Chapter 418 Heart to Heart
Gong Tianhao did not expect that Xiao Lingyu, who was so smart and confident in his eyes, would actually feel inferior and not confident enough when it came to her feelings.
She avoided him because she didn’t feel she was good enough. However, the reason why Xiao Lingyu was not confident enough in her feelings was that he did not give her enough sense of security. That was why she doubted his feelings for her. Gong Tianhao clenched his fists and took a deep breath.
‘I have to do something!’ Gong Tianhao suddenly sat up and placed his hands on her shoulders. He said with a serious expression, “Yu ‘Er, it is my fault that you have no confidence in yourself and even doubted my feelings for you. I have never thought about this before.”
Tere
Xiao Lingyu stared blankly at Gong Tianhao, who was sitting up. Her eyes were red and swollen, and there were tears at the corners of her eyes.
Gong Tianhao reached out his hands and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. His eyes revealed a pained expression as he asked in a serious and serious tone, “Yu ‘Er, you have no confidence in me and are even worried about our future after we get married.
“The reason is that I’m the richest man in the country, right?”
Xiao Lingyu blinked and answered honestly, “Yes!”
Then, she said honestly, “From the moment I found out about your identity, I couldn’t treat you as an ordinary man.
“I used to work in a big company in City Z and saw many rich and powerful men.
“Among those men, many of them had young and beautiful mistresses because their wives had turned old.
“But these people seemed to forget that their wives were once beautiful girls too. They suffered with their husbands because of love. So they took off their beautiful dresses, put on ordinary household clothes, stayed at home to care for their husband and children, and waited on their in-laws.
“However, the husbands didn’t see that. They only saw how their wives had turned into middle-aged women. The women sacrificed so much to make the men successful, only for the men to find another woman, a young and beautiful woman.
“Gong Tianhao, don’t you feel sad for these women?”
Gong Tianhao’s eyes darkened. Just as he was about to say something, Xiao Lingyu placed her hand on his mouth, indicating for him to stop talking for the time being. “Shh, don’t say anything. Let me finish.”
Xiao Lingyu continued, “Gong Tianhao, you already have all the wealth, so I don’t need to sacrifice anything for you. “However, I’m just an ordinary woman. It’s precisely because you already have everything that I don’t believe that your love for me can last a lifetime.
“It’s precisely because you have everything that I know other women would throw themselves at you. You’d always be surrounded by beautiful women.
“So, if I marry you, do you want me to worry about you and those women every day? I would spend my days fighting with those women, and that is not a life I want for myself. That life will just be miserable.
“Actually, I didn’t think that you really wanted to marry me. I always thought that your feelings for me were just novel. After the phase passes, I’ll end up as another one of your exes. “Therefore, I have never considered marrying
you.”
Gong Tianhao, “…” The misunderstanding was simply too big.
“Yu ‘Er,” Gong Tianhao suddenly grabbed Xiao Lingyu’s hand tightly and said very seriously, “If you are so worried about that, then I will transfer all of my current wealth to your name and let you be the richest person in the country.
“I’ll be an ordinary man who works for you. Would that make you feel more at ease? No other women would come after me then.”
When Xiao Lingyu heard Gong Tianhao’s words, she was stunned.
The people who were listening outside were even more stunned. Transferring one’s entire wealth was not a decision that an ordinary man could make. Gong Tianhao really liked Xiao Lingyu. To make Xiao Lingyu feel more secure, he volunteered to do this.
Even Old Master Gong was surprised. However, he was not angry.
Xiao Lingyu looked at Gong Tianhao in a daze and asked in disbelief, “You… Gong Tianhao, what did you say just now?”
Gong Tianhao held Xiao Lingyu’s face and stared at Xiao Lingyu’s eyes with a serious expression, “I said that I want to transfer all my wealth to your name. Then, I, Gong Tianhao, will become a pauper. Which woman would like a pauper? Will you stop worrying then?”
After Xiao Lingyu reacted, she pushed Gong Tianhao away in panic and said loudly, “Gong Tianhao, don’t joke with me like that.”
Gong Tianhao was the richest man in the country. The wealth in his hands was not in the hundreds of millions but in the hundreds of billions. She couldn’t believe it at all.
However, when Xiao Lingyu looked at Gong Tianhao’s serious face, she realized that Gong Tianhao was not joking with her. She was stunned. There was a warm current in her heart. The emotions that she had been hiding and enduring all this while were like boiling lava in the ground. It was unstoppable. Gong Tianhao said, “Yu ‘Er, if you don’t believe me, I will call my lawyer right now and ask him to complete the formalities. You will be the richest woman in the country.”
With that, Gong Tianhao picked up the phone on the bedside table and was about to make a call.
The moment the phone was pulled out, she quickly snatched his phone and shook her head, “Gong Tianhao, I don’t want your wealth. I believe in you now. I believe in your sincere and passionate feelings for me.”
Gong Tianhao became a little worried and said, “No. What if one day, you question my feelings again? So, I think I’d better transfer these things to your name. I’m more at ease. Come, Yu ‘Er, give me the phone.”
Xiao Lingyu’s eyes were filled with tears as if she was crying silently. She shook her head and said, “Tianhao, I was wrong. If a man’s heart is going to change, regardless of whether he is rich or not, it is still going to happen.
“But if a man really loves a woman, no matter how much temptation there is outside, he will be able to withstand it. In his heart, he only loves the person he loves.
“Now, I’ve thought it through. Actually, I shouldn’t have doubted your feelings for me.
