Mu Wanqing couldn't be bothered with Mo Huiling, and the group went inside.
"You …" Mo Huiling wanted to go in too, but the Gu family ignored her. They just let the bodyguards take her away without looking at her.
She knew that it was because the child in her belly was precious.
However, she was treated as a pregnant machine. It was as if she was nothing without this child. This feeling made her very angry.
"Hmph, when I give birth to the eldest grandson of the Gu family, you … you just wait."
Mo Huiling watched as the Gu family walked towards the hall next to the park. The people around them seemed to be still discussing.
She said, "Can't you take me to the hall too?"
The bodyguard said, "I'm sorry, Miss Mo, you can't."
"I …" Mo Huiling said, "The hall isn't private. I can go there myself."
The bodyguard was expressionless. "The Gu family has booked the hall today."
"You …"
Alright, the Gu family had a big business. They could book all the places at the foot of the mountain if they came to visit the grave.
Mo Huiling could only follow the bodyguard to a small pavilion to rest. She sat in the middle, feeling gloomy.
—
All the members of the Gu Family entered the hall of the club.
What was supposed to be a good family gathering had now become abnormally serious.
Lin Che and Gu Jingze found a seat and sat down. Everyone followed suit. Mu Wanqing sat in the middle, Gu Lanshan sat in front, and Gu Yiran sat in the back. There was only one son in the previous generation of the Gu family, which was Gu Jingze's bloodline. Therefore, Gu Jingze did not have an uncle, only an aunt.
The two aunts were also ladies of a respectable family. Usually, they wouldn't care about the family's affairs because they had their own businesses to run. However, they couldn't ignore it today. After all, it concerned the next generation of the Gu family.
Gu Lanshan said, "Jingze, you really can't be sure that the child in Mo Huiling's belly isn't yours, right?"
Gu Jingze said, "I'm sure."
"How can you be sure?"
"The stored sperm hasn't been touched. Her statement isn't valid, so it naturally isn't mine."
"Jingze, we are family. Auntie will be straightforward. Don't be angry. We don't just have one or two of them. We have some at home. They are frozen in small glass bottles. How do you know that there are no less than one of them?"
Gu Jingze said, "Aunt, what do you mean by that?"
Gu Lanshan replied, "Whether it's your child or not, we'll know once it's born. Don't touch her for the time being. If it's your child, we'll have to raise it once it's born. I think Xiaoche isn't the kind of person who isn't generous enough to raise a child for you. If it's not, she can give birth if she wants. Once she's born, the Gu family can just ignore it."
Gu Jingze said, "It has nothing to do with Lin Che. It's me who doesn't want to raise her. Even if she's mine, I won't want her. My woman won't suffer like this. If I let Lin Che suffer like this, what right do I have to be her husband?"
"You …" Gu Lanshan said, "Don't be so willful."
"Moreover, I'm sure that this child isn't mine."
Gu Yiran tried to be the peacemaker. "Alright, since you're sure, we don't have to discuss it anymore. Whether this child is yours or not, we won't let you raise it. However, you and Lin Che have been married for quite some time. You should consider having a child as soon as possible. If you had a child earlier, we wouldn't be so anxious. After all, there isn't a single child in this generation of the Gu family. That's why we're anxious."
Gu Lanshan said, "That means we're anxious because you're not working hard.
Gu Jingze stood up and looked at Gu Lanshan. "Whether or not we have a child, and how many we have, is between Lin Che and me. It has nothing to do with outsiders."
"You … Jingze, what do you mean?"
Gu Jingze looked at Eldest Aunt coldly.
Gu Lanshan felt a chill run down her spine. She sat there and looked at Gu Jingze.
After all, the Gu family's main family was there. Moreover, Gu Jingze's power was the strongest in the Gu family.
Even though this nephew of hers was her biological nephew, he had been independent since he was young and no one could control him.
He had been domineering for so many years and no one could control him. It was one thing to give her face, but it was another thing when he didn't want to give her face.
Gu Lanshan didn't dare to say much. She could only say calmly, "I'm just giving a suggestion. The Mo family is not an ordinary family. It's not worth it to fall out because of a child."
Mu Wanqing stood up and said, "Alright, that's it. I'll talk to Mo Huiling later and see what we can do. As for this child, we definitely won't want it."
Gu Lanshan said, "Alright, since you don't want to listen to me, I'll have to talk to Father. I just hope that the Gu family's reputation will not be tarnished because of an unborn child. If Mo Huiling goes out and causes a ruckus, it won't be good for the Gu family's reputation either."
Having said that, Gu Lanshan snorted and walked out.
Lin Che stood up and tugged at Gu Jingze.
"Alright …" Seeing that everyone had left, she raised her head and said to Gu Jingze, "Forget it. Don't fall out with everyone because of this."
Gu Jingze held her hand and said, "What I said is what I think. If I let you raise a child for someone else, then I'd be too irresponsible as a husband."
Lin Che's heart warmed. With his words, she was satisfied.
How could she not be satisfied that he was so considerate of her?
She said, "Why are you so nice to me …"
Gu Jingze said, "You're my wife. Who should I be nice to if not you?"
He lowered his head and looked at her with his hand on her shoulder.
How could he bear to see her suffer? How could he bear to see her raise a child for someone else? Moreover, it was Mo Huiling who gave birth to the child.
Lin Che said, "But it's not unreasonable for them to say that. If you fall out with them because of me … wouldn't that be bad?"
Gu Jingze smiled coldly. "Since I've decided on something, they'll have to look at their own abilities if they want to force me. If they insist on going against me, no matter who they are, they'll have to pay the price for going against me."
Lin Che suddenly felt that he was so domineering …
She raised her head and looked at the man who had an indifferent expression on his face, but there was a strong aura in his eyes.
He was so handsome.
Gu Jingze said, "As for Mo Huiling, don't worry about her. She won't affect us. If she wants to give birth, she can do it herself. Anyway, that child won't be mine."
