Lu Xining looked at Gu's mother, but she looked as usual.
"Are you tired from rushing here? Sit down and talk to me for a while." Gu's mother took her arm and walked to the sofa.
Lu Xining naturally had difficulty persisting.
After the two sat down, the nanny poured tea for Lu Xining and Jiang Cheng respectively.
Seeing that Lu Xining didn't drink, Mother Gu pushed the preserved fruits on the table again and said, "Try it. If you like it, I'll bring you more later."
"Thank you, Mother Gu." Lu Xining responded and took a piece.
"Young mistress." Jiang Cheng reminded nervously.
Lu Xining smiled reassuringly at him and said, "Mother Gu will not harm me."
Now that she's here, she has a certain degree of confidence.
Because Gu Yuzhi is not dead yet, if something happens to him, Jin Shaoheng will not let him go, let alone Gu's father in prison.
These are the people that Mother Gu cares about, so she will not act rashly.
Of course, Lu Xining is more willing to believe in Mama Gu's kindness towards her than these.
Mother Gu's eyes were filled with trust and she asked: "Is it delicious?"
"Yeah." Lu Xining nodded.
"I'll decorate it for you later." Mother Gu patted her hand, and then told the nanny: "Auntie, get ready to cook."
"No, Mom Gu, I have other things to do tonight, so I won't eat here. Let's just have a chat, okay?" Lu Xining said.
Mother Gu looked a little disappointed when she heard that she wasn't eating at home.
But seeing that Jiang Cheng couldn't sit still and was wandering around the living room, he was an outsider after all, so he didn't try to stop him and said, "Okay."
"By the way, Mother Gu, is there no news about Brother Yu yet?" Lu Xining asked.
"Yes." When Gu Yuzhi was mentioned, Gu's mother looked sad again.
After losing his memory, Lu Xining still doesn't hate Gu Yuzhi in his heart.
But she knew that since she was with Jin Shaoheng, she and Gu Yuzhi would never be able to go back to the past, so she couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"How are you doing lately? Are you feeling well?" Mother Gu changed the subject and became concerned about Lu Xining's current situation.
"Very good." Lu Xining replied.
"You look good, you seem to have gained some weight, right?"
"Yeah?"
They chatted in bits and pieces for about half an hour, during which time Mother Gu always gave Jiang Cheng some of her attention.
Although he didn't say anything, there was still a hint of defensiveness in his eyes.
Lu Xining left quickly and Gu's mother sent her into the elevator.
After turning back home, he went directly into Gu Yuzhi's room.
A tall and straight man's figure stood by the window and looked down.
When Mother Gu came over, she saw Lu Xining getting into the car.
"As you can see, she is doing well." Gu's mother said.
Gu Yuzhi said nothing.
Mother Gu looked sideways, looked at her son with distress, and said: "Let it go, even if it were to be done over again according to your expectations, Xining still chose Jin Shaoheng."
"That's because I wasn't given a fair chance at all." Gu Yuzhi said solemnly.
The voice sounded calm, but still had a hint of reluctance.
Before he could properly pursue Lu Xining, or even formally express his intentions, his rhythm was completely disrupted. How could he be willing to do so?
"When I meet him, you have no chance." Mother Gu hoped that he would wake up a little.
He had been paranoid for too long because of Lu Xining. But because of her guilt, she couldn't blame him too much.
If she and Dad Gu hadn't been so ambitious in their career, which caused him indelible harm when he was a child, Lu Xining wouldn't have been his salvation.
Although later, after Gu's mother got on the right track in the company, she gradually retired from the company and turned her energy to her son.
But Gu Yuzhi was already old at that time, and she had already missed the opportunity to enter his heart.
"Who said that?" Gu Yuzhi was dissatisfied.
It seemed as if the mother who was trying to persuade him in front of him was the evil person who prevented him from being with Lu Xining.
Mother Gu has long been accustomed to him being like this, and she is not angry. She just calmly said: "Son, if you truly love someone, you want them to be happy."
"How do you know I can't give her happiness?" Gu Yuzhi asked.
"Because her happiness is having a child in her belly and being with the person she loves." Gu's mother answered.
"She will fall in love with me." Gu Yuzhi murmured to himself.
I just don't know if he said this to his mother or to himself.
"When I met him, she already had someone to love." Why was he still deceiving himself?
"If it weren't for Jin Shaoheng, she would definitely love me." Gu Yuzhi has always thought like this for so many years.
Because he had a belief since the beginning of his love affair that Lu Xining was his.
But Gu’s mother knew that this was wrong.
"When it comes to loving someone, it's never a matter of choice, let alone settling for the next best thing." Mother Gu said.
Gu Yuzhi looked at her, and Gu's mother said again: "You always want to take Xining away, and you always want to trap her in your own world.
It's because you know that love comes from the heart. You can't guarantee that without Jin Shaoheng, she wouldn't fall in love with someone else."
"Yes, I can guarantee it." Gu Yuzhi was still stubborn, with crazy eyes.
Mother Gu felt powerless, but for the sake of her son, she had to convince him:
"When I met you, you kept saying you loved Xining, but have you ever faced up to the harm you've done to her?
Do you know how painful it is for a mother to lose a child?
Even if you can accept the child in her belly, have you ever thought about it? This child belongs to Jin Shaoheng.
A woman's greatest happiness is to be with the person she loves and raise their children together.
The child is not yours, and the person she loves is not you either.
If you destroy these things, no matter how good you think they are, it will hurt her, and she will never be happy in her life."
Mother Gu was so sincere and sincere, she just hoped that he would wake up in time.
As Gu Yuzhi listened to his mother's words, his face gradually showed confusion.
Mother Gu touched his head like she did when she was a child, and then said: "Mom knows you love Xining, but calm down and think about it.
Your love had already unknowingly changed its original intention and become a source of harm to her.
Otherwise, why did she become more and more distant from you when she originally trusted you so much?"
She knew that her son could listen to her quietly now, not because her words were reasonable, but because he had lost the capital to compete with Jin Shaoheng.
If Sawyer was still here, if his backhand had not been cut off, he would still continue to do bad things in order to force himself to be with Lu Xining.
So when Sawyer's accident happened, she never hated anyone. She just hoped that her son would be safe and not make any mistakes again.
Gu Yuzhi remained silent, as if he was digesting what Gu's mother told him.
Mother Gu also gave him space.
I called Lu Xining over today. I wanted to secretly let my son take a look at Lu Xining, or even listen to her talk, so as to relieve his lovesickness.
Or, Lu Xining could help him persuade him to avoid making the same mistake again.
It was unexpected that things would turn out like this, but Mama Gu thought it might not be a bad thing...
