Long Chase for the CEO’s Spouse - C87 RV elopement trip 8
The caravan sped on with the sound of rock and roll coming from the radio.
“We’re almost there …” Zhang Heng was about to ask the classic question, but he stopped himself.
“I’m not nervous.”
“Oh, mmm …” Zhang Heng glanced at Gu Zhen’s trembling hand on his thigh.
Actually, Gu Ke didn’t know why he was so nervous. He hadn’t been this nervous before when he went to see his father. Perhaps it was because he was still a mother, so his blood ties with her were a bit thicker. And perhaps the biggest reason was that it was harder for a mother to compromise than it was for her father to let her son marry another man.
“Are you worried about us?” Zhang Heng asked. Gu Ke nodded.
There was nothing strange about this. No matter who it was, they should be concerned about the future of the two of them. However, he was never worried about these things because he didn’t care about the opinions of others, because he was just like that.
However, there was still the warmth and gentleness of his mother in his heart. He missed it.
In the past, his father had abandoned his mother, and the fault lay with his father, not his mother. There was no reason for him to resent his mother. His mother was leaving, so he shouldn’t ask her to stay.
He couldn’t stop his mother from pursuing happiness outside of his father, because his father had abandoned his mother.
Thus, in these past few years, he still missed his mother a lot, so he was very reliant on Gu Li. His elder sister was his mother. Therefore, that time, the trash of a superior deceived Gu Li’s feelings. He would rather take the risk to beat up that trash of a man in order to vent his anger for his sister.
“Don’t worry, I’m here.” Zhang Heng raised his warm smile to comfort Gu Ke.
Gu Zhen replied with a faint smile, “Yes, I know.”
I know, I’m not afraid of you around me. Seven years ago, it was; seven years later, it was still the same.
“I know …”
The car finally stopped in front of a luxurious three-story villa. The size of the garden was also shocking. It looks like Gu Ke’s mother really married into a rich family after getting divorced!
Zhang Heng and Gu Zhen got out of the car and picked up some letters of the meeting. Gu Zhen looked at the letter in his hand, wrapped in a red gift box, and felt a little worried. His mother had already married into such a wealthy family that could match the strength of the Zhang family. How could she look down on these gifts that they had bought in the supermarket on the roadside? Moreover, the packaging was in bright red. Would his mother despise old dirt?
At the same time Zhang Heng pressed the doorbell, he tightened his grip on Gu Ke’s hand. “I’m here.”
“Mm …”
After about a few minutes, someone came out from the inside and opened the wire door a little bit. He stuck his head out and asked, “May I ask who you are looking for?” Looking at the man’s disguise, Zhang Heng guessed that he was the housekeeper or something.
Zhang Heng answered in place of Gu, “We are looking for this family’s wife, Li Xiaoyue.”
The housekeeper heard that the person was looking for his wife, so he sized them up. Originally, the butler didn’t want to let them in. Although the two of them looked quite handsome, the gift bag in their hands was a little … A bit… “Hmm …” That is …
Anyway…
It’s just the smell of the countryside…
One word was — “Earth”.
“If you want to say dirt, then say so …” “Even though I feel that it’s really very dusty …” Zhang Heng felt this way in his heart, but he still politely bowed to the butler. In a foreign land, especially in a city where the Zhang Clan’s influence had yet to reach to the center, he could not afford to lose face.
Later on, it was the butler who took a peek at the caravan parked behind Zhang Heng and Gu Qishao. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a high-end luxury brand. Immediately, he became suspicious of the identities of Zhang Heng and Gu Qishao.
But what if? Thus, he didn’t dare to be negligent and decided to welcome the Madam over to take a look.
Thus, the butler brought Zhang Heng and Gu Ke to the villa’s living room. A woman in a silk nightgown was sitting on the sofa. She leisurely picked up a cup of tea and took a sip before putting it down. Then he would tease the little white dog lying beside him …
This is Madam … Was it Gu Ke’s mother?
Zhang Heng exclaimed in admiration. He did not expect that his mother, Gu Ke, who came from a poor family, would be able to gain such a stable and noble lady from the next few years, as if she had grown up in a rich family.
“Madam, there are two people out there who would like to see you.”
Madam touched the little white dog’s fur, then she raised her hand and waved. “Bring them here.”
“Yes.” The butler made a gesture of invitation, and Zhang Heng and Gu Ke followed him to the sofa opposite the housekeeper and sat down.
Madam Ling currently had her eyes closed. She didn’t raise her head at first glance, so she didn’t know that the person sitting opposite her was her eight-year-old son — Gu Ke.
Li Xiaoyue asked, “Are you looking for me or my husband?”
Ever since Li Xiaoyue had married into the Wealthy Class, there had been many people who had wanted to reach out to her, be it in terms of business or family matters. In the beginning, Li Xiaoyue would warmly welcome them, but gradually, she found out that these people were looking for her because they coveted her husband’s wealth and influence.
