Chapter 260 The Crow Can't See Its Own Blackness
Meanwhile, Zhao Tian and Gu's mother went to the kitchen.
Seeing that Zhao Tian looked preoccupied, Gu's mother didn't rush to clear the dishes.
He pulled Zhao Tian to sit on one of the two small stools in the kitchen.
"Is there something you want to ask your aunt?" Gu's mother asked Zhao Tian with a loving expression.
Seeing that it was just her and Aunt Gu there, Zhao Tian didn't hesitate any longer and asked what was on her mind.
"Aunt Gu, I saw Song Zhiqing here today. Is she going to start a relationship with Brother Gu?" Zhao Tian didn't like beating around the bush and asked directly.
Upon hearing this, Gu's mother was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled.
Zhao Tian looked worried.
"No, Song Zhiqing did not want to date Zhendong, and Zhendong did not have that idea either."
"I heard Gu Nan and Niannian say that Song Zhiqing and Li Ergou are showing signs of developing a relationship, but they are not dating yet."
Gu's mother recalled that Su Niannian had gossiped with her before, and that when Gu Nan got married, Song Zhaodi and Li Ergou's relationship was like that of a bickering couple, which seemed like a promising romance.
So, I mentioned it to Zhao Tian.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tian finally felt much relieved.
After all, her fears hadn't come true, so she and Gu Zhendong still had a chance.
"Tian'er, actually I know a lot about your relationship with Zhendong," Gu's mother said, holding Zhao Tian's hand.
Zhao Tian didn't interrupt, but continued to listen to Gu's mother.
“Zhendong is divorced now and has a child. You are not married yet and are still a virgin. I think my Zhendong may not be good enough for you.”
Upon hearing Gu's mother's words, Zhao Tian quickly shook her head.
"To tell you the truth, I've liked Brother Gu for a very, very long time."
“I was too shy to express myself before, but Brother Gu is already married. I’ve always had a problem with this, I don’t want to marry someone I don’t like, so I never listened to my family and just married someone randomly.”
“It wasn’t until a year ago, when Brother Gu injured his leg and his wife ran away with the child, that I felt like my hope had returned.”
"I really want to try it, I don't want to miss out again," Zhao Tian said with a serious expression.
This left Gu's mother unsure how to continue her conversation.
"Aunt Gu, if Brother Gu and I had the chance to develop a relationship, would you agree?" Zhao Tian continued to ask Gu's mother.
Zhao Tian was someone Gu's mother had watched grow up since she was a child, but later the family moved to Beijing.
But one can tell a lot about a person's character from the age of three. Gu's mother naturally knew and understood Zhao Tian's temperament.
If Zhao Tian were to be with her eldest son, Gu's mother would naturally be willing.
But when it comes to matters of the heart, it has to be something that Gu Zhendong himself likes.
They are family-oriented and don't believe in arranged marriages.
At that time, Zhao Fengxia was someone Gu Zhendong himself had chosen and liked, which is why they got married.
Therefore, Gu's mother felt that whether she agreed or not was not important; the main thing was to see what her son chose.
“Zhendong just got divorced and his legs haven’t fully recovered yet, so I’m worried he might have some reservations.”
"If you two like each other and decide to spend your lives together, then of course I have no objection."
"I've watched you grow up. You're a good girl, and I like you a lot too. But whether you two can get together depends on your choices as young people."
“Zhendong is so much older than you, his leg is injured, he’s divorced and has a child. Do you really not mind?” Gu’s mother asked again.
Zhao Tian solemnly told Gu's mother that she did not mind.
Gu's mother patted Zhao Tian's hand.
"You two can make your decision. As Zhendong's mother, I have no objections and am willing to support you," Gu's mother said lovingly.
Zhao Tian nodded.
"Then let's tidy up here, and I'll go ask Brother Gu," Zhao Tian said, mustering her courage.
Although I know that Gu Zhendong might still not agree, what if he does?
Besides, even if Gu Zhendong disagrees now, there's always the future, isn't there?
Zhao Tian thought to herself that as long as she kept waiting, Gu Zhendong would eventually see her.
Everyone should fight for the person they love at least once in their life.
Zhao Tian and Gu's mother tidied up together in the kitchen.
Gu's mother thought that Zhao Tian was a really good girl, excellent in every way.
Especially after learning that Gu Zhendong's leg was completely ruined, she was still willing to stay with Gu Zhendong.
This is something that many girls cannot do.
Meanwhile, Gu Nan escorted Gu Zhendong back to his room.
Yangyang and Gu Ningning are playing in Gu's mother's room.
Gu Nan also wanted to talk to Gu Zhendong.
Gu Nan placed Gu Zhendong on the kang (a heated brick bed) and found him a comfortable position to sit in.
Then Gu Nan sat down on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed).
"What's wrong?" Gu Zhendong asked Gu Nan.
"You're asking me what's wrong? What are your thoughts on Zhao Tian's matter?" Gu Nan asked Gu Zhendong.
"Zhao Tian?"
"Stop playing dumb!!" Gu Nan glared at Gu Zhendong.
"Sigh, actually I wanted to handle this quietly," Gu Zhendong sighed, looking up at the ceiling and muttering to himself.
"You could see it too, right? Zhao Tian misunderstood that Song Zhiqing was here because of you, and then she..." Gu Nan didn't finish speaking before Gu Zhendong interrupted him.
"I understand, but I just got divorced and have a child, and my leg isn't fully healed." Gu Zhendong stopped pretending and spoke his true feelings.
“I feel that I am not good enough for Zhao Tian. She is still a virgin and has never been married. If she were to marry a disabled man with a child who has been married before, it would probably damage her reputation.”
"Besides, our family's current class status isn't good either, which will also implicate her."
Gu Zhendong really didn't want to hold Zhao Tian back, and he also felt that he was not good enough for Zhao Tian.
"Putting aside external factors, do you like Zhao Tian?" Gu Nan asked Gu Zhendong.
To be honest, Gu Nan has never been a gossipy person, and he rarely talks this much.
But seeing his elder brother stuck in his ways, Gu Nan also felt somewhat uncomfortable.
He wanted his older brother to also have his own happiness.
I can't stay single forever just because of Zhao Fengxia.
As for the things his older brother was worried about, Gu Nan didn't think they were anything serious.
Isn't it enough for two people to love each other?
Isn't that how it is between myself and my little girl?
At this moment, Gu Nan had already forgotten why he initially wanted to reject Su Niannian.
This is because... crows can only see that others are black, completely forgetting that they themselves are black.
Gu Zhendong fell silent.
He recalled the times he played with Zhao Tian when they were children, and the times he helped Zhao Tian when she was bullied.
