Chapter 174: Urged to Get Married
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mo Yu had always been active in eating. She skipped over. Gu Lian slowly walked over. He was still thinking about the summit and the development of the game.
At the dining table, the family sat together happily. Mo Yu ate happily, while Su Mei and Gu Jiu smiled and watched her eat. From time to time, they would even pick up some food for her.
After Mo Yu was almost done eating and made sure that she had swallowed all the food in her mouth, Su Mei said, “Xiao Yu, Xiao Lian, if the two of you are free, go and register your marriage first. After all, it’s been so long. It’s not good to delay it. Pick a date to register your marriage and hold an engagement party.”
It was not unreasonable for Su Mei to rush them to get married. Mo Yu had been in the limelight at the jewelry exhibition. Although she was Gu Lian’s fiancee, people with ulterior motives knew that the two of them had not registered their marriage.
When Su Mei looked at her cell phone today, she realized that many people were discussing if Mo Yu and Gu Lian had yet to register their marriage because the two of them were acting and actually did not like each other at all.
It was no wonder that others were discussing it like this. When Gu Lian was in a coma previously, he could not register his marriage and get engaged.
However, he had been awake for more than half a year. Everyone had witnessed him recover bit by bit from the coma.
If he really loved Mo Yu, shouldn’t he have gone to get the marriage certificate the first time he could move? In the end, there was no movement until now. It was inevitable that someone would make wild guesses.
Su Mei’s sudden urging to get married stunned Mo Yu.
Although she really liked the Gu family’s family atmosphere, she had never thought of marrying Gu Lian.
After all, Gu Lian was the person who tortured and killed the original host of the body in the original novel. She did not have Stockholm Syndrome and would not send herself to the tiger’s mouth.
Gu Lian was also slightly stunned. Only when Su Mei mentioned it did Gu Lian realize that he and Mo Yu had yet to register their marriage.
After interacting with her for so long, Gu Lian had completely forgotten about this matter. He glanced at Mo Yu, who had her head lowered in silence, from the corner of his eye and suddenly felt that it was not bad to marry her.
Compared to other socialites, Mo Yu was not that smart. She would not do a cheap shot or a cheap trick behind his back. She had her own limits and was also a very good shield that could help him avoid most meaningless socializing.
Thinking of this, Gu Lian could not help but be tempted. However, before he could agree, Mo Yu spoke before him.
“Mom, don’t rush us. I still want to cultivate my relationship with Gu Lian. After all, we haven’t been alone for too long. This summit is just nice for the two of us to go out together. Let’s talk about marriage when we come back, okay?”
Mo Yu hugged Su Mei’s hand and shook it coquettishly, making Su Mei nod in agreement.
When Gu Lian heard her rejection, for some reason, his heart suddenly ached.
Gu Lian’s thoughts began to uncontrollably wonder if Mo Yu did not like him. She took care of him because of his parents’ orders. When his body completely recovered, Mo Yu would leave.
When Gu Lian thought of this, he suddenly became unhappy.
He put down his chopsticks and said indifferently, “I’m full.” Then, he left his seat and returned to the room upstairs.
Mo Yu was also more or less done eating, let alone Gu Mei and Gu Jiu. Therefore, after dinner, Mo Yu accompanied Su Mei to watch television dramas while Gu Jiu walked into Gu Lian’s room.
“Lian, are you and Xiao Yu not on good terms?” Gu Jiu sat beside Gu Lian and decided to have a heart-to-heart talk with him.
Mo Yu and Su Mei might not be able to sense Gu Lian’s emotions, but Gu Jiu did. He planned to ask Gu Lian if he was willing to marry Mo Yu.
“Your mother mentioned marriage just now. You seem a little unhappy? Are you dissatisfied with Xiao Yu, or are you just not happy with this marriage arranged by your mother and me?”
“1 don’t know,” Gu Lian answered honestly.
In his memory, such a private conversation with his father only existed in the decisions of important matters. Gu Lian did not intend to hide it, so he told Gu Jiu his thoughts.
“When I was in a coma, 1 actually had my own consciousness. At that time, Mo Yu was not like now. She did her best to take care of me in the first few months, but as time passed, she began to abuse me.”
“But later on, she seemed to have found her conscience and started to treat me well again. I’m very conflicted. I’m not sure if 1 like her because it was true that 1 wanted to kill her back then. Now, it’s also true that I want her to live like this.”
Gu Lian expressed his feelings in confusion. In the end, he looked up at Gu Jiu. “Father, I don’t know what kind of feelings 1 have for her, so 1 don’t know if 1
should marry her..”
