Chapter 555 Won’t Be A Good Outcome If It’s Forced
Gu Weiming chuckled. “I’m sorry. Ah Yao is such a straightforward child. Ah Zheng and Mengqing’s marriage has already been decided. When the two of them get married, they’ll naturally send invitations to everyone here! In-laws, quickly come up!”
Mr. Yao and Madam Yao walked up the stage with smiles on their faces. They picked up the microphone and said, “Our Mengqing grew up with Ah Zheng since they were young. The two of them are childhood sweethearts. Now, they’re finally getting married. Perhaps some people think that President Gu is already married. If Mengqing does this, it’ll be against the rules. However, Chairman Gu has already said that the Gu family doesn’t accept Miss Qiao. In that case, there’s nothing wrong with Mengqing getting engaged to President Gu.
“Mengqing marrying President Gu is good for President Gu as well. If you were President Gu, you wouldn’t be able to tolerate a wife like Qiao Xi who is uncultured, uneducated, unfilial, and who’s always causing trouble for her husband.”
Everyone could not help but nod.
Mr. Yao continued, “Not only is my daughter outstanding, but she also has President Gu in her heart. She always has President Gu’s best interests in mind. She’ll definitely do her job well.”
Yao Mengqing lowered her head shyly. “Dad, I’m not that outstanding either. It’s just that I definitely care more about Ah Zheng than Xi
Xi.”
Madam Yao said, “My daughter and President Gu have known each other for more than ten years. President Gu married that woman on an impulse. He should be regretting it now. It’s just that the woman is still pestering him. Now that he’s engaged to my daughter, this matter is resolved.”
The Yao and Gu families were all very sure that even if Qiao Xi was dissatisfied with this, she would not be able to go against the two families.
Although Gu Zheng doted on Qiao Xi a little, that was only momentary. When he recovered his senses, he would still choose Yao Mengqing to be his wife.
After a moment of silence, everyone congratulated them.
Yao Mengqing smiled shyly. “Thank you, everyone. My marriage to Ah Zheng—”.
“I didn’t know that I was engaged to Miss Yao. Why didn’t my father inform me?”
A cold male voice sounded, and everyone was stunned.
Gu Zheng was wearing a high-end suit and exuded a suppressive aura. He swept over like a cold wind and appeared in front of everyone.
His cold gaze swept across the crowd, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up. Everyone held their breaths, not daring to make a sound.
“Miss Yao, you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. I’ve told you a long time ago that my taste isn’t so bad that any Tom, Dick, or Harry can attract me.”
Yao Mengqing’s eyes instantly turned red, and her body shook slightly. The hall fell silent.
Gu Weiming’s gaze darkened. “Gu Zheng, I’m doing this for your own good. Qiao Xi is really not suitable for you. You’ll know how good Mengqing is once you marry her.” Gu Zheng sneered. “How do you know whether Yao Mengqing is good or not? Could it be that you’ve been with her? If you want to marry Yao Mengqing, I’ll be very happy. I’ll even be willing to give out generous gifts to congratulate you, Father!” “You!” Gu Weiming almost gasped. He did not expect Gu Zheng to say such disrespectful words in front of everyone.
“What nonsense are you talking about?! Mengqing has been in love with you for more than ten years. If you don’t marry her, do you still have a conscience?”
Gu Zheng sneered, “Father, why don’t you ask around? There are so many women in Li City who want to marry me. If I don’t marry them, does it mean that I don’t have a conscience? Just because her feelings for me have lasted ten years, her wish has to be fulfilled? Father, you’ve been dreaming of getting rich for 40 to 50 years, but you still haven’t become the richest man in the world!”
Everyone suppressed their laughter. However, Gu Yao could not help but laugh out loud.
That was right. That old man was constantly fantasizing about becoming the richest man in the world and having endless money to spend. In the end, he still failed. Gu Yao knew very well that his father did not like the Yao family and Yao Mengqing at all. He just knew that Gu Zheng was unwilling to be with Yao Mengqing, which was why he arranged this.
The Yao family’s faces darkened. Gu Weiming frowned as well and said angrily, “Ah Zheng, your marriage with Mengqing has been confirmed. Stop fooling around!”
Gu Zheng was silent for a moment. His voice was low and hoarse. “Yao Mengqing, do you want to marry me so badly?”
Yao Mengqing was a little embarrassed, but she still bit her lip and said, “Yes, Ah Zheng -11
“But I’m already married. Although my father may be someone with overflowing affections, I’m not that kind of person. I’m afraid only my father can do something like having two wives.”