Born into a poor family, Li Xiaoyue hid her innocence and hospitality and became tactful. After ten years, she had also started to become like the noble ladies by her side, knowing how to deal with these problems and slowly growing into the good wife of her current husband.
She and her current husband had given birth to a daughter, and together with the son of his current husband and ex-wife, they had raised two children in total.
Zhang Heng had investigated all of these matters. But Zhang Heng looked around and did not see his daughter or son. Today was obviously the weekend, so he should not go to school, right? It seemed that Li Xiaoyue’s daughter was in middle school now, and her husband’s and her ex-wife’s son had graduated a long time ago to work. They were not far from Gu Ke’s age.
She didn’t know how to reply to her wife. Fortunately, Gu Zhen had spoken first, otherwise Li Xiaoyue would have suspected that the two people in front of her were afraid to speak because they were afraid to speak and felt guilty.
“For you.”
“…” “Why?” Li Xiaoyue opened her eyes. She was curious about who had the cheek to climb over them.
When she opened her eyes, she discovered that the boy in front of her was slightly shorter and weaker … So familiar…
But, could it be …?
An impossible thought suddenly flashed through her mind … However … He was truly very familiar with this place … The tone of his voice, and even his appearance.
Although she hadn’t seen her own son for more than ten years, as a mother, how could she forget his face?
“Why …” And … “You are …” At first, her aura was still strong, but Li Xiaoyue, who was sitting upright like a mountain, was curious. She wanted to know if the person sitting across from her was him …
Although she had thought countless times in her dreams that Gu Yin would come to find her, she had waited for more than ten years and Gu Qishao had not come. Alright, since we can’t meet again, let’s just forget about it. Therefore, Li Xiao Yue gradually stopped anticipating the reunion between Gu Ke and herself …
Something that he thought was impossible had happened all of a sudden. Really, there was a person who looked very much like Gu Ke standing in front of her, saying that he had come for her.
Li Xiaoyue looked at Gu Ke, not knowing what to say … Gu Ke coldly replied, “… You don’t need a reason for your son to come to you, right? ”
Yes, there was no need for a reason.
But don’t you hate me?
“Don’t you hate me?” Li Xiaoyue asked with a tremble, and it could be seen that her whole body was trembling.
The steward had tactfully retreated to the side when Li Xiaoyue began her questioning, leaving behind some time for Gu Ke to chat with his wife and Zhang Heng.
“…” It’s only natural for you to leave your father, isn’t it? ”
Li Xiaoyue had nothing to say. Indeed. Back then, if it hadn’t been for that incident, that man, Gu Ke’s father, hadn’t said ‘Let’s get divorced’ heartlessly. Until now, perhaps she would still be in that small house, the Gu family’s wife, Gu Li and Gu Ke’s mother … Everything was different.
But he said it …
He didn’t want her … He wants to divorce me …
She was a woman, and she needed someone to rely on. Therefore, he had no choice but to marry into a rich and powerful family.
“Do you understand me?”
Gu Ke nodded.
Li Xiaoyue smiled in a gratified manner. Putting the little white dog aside, she stood up and walked over to Zhang Heng and Gu Qishao. To show courtesy, Gu Zhen also stood up. Before Li Xiaoyue could finish her sentence, Gu Yin had already hugged Li Xiaoyue, his mother.
“…” Although Li Xiaoyue was puzzled, she still smiled with relief and said gently, “What’s wrong?”
“…” No, “Gu Zhen buried his head in Li Xiao Yue’s shoulder, like a small child needing the warmth of her mother’s embrace,” I’ve always… “Everyone misses you …”
“Me too …”
Li Xiao Yue had left Zhang Heng and Gu Zhen to stay for a day or two. Since her husband happened to be away on a business trip, it would be a few days before he could return home. Her daughter was also staying at school, and her son worked outside all day, so she had no time to go home.
Li Xiaoyue happily carried out the dishes, “It’s so good that you all are willing to stay!”
Every time he put down a dish, Zhang Heng would quickly pick up the biggest meat ball in the dish.
“…” Seeing Zhang Heng’s gluttonous look, Li Xiaoyue laughed so hard she was on the verge of tears. “Eat slower, eat slower …”
Li Xiaoyue seemed to recall that when Gu Yu was eight years old, he would often bring his friends home to eat. At this moment, it was just like what happened back then. It was so warm and warm.
Zhang Heng looked as if he had suddenly thought of something. He bit a prawn and raised his head to report to Li Xiaoyue. “Auntie, I want to marry Gu Zhen.”
If Zhang Hengsheng, or to be accurate, was a girl, the boy would inadvertently say the children’s words that he had secretly decided to spend his life with, which would be cute and interesting to the parents.
But Zhang Heng and Gu must be boys. No matter what, they wouldn’t become girls.
