Chapter 452: I’m Not Asking for Your Opinion
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi- Bo Studio
“Mom, I’m just informing you, not seeking your opinion,” Gu Shaoting spoke calmly.
“Are you trying to anger me? You’re my son, would I harm you? With your status, you could find any woman you want. At the very least, find someone from a similar background who can assist each other,” Song Can said indignantly.
“My career doesn’t need someone to add luster to it,” he replied. He had never considered marrying into another influential family.
Was he crazy? Was his happiness more important or was his career? He would work hard for his career.
“I disagree, and I won’t attend your wedding,” Song Can said stubbornly.
Gu Shaoting’s eyes dimmed.
“Mom, I respect you, which is why I’m telling you this now. Let me reiterate, I will only marry Shu Pan, and we also have a daughter, Joy. Don’t you want the best for your granddaughter?” Gu Shaoting couldn’t understand why Song Can didn’t like Shu Pan.
Shu Pan was always kind and respectful to others, including her. She always obeyed her commands.
“Suit yourself,” Song Can said with a sour expression.
She regretted coming back. Maybe it was better to settle abroad. Out of sight, out of mind. But now she was starting to feel attached to Joy.
“I’ll come back to see you when I have time,” Gu Shaoting said, seeing that the conversation was getting too heated to continue.
“When will you change Joy’s name back to our family name? She’s our Gu family’s granddaughter. She should bear the Gu surname, not Shuts,” Song Can had thought about this for a long time but hadn’t had the chance to bring it up.
“I haven’t discussed this with Shu Pan yet. Anyway, she’s our child. What does it matter what surname she has? Let’s see what Shu Pan wants. If she wants to change it, she can, if not, then so be it,” Gu Shaoting felt this was a trivial matter. He wasn’t that rigid.
“No, it must be changed,” Song Can got angry seeing Gu Shaoting’s indifferent attitude. Had he been enchanted by Shu Pan?
“Mom, don’t worry about this. I have a plan,” Gu Shaoting didn’t want to upset her further, so he brushed it off lightly.
“Grandma, Daddy, are you fighting?” Joy suddenly came out of the room, hearing loud voices outside.
“No, your dad and I were just discussing something. Adults tend to speak loudly when they talk,” Song Can quickly replied, feeling remorseful for forgetting that Joy was still in the room.
She was very clear about this. It wasn’t good for a child’s development to witness arguments between adults.
“Yeah, Joy, we’re going home now. Mommy is waiting for us at home,” Gu Shaoting said, taking Joy’s hand.
“Sweetie, remember to visit Grandma more often in the future, okay?” Song Can said, her eyes filled with indulgence, a complete contrast to her earlier angry expression.
“Okay,” Joy replied in her childish voice.
Back at home, Shu Pan had just woken up.
“Here, I packed some snacks for you,” Gu Shaoting smiled slightly, feeling relaxed only at home.
“That’s great, I’m hungry,” Shu Pan said coquettishly, her voice soft and sweet.
Seeing her playful demeanor, Gu Shaoting’s heart skipped a beat.
Fresh out of bed, her cheeks were rosy, her long hair casually tied into a ponytail with a few strands falling naturally, giving her a lazy yet charming look.
Gu Shaoting was a bit mesmerized. Why did he feel like he couldn’t get enough of her? He almost wanted to tie her to his waist.
“What are you staring at?” Shu Pan waved her hand in front of him.
“Nothing,” he grabbed her hand and kissed it.
“Stop fooling around, Joy is here,” Shu Pan tapped him lightly.
“Eat up. Why did you come back so soon today? Weren’t you supposed to go shopping with Xiaomeng?” Gu Shaoting hung up his coat and casually asked..
