After divorcing the mute girl, President Gu knelt down and begged for reconciliation.

Chapter 170 Introducing Her to People
Gu Xijue stood there looking at her, a slight smile playing on his lips: "Regretting coming?"

So many people came today, and he has never brought her to any private gatherings.

He did feel ashamed before, but this time he seemed to have less of that feeling.

--No.

She gestured a couple of times, while Gu Xijue's dark eyes remained fixed on her: "I will bring you out to meet people often in the future. This kind of situation will happen many more times in the future."

He had already decided to bring the woman in front of him into his own world.

But his world wasn't a paradise of birdsong and fragrant flowers; it was more of a place where people were devoured without a trace.

These guys are used to fawning on the powerful and belittling the weak. When Song Jin'an heard what he said, she paused slightly, her beautiful eyes fixed on the man in front of her.

—Are you deliberately trying to embarrass me?

Hearing her say that, Gu Xijue almost laughed: "Haven't you always wanted to squeeze into my world? Now I'm giving you this chance, what, you're not willing anymore?"

He really felt that the woman in front of him wanted everything.

"The respect that comes with high society is not something I can give you; it is something you must earn through your own wisdom and strength."

"I've given you this ticket for free; the rest is up to you."

The man's voice was deep, and he had his own thoughts in mind, but he was waiting for Song Jin'an's answer.

—Is this tone of yours, Gu Xijue, a gesture of charity towards me?

Song Jin'an was truly disgusted by his condescending tone, and looked up at the man in front of her.

“I didn’t,” Gu Xijue denied, then continued, “It’s just the law of survival.”

"Because of you, Gu Hetang has been ostracized and treated unfairly, so even for her sake, you should cheer up and strive to be a qualified Mrs. Gu."

After Gu Xijue finished speaking, Song Jin'an frowned and looked at the indifferent man in front of her.

—Does your statement imply that you condone this bullying behavior in your circle?
What makes someone a qualified Mrs. Gu? Just because she can't speak well and doesn't have a degree, does that mean she's unqualified in this circle?

He was helping her find a school to study at the other day, just because he felt he was "unworthy of his position"?
She just stood up to seek justice for herself, simply because she occupies the position of Mrs. Gu and is being bullied by others. The Gu family's face has been severely slapped, is that right?

Song Jin'an suddenly realized that he really found him disgusting.

His chest heaved violently as he awaited Gu Xijue's answer.

The man looked at her and frowned slightly: "You're getting stuck on this again."

He picked up a skewer of lamb and stuffed it directly into her mouth: "Eat your fill and stop overthinking."

As far as Gu Xijue was concerned, everything he said and did was for Song Jin'an's benefit, and he had done nothing wrong.

But I don't know why she felt so disgusted.

Song Jin'an took the lamb skewers and ate a few bites. Gu Hetang noticed that her parents had forgotten about her while eating, so she quickly ran over, wanting to eat too.

However, the food she was eating had been seasoned, and it would be a bit spicy for the child. But Gu Xijue specially asked the chef to grill a skewer of the original flavor and handed it to Gu Hetang.

"Thank you dad."

Gu Hetang ate while talking, and Gu Xijue's lips curled up slightly. This was his little darling.

He grew to like her more and more, even though he didn't feel like a father at first, and she wasn't the child he had hoped for.

But now, I like it more and more.

After they had almost finished eating, the group thought about going fishing at sea, since the sun had already set. Fishing at sea wouldn't be too hot, and they could just carry the fish they caught home.

Some people stayed at the manor to continue eating and drinking, while others went fishing at sea.

Gu Xijue and Song Jin'an took the child onto a boat. When the boat arrived at the designated sea fishing spot, Song Jin'an felt the vastness of the ocean.

She felt a sense of exhilaration, as if the world was vast and boundless. It was her first time at sea, so she couldn't resist taking several photos of the sunset with her phone.

The photo showed the back of Gu Hetang's head, and the composition was excellent. She uploaded it directly to social media.

The sea breeze felt wonderful on Song Jin'an's face. Gu Xijue, who was tidying up his fishing gear, glanced at her but didn't say anything.

"Mom, you're beautiful!"

Gu Hetang pointed to the setting sun in the sky. Her little legs still wanted to run towards the boat, but Gu Xijue held the child back and put her in her arms: "We are at sea, so keep a close eye on her."

Song Jin'an: "..."

After he put the fishing rod away, he hugged Gu Hetang in his arms.

He kept making Gu Hetang laugh.

Sitting in the back, Song Jin'an looked at the father and daughter with something indescribable in her eyes.

Gu Xijue turned around and looked at her in a daze, his voice deep: "If you feel tired, go inside and rest for a while."

There is also a small cabin in the middle of the boat with a simple, rather small bed.

Song Jin'an shook her head, indicating that she didn't need it, while Gu Xijue looked at her and said, "If you're not going to rest, come sit down and chat with me."

She sat down, but her gaze remained fixed on the distance. Just as she was completely lost in thought, she suddenly heard Gu Xijue's voice.

"Didn't you want to go to school? I've already found a school for you, the adult education program at Ocean University."

Gu Xijue spoke up, explaining that this school was also selected with Wei Zhou's help, and it was the most suitable school for Song Jin'an to attend.

Moreover, the principal initially disagreed, feeling that Song Jin'an wouldn't be able to keep up, and that this behavior was indeed buying and selling degrees. Although adult classes are non-full-time degrees, the meticulous principal felt that Song Jin'an definitely couldn't graduate in two years, so he refused.

However, Gu Xijue had the financial means to donate a library building directly to Haida University.

Song Jin'an looked at him. Was he really going to let her go to school?
Why did you suddenly make me go back to school? You weren't like this before.

She had previously looked for an adult class, but he deliberately pressured her to cancel it.

Why is she being asked to go again? Song Jin'an didn't understand.

A dark glint flashed in Gu Xijue's eyes, but it was too quick to catch: "Do you think the person you found is reliable?"

Can you really learn something from schools and classmates that aren't selected?

After he finished speaking, he smiled sarcastically and gave her a comprehensive learning plan.

Holding Gu Hetang's little hand, Gu Xijue continued, "You will study in China for two years and then I will send you abroad to study for a full-time master's degree for two years after you graduate."

He is already making plans for her studies.

Song Jin'an glanced at him, but his face showed no extra expression, and she couldn't discern anything from it.

She would be really happy to be able to go to school; she has always wanted to go to school since she was little.

She just hadn't had the chance before, but now that the opportunity was right in front of her, she didn't know why, but she started to take it seriously.

—I just don't understand why you've changed.
