Chapter 684: Would You Be Willing to Go with Me?
His voice was almost a roar!
Mu Yiliang sighed softly, "Even if he doesn’t love your mother, it doesn’t mean he doesn’t love you..."
Gu Qingqian paused before speaking lightly, "All these years, although he’s been busy with work, he never stopped teaching me; I’ve always admired him, hoping one day he could be proud of me... I also thought he loved me, but now that mother and son have returned, I have become insignificant. Haha..."
He mocked himself with a curl of his lips, "Since I was a child, my circle had many wastrels. But those people weren’t inherently bad; most were neglected by their parents because of busy work. I always felt grateful to have a good father, but it turns out it was all a lie, all a lie!"
Mu Yiliang was lost for words.
In this world, many things are most feared when compared. Even though Gu Benhong doesn’t disregard Gu Qingqian, his son, in the face of the woman in his heart for so many years and the son she secretly bore, they suddenly became those he owes the most, causing Gu Benhong’s balance to tilt so dramatically.
But no matter what, Gu Qingqian is the most innocent one.
"So, are you planning... to leave home?"
He was silent for a long time, then suddenly looked at her, "If I wanted you to leave with me, would you be willing?"
What?
Mu Yiliang’s eyes widened!
Seeing her expression, Gu Qingqian knew it was nothing but his delusion. He laughed self-mockingly, "Forget it, pretend I didn’t say anything."
"Well, I have a son..." Mu Yiliang struggled to explain, "Well... actually things haven’t gone that far, your dad just lost his head for a while. Once he calms down, he’ll realize how unwise this is."
"He’s no longer the major shareholder of Fengye, just an ordinary board member now, what else is there to consider?" Gu Qingqian smiled sarcastically. "Yet, if he had known the woman he loved bore him a son, he wouldn’t have agreed so readily to FIS’s investment back then, would he?"
Mu Yiliang simply stopped talking, realizing that Young Master Gu just needed someone to listen to him. Over these days, he probably had indeed been terribly upset.
He couldn’t tell this to the hangers-on, nor to the women who sought him only for his wealth and status. Thinking back and forth, perhaps she was the only former subordinate who barely qualified as a friend, able to understand his feelings without mocking his situation?
With that thought, Mu Yiliang felt even more sympathy for him.
"Though from a long time ago I planned to start my own business someday, not caring about the shares he held, when I realized he couldn’t wait to give the best to that person, I suddenly felt so ridiculous." He really did laugh, "When I said I didn’t want those, he said he was relieved. But in the blink of an eye, he gave everything to another son, a son who didn’t even grow up by his side. Isn’t it ironic?"
Mu Yiliang also felt that Gu Benhong had lost a bit of sanity. No matter how hard it is to let go of a first love, treating his two sons so differently was too excessive, especially since Gu Qingqian is the son into whom he had poured the most effort.
But when men reach middle age, their thoughts really aren’t understandable to ordinary people.
Thinking for a moment, she walked to Gu Qingqian’s side and gently hugged him, "It’s okay, come on, sister will comfort you."
