Chapter 237: The Gu Family
Mengyu suddenly remembered the words Gu Dongxing had said:
"There’s never been such thing as a fake fiancé. Do you think it’s that easy to get into the heavily militarized Military District?
Do you think I would let just anyone pretend to be my fiancée?
I gave you the key and let you move into my house because from the start, I treated you as my real fiancée!
Now that you’ve become my fiancée, don’t even think about changing your mind!"
She should have realized he wouldn’t let her go, but she didn’t expect him to so brazenly claim her as his woman, especially when he was still engaged to another!
Mengyu clenched her fist fiercely towards Gu Dongxing’s departing back: "Bastard, daring to sneak attack me, wait till you come back next time, I’ll give you panda eyes!"
However, at this moment, her eyes were like spring water, seemingly proclaiming that she was in a good mood!
Yes, ever since she returned from celebrating Madam Gu’s birthday, she had been in a foul mood, it’s just that she had hidden it well, and no one had noticed.
But now, her mood had finally improved.
Suddenly, she felt a malicious gaze shooting from the classroom side.
With a slight twitch of her mouth, she recognized it—it was Jiang Huaiyu’s gaze.
She must have seen the scene where Gu Dongxing embraced her to "seal the deal."
But so what? Although she had told Gu Dongxing not to come to her unless he had settled the arranged marriage issue, after Gu Dongxing’s recent public appearance, who in the school didn’t know they were engaged?
Even if she had seen them embracing, what did it matter?
The issue of her being reported for her early romance with Wu Jiangsheng hadn’t even concluded yet; even seeing her with Gu Dongxing, what could she do?
Gu Dongxing had kissed her and then immediately left, fearing he might hear Mengyu’s dissent.
He didn’t care about any engagement; the woman he acknowledged was only Mengyu, and no one else was going to make him give up on Mengyu!
For his own happiness, he had to rush to City B immediately.
However, what he hadn’t expected was that as soon as he rushed back to the factory from school, his secretary told him, "Director Gu, your family called just now and asked you to call them back once you’re back."
While saying this, the little secretary glanced at him, thinking to herself, it was surprising that Director Gu’s family was actually in the Military District in City B, wasn’t it said that his mother lived in Xia Mountain Village?
Gu Dongxing found it strange; his father’s family generally didn’t bother with him, at most calling him during New Year’s to invite him home, which he always declined using the excuse of accompanying his mother.
They usually didn’t contact each other.
And today, they actually called?
He dialed his family’s number, and the person who answered was his stepmother, Yang Meiyin.
"Is there something?" he asked coldly.
He had no affection for this stepmother who had maneuvered to take his mother’s place, to the extent he didn’t even use a formal title for her.
"It’s Dongxing, yes, it’s like this—your father has something important to discuss with you, and wants you to come over in the next two days. What do you think—"
"Alright."
Gu Dongxing agreed, then hung up the phone, leaving Yang Meiyin, who was still holding the receiver and trying to find an excuse, frozen in place.
She slammed the phone down with a "snap," her expression a bit unforeseen.
"Mom, whose call was it?"
Gu Yue, a beautiful sixteen-year-old girl, walked in from outside just then. Seeing her mother frozen there, seemingly angry.
Still in high school, Gu Yue was her youngest child. Not only was she good-looking and a good student, but she was also sweet-talking, which made Gu Ming and his wife particularly fond of her.
"It was the bastard child of that whore," Yang Meiyin spat out with hatred.
