Chapter 886: 886: What Are You Waiting For, Waiting For Her To Get Divorced?
After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage
After Lin Gantang left and his mother forcibly arranged an engagement with Shi Muzhen for him, Gu Zhichuanâs attitude towards Mrs. Gu grew colder and colder.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Mrs. Gu often tried to interfere in his love life. She had given birth to Gu Zhichuan, and he couldnât do anything against her, but he couldnât bear it anymore, so he chose to distance himself.
The reason he was willing to accompany her to the concert today was because⦠Gu Zhichuan looked around, searching for the person he wanted to see, despite not being 100% certain she was here.
That Porsche outside belonged to Lin Gantang.
Seeing her son not talking to her and the concert yet to start, Mrs. Gu, bored out of her wits, glanced around. With one look, she recognized someone sitting in the front two rows as very familiar.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Lin Gantang.
Mrs. Gu immediately turned to look at Gu Zhichuan and noticed that his eyes were firmly affixed to the front.
Mrs. Gu understood at once.
So why had her indifferent son changed his mind and decided to accompany her to the concert?
He came to see Lin Gantang, putting aside the work he had agreed to do?
Mrs. Guâs face darkened: âYou still like Lin Gantang? Is this why you refuse to go on blind dates?â
Gu Zhichuan looked at his mother: âI donât go on blind dates because I donât have plans to marry.â
âNot marry?!â Mrs. Gu nearly screamed, but remembering she couldnât raise her voice here, she lowered her volume: âWhat nonsense are you talking about, our family only has one son, and you wonât marry?â
Gu Zhichuan had anticipated Mrs. Guâs reaction, knowing her temperament all too well, he had no desire to explain.
His indifference lit a new fire in Mrs. Guâs heart, and she almost asked through clenched teeth: âBecause of Lin Gantang? Do you plan to wait for her? Wait for what, wait until she gets divorced?â
Without him saying, Mrs. Gu had guessed it, feeling like the sky was falling: âLin Gantang is already married! Her wedding is next month! You wonât marry? What good is it if you donât marry!â
âIt has nothing to do with her.â
âIf itâs unrelated, would you be sitting here now?â Mrs. Gu became more agitated as she spoke: âShe doesnât like you, and as a daughter-in-law whoâs caused estrangement between mother and son like her, I wouldnât want her either!â
Gu Zhichuan replied with a cold laugh: âYou donât want her, but even if you asked her now, she wouldnât come.â
Mrs. Gu felt her son had lost his reason; Lin Gantang was toxic, why did her son still pine for her despite there being no relation left!
What could she do? Now Lin Gantang wasnât clinging to her son anymore. She simply turned her back and married someone else, leaving her son pining alone.
Mrs. Gu was going insane: âSomeone like Lin Gantang who turned around and went with someone else is not the faithful type. Even if you two hadnât broken up, how many years could she have stood by you?â
She had completely lost interest in the concert and stood up with a long face: âI want to go back, you take me.â
She couldnât let him stay at the same place with Lin Gantang, in case they had an opportunity to speak.
Mrs. Gu had forgotten to control her volume by then, and her sharp voice rose, attracting the attention of many people.
Gu Zhichuanâs expression turned cold.
He saw Lin Gantang turning her head and subconsciously frowning upon discovering him and Mrs. Gu.
He didnât want to see the look of disgust on Lin Gantangâs face again and got up to leave the hall.
However, he didnât fulfill Mrs. Guâs wishes to escort her back himself; instead, he called the driver to pick her up and stood outside alone, lighting a cigarette and bringing it to his lips.
The faint wisps of smoke twirled.
Mrs. Gu, with a stern face, was about to speak again but, meeting Gu Zhichuanâs extremely cold eyes, a sudden chill settled in her heart.
In her sonâs eyes, she couldnât find a trace of warmth towards his mother.
Mrs. Guâs heart suddenly raced with fear.
