Chapter 421 - Forgiveness, Marriage
After receiving Xiao Lingyu’s words, Gong Tianhao would report to the Xiao family every day. No matter how hard Father and Mother Xiao tried to make things difficult for him, he would apologize profusely.
However, no matter his excuses, it was a fact that he had caused harm to Xiao Lingyu.
Gong Tianhao said in a very serious and sincere manner, “Uncle, Auntie, I know I was wrong. I have hurt Yu ‘Er. I apologize to all of you.
“However, I will definitely treat Yu ‘Er even better in the future. I will not let her suffer any grievances. Please forgive me this time.”
Mother Xiao and Father Xiao were silent for a moment before they looked at Gong Tianhao seriously.
Mother Xiao sighed and said, “Forget it. It’s not entirely your fault for concealing the child’s identity. Yu ‘Er is also responsible. She hid the truth from us too.”
Father Xiao nodded and said, “Both you and Yu ‘Er know about the child’s identity, but neither of you told us anything. You two are worrying. Why did you hide this from us?
“We might be angry if you told us about it, but how long will that last? On the contrary, we’d be happy about it. At least we won’t worry about the child being illegitimate. In fact, he has a father, and his father is always by his side.”
Gong Tianhao said, “I was afraid that Yu ‘Er would misunderstand I was only after her because of the child.”
Mother Xiao said sharply, “But in the end, didn’t that happen as well? It fooled all of us and even made us scold her for it. Now, I finally understand why Yu ‘Er carried that secret.” At this point, Mother Xiao paused for a moment and said earnestly, “Tianhao, in relationships, both parties must be sincere, honest, and trusting. This will reduce all kinds of misunderstandings.
“If you marry Yu ‘Er in the future, I hope that you will be sincere to my Yu ‘Er and trust each other. Tianhao, can you promise me something?” When she asked this question, Mother Xiao’s expression was serious.

Gong Tianhao nodded his head seriously and said, “Yes, Auntie, please say it!”
Mother Xiao said, “Tianhao, I’m saying that if, if you lose your feelings for Yu ‘Er in the future, I hope that you can tell her. Also, I’m asking you to try not to hurt Yu ‘Er, okay? “Auntie knows how powerful you are. If you really want to hurt Yu ‘Er, there’s nothing we can do. But I will do my best to protect my daughter. Right now, Auntie is requesting you as a mother. Can you do that for me?”
Gong Tianhao listened to Mother Xiao with a serious and solemn expression. He said very seriously, “Uncle, Auntie, I will not betray this relationship, and I will never hurt Yu ‘Er. Please believe me.”
Father Xiao and Mother Xiao looked at each other and fell silent for a moment.
Father Xiao patted Tianhao’s shoulder and said, “Tianhao, Uncle and Auntie believe you. But I hope you can understand our concern for our children as parents.”
Father Xiao paused and said, “Yu ‘Er has always been stubborn since she was young. She has good ideas and is sensible. She rarely worries us.
“The only time that she worried us was when she got into a relationship when she was 15. Even though we tried to stop her, she fell stubbornly in love with that kid from the Chen Family.
“This relationship lasted for ten years. However, ten years later, she was betrayed and framed. As her parents, our hearts really ached for her.
“Now that Yu ‘Er has opened her heart and accepted your feelings, it means that she really likes you. That’s why uncle and Auntie hope that you won’t hurt her in the future.”
Even when one lived to 100 years old, they would worry about their children until they were 99.
Gong Tianhao nodded and said, “Uncle, I promise that I won’t hurt Yu ‘Er. I will definitely protect Yu ‘Er and the child. I won’t let anyone hurt them either.”
Father Xiao and Mother Xiao nodded.
Father Xiao said, “I hope you will keep your promise. Go in and take a look at Yu ‘Er. She is so anxious in the courtyard. She’s so worried that her mother and I will eat you up.”
In the courtyard, Xiao Lingyu knew that Gong Tianhao had visited again. She forgot the number of times Gong Tianhao had been rejected outside the door. She thought it would be the same this time.
She wanted to go out and plead for Gong Tianhao.
After all, she was responsible for hiding the child’s father’s identity too. Her parents couldn’t completely blame Gong Tianhao.
As for the identity of the richest man in the country, Gong Tianhao really didn’t know how to say it. He couldn’t just randomly drop that fact. No one would have believed him. Furthermore, if he revealed his identity before he won her over, there might be some additional blockages. Therefore, it was understandable that he didn’t say anything.
Xiao Lingyu couldn’t sit still in the courtyard any longer. She stood up and was about to walk towards the door.
“Yu ‘Er, your father and mother know what’s best for you. Don’t worry.”She had just stood up when Grandma Xiao stopped her. She tried to persuade her, “If you go over now, you might add fuel to the fire. Your father and mother might make things even more difficult for Tianhao.”
Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment before sitting down again.
However, her eyes were fixed on the entrance of the courtyard.
After an unknown amount of time, her father, mother, and Gong Tianhao entered the courtyard.
When she saw Gong Tianhao enter the courtyard, Xiao Lingyu’s eyes lit up. There was an indescribable joy in her eyes. Did this mean her parents have forgiven Gong Tianhao? “Tianhao.” Xiao Lingyu immediately stood up and walked toward Gong Tianhao. She held his hand and asked, “Tianhao, did your parents make things difficult for you?”
Father and Mother Xiao, “..” Does this child still have us in her eyes? To think she’d ask that question when we’re still around! She chose her boyfriend over us.
Father and Mother Xiao felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts. They suddenly missed their daughter, who was neither cold nor warm towards Gong Tianhao. Mother Xiao immediately said loudly, “Xiao Lingyu, what do you think the kind of person we are?”
Gong Tianhao saw that Mother Xiao was about to flare up, so he immediately grabbed Xiao Lingyu’s hand and said, “Yu ‘Er, no, no. Uncle and Auntie definitely didn’t make things difficult for me. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have let me in.”
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Oh, that’s
good.”
Then, she turned to her parents and said, “Father, mother, I have also hidden the child’s matter. I am also responsible. You can’t blame Tianhao for everything.”
Father Xiao and Mother Xiao, “..”
The rest of the Xiao family, “..”
Things changed so fast!
Mother Xiao said with disdain, “That’s enough. You’re pregnant. Hurry up and sit down.” Xiao Lingyu, “..” It sounds like I’ve accidentally stepped on Mom’s toes. This is not good.
At this moment, Mother Xiao said, “Yu ‘Er, the Doctor said that your stomach is too big and you have to go on a diet. So in the future, I will cook less meat for you.”
As expected, revenge came.
Ever since she was pregnant, Xiao Lingyu gained a preference for meat.
At first, it was still okay. After all, the child was still young, so Mother Xiao could only satisfy Xiao Lingyu’s appetite. But as her stomach grew bigger, she began to worry.
This stomach was too big, and it won’t be easy to give birth.
Thus, she started to control Xiao Lingyu’s diet, but she would still cook her daughter’s favorite meat. Now that her daughter had turned against her, Mother Xiao naturally wanted to teach her a lesson.
Gong Tianhao pulled Xiao Lingyu to sit down. He glanced at Father, Mother Xiao and Grandmother Xiao and said with a very serious expression, “Auntie, I want to marry Yu ‘Er. I will definitely not let Yu ‘Er down. I will love and Dote on her for the rest of my life. I will not let anyone, even myself, hurt her.”
The Xiao family had been discussing their marriage two days ago.
Previously, Father Xiao thought that since the Gong family had not come forward to propose the marriage, it would not be convenient for them to bring it up. In fact, they were even a little worried.
