Chapter 1446 - You Have to be Responsible
Chapter 1446: You Have to be Responsible
“What are you talking about? If you want to have one then get one. It’s not like you can’t afford it.” Gu Zhiqian said it as a matter of course.
Guan Meiyi shook her head, “Animals have lives, especially companion pets like dogs. Taking care of them means taking responsibilities. While it brings you joy, you have to take care of it. You have to be patient and persistent. You might not be used to it in the beginning, but over time, you would find that it had become a part of your life. You will be anxious when it doesn’t eat and when it gets sick. When you can’t live without it, it starts to get old and is about to finish its life journey. They were too fragile, and their lives were too short. I don’t want to experience this kind of life-and-death separation, and I don’t have the confidence to raise them well.” Guan Meiyi turned her head to look at Gu Zhiqian, “So, since you raised them, you have to be responsible for them. Otherwise, you’re harming them.”
Gu Zhiqian had never seen such a sentimental side of Guan Meiyi, so he was unconsciously stunned by her.
At this moment, Guan meiyi changed the topic, “But, don’t call it Guan Meiyi anymore!”
...
The reception had already begun when Guan Meiyi and Gu Zhiqian arrived. The entrance of the venue was crowded with reporters. Gu Zhiqian held Guan Meiyi’s hand and walked slowly on the red carpet towards the interior of the venue.
This should be the first time they showed up in such a grand public occasion togethe since Gu Zhiqian and Guan Meiyi announced their relationship.
Old Master Gu stood in the venue, seeing Gu Zhiqian hold Guan Meiyi from far inside, his face suddenly pulled so long to the bottom.
Although it was him leveraging on the pressure of public opinion to force Gu Zhiqian and Guan Meiyi attend the party, in Old Master Gu’s heart, he still thought that if Gu Zhiqian didn’t bring Guan Meiyi today, it meant that this kid was still somewhat afraid of the Gu family.
Seeing Gu Zhiqian holding Guan Meiyi’s hand and walking in openly without any hesitation, Old Master Gu couldn’t hold the anger in his heart.
Gu Zhihuan stood beside Old Master Gu and chuckled, “Oh, Grandpa, look. I didn’t expect Gu Zhiqian to really bring Guan Meiyi here.”
Gu Zhihuan obviously didn’t mind the chaos and wanted to sow discord. Gu Zhiming and Gu Zhilin also laughed, “It seems that Fang Hua is here today as well. I wonder if she will be angry when she meets Guan Meiyi, which will tense the relationship between the Fang family and the Gu family.”
Hearing this, Old Master Gu immediately widened his eyes, “Why is Fang Hua here? Who invited her?”
Old Master Gu originally did not intend to let Fang Hua come today. His main goal was to humiliate Guan Meiyi at the banquet, so that she would know the hardships and back off. At the same time, he also wanted Gu Zhiqian and Guan Meiyi to distance themselves from each other in public.
It was not appropriate for Fang Hua to be here at such an occasion. If Fang Hua could not get over her anger and disrupted Old Master Gu’s original plan, it would not be worth it.
Hearing that Old Master Gu was angry, Gu Zhihuan looked at Zhao Huimin who was entertaining the female guests, with a face full of resentment, “Who else could it be? It’s Little Mom. She was afraid that her future daughter-in-law would run away, so she kept harping on her like a lapdog. Even I couldn’t stand it anymore. Grandfather, although you want to get marriage alliance with the Fang family, our Gu family is also a big name and much stronger than the Fang family. There’s no need to lower our Gu family’s status just for Fang Hua. But Little Mom, on the other hand, makes it seem like our Gu family is inferior to the Fang family that she has to beg them to marry their daughter to us.”
