Gu Tingjun's face didn't look good, and the bags under his eyes were green, as if he hadn't slept well.
When he walked to the restaurant, the old lady, Gu Xiyan, and Mo Xiaoxuan had already sat down.
"Mom!" Gu Tingjun walked up to Mrs. Gu.
"What's wrong with you?" Mrs. Gu looked at Gu Tingjun and could tell at a glance that he looked bad.
"It's nothing. I was doing some work last night and had a little rest."
In fact, it was because he was worried about Gu Nanyi's affairs that he didn't sleep much in the first half of the night. Even after he fell asleep, he dreamed of that girl coldly mocking him for not being a qualified father.
It was as if he was in a daze.
"Aunt Mei, go and pour a glass of light salt water for Sir."
"Yes, ma'am!" Aunt Mei turned and walked out of the restaurant.
Old Mrs. Gu said: "No matter how busy you are at work, you can't sleep too late. You are not a young person anymore. Good health is the most important thing. You have the worst disease and you can't stay up late."
"I see."
Gu Xiyan asked: "Dad, did you go to see Nan Yi last night?"
Gu Tingjun's face instantly darkened, and he had a headache when he mentioned this name.
"I saw her, but she refused to come back."
Mo Xiaoxuan was surprised: "Sister Nan really lives in the Yuyuan Villa area?"
"kindness!"
Gu Xiyan pretended to be surprised: "I heard that the place in Yuyuan is not suitable for ordinary people to live. At that time, you seemed to have wanted to buy a villa in Yuyuan, but Yuyuan refused. How could Nan Yi live there?
In the imperial garden?"
Mrs. Gu's eyes were cold: "It seems that the girl is really being kept by someone. It's really unfortunate for the family."
Mo Xiaoxuan and Gu Xiyan both looked at Gu Tingjun, both wanting to know if the rumors were true.
Gu Tingjun pondered for a moment, his face gloomy.
"I don't know either. I didn't even enter the gate of the Royal Garden last night. We only met after Nan came out. But at that time, a man did drive and pick her up."
Mrs. Gu asked: "Who is that man?"
"I didn't see clearly. The other person was sitting in the car at the time, but judging by his voice, he should be a young man."
Gu Xiyan frowned in thought, it seemed that Gu Nanyi really had a wealthy man outside.
"Is it Mr. Bai? Dad, if it is Mr. Bai, it would make sense if Nan lives in the Royal Garden."
As the most wealthy family in Pingcheng, it is not surprising that the Bai family has a villa in the imperial garden.
Gu Tingjun's face was cold and he said silently: "No matter who the other person is, how can a person of that status really like her? She is so out of touch now that she can't even listen to a word I say. Sooner or later she will regret it.
one day."
Gu Xiyan frowned slightly, pretending to be worried: "Dad, why don't you bring Nan Yi back? She is young now and has limited education, so she does such stupid things. We
As her relative, we must lead her to the right path in time."
Gu Tingjun looked at Gu Xiyan, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
"If that girl Nan Yi could understand things as well as you, she wouldn't do such a thing that ruins the family tradition. Forget it, let her go."
Now he has figured it out, it is enough to have Xiyan, a well-behaved and sensible daughter by his side. Even if she is not his biological daughter, she was raised by him. Xiyan has a simple and kind heart and has always regarded her as her biological father. This is enough.
As for Nan Yi, he really couldn't control her, and he didn't want to spend any more energy on her.
Gu Xiyan lowered her eyes slightly, a glimmer of light flashed under her eyes.
Sure enough, letting Gu Tingjun go to the Royal Garden had an effect.
Mrs. Gu's expression was cold and solemn, her eyes full of ridicule.
"I'm not surprised that she has reached this point. After all, her mother is not a good person. But that girl is the child of our Gu family after all. If her story is spread by someone with intentions in the future, our Gu family will also be embarrassed.
I think we still need to get her back."
"Mom, she won't come home." He could see that Nan Yi was filled with hatred.
She is cocooning herself like this now, probably because she wants to take revenge on him.
Old Mrs. Gu hummed: "Who said you want her to come back to this house?"
"What do you mean?" Gu Tingjun didn't understand what the old lady was thinking.
Old Mrs. Gu sneered: "With her academic performance, it's not easy to get into a good university. I think it's better to find her a husband's family earlier and marry her off. Then she will naturally go to her husband's family."
Train her."
The old lady has a stubborn and old-fashioned mind, and she always feels that her married daughter has thrown away the water.
As long as Gu Nan can get married, no matter what immoral things she does in the future, her husband's family will deal with it.
"Furthermore, I have another thought. The two children, Xi Yan and Mo Chen, truly love each other, but the progress of the two children was blocked because of a marriage contract made by the old man. That girl Nan Yi is Xi Yan's wife.
The biggest stumbling block to joining the Jiang family is that I want Nan Yi to get married first, so that the Jiang family will not be considered a broken promise, and Xi Yan and Mo Chen can be together smoothly."
Gu Xiyan looked at Mrs. Gu with a grateful face.
"Grandma, you are really worried about me."
Mrs. Gu's eyes were full of adoration: "As long as you can marry into the Jiang family, these things grandma does are nothing."
Xiyan's long-cherished wish to marry into the Jiang family has always been hers. After all, the Jiang family is an established aristocracy in Pingcheng. As long as the Gu family and the Jiang family can successfully marry, the Gu family's status will be raised to a higher level.
Gu Tingjun looked at Mrs. Gu: "Mom, have you already had this idea?"
Mrs. Gu put down her chopsticks and said in a proud tone: "I have thought carefully. Since that girl is like this, we can't control her, but we can't let her run around outside. Marrying her off is the best way. I have
An old sister, her son is a stock trader. I heard that he made more than 10 million from stock trading last year, and his family is very rich."
Gu Tingjun's eyes lit up: "The conditions are pretty good. How old are you?"
When mentioning the other party's age, Mrs. Gu hesitated a little.
"I'm thirty-nine, which is a bit old, but being older has the advantage of knowing how to love others. If Nan Yi gets married, she won't have to go out to work under such conditions, and she will have no worries about food and drink all her life. For her,
It’s definitely a good marriage.”
Gu Tingjun frowned and hesitated.
"Thirty-nine years old, which is a full 21 years older than Nan Yi. This age difference is quite big."
Although I have a kind of anger towards that girl, I feel somewhat unacceptable for my daughter who is in her prime of life to marry an old man.
Mrs. Gu snorted softly: "What's wrong with being twenty-one years older? What age is it? Nowadays, there are so many things about old couples and young wives. You have to understand that it is very difficult for her to marry a rich man based on her own conditions.
, she should seize such a good opportunity. And I have asked the old sister, her son is very filial and sensible, honest and responsible, and he is a person who can live a good life."
Gu Tingjun was hesitant.
Mrs. Gu is arbitrary and has already made her own decision.
"Let's arrange a meeting with them first. Maybe Nan Yi will fall in love with that girl."
Gu Tingjun was silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
