Lu Zhiyuan paid no attention to Li Jiang and seemed to have made a decision. He grabbed the door and left.

Gu Ci remained silent throughout the journey, and Gu Ziyu's eyes were filled with a hint of gloom. People who upset their mothers were always disliked in this world.

"Mom, why did Dad reject you?" Gu Ziyu asked.

Gu Ci tapped the steering wheel gently with her fingers. "Dad is an athlete who needs to train regularly. Besides... he was 25 when he fell in love with Mom. Now he's only 20 and we don't know each other well. It's normal for him to refuse."

Gu Ziyu was smart. It would be foolish to deceive him, so she could only tell the truth while still maintaining Lu Zhiyuan's image.

"Uncle Li Jiang said that Dad has liked Mom for many years. If he's secretly in love with you now, why would he refuse?"

"Secret love is a self-indulgence. Maybe Dad's pride is too strong and he doesn't want us to know," replied Gu Ci.
