Chapter 563: Chapter 390: Happiness Comes Unexpectedly (Grand Finale)_1
In her room, Tang Wan tosses and turns, unable to find sleep. Every time she closed her eyes, her tumultuous past with Gu Yuan played out before her like scenes from a film, scrolling one after another in her mind.
This man, who once dazzled her entire youth, had also caused her donkey’s years of suffering.
She really must’ve owed him in a past life to have suffered so much in this life. Sigh.
Tang Wan sighed in resignation. Unexpectedly, her cellphone on the bedside table rang. A call was coming in. She picked up the phone, and it was the same number she knew all too well. The caller was, of course, Gu Yuan.
Seems like the young Mo Shiting has disregarded her warnings and told Gu Yuan the unfortunate truth, huh?
Otherwise, how could it have been a coincidence that after all these years, he managed to find her?
Huh!
Tang Wan coldly rejected the call and promptly blocked the number.
On the other side, Gu Yuan listened to the busy tone, realizing that he had been blocked. A frown unconsciously appeared on his face.
Her temper is just as bad as ever.
Forget it, he decided to take a trip to M Country in person.
…
The following day after breakfast, Tang Wan saw the steward approach her. He reported that a Mr. Gu wanted to see her.
“Not seeing him!”
Tang Wan coldly replied, sitting on the sofa in the living room, sipping her tea elegantly.
Right at that time, Gu Li descended from the stairs, yawning. Hearing the steward’s report, her eyes lit up. She hurriedly intervened, “Grandpa steward, my mom wants to see him. Please let him in.”
If his last name was Gu and, judging by her mom’s visible displeasure, could he be her dad?
Could it be that her dad finally wanted to settle things and personally came to see mom? As his daughter, she definitely needed to support him.
“This…”
The steward stood hesitantly, glancing between Tang Wan and Gu Li, unsure of who to listen to.
Gu Li, noticing this, walked over cheerfully and sat next to Tang Wan, leaning on her arm affectionately. She winked at the steward, “Go ahead, grandpa steward, my mom won’t object.”
“Alright, then.”
The steward resigned and excused himself.
Tang Wan shot Gu Li a glare, “Who gave you permission to let him in? I want you to know, I’m incapable of burying the hatchet with your father.”
“Mommy, I understand our family’s past, and I sympathize with your feelings. Still, I think you should give my father a chance to communicate and hear his story,” Gu Li gently advised, patting Tang Wan’s shoulder.
She had woken up in the middle of the night and couldn’t sleep. So, she used Mo Shiting’s cellphone and accidentally discovered his texts with her parents. Being as smart as she was, she quickly understood everything.
She had to admit, her father brilliantly played it dumb.
Nevertheless, as his daughter, she still hoped her parents could reconcile. She wanted those who love each other to stay together for life.
Tang Wan spent the whole night fuming, but also deliberating. Once she understood everything, her anger gave way to resignation.
Now, hearing her daughter’s persuasion, she lightly pressed her lips together, remaining silent.
Shortly after, the steward escorted Gu Yuan into the mother and daughter’s vision.
Seeing her father’s handsome face showing traces of travel fatigue, Gu Li whispered to Tang Wan, “Mommy, my father is still very handsome. Power and good looks, he has them both. There hasn’t been a single woman by his side all these years. Clearly, it’s because he has been saving himself for you. Are you sure you don’t want to have him back?”
Tang Wan withdrew her gaze from Gu Yuan, softly warning Gu Li, “Quiet.”
“Hehe.”
Gu Li chuckled, stood up and walked swiftly towards Gu Yuan, “Father, you’re here.”
“Yes.”
Gu Yuan, with mixed feelings, looked at Gu Li, his heart full of emotions.
So, she was his biological daughter, but he had been kept in the dark for so many years.
Luckily, he had always treated her as his own, without any discrimination. If not, he couldn’t forgive himself, let alone see Tang Wan.
Thinking about this, his eyes involuntarily wandered over to Tang Wan, seated not far away on the sofa.
Despite the years, her beauty remained untouched, just as he remembered it.
“Ah Wang…”
Gu Yuan called her intimately.
Tang Wan pursed her lips, “Mr. Gu, I believe we’re not that close. ‘Ms. Tang’ or ‘Chairman Tang’ should suffice.”
“Alright then, Ms. Tang.”
Seeing her unwillingness to indulge him in these matters, Gu Yuan swiftly changed his address.
After speaking with Tang Wan, he turned towards Gu Li, “Tang Tang, I’ve something to discuss with your mom. Perhaps, you could take a walk in the garden?”
