Chapter 1205 Why Didn’t You Complain To Me (3)
Complain!
Jiang Xun’s heart warmed when he heard this word!
He was an orphan and had no parents or other relatives. He still had to take care of his younger brother. He learnt long ago that he had to depend on himself for everything.
After so many years, he had grown up and was used to bearing all his burdens alone. He had not expected Mo Beihan to tell him that he could complain if he was bullied!
Jiang Xun’s heart was full, and he smiled gently. “Young Uncle, don’t worry. I’m a grown-up. How much can they bully me? I’m well aware of their motives, and I don’t take them to heart. But… thank you, Young Uncle!”
Thank you for protecting me even when I’m already an adult!
Mo Beihan paused. “Don’t you feel upset? Were you too embarrassed to ask for our help?”
Jiang Xun laughed. His laugh was very frank. “Young Uncle, I’m not stupid. I know what their motive is.
“Everyone is jealous of the mighty Gu family and Mo family. Ting Ting is such an outstanding girl and is the Gu family’s only granddaughter. Whoever marries her will be directly connected to the Gu and the Mo families. And I’m the fortunate one. Those people are wildly jealous of me! “Why do they keep making fun of me and mocking me? Isn’t it because they are jealous of what I have with Ting Ting? If they upset me or crush me and I break up with Ting Ting, wouldn’t they get their way? Of course, I won’t be so stupid!”
Mo Beihan was stunned. He had not expected Jiang Xun to say something like this.
Most men were chauvinists and were afraid that people would look down on them. They were most afraid that others would say they were hiding behind a woman’s skirts. Jiang Xun did not have to tell Mo Beihan what those playboys said to make fun of him. Mo Beihan could guess. But this boy had been so frank and had calmly thought through the matter. Not everyone was so open-minded and tolerant. Now even Mo Beihan admired the boy. No wonder he survived, even with so many younger brothers at such a young age, even though they were so poor when they lived in the countryside. This was no ordinary boy!
Mo Beihan patted Jiang Xun’s shoulder. “Not bad. You’re even more outstanding than I thought. No wonder that girl, Ting Ting, is so faithful to you. The Gu family knows about the issue with your family hierarchy, but cannot bear to force the two of you to break up.”
Jiang Xun smiled, “That’s right! All those young men from important families want Ting Ting. There are some problems with our positions in the family, but the Gu family did not stop me. I will treasure what I have. The more they make fun of me, the more it shows how jealous they are of me. I won’t fall for their trap!”
Mo Beihan guffawed. “Well said. That’s exactly the right way to think. Don’t be influenced by others!
“The Gu family dotes on its children. That’s why they can’t bear to force the two of you to break up. I imagine that, a few years ago, the Gu family still had its reservations but thought that, as Gu Fangting was still young, they could not be sure whether the two of you would still be together. That’s why they did not take on the role of the bad cop and allowed the two of you to be together.
“But so many years have passed, and the Gu family has never stopped you. That shows that they’ve acknowledged you. Because of you, they are willing to overlook the matter of family hierarchy.
“So! Better make your preparations. She’s been with you for so many years. It’s time you gave her a family of her own!”
Jiang Xun blushed a little and said, “Yes, Young Uncle. I… I’m already preparing. We’ll probably be getting married very soon!”
