Chapter 455: Never Forgive

Translator: Yunyi Editor: Yunyi

As the sounds of joyful laughter traveled into her ears from afar, Gu Shuling did not look pleased. The jealousy in her heart slithered around like a venomous snake, making her uncomfortable and angry. These feelings developed into a destructive hatred that gave her the urge to make everyone that she disliked disappear from the world.

She threw her chopsticks on the dining table.

Gu Chen entered just in time to catch this scene.

He walked straight over and sat down opposite Gu Shuling. The middle-aged man was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, looking noble, refined, reliable, and mature, without losing any of his majesty.

As soon as she saw Gu Chen, Gu Shuling jumped in fright. She then looked pitifully at the man and shouted in grief, “Daddy.”

Gu Chen looked at her and said indifferently, “Give up.”

Yesterday, when he said there was no room left, that was all a lie. Gu Shuling had pleaded Gu Chen to speak to Fang Zhihan because she knew he would never reject the man as long as it wasn’t too unreasonable.

That’s how she managed to stay in the courtyard.

Tears fell from Gu Shuling’s eyes and her voice was choked up, “Daddy...I really like him.”

“What do you like about him? How many times have you met over the years? While he was in the military, you were studying overseas. When you returned from overseas, he ended up going overseas. And when he returned, he placed his entire focus on work. He comes and goes like a ghost and no one ever knows where he is. You only see each other once or twice a year; your paths don’t cross at all. Why would you like him?” Gu Chen asked.

“I don’t know either. All I know is I like him. A long time ago, when he first handed me that orange, I already fell in love with him and decided to love him for life,” Gu Shuling replied.

When she saw her father furrow his brows, she quickly added, “At that time, I remember he was familiar with my sister. When I fell in love with him, I didn’t even know his name. I’ve loved him for so many years. If you ask me to suddenly stop loving him, I don’t know how to do it.”

“He already has a girlfriend,” Gu Chen did not sound satisfied with Fang Zhihan. “The only reason why I agreed to your request was so you could view the situation properly and not hang yourself on this one tree.”

“But, Daddy, if sister comes back, won’t he have to give her an explanation?”

Gu Chen humphed, “If I don’t want you to be with him, I naturally won’t allow your sister to marry him either. Back then, if not for him, your sister wouldn’t have gone missing.”

Gu Chen had been in the business world for many years and read the minds of countless people. Fang Zhihan was the only rascal that he had misread.

This man had no feelings and was heartless from a young age.

When someone was described as cold, at least cold was a type of emotion.

But, when it came to Fang Zhihan, he could only be described as indifferent.

The type of indifference that had no emotion.

His biggest regret in life was letting him in their home because of Xiao Yu and letting her play with him every day.

He mistakenly thought this child was cold but sincere to his Xiao Yu. That his icy coldness was just an emotion that could be melted into water by Xiao Yu.

Who knew, when danger came around, he only cared for his own life. What emotions did he have?

He was momentarily blind.

That’s how he ruined his daughter’s life.

No matter how many years passed, he was never going to forgive this rascal.

Even if Xiao Yu found her way back, he was not going to let this rascal get close to her again!
