Pei Yu retorted unreasonably: "Isn't it because dad forced me to break off the relationship with him first?" It's obvious that I gave up first, but dad still blames Shangcheng Wang? "
"Okay Yu'er, do you really want to quarrel with your father like this over an outsider?" Mrs. Pei couldn't help but speak out to stop Pei Yu from continuing.
After hearing what Mrs. Pei said, Pei Yu bit her lip and sat back silently.
But at this time, Mr. Pei had no intention of ending the topic. He seemed to be still in a state of rage, and obviously could not accept his daughter contradicting him like this for an outsider.
"Yu'er, dad doesn't know what Gu Chengxuan said to you again, but dad will never allow you to be bewitched by him again. Dad will ask for permission to enter the palace tomorrow. Dad must deal with this matter-"
Before he finished speaking, Pei Yu expressionlessly interrupted Mr. Pei before he could finish what he said, "Dad, by the way, please also report the fact that I shamelessly ran to Prince Cheng's Mansion to find someone these days. I'll see the court then." Which side do you stand on?"
"Yu'er!"
"Isn't that true?"
"You are not allowed to spread the word!" Mr. Pei was so angry that his eyes were red.
Pei Yu said calmly: "It depends on what dad wants. If dad doesn't mess around, I won't mess around either."
"For him... you actually gave up your own reputation for Gu Chengxuan?"
Speaking of fame, Pei Yu felt a little ridiculous for a moment. She slowly raised her head again and her voice was still stable, "Dad, I just don't want the people I like to be unreasonably slandered because of me. Isn't this too much?"
"Do you think he cares about your little liking?"
"It's Gu Chengxuan's own business whether he cares or not. I don't have to respond to him before I dare to like him."
Pei Yu said and stood up.
She slowly lowered her eyes, remained silent for a while, and then whispered: "Dad... I don't want to do anything against my will anymore."
"Pei Yu! Do you know what you are talking about!" Mr. Pei was so angry that his fingers were trembling. He wanted to continue talking, but Mrs. Pei held his hand down.
Mrs. Pei raised her head, looked at Pei Yu, and asked, "Yu'er, what do you want to do?"
"Mom, I don't know either." Pei Yu lowered her head and pursed her lips. She was a little angry. She bit her lip with her teeth. Her voice sounded a little muffled and she said, "I just want to be serious." If I really like someone, if we are really destined to be destined to each other, then I will admit it."
She was quite stubborn, holding her sleeves with her fingers, and said with a bit of force, "I just want to like someone, is that okay, dad and mom?"
She didn't need him to promise her the rest of her life and marry her all at once. She didn't want anything, she just wanted to like Gu Chengxuan openly.
That's it, is that okay
Pei Yu waited for a long, long time, but did not get an answer from her parents.
But they didn't reject her out loud, as if they just responded with silence.
She saw the helplessness in her mother's eyes.
Her mother seemed to be telling her that she would regret it.
Pei Yu didn't know if she would regret it, but she knew that if she really bowed to her parents again, she would really regret it for the rest of her life.
However, she said it with confidence in front of her parents, as if if she said she liked Gu Chengxuan, Gu Chengxuan would like her again...
