Chapter 637: Chapter 127: Relying on Each Other to Survive

"What’s impossible? You should not be unaware that the way you became the largest shareholder was orchestrated. It was your father who had Uncle Liu transfer 10% of the shares to you, allowing you to manage the company. Otherwise, Xiao Jing would have been the largest shareholder of your subsidiary companies! And you wouldn’t have had the chance to sit in the chairman’s seat."

Jing Mingcheng’s face was cold, and he had lost all favor for Fu Qiuyi.

Even though they had to have some interactions on the surface, it was just a little bit.

Fu Qiuyi stood frozen, the process had been complicated, but in the end, the person he least wanted to be involved with was the one who had given him a push from behind.

It was Liu Dong who had introduced him to the internet industry, who had invested in him and helped him build his career.

Although he had only seen Liu Dong once, and the rest of their dealings had been handled by his secretary, he had to admit that a large part of his accomplishments were thanks to him.

When the company went public, he voluntarily gave up 10% of his shares to him and appointed him as the chairman.

He thought that this was just Liu Dong’s recognition of him.

Indeed, there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

His heart only remembered hatred and resentment.

Until this moment, when he realized that all of his hatred and resentment were a joke.

What could he say?

The sacrifices made by Jing Rui were for the Jing Family, for him, and for the child!

But he had lost his daughter for twenty years.

He had no face to stand here in self-righteousness.

"Jing Rui, I will return the 10% that belongs to you. I don’t need charity from others, especially people from the Jing Family," said Fu Qiuyi, turning around, his face pale and his expression agonized.

In the end, he was just an ordinary person who couldn’t see the heights she looked down from when she lowered her head, even if he held his head high.

Jing Rui bit her lip, feeling only sadness.

She never needed the money, and even now, he refused to admit that his success was related to the Jing Family.

"Fu Qiuyi, do you really understand a woman’s heart?" Jing Mingcheng said angrily.

If he had just said something softer, even if it wasn’t for old times’ sake, they could have gotten along amicably.

But he didn’t.

He just wanted to cut ties, his grudge against the Jing Family was still there.

What was Xiao Xi to do in the future?

Between the father on one side and the mother on the other.

Fu Qiuyi had just walked a few steps when he looked up and saw Gu Xiaoxi standing not far away from him.

He immediately froze!

Clearly, Jing Mingcheng and Jing Rui saw her too.

For a moment, everyone was silent, looking at each other tensely, and not a sound was made.

Jing Rui bit her lip, her vision blurred with tears.

Even she herself could hardly believe that Gu Xiaoxi was her daughter.

She had searched so hard for her daughter all these years, and yet she had no idea that she had always been by her side.

Now that she knew the truth, would she also resent her like Fu Qiuyi?

After all, she had left them when she was so young.

Gu Xiaoxi took a step forward, walking toward Fu Qiuyi, then passed by him and straight to Jing Rui.

With her approach, Jing Rui’s heart sank to the bottom.

She feared that her daughter didn’t want to recognize her.

She never dared to hope that her child could forgive her; she only wished to watch her happiness from afar.

But then, Gu Xiaoxi suddenly smiled radiantly, though tears were already streaming down her face, her mood was positive.

She extended her hand, tears rolling down her face, yet smiling, her tone heavy as she said, "If I hadn’t gone to the International Alliance, if I hadn’t met you. Perhaps, I would still hate you like before. But having walked the path you did and knowing you for so many years. Becoming friends with you, sharing life and death challenges. I know and understand what kind of person you are. Even if we weren’t mother and daughter, you’d still be my best friend. And even more so since you are the good mother I’ve always hoped for!"

That one word, "mother," made Jing Rui instantly break into tears, and all the tension in her heart turned into deep maternal love.

She reached out, embracing Gu Xiaoxi in return, stroking her head, only to realize that her daughter was now taller than her.

Gu Xiaoxi felt that she understood Jing Rui’s struggles better than anyone.

If what happened to Jing Rui had happened to her.

Even if her father hadn’t pressured her, she would have sacrificed her personal feelings for the lives of her family and the honor of her clan.

Only a soldier understands what it means to sacrifice oneself for justice.

And only she knew how tough it was for Jing Rui in the International Alliance.

The hardships she had endured were probably ten or twenty times her own.

Yet she always wore a cheerful expression, never complaining to anyone.

At this moment, Jing Rui’s throat was choked with emotion, the words she wanted to say stuck in her chest.

This was an outcome she had never anticipated.

Gu Xiaoxi hadn’t said a word, yet had already forgiven her.

This child was always more magnanimous than she imagined.

