Chapter 1470: We Broke Up; Please Show Some Self-Respect

Guo Yueliang saw it was her own father and gave him no pleasant look.

Her own daughter had been bullied so badly by the wife he married later; how could she possibly give him a pleasant face?

She went straight upstairs, grabbed the things she had left behind, then hurriedly came back down: "If there's anything, we'll talk when I get back."

She wouldn't take a stance in advance; she just wanted to see what her father would do this time. If he still stood on that woman's side, then from now on she would pretend she had no father.

Seeing his daughter's expression, Guo Fengze knew she was blaming him: "Daughter, rest assured. I will definitely seek justice for you on this matter. And this time, I stand on your side."

Guo Yueliang gave him a cold glance: "You'd better keep your word. I'm going on a business trip, and my return date is uncertain."

Having said that, she ignored both of them and walked straight out of the house.

Just as he had walked not far, he ran into Gu Minglei, who was coming toward him in a hurry, carrying a bag of food: "Liangliang, where are you going?"

Although Guo Yueliang had made her decision, seeing Gu Minglei still made her heart ache: "You don't need to know about my affairs now, right? Please step aside."

Seeing her about to leave, Gu Minglei quickly reached out to grab her.

Guo Yueliang stepped back: "Gu Minglei, we've broken up. Please show some self-respect."

Hearing this, Gu Minglei grew anxious: "Liangliang, that was just a misunderstanding. I came today specifically to explain what happened that day."

Hearing those words, Guo Yueliang's eyes still helplessly turned red: "It's been half a month. Where were you all this time? I made it very clear that day. Since you two had mutual affection, I'll let you be together."

Gu Minglei's eyes also turned red with anger at her words: "Guo Yueliang, I've already said it was just a misunderstanding. It wasn't that I didn't want to explain to you immediately, but I received a call from the bureau at that time and had to leave first."

Gu Minglei might have felt he was too agitated: "Liangliang, I'm sorry. I wasn't angry at you; I was just too afraid that because of what happened that day, you wouldn't listen to my explanation and would simply ignore me."

Guo Yueliang did not soften: "I'm sorry, but I'm in a hurry now. Please step aside."

Gu Minglei feared that if he didn't explain clearly today, he and Guo Yueliang would truly part ways forever: "I won't step aside. Listen to my full explanation."

Guo Yueliang also had her temper: "You say you had matters at the bureau that day, so you could just walk away. Today, I'm in a rush to catch my train. You didn't even listen clearly. I also have a job. Why should I delay my work schedule just to hear your explanation?"

Even if what he said were true, she would not easily forgive him. Moreover, so many people saw what happened that day, and the words Hu Jingxiu said made her feel deeply uncomfortable.

Since this person had no sense of boundaries and was so easily manipulated, it was better to stay far away from him.

Why should she have suffered for so long, only to be asked to forgive him with a single word of "misunderstanding"? It would be better to take this business trip to calm her mind and think things through clearly.

She glanced at the watch on her wrist: "Gu Minglei, I really need to catch my train. Whether this is a true misunderstanding or there's some hidden truth, I think we both need to calm down and think things through properly."

Gu Minglei wanted to say more but feared truly angering her: "Liangliang, I know it was wrong of me to leave that day without a single word of explanation. I'll give you time to calm down, but please promise me that when you return from your business trip, you'll give me a chance to explain, okay?"

Before Guo Yueliang could reply, she heard Hu Jingxiu's voice: "Gu Minglei, what are you doing?"
