Chapter 475 This woman is more difficult to deal with than I imagined.
After thinking about it, Gu Zhiyao decided to tell He Yi about it.
Upon hearing this, He Yi immediately objected, "She must have ulterior motives for suddenly asking you to meet; you can't go."
“I know, that’s why I should go. She hasn’t made a move these past few days, and I want her to make a move soon.”
“You’re being too hasty. We agreed that the premise of alerting the enemy is to ensure our own safety. No, Gu Zhiyao, this matter cannot be left to you. I’m not at ease with you.”
Gu Zhiyao paused for a moment, a ripple passing through her heart, but quickly said resolutely, "I have to go. I can't wait like this any longer. After Grandma He's birthday, I'll be going back to Canada soon. I don't have time to wait."
"I already told you to leave this to me."
"He Yi, I'm telling you this so that you know where I am in case something happens to me."
“What if something unexpected happens? Since you said that, why did you…” He Yi was a little frustrated, but remembering her stubbornness that couldn’t be swayed by a few oxen, he knew she was definitely going today, so he had no choice but to compromise, “Okay, wait for me for an hour. I have a meeting to attend, and I’ll go with you then.”
"no need."
"Gu Zhiyao!"
"Don't worry, although she has ulterior motives, I don't think she would do anything to me so openly. She should also know that I will tell everyone. Besides, all she's done is to keep my dad around forever. My dad knows about me now, so she has to consider his side in many things. Anyway, don't worry, I will protect myself!"
"Then send me the address where you're meeting."
"can."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Zhiyao forwarded the address Zhao Guilan had sent to He Yi and left home.
The last time Gu Zhiyao saw Zhao Guilan was from a distance, but now that they were face to face, she saw this woman much more clearly.
It has to be said that this woman is very well-maintained, which is the result of a life of luxury and family happiness. Looking at Zhao Guilan, who is so elegant, radiant and beautiful, Gu Zhiyao couldn't help but think of her own mother, and her mood instantly plummeted, a deep look flashing in her eyes.
“Didn’t we agree to bring the children? I’ve already prepared gifts for them.” Suddenly, Zhao Guilan spoke up, a smile on her face.
Gu Zhiyao slowly raised her face, the hatred in her eyes had disappeared, and she said nonchalantly, "It was arranged long ago that they would go to accompany Great-Grandmother."
Zhao Guilan continued to look at her with a smile, "You look a lot like your mother when she was young, but of course, you are more beautiful than your mother."
"Aunt Zhao, do you know my mother?" Gu Zhiyao asked.
"Yes, your dad was my father's student. My father valued him highly and treated him almost like a son. So, our family was also very familiar with your mother."
Gu Zhiyao lowered her eyes slightly again and asked, "Aunt Zhao, my dad told me that you liked him a long time ago. Seeing him marry my mom, weren't you very distressed? What were you thinking at the time?"
Zhao Guilan paused, probably not expecting her to be so blunt, but she quickly regained her composure and said calmly, "It is somewhat painful, but there's nothing we can do about it."
"Is there really no other way? Is Aunt Zhao just going to give up like that?"
"Zhiyao, what do you want to say?" Zhao Guilan couldn't help but straighten her expression.
“Normally, in a situation like Aunt Zhao’s, you either suppress your feelings or let things continue. According to some of the things my dad told me, Aunt Zhao has never been able to let go of my dad, so she must want to be with him. Only by destroying my dad and mom’s marriage can you have this opportunity. I want to ask, could it be that you were the one who spread that rumor back then?”
"Zhiyao, what nonsense are you talking about! How could I do such a thing?" Zhao Guilan shouted urgently.
“Indeed, no one expected it, maybe even my mother didn’t expect it. I always thought my mother didn’t love my father that much, but after listening to my father’s story and reading my mother’s diary, I realized that my mother actually really wanted to live with my father. If someone hadn’t deliberately shown her something, she would never have suspected it. And this person is the key. Besides my mother, only this person knows.”
“Zhiyao, what you said may make sense, but I am not the person you described. Yes, I can't let go of your father, and I am in great pain, but I really never thought of breaking them up. I know your father loves your mother very much, so how could I do anything to hurt him? You are overthinking it. As for your mother, women are all fragile. Even a small rumor can make them overthink. Your mother has an extraordinary background, grew up in a wealthy family, and has a proud and aloof personality. She cannot tolerate the slightest flaw. It can only be said that this is an unfortunate situation between her and your father.”
Unlucky……
Is it unfortunate?
"But it's alright, your mother gave birth to you, and you reunited with your father, which is a comfort to your mother's spirit in heaven. If you don't mind, you can treat me as your mother from now on. By the way, your father and I also have a daughter, a few years younger than you. She's traveling recently, and we'll arrange for you two sisters to meet next time we can meet. You're very capable and smart, so you can help me educate and guide her when you have time. Sometimes, I just can't do anything with her!"
Throughout the entire process, Zhao Guilan maintained a smile, appearing very kind and friendly.
Perhaps I'm overthinking things, and Zhao Guilan didn't actually have any malicious intent?
No, since He Yi has already found out that the car accident was related to Zhao Guilan, it means that Zhao Guilan has a problem!
All of this was just Zhao Guilan's disguise!
Today's meeting has pretty much settled things. Zhao Guilan really didn't intend to do anything to her, but she also didn't get any information at all!
This woman is more difficult to deal with than I imagined!
This made Gu Zhiyao feel very heavy-hearted, uneasy, and even a little impatient.
Just then, her phone beeped with a text message.
“I’m coming over from the company now. Are you alright? I’ve already sent people to keep watch nearby. If you find anything, tell me immediately, okay? They’ll go in and rescue you.”
It's from He Yi.
Gu Zhiyao read it twice, her mind wandering for a moment.
A moment later, she replied, "Yeah, it's nothing."
Then he raised his head and continued looking at Zhao Guilan.
Zhao Guilan still had a smile on her face, and then talked to her about some things about her and her father. Seeing that there was no breakthrough, Gu Zhiyao lost interest and said goodbye.
“Zhiyao, thank you so much for coming to see me today. I know you might have some thoughts on your mind, but no matter what, the deceased is gone. What your mother would most want to see is you living well, happily. Your father built up a considerable business over the years, and all of this belongs to you and your sister. At my age, I only hope that your father and I can spend our later years in peace and watch you, the younger generation, live peacefully. You already have my phone number; just tell me if you need anything.” She paused, her eyes flickering, and then abruptly changed the subject, asking, “What's the specific situation between you and He Yi now?”
