Chapter 260: Love Can’t Be Eaten
Why did my dad’s expression change after waking up from a sleep one night?
Upon hearing this, Madam Gu finally smiled. A faint laugh curled up the corners of her lips. "Jing Heng, I'm relieved that you think so. Our Gu family is a prestigious family. We are extremely strict in choosing wives and cannot be careless."
"Mom, what do you think?"
This time, Madam Gu chose to keep silent: "Sometimes, compatibility isn't the most important thing in marriage, but I made the wrong decision. Wenxiu, you should reflect on this now."
"Do you want Jing Heng to have a worry-free career for the rest of his life, or do you want him to meet someone he likes?"
"Mom, didn't Tingjin and I also develop feelings for each other after marriage?"
"First you have to be suitable, then you can like someone, but liking someone can't be eaten."
Looking at Mrs. Gu's stubborn look, Mrs. Gu sighed softly.
She felt guilty towards Wenxiu.
After being married for many years, Wenxiu really loved her son, but the old lady always knew that Gu's father did not like the marriage that his family had forced on him.
So after being married for many years, even the birth of their two children was due to Mrs. Gu putting something in Ting Jin's sleeping tea, which allowed them to have children naturally.
Although Gu Tingjin did not love Mrs. Gu, he gave her the most decent compensation.
Over the years, Mrs. Gu's status in the socialite circle has always been respected.
Who doesn’t want to curry favor with Mrs. Gu?
Mrs. Gu got the power, fame and fortune she wanted, and also trained Gu Jingheng to become an excellent heir to the Gu family. Although Mrs. Gu lamented Mrs. Gu's stubbornness, she had to admit that marrying such a daughter-in-law was a blessing for their Gu family.
Gu Qingtian rolled her eyes to hide the moisture in them before she let go of Gu Jingheng's sleeve.
Just then, Gu Jingheng's cell phone rang.
Gu Jingheng took it out and checked it. When he saw the message, his expression suddenly changed, and his whole body exuded an impossible-to-ignore coldness!
He stood up without thinking, and his sudden departure attracted everyone's attention.
Mrs. Gu looked at Gu Jingheng's back and spoke first: "Gu Jingheng, you haven't finished breakfast yet, where are you going?"
Gu Qingtian's heart also skipped a beat, and he felt his heart inexplicably stagnate, as if it was strangled by a pair of invisible big hands and he couldn't breathe.
Could something have happened to Aunt Zijin and Sui Sui Niannian?
He immediately stood up and chased after him: "Dad, wait for me."
As soon as Gu Jingheng walked out of the manor, he made a video call with Sun Tianlin.
In the video, Sun Tianlin's face showed no sign of hiding his anxiety: "Uncle Gu, the last time I contacted Sui Sui was an hour ago, but Sui Sui's signal suddenly failed, and now the radar can't detect Sui Sui's location at all."
"I was afraid something might happen to him, so I came to you."
Sun Tianlin frowned, and his voice changed because of worry.
Gu Jingheng's dark eyes became even darker, and a coldness grew in them: "I'll go check where they are now."
After hanging up the video, Gu Jingheng immediately ordered his assistant to investigate the surveillance footage of the manor.
Gu Qingtian was listening nearby, his expression changing instantly, becoming somewhat unsightly. "Dad, is something wrong with Aunt Zijin and Sui Sui Niannian?"
Gu Jingheng's whole body was tense, and his face was gloomy and cold.
He spoke breathlessly only when his assistant quickly arrived and handed the surveillance video to Gu Jingheng.
"Mr. Gu, the surveillance footage at the manor was destroyed last night. Several hours of footage has disappeared. We can't crack it quickly at the moment, but the surveillance footage of Miss Mu hailing a taxi at the foot of the mountain was captured."
