Chapter 564: Chapter 390: Happiness Comes Unexpectedly (Grand Finale)_2

“Alright, I’ll go now.”

Gu Li knew that with her as the third wheel, the two of them may not be able to truly open up. So, she left hastily.

Once she left, the servants also withdrew. The vast living room was left with only Gu Yuan and Tang Wan.

Gu Yuan stood in place without moving, slowly said, “I really didn’t expect Tang Tang to be my daughter. All these years I’ve been misjudging you. I’m sorry!”

“Sorry? A simple sorry would redeem all that you’ve done?”

Recalling his deliberate actions that separated her and their daughter for so many years, Tang Wan’s hard-calm emotions flared up again, “Get out! I don’t ever want to see you again!”

Gu Yuan clearly saw the hatred in her eyes, he lowered his voice, “Ah Wan, what should I do for you to forgive me?”

Tang Wan gritted her teeth and made a difficult request, “To forgive you, you can resign and give up your soaring political career.”

This man was a born politician. Now only a step away from the presidency, if everything goes well in the next elections, he will become the president of the country. She simply didn’t believe he would put aside a lifetime’s worth of scheming just to earn her forgiveness.

As expected, Tang Wan’s words made Gu Yuan’s handsome face darken, becoming somewhat unreadable.

Seeing him stood there quietly with a serious face, Tang Wan chuckled, “Well, I guess you’ve made your choice. Please leave, future President Gu.”

Gu Yuan: “…”

Half an hour later, when Gu Li returned after strolling in the garden, she found that only Tang Wan was in the room, and Gu Yuan was nowhere to be found.

Well, it seems they haven’t made up.

It makes sense. Given all the wrongs her mother suffered, her anger wouldn’t just dissipate so easily.

She hoped her father could work harder to win her mother’s forgiveness.

Tang Wan knew her daughter well and could tell what she was thinking, she shrugged and smiled wistfully, “Tang Tang, you’re still too naive.”

Gu Li: “…”

——

It wasn’t until ten o’clock at night that Mo Shiting returned from work.

Gu Li pulled him into the room and quietly told him about everything that had happened at home today, including Tang Wan’s demand for Gu Yuan to resign.

Mo Shiting frowned. He never expected that Tang Wan would be so adamant, giving Gu Yuan such a difficult choice.

Choose between his wife and his career. What would his powerful father-in-law choose?

“Brother Ting, what would you pick if you were him?”

Gu Li couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Mo Shiting’s honest answer was, “I would never distrust you, nor would you ever put me in such a situation, so there is no answer for that question.”

“Tch!”

Gu Li wasn’t quite satisfied. “You could simply say that you couldn’t give up your career.”

After saying that, she snorted and stormed out.

Mo Shiting wrapped his arm around her waist, gave her a peck on the cheek and asked, “Angry? If I didn’t have a career, how would we make ends meet, huh?”

Gu Li pouted, poked his chest, and said confidently: “Then let me support you.”

Mo Shiting’s eyes were full of soft laughter: “Sure! Then I will depend on you for support.”

As he said this, he suddenly moved closer to her ear, his breath carrying an alluring warmth. “Honey, I’m hungry, can you feed me? Hmm?”

Gu Li understood, and her pretty face instantly turned red. “Shameless!”

…

Ever since Gu Yuan was driven away by Tang Wan that day, everyone, including Gu Li, didn’t believe that he would give up his overwhelming power for Tang Wan. However, a month later, news of his resignation was widely circulated and became known to all.

By then, Gu Li and Mo Shiting had already returned to Hua Country.

Upon learning about this, Gu Li immediately called Gu Yuan. The person on the other end of the line was Gu Zuo.

“Young miss, the family head is currently busy and unable to take your call.”

“Did my father truly resign?”

Gu Li still found it hard to believe.

Gu Zuo confirmed, “Yes! The family head said this was the most correct decision he had made.”

“Is he… okay?”

Gu Li asked with concern.

Gu Zuo glanced at the handsome man in the distance, kneeling in front of Tang Wan with a ring, he paused for about ten seconds before he answered seriously, “I think… he should be just fine.”

Gu Li: “Huh???”

She didn’t understand why she had to wait that long for Gu Zuo to answer her question until—

“Young miss, the family head successfully proposed to Chairman Tang, congratulations!”

“Ah!!! Really?”

Gu Li could hardly believe what she was hearing, she couldn’t help but scream out loud.

Mo Shiting rushed in at the sound, and in the next second, saw Gu Li hugging him, ecstatic. “Great, Brother Ting, my dad and mom finally made up! I’m finally a child from a complete family.”

Mo Shiting was initially worried that something had happened and was relieved.

He affectionately rubbed her head, held and laid her on the bed, then leaned over. “Now that you’re happy, should we celebrate, hm?”

“Celebrate?”

Considering the man’s suggestive look, Gu Li quickly caught on.

Aima, this man is learning to be naughtier and naughtier, never letting go of an opportunity to gain from her.

But she went along willingly, after all, he’s the one she loved most in this life.

——

Two years later.

Gu Li graduated from Imperial City University, and her friends and family came to attend her graduation ceremony.

After taking the group photo, Lu Cong teased Mo Shiting, “My sister-in-law has graduated, hurry up and have a baby, don’t fall too far behind me.”

Over these two years, Lu Cong and Murong Qian had led sweet and happy lives. They had even had their second child. Every day he showed off his children in front of Mo Shiting, nearly driving him crazy.

“Get lost!”

Mo Shiting, with a cold expression, didn’t even want to talk to him.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw his father-in-law carefully helping Tang Wan and softly saying, “Slow down, don’t affect the baby.”

Mo Shiting: “???”

Even his father-in-law and mother-in-law had their second child this year, what about him?

Forget about it. His wife is still young, just 23 years old. They can wait for a few more years. No need to rush.

“What are you thinking about, Brother Ting?”

The sweet voice of a woman interrupted Mo Shiting’s thoughts.

Mo Shiting came back to his senses, pulled her into his arms and said to her, “Just thinking about when we will upgrade our life.”

Gu Li: “???”

It took several seconds before she realized what he meant and tiptoed to his ear and giggled a line out.

Happiness came unexpectedly which made Mo Shiting’s heart hammered excitedly.

He was going to be a dad…