“I am just a village girl. But you are the richest man in the county. I’m sure you’ve seen women more beautiful than me.
“In terms of wealth, that’s just crazy. In front of your huge mountain of gold, my wealth is just a grain of sand.
“Therefore, other than true love, I really can’t think of a reason why you’d want to marry me. Right, Gong Tianhao?”
Hearing Xiao Lingyu’s words, the huge rock in Gong Tianhao’s heart finally fell.
But then…
Gong Tianhao asked, “So, Yu ‘Er, what you’re saying is that you’re willing to continue our relationship on the premise of marriage?” When Gong Tianhao asked this question, his heart was nervous and excited.
Xiao Lingyu covered her mouth and shed tears. She was very touched as she nodded and replied, “Yes. I am willing to continue this relationship.”
Gong Tianhao added, “A relationship for the sake of marriage.”
Xiao Lingyu, “…” Naturally.
Since Xiao Lingyu was silent, Gong Tianhao became anxious. He asked, “Yu ‘Er, why didn’t you say anything? Are you playing with me
le
again?”
“What playing?” Xiao Lingyu was confused.
“If you just want to be my girlfriend and not my wife, then you’re playing with my feelings.” Gong Tianhao said righteously, “Xiao Lingyu, you have a history of doing this, so I can’t help but be careful.” Xiao Lingyu rolled her eyes helplessly and wiped the tears. She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “This time, I’ve thought it through. I’m in a relationship with you for the purpose of getting married.”
Xiao Lingyu paused for a moment and asked suspiciously, “Or don’t you want to marry me anymore?” Gong Tianhao quivered and said, “Of course not.”
The two of them had a heart-to-heart talk and finally revealed Xiao Lingyu’s true feelings. Gong Tianhao was really excited. He couldn’t control himself and pulled Xiao Lingyu into his arms again.
He leaned his head on her shoulder and said affectionately, “That’s great, Yu ‘Er. This moment is really blissful.”
At this moment, even such a powerful man could not help but shed tears. They were tears of happiness.
His relationship with Xiao Lingyu had gone through a lot. Sometimes, he could not see much hope for this relationship. It even made him feel despair.
However, he was very happy now.
He would always be with Xiao Lingyu for a long time and would definitely not disappoint this relationship. He would make sure that the things Xiao Lingyu worried about would not happen.
Gong Tianhao’s tears dripped onto Xiao Lingyu’s back, causing Xiao Lingyu’s entire body to tremble.
Gong Tianhao was such a powerful and domineering man, but at this moment, because of her response, he was extremely moved.
Xiao Lingyu could not help but reach out to pat his back and say very sincerely, “Gong Tianhao, if you don’t leave, I won’t abandon you! We’ll be a pair for the rest of our lives!”
After Gong Tianhao heard Xiao Lingyu’s words, his eyes deepened, and he said very sincerely, “Of course. I will never leave you. We’ll be together forever.”
Everyone who was listening outside was very touched.
Especially the few women from the Xiao family, they all shed tears.
They really didn’t expect Gong Tianhao’s feelings for Xiao Lingyu to be so sincere and passionate. There were no impurities in it. This was the love of an ordinary man.
Old Master Gong was completely relieved.
The two youngsters had a heart-to-heart. Both of them were in love and loved each other. It was just that Xiao Lingyu didn’t feel confident enough due to Gong Tianhao’s identity. Now that everything was out in the open, the misunderstanding and conflict between them had finally been resolved.
He could now wait in peace and embrace his great-grandson. It seemed that Situ Xing’s method was really effective. He would have to praise him properly later.
“Wait. This is not right.” At this moment, Xiao Lingyun suddenly exclaimed loudly, “Isn’t Brother Tianhao supposed to have a fever of 41 degrees? Shouldn’t he be unconscious? Why is he having such a deep confession with Sis?”
The Xiao family immediately reacted to Xiao Lingyun’s reminder.
That’s right. Gong Tianhao was supposed to have a fever. Why was his train of thought so clear? This was completely illogical. Therefore, the only reason was that Gong Tianhao was faking his illness.
At the thought of this, the touched expression on Mother Xiao’s face immediately disappeared. Her face was ashen, and her killing intent surged. It was obvious that she was about to fly into a rage.
Old Master Gong immediately gave Xiao Wang, who was blocking the door, a look. Xiao Wang understood immediately. He moved away.
Mother Xiao raised her leg and kicked the door open.
Then, when she saw the two young men hugging each other in the room, she immediately shouted, “Gong Tianhao!”
This earth-shattering roar immediately woke the two of them up.
Xiao Lingyu cried out in surprise, “Mom! Why are you here?”
When Gong Tianhao saw the murderous look on Mother Xiao’s face, he did not react at all. Then, he called out in a daze, “Auntie!”
Then, it came to him what had happened. However, it was too late already.
Mother Xiao put on a fake smile and revealed a sinister expression. She gritted her teeth and asked, “Gong Tianhao, didn’t you have a high fever of 41 degrees? But you don’t like you have any fever to me?”
After being reminded by Mother Xiao, Xiao Lingyu, who had been pregnant, immediately reacted.
She said worriedly, “Yes, Tianhao, didn’t you have a high fever of 41 degrees? Quickly lie down and take some medicine. Otherwise, if you keep burning like this, your brain will definitely burn out.”
The Xiao family, “…”
Maybe the person with the fever was not Gong Tianhao but Xiao Lingyu…
