However, Gu Man wanted him to leave completely. But in her heart, she felt that she probably could not do it.

A relationship of more than ten years was not something that could be broken off just like that.

“Miss Gu, your words are a little serious. What bad omen can make my mother insist on leaving my father?”

Zhen Rong’s tightly furrowed brows were enough to squeeze an ant to death.

When Gu Man heard this, her light gaze swept across his face. “Since the two of you don’t believe me, pretend I didn’t say anything.”

Gu Man did not have to have this cultivation. After all, she already had the meteorite. Since the two of them did not believe it no matter what, she did not continue to waste time here.

Gu Man was no longer in the mood to continue eating. Just as she was about to find an excuse to leave, the woman seemed to have read her mind and quickly stopped her. “Miss Gu, Zhen Rong is just too anxious. After all, the two of us have always been very loving in front of him, so he questioned your words.”

Gu Man looked at the woman’s hand on her wrist and did not have much of an expression. She only nodded to show that she understood.

The woman looked at Gu Man’s gaze, but her heart was beating exceptionally fast. She had a faint feeling that she would definitely regret letting Gu Man go this time.

It was this feeling that made her stop Gu Man when she was about to leave.

“Mom, are you really planning to divorce Dad?”

Zhen Rong’s face was filled with reluctance. In his heart, the two of them had always been in love and nothing had happened. Why did they have to get a divorce because of an unverified prophecy?

Not to mention that a divorce might create a gap between the two of them. It might even affect their shares.

The woman suddenly let go of Gu Man’s arm, but she was not planning to let her go. Instead, she sighed.

“Miss Gu, it’s mainly because of my special identity. Do you know the Zhou family, one of the four great families?”

She suddenly heard the Zhou family’s Gu Man raise her eyebrows. “I know.”

Not only did she know that she had fought with Elder Zhou some time ago, but could it be that the woman in front of her was from the Zhou family?

“My identity was very special. When I married Zhen Hua, it was my stubborn decision. Everyone in the family was very against it because the Zhen family was only a small family at that time. They could not be compared to the Zhou family at all. However, my attitude was firm at that time and 1 even chose to give up my identity as a member of the Zhou family.”

Gu Man nodded in understanding. No wonder when she checked just now, she realized that a woman’s relationship journey was especially bumpy. However, if the woman knew the truth, she would probably go crazy.

After all, he was the man she got rid of her identity as a member of the Zhou family to choose. Who knew that he was actually a rotten person?

When the woman recalled what happened back then, there was not much emotion on her face. Even now, she did not regret it.

“Now, the Zhen family is gradually getting better. 1 know that the Zhou family helped them, but my father never said that he wanted to acknowledge me as his daughter. I’ve never suffered in the Zhen family, so I haven’t contacted my father. However, I know that my father contributed a lot to the Zhen family’s success.”

If the two of them divorced at this time, she would become a laughingstock. And without the Zhou family’s help, the Zhen family’s shares would plummet.

The woman still had Zhen Hua in her heart, so she didn’t want to see such a scene.

Moreover, she could not become the laughingstock of others. Zhen Hua had protected her too well all these years, so she rarely appeared in front of outsiders. Naturally, she did not hear those rumors and was happy.

“I don’t want to become the laughingstock of others, nor do 1 want the Zhen family to decline.”

Because if she had become a laughingstock, the Zhou family would also become a laughingstock. It would even severely affect the Zhou family’s shares. How could her father, who had always been arrogant, accept such a situation?

After so many years, the woman had already felt guilty towards her father, and she did not want to cause trouble.

With both sides restraining her, it seemed like she was the key and her status would definitely increase. However, in reality, she had become the most inferior one.

Perhaps this was one of the reasons why Zhen Hua had been pretending every day for so many years.. The Zhen family needed the help of the Zhou family!