Fu Qiuyi stood there dumbfounded, saying nothing.

He simply didn’t understand why his daughter, without saying a word, had acknowledged her mother.

Yet after so many years, she hadn’t recognized him as her father.

He felt that this place was no longer appropriate for him.

Fu Qiuyi strode away and entered the banquet hall, where he called Dongfang Yanqing and his daughter to leave with him.

He should never have shown up at this wedding.

As he left the wedding venue, looking at Dongfang Yanqing and Fu Xin by his side, he suddenly understood.

It turned out that in Gu Xiaoxi’s world,

Jing Rui had been waiting for her all along.

And he had gone too far.

It wasn’t that Gu Xiaoxi didn’t want to recognize him, but that she didn’t want to disturb his life, to ruin his relationships.

It wasn’t that Gu Xiaoxi and Jing Rui had abandoned him.

It was he who had chosen to abandon them.

At this moment, he realized that he didn’t deserve to be Gu Xiaoxi’s father.

Even, he wasn’t worthy of Jing Rui’s past love, of marrying him in those brilliant years—a poor devil and a faithless man.

He prided himself on living a life aboveboard, free of regrets.

Looking back, he realized that although he was rich, his soul was impoverished.

Jing Rui had protected him quietly, despite his hatred for her, helping him rise to the top.

Gu Xiaoxi had chosen to give up a father’s love to complete his family.

And yet he had been blaming them all along!

How ridiculous...

On the way back, Fu Qiuyi took Dongfang Yanqing’s hand and then suddenly embraced her.

Dongfang Yanqing felt the loss and abnormality in his heart, and without a word, gently held him.

The two children both stayed silent and behaved.

Fu Qiuyi knew that some mistakes, once made, can never be undone.

And he could not make the same mistake again.

If Gu Xiaoxi was willing, he would try his best to make amends.

At the same time, he would treat those around him better.

That was a man’s duty.

...

Meanwhile, at the wedding venue, Quan Shaoqing found Gu Xiaoxi and Jing Rui in the garden.

When he heard that Jing Rui was indeed Gu Xiaoxi’s birth mother, he was absolutely stunned.

"Auntie, how come I didn’t know you were married before?" Quan Shaoqing exclaimed in shock.

"What are you calling ’auntie’ for? From now on, you should call me ’mom’. And, Shaoqing, you should call me ’uncle’", Jing Mingcheng said with a laugh from the side.

Now that the mother and daughter had recognized each other, all was well.

Quan Shaoqing immediately smiled and nodded, "Yes, mom! Let’s go to the banquet hall so I can toast to you! Thank you for giving birth to such a wonderful daughter."

Gu Xiaoxi was speechless; Quan Shaoqing was really laying it on thick.

"Better not. I’m happy enough that my daughter recognizes me. On such an important occasion today, having just recognized a father and then a mother, wouldn’t that be strange!" Jing Rui didn’t want to cause them any trouble.

She would have plenty of time to be with Gu Xiaoxi in the future.

Gu Xiaoxi hurriedly took Jing Rui’s hand, "Then you can’t leave. Come home with me tonight. I want to sleep with you."

"What!"

"What!"

Upon Gu Xiaoxi’s words, everyone was stunned into silence.

A newlywed father, and the daughter wants to sleep with her mother?

"Hahaha, Xiao Xi, stop teasing mom. Just knowing you have me in your heart is already a great gratitude. Mommy congratulates you and also wishes you happiness," Jing Rui said affectionately.

At the same time, she took Gu Xiaoxi’s hand and placed it in Quan Shaoqing’s palm, saying seriously, "Although I know you’ve been very good to her already, I hope you can be even better."

"Of course, my wife. I will definitely treat her well! Mom doesn’t need to worry," Quan Shaoqing said with a laugh.

He called her ’mom’ very naturally.

Jing Mingcheng felt like his emotions had been on a roller coaster today. Now, he could finally settle down.

This relationship would also bring the Jing Family and the Quan Family closer together.

"Hello, uncle!" Gu Xiaoxi also greeted him happily.

Afterward, the family went to the banquet hall, full of happiness.

At the entrance, Gu Xiaoxi looked back at the door.

She knew Fu Qiuyi had left, but she hadn’t stopped him.

She had always said she wouldn’t recognize her father.

But then, what was the difference between recognizing him or not.

Even if she did, he couldn’t give her a complete family. It would only make her relationship with the Fu Family more tense.

It was better to let go and live the life she wanted.

Fu Qiuyi had someone by his side; she didn’t need to worry about him.

But Jing Rui, like her, had been lonely for so many years, and now they could depend on each other.
