The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 800: Chapter 781: I Am Not a Slut 92

Talking about his own situation, Gu Kai couldn’t help but bitterly smile.

These years, he had truly been exhausted.

It wasn’t just the relatives from the Gu family who were constantly causing trouble, even his mother never gave him peace.

Exhaustion, along with the cold, lifeless home, almost turned Gu Kai into a working machine.

It was only after meeting Jiang Anping and the Jiang family that he felt like he came back to life.

Initially, when Wei Jiaming visited the Jiang family, Gu Kai had laughed at Wei Jiaming for being selfish, thinking that he intentionally hid the situation at home, wanting to reveal it only when Jiang Anan truly fell for him and couldn’t leave him, which was deceiving a wife.

But when it came to his own turn, Gu Kai made the same decision as Wei Jiaming.

He also concealed many frustrating matters about his family.

He didn’t want Anping to know these things, fearing that once the glossy facade of the Gu family was peeled away, revealing the ugly truth inside, Anping wouldn’t be able to accept it and would break up with him.

Having experienced warmth, he did not want to return to that cold home.

Upon hearing that Anning knew about Gu Kai’s situation, Mr. Jiang called her over.

”Second, do you know Xiao Gu?”

Anning smiled, ”Yes, I worked at Gu Corporation for over a year, he is the president of Gu Corporation.”

Anning had barely finished speaking when Third, who was helping in the kitchen, dashed out.

She scrutinized Gu Kai from head to toe, her brows furrowed tight: ”You are President Gu?”

Gu Kai stood up, apprehensive and full of apologies as he looked at Third: ”Pingping, I’m sorry, I... didn’t tell you about my status...”

Mr. Jiang’s brow also furrowed.

It wasn’t that Gu Kai was bad, but his conditions were too good.

There is an old saying: ”Unequals do not suit.” When the gap between two families is too wide, there will be many problems.

These problems cannot be resolved just based on the couple’s good feelings for each other.

”You...”

Third was quite angry: ”I think we need to carefully consider our relationship.”

”Pingping.”

Gu Kai followed Third into the kitchen: ”Pingping, listen to me, I didn’t mean to deceive you, you never asked about my job, and I couldn’t just tell you outright that I am the president of Gu Corporation, if I told you that, wouldn’t you have laughed at me for daydreaming?”

What Gu Kai said made some sense.

But Third found it hard to listen.

Mrs. Jiang, having heard, told Third: ”Alright, you two go outside to talk, don’t create a disturbance here.”

Third pulled Gu Kai out onto the balcony.

She stared into Gu Kai’s eyes and asked: ”Why didn’t you tell me before you came?”

Gu Kai rubbed his temples, struggling: ”I was afraid you’d be angry, I didn’t dare tell you, Pingping, I’ve never been so scared of anything in my life, I thought I had the courage to face all difficulties, but in front of you, I am truly very scared, I am afraid of losing you.”

Hearing this made Third’s expression soften a bit: ”Are you serious about me? This isn’t just a fling?”

Gu Kai felt extremely helpless: ”If I wasn’t serious, why would I come back with you to meet the parents? Pingping, I’ll say it again, I intend to marry you, I am absolutely sincere, there has never been any falsehood.”

Third saw sincerity in Gu Kai’s eyes.

She smiled slightly: ”Well... alright, but I have to tell you, if your family opposes us, you need to handle it, I don’t want to bother with that.”

”Okay.”

Gu Kai smiled: ”As long as you don’t reject me, leave everything to me to handle.”

When the two returned to the living room, both wore smiles on their faces.

Mr. Jiang looked on with bitter feelings.

The kids have grown up, indeed, when children grow, they don’t listen to their mothers, and daughters cannot be kept at home.

Seeing Gu Kai coming into the living room, Mrs. Jiang poked her head out of the kitchen: ”Xiao Gu, come help aunty with the garlic.”

Gu Kai dared not refuse, hurriedly rolled up his sleeves and entered the kitchen: ”Aunty, let me help, just tell me what to do.”

Wei Jiaming seeing this also hurried in: ”Aunty, let me help cut the vegetables.”

Both future sons-in-law entered the kitchen.

Mr. Jiang looked at Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan looked back at Mr. Jiang: ”Uncle, let’s have another game of chess.”

Mr. Jiang shook his head: ”I’m not in the mood, playing chess with you is just asking for suffering.”

In the kitchen, Mrs. Jiang, watching the eldest son-in-law peel onions and the third son-in-law peel garlic, then looking at the looks of these two sons-in-law and thinking about the one in the living room, her smile grew wider.

One can’t exactly talk about others, but these three sons-in-law, each looks more impressive than the last, they all really have the kind of face that makes a mother-in-law laugh.

A mother-in-law seeing her son-in-law feels more and more happy.

She asked Gu Kai while washing vegetables: ”Xiao Gu, does your mom know about you and Third?”

Gu Kai smiled and answered: ”Yes, I told her long ago, it’s just that she’s currently playing abroad and won’t return for a while, otherwise, she would definitely visit with me.”

If that is so, then the Gu family has no objections to Third.

Mrs. Jiang smiled even more happily.

Gu Kai thought, how could Ms. Gu disagree.

She had pursued true love all her life, as long as you tell her it’s pure love, she would never oppose.

After lunch, Anning pulled Gu Kai aside: ”President Gu, I have something I’d like to discuss with you.”

Third glanced at Anning and then motioned upstairs: ”Why don’t you talk upstairs?”

Upstairs was Third’s place, it was always empty but it was quiet.

”Okay.”

Anning thought for a moment: ”You come with us too.”
