Abstinence Pei, don't be too sweet when chasing your wife

The next day, Gu Fanxing was working on her work when her phone on her desk suddenly rang, breaking the silence. She glanced at the unfamiliar number and, after a moment's hesitation, pressed the answer button.

"Hello, who is this?" Gu Fanxing asked politely, his voice carrying the gentleness and aloofness typical of people in the workplace.

"Fanxing, it's me, your uncle Gu Huaiyuan." The voice coming from the other end of the phone was like a layer of sticky honey, so sweet that it was sickening, but it made people feel cold for no reason.

Gu Fanxing's hand holding the phone tightened instantly, and an uncontrollable disgust suddenly surged in his heart.

She had always had a distant relationship with her uncle's family, and after her rebirth, they were even closer. When Gu Huaiyuan called, she had a bad feeling.

"Uncle, why did you call me suddenly?" Gu Fanxing tried his best to keep his tone calm, but his brows were unconsciously twisted into the shape of a "川" character.

"Oh, my dear niece, uncle is thinking about you."

Gu Huaiyuan laughed dryly twice, and the laughter was particularly harsh in the silent office.

"You know, Qingyue is a naive girl. She made some mistakes a while ago and got you into big trouble. She's regretting it now.

Just for your uncle's sake, can you please forgive her this time?"

As he spoke, he sighed hypocritically, and his pretentiousness made it seem as if he was the one who had suffered a great injustice.

When Gu Fanxing heard this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Gu Qingyue's malicious revenge on her caused such a big uproar on the Internet, causing her to endure countless insults and slanders, and her work and life were greatly affected. Now she wants to write off everything with a light sentence "I know I was wrong", how can it be so easy?

Memories came flooding back like a tide. In her previous life, Jiang Chengjun had coaxed her with sweet words, deceived her trust, and dragged her life into the abyss step by step.

At that time, she was deeply distressed and hoped that her family would help her. But what about Gu Huaiyuan? Not only did he turn a blind eye to her plight, he also actively colluded with Jiang Chengjun to plot against her family property.

"Uncle, I understand your feelings as a father, but Qingyue is already an adult." Gu Fanxing said calmly, her tone neither humble nor arrogant. "She should be aware of the consequences of her actions. Since she did something wrong, she must take the corresponding responsibility for her actions. Otherwise, if she doesn't learn her lesson, it will cause greater trouble in the future."

Gu Fanxing frowned slightly, his eyes revealing unquestionable determination.

"Fanxing, you are being too polite." Gu Huaiyuan's voice immediately rose in pitch, with a hint of urgency, and the sharp tone seemed to break through the receiver of the phone.

"We're all family, why take it so seriously? Qingyue was just momentarily possessed by a ghost. Be more magnanimous and let this matter go.

If you don't forgive her, people will think there's discord within our Gu family, which is so unpleasant." As he spoke, he paced back and forth in the room, thinking about how to convince Gu Fanxing.

"Uncle, I'm not targeting Qingyue." Gu Fanxing explained patiently, "If I forgive her easily this time and don't let her learn the lesson she deserves, she might do it again in the future, which would be bad for her and everyone else. This is not what I want to see.

Besides, past experiences have taught me that if I indulge in some mistakes, the price I can't afford is too high." Gu Fanxing's voice was slightly heavy, and he deliberately emphasized the word "past", and a trace of pain and determination flashed in his eyes.

"Hmph, you sound nice."

Gu Huaiyuan snorted coldly, and the hypocrisy in his voice disappeared instantly, replaced by a full sense of viciousness.

"In the final analysis, you just want to embarrass our family. Don't you think about what good it will do you if you continue to make trouble like this?"

He stopped and a hint of resentment flashed in his eyes.

Seeing that he was not going to give in, Gu Huaiyuan lowered his voice slightly, with a hint of threat: "Fanxing, just think of it as doing your uncle a favor. Your uncle has never asked you for anything before. If you let Qingyue go this time, your uncle will remember your kindness in his heart. If you have any difficulties in the future, your uncle will definitely help you."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a barely perceptible sneer appeared on his face, as if to say that he didn't believe that Gu Fanxing would not surrender.

"Uncle, this isn't a question of helping or not." Gu Fanxing shook his head helplessly, "This is a matter of principle. If I give up pursuing the matter today because of your request, how will I face myself in the future? How will I face those who believed in me? I've suffered so much and lost so much because of my credulity. This time, I won't make the same mistake again."

Gu Fanxing's eyes became firm, and her thoughts returned to the tragic experience of her previous life.

At that time, she was isolated and helpless, and everyone around her was taking advantage of her misfortune. The despair and helplessness left a deep impression on her.

Now, she must never let herself get into that situation again.

Gu Huaiyuan was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, there was a hint of viciousness in his voice, and he almost squeezed the words out from between his teeth: "Fanxing, don't be too extreme in some things.

You have to understand that the Gu family's network of relationships is complex. If you insist on suing Qingyue, you can't guarantee that someone will try to trip you up at any time."

He gripped the phone tightly, veins bulging on his hands, and the ferocity on his face contrasted sharply with the feigned concern he expressed on the phone.

"Uncle, are you threatening me?" Gu Fanxing's voice also turned cold. "I respect you as an elder, but that doesn't mean I have to be weak without any bottom line. I will not compromise on this matter."

Gu Fanxing responded fearlessly, the resentment that had been pent up in her heart finally erupting at this moment. She sat up straight, her eyes revealing an unflinching courage.

"Threat? How could that be?" Gu Huaiyuan immediately put on a fake smile. "Uncle is doing this for your own good. Think about it, your father definitely doesn't want to see you sisters quarreling like this. Family harmony is what he values most. Aren't you going against his wishes by doing this?"

When mentioning his father, Gu Fanxing felt a slight pain in his heart.

Her father, Gu Changan, had always been the person she respected the most. He was honest and kind, and he attached great importance to his family. But Gu Huaiyuan was using his father to pressure her, which made her feel very unhappy.

"Uncle, Dad values family harmony, but he values right and wrong even more." Gu Fanxing couldn't help but retort, "If he knew Qingyue had done something that hurt his compatriots, he would also support me in defending my rights."

Gu Fanxing's eyes were slightly red, but her tone was unusually firm.

"Why are you so stubborn?" Gu Huaiyuan's tone was a little angry, almost roaring, "Do you have to make our family's ugly deeds known to everyone?" He slammed his fist on the table, shaking everything on the table to fall off.

"Uncle, I respect my father and the reputation of our Gu family. But precisely because of this, I cannot condone Qingyue's evil deeds. If there is no price to pay for doing wrong, who will abide by morality and laws in the future?" Gu Fanxing said earnestly.

"You...you are totally unreasonable!" Gu Huaiyuan finally couldn't help but explode, "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have grown wings. If you continue to be so stubborn, don't blame your uncle for being rude."

He was so angry that his face turned red, the veins on his forehead were throbbing, and then he hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Fanxing leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes, feeling a mixture of emotions. Those painful memories made her more determined in her choice, and she would never let Gu Huaiyuan get what he wanted.

Gu Fanxing opened his eyes, a determined look in his eyes.

She picked up the documents on the table again and got back to work.

She knew that with Gu Huaiyuan's character of not giving up until he achieved his goal, things might not be over yet. She had to stay vigilant at all times and face unknown challenges.
