect Chen Yi to say that, and unexpectedly, he raised his head and said, "Auntie, in the future, I will definitely not let him be involved in my affairs again." ”
"Later?" Chen Yi looked at her and chuckled, "Miss Gu, are you still thinking about the future?" ”
Gu Changqing felt a pain in her heart, although she knew Chen Yi's intention, but when she faced it, it made her so uncomfortable, she told herself that she wanted to persevere, she told herself, never give up, she thought of all kinds of words to persuade the other party, but when she wanted to say it, she felt so powerless.
In the end, she couldn't say anything, but her face became more and more pale. She lowered her head and looked at the patterns on the table, which were tortuous and complex, just like the road of her relationship with him.
Chen Yi looked at her coldly, watched her face constantly change, watched her stop talking, kept struggling, and finally fell silent.
Chen Yi's face looked a little better, when she learned that her son had missed a good opportunity because of Gu Changqing, God knows how angry and disappointed she was, how could she still hold her breath and let this matter drag on any longer? She understands her son's stubborn temper, and it is impossible for him to take the initiative to give up, only to let the woman retreat from the difficulty, and take the initiative to leave now to see her reaction, and she is not like a stalker girl, finally she didn't say that they really love each other, otherwise, she must have refuted her on the spot
She took a deep breath and slowed her voice, "Miss Gu, I know my son, you can let my son treat you like this, I believe you have your own strengths." But I'll tell you the truth, I don't like you, not only because your status as a businessman has embarrassed us, not only because your family's scandal has made us lose face in front of our relatives and friends, and not only because your family has an adverse impact on Feng Jue's future development. It's because I don't think you can bring happiness to my son."
Every word in Chen Yi's words was like a thin needle, densely piercing into Gu Changqing's heart. Gu Changqing lowered his head and grabbed the corners of his clothes tightly with both hands.
Chen Yi looked at her and continued: "Marriage and love are mutual, what did you do when my son sacrificed for you and carried everything alone? Chen Yi looked at her, word by word, mercilessly, "When you were desperate to take revenge and cause such a big scandal, have you ever thought about whether our family will be affected by this?" When you insisted on going your own way, did you ever think about how much pressure Feng Jue took on because of this? Do you know that I have been in a cold war with him for two months? You know that he is a filial child, do you know how uncomfortable he is? You don't think that after you make so many troubles, our family will accept you, why do we have to bear these stains because of you? Or do you think that these should be borne by us, and they should be borne by Feng Jue, just because he loves you? ”
"That's not the case...... Gu Changqing raised his head, "I ......"
"So what?" Chen Yi interrupted her coldly, "In Feng Jue's heart, you are the first, but in your heart, Feng Jue is far less important than your hatred, when you decide to do these things, don't you know what the consequences of these scandals will be?" In fact, at that point, you've already made a choice between the two."
Chen Yi's every sentence was like a sword to her heart, ruthlessly picking out some facts that she deliberately ignored, piercing straight into the weakest part of her heart, and in an instant, there were thousands of holes.
Gu Changqing's face stiffened, his ears buzzed, and his body was cold for a while.
"I sympathize with your plight, and I understand your desire for revenge, and I don't think anyone who is hurt like this will give up. But you should understand that the consequences of your revenge have decided that you are no longer suitable for Feng Jue, no longer suitable for our family, you want the pleasure of revenge, and you want Feng Jue's warmth, you are not willing to let go, Miss Gu, I really want to ask you, why are you? You ask yourself, isn't your love selfish? You watched Feng Jue bear everything, you are so relieved? You may think that all this is Feng Jue's willingness, but you just enjoy his willingness so naturally? ”
Chen Yi said sentence after sentence, every word was fine, like a hammer hitting her heart heavily. Gu Changqing sat there, unable to find half a sentence of justification.
"Miss Gu, you should understand that you can't have both fish and bear's paws. You are young now, so you take love very seriously, but after five or ten years, you will find that love is really not so important in life. But Feng Jue has paid so much for your love, do you really have confidence that he will not regret it at that time? Chen Yi paused, then picked up the bag next to him, and said, "That's all I said, I believe you also understand what I mean." I know you're busy, so I won't disturb your time" After speaking, Chen Yi stood up and turned around to leave.
As soon as she took two steps, she heard Gu Changqing shouting behind her, "Auntie, please stay." ”
Chen Yi turned around, but saw Gu Changqing standing up and looking directly at her, his face was calm and pale, and his eyes were unusually black and bright, and he had to admit that Gu Changqing at this time had a very attractive quality.
"Auntie, I want to ask you, is it because of the scandal in my family that you won't accept me anyway?" Gu Changqing's hand under the table trembled uncontrollably, and her hands were tightly clenched to each other, so tight that her nails sank into the flesh, but she didn't feel the pain......
Chen Yi looked at her, was silent for a while, and then spit out two words very clearly, "not bad" and said: "Miss Gu, you may think I am cruel and ruthless now, but in the future, you will understand that it is far better to be neat and tidy than to get out of the water."
Gu Changqing looked at her for a while, and then said softly, "I know what to do." ”
Chen Yi showed her first sincere smile since they met, "I knew that Miss Gu was a reasonable person......
"But, Auntie......" Gu Changqing looked at her directly, his face expressionless, neither humble nor arrogant, "I decided to do this, not because I didn't have confidence, on the contrary, I believe that no matter in the past five years, ten years, or twenty years, whether it is me or him, I will not regret my choice." But you're right, since I have chosen revenge, I have to bear the consequences that come with it, and since you won't accept me, I won't make it difficult for him. No matter how much I like him, I, Gu Changqing, will not go to the point of wagging my tail and begging for mercy......"
She lowered her head, and her voice became soft, as if to say to her, as if to herself, "I don't understand what you said, I know I'm greedy, but both are so important to me, how do I choose?" He and I have been looking for a balance point to deal with the relationship between the two, and now I understand that this balance point does not exist at all......" Gu Changqing smiled, his smile was sad, and his face was even paler, "Life has to face countless multiple-choice questions, but some questions have no answers at all, since this is the case, then, I give up......"
After speaking, Gu Changqing stopped looking at her, walked past her, and walked straight out.
The second watch is going to be very late again, so go to bed early. I'll see tomorrow morning.
