Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Old Master Cui saw that there was no change in Gu Man’s expression and his words were blocked. Then, he sighed weakly.
lie could only blame himself for not accompanying Gu Man for so many years. Now, he did not know what ident.i.ty he had to stop her.
Old Master Cui thought that his ident.i.ty did not seem appropriate. After all, he had been absent for so many years.
However, Old Master Cui was still indignant. Before he could accompany Gu Man properly, someone tried to kidnap her.
“Manman, we can let you do anything else, but not this. You’re still young and can’t differentiate right from wrong, nor can you differentiate between feelings. We’ll just think that you acted on impulse.”
Her grandmother, who had always been harmonious, had an especially serious expression on her face at this moment. She stared seriously in Gu Man’s direction.
Gu Man did not understand either. She had only mentioned their relationship. Why were they overreacting?
“I can recognize my feelings. I know what I’m doing.” Her tone was exceptionally firm and unquestionable.
Her aura as a high-ranking person could not help but spread out, making even her grandmother shrink back.
Grandma stared at Gu Man’s face for a long time before she seemed to compromise.
“Manman, are you really sure? You have to know that your mother…” At this point, Grandma stopped talking and looked at Xiang Yin obscurely.
Although she had felt that Xiang Yin was a good person during this period of time, she had also thought so of Gu Yuan in the beginning. After all, who would know his true colors until the end?
“I know.”
Gu Man’s words made the others not know how to answer. The surroundings were exceptionally quiet, and only Gu Man’s face was extremely firm.
In the end, it was Huang Jun who spoke first to break the silence. “Manman, you’re still in your third year of high school. It’s not suitable for you to date. You can talk about this after the holidays.”
Gu Man frowned slightly and was about to answer Xiang Yin, who was beside her, when he grabbed her arm.
“I’ll take over from here. Go upstairs and accompany Ah Mai and Huang Jue.” Xiang Yin knew that this matter had to be resolved now. Otherwise, it would only make their impression of him worse.
Gu Man looked at Xiang Yin in confusion. The moment she met his gaze, she stood up after a few seconds.
After Gu Man left, the atmosphere in the living room did not recover. Instead, it became even more solemn.
Xiang Yin sat there and hesitated for a long time. In the end, he decided to take the initiative to say, “I know this is very sudden, but I’m indeed sincere. I’ll use time to prove my feelings for her.”
“What time! Let me tell you, you have to separate now.” Old Master Cui’s fiery temper erupted the moment Xiang Yin spoke. Just now, he was worried that Gu Man would be present. Now that she had left, there was nothing to worry about.
He still wanted Gu Man to accompany him for a few more years. How could she date so early on?
Even if this person was Xiang Yin.
Xiang Yin knew that this hurdle was very difficult to overcome, but if he could not even overcome this difficulty, he was not worthy of liking Gu Man.
“I’m sincere. If you don’t believe me, I can choose to separate from her and not delay her. However, I’ll use time to prove that I’m not lying.”
Xiang Yin did not hesitate at all to say this to confirm their relationship. The two of them liked each other. As long as their feelings were there, it did not matter even if they did not have this relationship.
However, he needed to calm Gu Man’s elders down. He did not want the relationship between Gu Man and her family to be affected because of the two of them being together.
Xiang Yin’s words caused the entire scene to fall silent again. Grandma sighed softly and pinched her eyebrows with a headache. Her face was filled with vicissitudes.
“Xiang Yin, it’s not that 1 don’t want to believe you, but something similar happened in our family, so I don’t want Manman to be hampered by love because Manman’s att.i.tude is very firm. I’m willing to believe her this once, but this doesn’t mean that we acknowledge you.”
In the end, her grandmother compromised. Instead of preventing future events, she might as well let it happen. She didn’t want her granddaughter to complain about this in the future..
