As soon as Gu Hongze opened his mouth, Old Man Gu angrily raised the teacup in his hand and threw it at him, shouting: "You still have the nerve to talk, why do I disagree with Achen and Xiaosu, don't you know?"

"I'm sorry, Dad. It's all my fault. Please don't transfer your anger towards Achen. Achen has suffered a lot because of me. I can't let him suffer for me anymore." Gu Hongze lowered his head guiltily and apologized.

He did not dodge when the teacup was thrown at him.

He shook his body, and luckily the tea was no longer hot. However, the stains from the tea still stained his light-colored clothes, making him look a little funny, just like him.

Gu Mingchen snorted coldly, "Grandpa is angry with me, why are you butting in? You don't have to pretend to be a good person. I can handle my own problems."

"Achen, don't be like this."

Su Jinchu couldn't bear to watch it anymore and couldn't help but quietly pull Gu Mingchen's sleeve and persuade him in a low voice.

No matter what, Gu Hongze had good intentions. He shouldn't be trampled on by his father and then by his son.

Gu Mingchen didn't say anything, but shook his head at her, signaling her not to care.

Su Jinchu pursed her lips. Even though she couldn't bear to see it, she still listened to him and didn't say anything else.

The words that Mr. Gu had originally wanted to say were interrupted by Gu Mingchen, so he couldn't continue.

But he was unwilling to give up. He was silent for a while with a cold face, and continued to scold Gu Hongze: "Since you know that Achen is suffering for you, you should stop at the brink. It is good for him and for yourself. Tell me, as a father, what have you done for him? Can't you make some sacrifices for him?"

"If I agree, can father stop interfering in Achen's emotional affairs? Will he let them do whatever they want?" Gu Hongze asked in a low voice, his stump trembling slightly.

Mr. Gu said, "Yes, you set an example for me to believe that I can ignore them."

"Okay, I promise you." Gu Hongze agreed.

Mr. Gu showed a look of surprise, as if he didn't expect that he would compromise so easily?

Gu Mingchen frowned fiercely and said sternly with a sullen face: "I said, you don't have to care about my affairs. You didn't care about me before, and you don't need to make any decisions for me now."

Gu Hongze raised his head and looked at him, revealing a sad expression, and said, "I know you have grown up, and you are stronger, more decisive, and stronger than me. You don't need me to do anything for you. I didn't make this decision for you, I just figured it out. There is nothing in life that cannot be given up, and there is no one that cannot be let go. Cherish what you have when you have it, and let it go when you lose it. Having lived to this age, I can be considered...grown up!"

"Achen, Xiaosu, I will not interfere in your affairs anymore. You two can be together if you want, but Xiaosu, I still say the same thing. I hope you can treat Achen wholeheartedly. Because he treated you the same way. If the last incident happens again, as long as I am not dead, I will still oppose you two being together."

As expected, Mr. Gu gave in and spoke to Gu Mingchen and Su Jinchu with a stern face.

However, he warned Su Jinchu in a heavy tone, asking her to recognize her position.

Su Jinchu was a little confused. He didn't expect that Mr. Gu would forgive them so easily?

"Yes, Grandpa, I will remember it."

Of course, you have to agree quickly at this time, otherwise if you agree slowly, the old man will become suspicious and continue to oppose.

Su Jinchu didn't know what to say to appear more sincere.

Her mind was a little confused for a moment, and her mouth was not good, so she could only say the most ordinary words.

Originally, she thought that Mr. Gu would be dissatisfied with her ordinary promises, but he didn't react at all after hearing them. He just waved his hand and asked them to leave.

Gu Mingchen immediately took Su Jinchu's hand and walked out with a sullen face, without even saying hello.

"Achen, what are you angry about?"

After going out, Su Jinchu finally dared to ask.

Mr. Gu has already agreed to let them be together, why is he still angry?

"Do you know why he agreed and why he brought us here?" Gu Mingchen smiled bitterly, letting go of her hand and said.

Su Jinchu shook his head.

The atmosphere just now was indeed a bit strange, but she couldn't figure it out.

Gu Mingchen said in a low voice: "It was only after I came here that I understood the old man's intention. He was originally against us being together. But when he knew we were still dating secretly, he accepted it because he knew me and knew that I would not change what I was going to do. But he still acted like this in order to force him to make a decision."

"Is he you are talking about your father?" Su Jinchu heard something.

Gu Mingchen nodded and continued in a low voice: "Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run. The old man scolded him for being cowardly and incapable of taking on heavy responsibilities, but he still loved him in his heart. He hoped that he would be happy and smooth for the rest of his life and have someone to take care of him. So he wanted him to truly accept Lin Jingshan, let Lin Jingshan take care of him, and give him a home again. Instead of trapping himself to death and spending the rest of his life in misery because of... an unfortunate marriage in the past."

"But he disagrees?"

Su Jinchu suddenly remembered that Lin Jingshan had told her that she and Gu Hongze were not really together.

She loved Gu Hongze, but Gu Hongze refused to accept her, so they pretended to be husband and wife. In fact, it was in name only, because he still couldn't let go of Wen Junning.

Now she finally understood why Mr. Gu was not satisfied with her.

At the beginning, Gu Hongze also loved Wen Junning so deeply, and Old Man Gu believed that it was because he loved her too much that Gu Hongze had such a miserable life.

He was afraid that Gu Mingchen would become like his father and fall into misery because of loving a woman too much.

Agreeing now is not because he is satisfied with her. It is just because he knows that he can't control it, so he simply uses their affairs to point at Gu Hongze and force him to let it go.

Mr. Gu is indeed a loving parent with far-sighted plans for his son, but Gu Hongze... is he sincere in making such a decision?

If it's not sincere, how cruel can it be to him?

No wonder Gu Mingchen got angry because of the decision he made and repeatedly told him not to make decisions for him.

"Achen, you care about him in your heart, right?"

If you don't care, you won't care what decision he makes, you will only see whether the result is beneficial to you.

"What's the point of not caring?" Gu Mingchen smiled bitterly.

Su Jinchu held his hand and said, "Of course it is meaningful. You care about him, so his sincerity towards you is not in vain. Grandpa's love for him is as profound as that of a parent, and isn't his love for you also as profound as that of a parent?"

"Susu, you comforting me like this will make me feel guilty and feel like I owe him."

"No, you don't owe him, he owes you." Su Jinchu corrected.

Gu Mingchen said, "Let's put aside the question of who owes whom for now and think about how the old man knew that we were still dating and where we were at the airport."
