100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 540: Why So Enthusiastic

A wave of overwhelming exhaustion surged over him, and Gu Hangshen could only offer a bitter smile. He could summon storms in the business world and achieve great things, yet he was unable to manage domestic affairs properly.

At this moment, Gu Hangshen noticed a commotion at the door—someone had arrived.

As the crowd dispersed, two people walked in, and Gu Hangshen’s eyes immediately brimmed with surprise—it was his parents, and following them was Xiao Rou...

Xiaoqiao stood aside, taking every word of her grandfather to heart.

She had always thought it was just the old man being too stubborn.

Little did she expect that her grandfather had considered so much for her.

Fearing she would be deceived, bullied, and looked down upon by her in-laws.

He was determined to fight for the respect she deserved, no matter what.

The phrase "As long as I’m alive for even one day, Xiaoqiao will have her natal family" almost brought Xiaoqiao to tears on the spot.

No wonder he had been so resolute this time. Grandfather Gong always felt he was getting old and might not be able to protect her for many years, so he was eager to set everything up for her, ensuring she could live happily without suffering any grievances.

Xiaoqiao also noticed the three people approaching the door and instinctively looked at Gu Hangshen, seeing that he was equally astonished, apparently also unaware in advance.

Before they could react, Gu’s father had already warmly stepped forward, "In-laws, I’m really sorry for being late! I’ll take three drinks as a penalty!"

As the saying goes, one does not slap a smiling face, and Grandfather Gong naturally couldn’t keep a stern face upon seeing this. He made some small talk, but it was evident that his expression was much more pleasant than before.

Gu’s mother also came over, "There were many things we did wrong before, and today, we came to celebrate the old master’s birthday and, secondly, to apologize! We hope the old master won’t hold it against us, the younger generation!"

Xiaoqiao blinked in confusion, watching the elders cheerfully chatting over the dining table, and she felt bewildered. What was going on?

It was one thing for Gu’s mother to be like this, but why was Gu’s father so enthusiastic as well?

-

In the midst of noise and bewilderment, Xiaoqiao spent the whole day.

After all the guests had left, Gu’s father and Gu’s mother called her over separately.

At her side were Gu Xiaorou and Gu Hangshen.

Gu’s father seemed hesitant as if he found it difficult to speak.

In the end, it was Gu’s mother who took the initiative to take Xiaoqiao’s hand, "Xiao Rou has told us everything about your situation!"

Xiaoqiao looked at Gu Xiaorou, not understanding what Gu’s mother was referring to.

Gu Hangshen wore a thoughtful expression, as if he had figured something out.

"Regarding Hannian’s matter, until yesterday, I still felt that our Gu Family had wronged her! Even after Xiao Hang married you and she, out of spite, stole the company secrets, I didn’t blame her too much. After all, it was our Gu Family’s fault first, so I was also not nice to you back then..." As she said this, Gu’s mother seemed embarrassed and then continued, "Until Xiao Rou told us the truth, I realized how outrageously wrong I was!"

Xiaoqiao didn’t speak and listened quietly as Gu’s mother continued.

Gu’s mother sighed, "It’s all our fault for spoiling Xiao Rou too much. She’s too naive, unable to discern who truly cared for her and who meant her harm, which led to being deceived and doing such terrible things to you! Not only did she harm you, but she also harmed herself!

It’s no wonder that back then, you took Qin Yao away at the wedding, causing humiliation for Xiao Rou. As elders, we always thought it was your fault, but in the end, the main culprits turned out to be our lack of strict discipline..."
