Shi Mufan stopped and looked back at Gu Jinlan, "You just said that we are all devils. That's right. I also know that what we did is against human ethics. The reason why I was there was to atone for my sins by my lover's side."

Gu Jinlan gritted her teeth, "You know it's wrong but you still do it, it's even more hateful! You even abandoned your son for this, you are so cruel and heartless, but you stand in front of me and say you love Aye very much, don't you think it's ridiculous? People like you who are selfish and only care about money and interests are not worthy of being parents!"

There was no light in Shi Mufan's dim eyes, as deep and bottomless as an ancient well.

He exhaled slowly, "You hate us in your heart. No matter how I explain, you won't believe it, right?"

Gu Jinlan sneered, "You tell me, whether I believe it or not is up to me."

Shi Mufan nodded gently, and after a moment of silence, he spoke softly: "We are not doing this for money. You have been with Xiaoye for a while, and you should know the strength and financial resources of the Shi family. I don't need to do something that goes against my conscience just to make money."

"Although my lover was born in such a family, she has lived a life of luxury since she was a child and doesn't care about money or power."

"She used to be a simple girl who didn't care about worldly things. It was because of me that she fell into the abyss."

A hint of doubt flashed across Gu Jinlan's eyes, but she did not interrupt Shi Mufan.

Shi Mufan continued, "When we were in love, his family made a bet with her. If I didn't let her down and if the Shi family could accept her, her family would let her go free."

"Otherwise, she would have to follow the arrangements and serve the family. Working in the organization was not her original intention, and she had no choice."

"I have failed her, and I am willing to go to hell with her."

Having said this, Shi Mufan stopped.

Gu Jinlan didn't respond either.

It sounds like Shi Mufan's love for Yan Yi is quite touching.

But this did not diminish the hatred she felt for them.

"After saying so much, you still haven't answered my second question." Gu Jinlan stared at Shi Mufan with sharp eyes.

Her second question just now was, would Yan Yi agree to disband the organization?

Even though Shi Mufan seemed to be speaking frankly, she still remained skeptical in her heart.

If the couple really felt that what they did would be punished by God, they should have found a way to quit long ago, but they worked there for thirty years.

Even though they were resistant at first, they had gotten used to it after such a long time and had become numb and heartless.

Shi Mufan said: "My lover is really unwilling to let go, but I must stop her from going on, not just for your and Xiaoye's happiness."

"Please believe me, okay?" Shi Mufan pleaded, "Don't hurt Xiaoye because of us."

Gu Jinlan did not answer, but stared at Shi Mufan with cold eyes.

Shi Mufan waited patiently for her reply.

But she never spoke out.

Shi Mufan added: "I understand how you feel at the moment. The person you love suddenly becomes the son of your enemy. This is very cruel to you, and you can't make a decision right away. But I will definitely do what I promised you today. Please give me some time."

After saying that, Shi Mufan bowed to Gu Jinlan to apologize, turned around and left. His lonely back revealed a determination to go all the way.

If he came to confess all this to Gu Jinlan today, he might be killed in revenge by Gu Jinlan.

Xiaoye might also hate him as a father even more because of this.

And it is impossible for his wife to understand his behavior.

But he must do it.

If they don't do this, whether it's him and Yan Yi, or Xiaoye and Gu Jinlan, all of them will fall into an abyss from which there is no escape.

Only by doing this can their future turn around.

The Zhao family members who were waiting in the front yard heard footsteps coming from the house and turned around to look.

Seeing that the person who came out was Shi Mufan, Zhao Zihua wanted to ask something but hesitated. However, Shi Mufan strode out under their gaze.

The Zhao family members looked at each other, and when they came to their senses, Shi Mufan had disappeared at the door.

Zhao Jinche muttered, "What do the people from the Shi family mean? Brother Ye hasn't come yet. Could it be that Uncle Shi is here to cancel the engagement?"

"Don't make blind guesses." Yan Ziyin scolded in a low voice.

She didn't want to hear any unlucky words today.

Zhao Jinchen held the phone tightly in his hand, his expression solemn, "I called several times, but Aye never answered."

At this time, Zhao Jingchuan's cell phone rang.

Everyone held their breath and watched Zhao Jingchuan answer the phone nervously.

I don’t know who called or what was said, but Zhao Jingchuan’s expression became more and more gloomy and he didn’t say a word.

After Zhao Jingchuan hung up the phone, Zhao Zihua quickly asked, "What's going on? Who called?"

Zhao Jingchuan said: "The person sent to Shi's house said that the security guard at the door stopped him and would not let him in, and he did not report it."

"What is going on?" Yun Luoxi was also panicked.

She has always been optimistic about Lanlan and Ye Ge. Before Lanlan accepted Ye Ge's feelings, she always advised Lanlan to seize the opportunity and cherish it.

In her eyes, Brother Ye is a perfect good man. How could he fail at such a critical moment?

Zhao Jingchuan said: "I will go to the Shi family in person and ask Shi Ye to give an explanation!"

"No need to go." Gu Jinlan's voice came from behind.

Everyone turned around and saw Gu Jinlan standing at the door in a dreamy white wedding dress, like a princess walking out of a music box.

The only difference was that her eyes were firm and bright.

Zhao Jinche asked: "Lanlan, aren't you going to get married?"

Yan Ziyin quickly patted her youngest son on the shoulder and said, "I told you to stop talking nonsense!"

The situation has not been figured out yet, but Yan Ziyin still hopes that today's wedding can go smoothly.

It was not for the purpose of recognizing her as a relative at the wedding, but because in her opinion, Shi Ye was a qualified and good son-in-law.

Making assumptions only creates anxiety.

Zhao Zihua stepped forward, "Lanlan? What did he say to you?"

Gu Jinlan did not answer.

Zhao Jingchuan asked again: "What happened?"

Seeing Gu Jinlan's lips tightly pursed and her eyes full of secrecy, Yun Luoxi gently pulled Zhao Jingchuan's sleeve and reminded him in a low voice: "Jingchuan, don't ask anymore. Lanlan doesn't want to talk now."

Yun Luoxi and Gu Jinlan grew up together. Although Gu Jinlan's personality changed a lot after returning from abroad, his nature has not changed.

So she knew Gu Jinlan very well.

Hearing this, Zhao Zihua quickly said: "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. But Lanlan, no matter what you want to do, we support you and we will always be by your side!"

Everyone in the Zhao family nodded.

Gu Jinlan finally spoke: "Let's go to the wedding."
