If you don't tell me, I'll go look it up myself.

  Li Guomin is not an exceptionally outstanding man, but he looks pleasant, wearing a white suit with a small flower on his left chest.

  He saw Gu Mo, his eyes lit up, and he punched him on the shoulder, "I was worried that you, a busy person, wouldn't come today"

  "How could this be? You're getting married, and you have to put everything on hold." In the past, at university, he, Li Guomin, and An Dongjian, Er Fan were all in the same dormitory. When they got into trouble, they did it together; when they skipped class, they also snuck out together.

  "Ah, it's already hard for classmates to gather again, so I thought I'd take this opportunity of getting married to invite old classmates and friends to get together." Li Guomin said with emotion, seeing Su Mian standing beside Gu Mo, he curiously asked, "Who is this?"

  Gu Mo smiled and put his hand on her shoulder, "My wife, Si Mian"

  "Alright you, getting married without even telling me!" Li Guomin pretended to be angry.

  "She was young, so we had a low-key wedding, just a few relatives sitting together for a meal"

  Li Guomin took a closer look at Si Mian and smiled foolishly, "You have a good eye for things."

  Hearing him praise himself like this, Si Mian couldn't help but feel happy and smiled slightly, "Congratulations to you"

  Li Guomin patted Gu Mo's shoulder and said, "Alright, alright, you're all family today. There are a lot of people here, so if I don't take good care of you, don't blame me."

  "You go ahead with your busy schedule." Gu Mo knew how hectic getting married could be and was very understanding.

  Today, many of his university classmates came, and Gu Mo was a legendary figure in college, so many people have a deep impression of him, but few know that he is now the mayor of Nanhua City.

  So several people gathered around, chatting and laughing together.

  "Gu Mo, how's it going over there?"

  He smiled and said lightly, "Government work"

  "That's a good job, an iron rice bowl, unlike us doing small business, worrying about losing money every day, our hair is all turned white with worry"

  "That's very free, if you want to start a business, just start it, if you don't want to start a business, then just rest at home"

  "It's just this good, but, you know, to make a living, there's no way to rest at home every day"

  Si Mian was unable to join in their conversation, sitting in his seat, playing with his phone.

  Although he was still talking to them, Gu Mo was always paying attention to her every move. The people who came over were all strangers to her. He had originally wanted to chat with her for a bit, but since these people had come over, he couldn't just ignore them and needed to exchange a few pleasantries.

  Someone with sharp eyes spotted Anton entering and loudly said, "Look, Anton is here too. He was quite arrogant back then, but I heard he's a police officer now."

  "Anton, over here!" Everyone waved at him.

  Si Mian also raised his head and looked over, only to see An Dongjian and the people who followed him, unexpectedly Qiao Si had also come.

  An Dongjian walked over and saw Si Mian sitting there, looking quite obedient, which was somewhat unexpected. He hadn't thought that Gu Mo would bring her along too. He smiled at her and nodded slightly.

  It wasn't until later, through their conversation, that Si Mian found out that Qiao Si was invited by the bride's side, seemingly as a friend or something, and they had a pretty good relationship.

  After dinner, those with good relationships all went to make a scene for the newlyweds. They just said hello and left without joining in the fun.

  Qiao Si, An Dong Jian, Gu Mo, the three of them chatted as they walked, with Si Wen walking to Gu Mo's right side, keeping his own pace, enjoying himself.

  As expected, there is a generation gap; she doesn't know many of the topics they talk about.

  "Hey, Jo, do you remember? In the past when we three had supper together, we liked to walk for a while before taking a taxi back. You said it was good for digestion and our health."

  "Remember," said Jo, nodding her head.

  "Do you still remember?" Antong Jian asked Gu Mo again.

  He lowered his eyelids and glanced at Si Mian with a sidelong glance, saying, "I don't remember very well."

  "How could you have forgotten?" Anton said relentlessly. "You used to be like this with Jo too, and I'd laugh at you guys..."

  "Dong Jian, you've had too much to drink," Qiao Si said with a frown, glancing at Si Mian, afraid she would misunderstand.

  Anton was stubborn. "I didn't drink much, I'm very sober. Last time we had dinner together, you guys still walked a distance together, how long ago was that? You don't even remember?"

  Jiao Si's face was awkward, and she pulled An Dongjian's hand, indicating that he should stop talking.

  Si Mian raised his head and glanced at Qiao Si and Gu Mo, last time he said he was working overtime, but there was a smell of wine on his body, it turned out that he had dinner with them. From what Antong Jian said, after dinner, the two of them were alone together for a while.

  She immediately felt uncomfortable in her heart. Although she had said that she was willing to believe in his and Qiao Si's innocence, in the world of emotions, there could be no impurities, not even a single grain of sand.

  Just thinking about Mr. Gu having met with Qiao Si alone, spoken words, chatted, and talked about the past, her heart felt suffocated.

  As a woman, Qiao Si naturally discovered that Si Mian was a bit awkward. Afraid that An Dongjian would say something he shouldn't, she said at the crossroads, "Gu Mo, it's late, you take Si Mian back to rest first."

  "En", Gu Mo nodded and had no opinion, then took her to the parking place.

  Watching them walk away, Joanne angrily asked, "Anton, what did you mean today? You knew we were all married, didn't the words you just said make sense? Didn't you see Suwen was still there?"

  She was really going to be driven mad by him.

  "Get married? Are you really married or fake married?" Antong Jian asked back, "After you returned, both Gu Mo and I suspected that you didn't get married at all, so I secretly checked on you, and your information shows that you are single."

  Jiao Si was taken aback for a moment, then unnaturally flicked the hair by her ear, "You're wrong, I'm married"

  "Don't forget what I am," Anton said, staring straight at her. "Why did you deceive Gu Mo into thinking you were getting married back then?"

  "I don't want to say," Jiao Si spat out a mouthful of air, "and you're not allowed to ask again. I haven't gotten married, and you're not allowed to tell Gu Mo, or else we won't even be able to be friends."

  An Dongjian shrugged, "Sooner or later it will be investigated, you know how stubborn I am, if there's something I want to know, I'll definitely find out"

  Qiao Si really lost to him, so many years of friends, naturally know his temperament.

  She said lightly, but An Dongjian's face turned uglier the more he listened. "Uncle Gu couldn't have done it. He liked you so much back then, we could all see it, and he was very satisfied with you as his daughter-in-law."

  "I used to think so too, I thought I had won Gu Qi's approval and was very happy in my heart, even planning for the future with Gu Mo, but plans can't keep up with changes" Qiao Si sighed, "Do you know how my dad's leg became lame?"

  An Dongjian furrowed his brow, "Isn't it an accident?"

  "On the surface, it was an accident, but in reality, it wasn't. It was Gu Qi who had someone hit my dad," she said, somewhat annoyed. "Ke Xin still doesn't know about this, don't mention it, I don't want her to hate Gu Qi and also hate Gu Xi."

  Anton couldn't accept this news for a while. Although Gu Qi looked serious, in his heart, Gu Qi had always been a kind old man.

  "It's not just that, at first he even used Ke Xin's going abroad to threaten me, and even told me that if Gu Mo insisted on being with me, he would cut off his relationship with Gu Mo and leave him with nothing."

  "Even if you don't agree with me dating Gu Mo, there's no need to be so extreme about it." Andon Jian couldn't understand.

  "I don't know, and I also don't know why he's being so extreme," Jiao Si shook her head. "This time I came back, it wasn't to rekindle old feelings with Gu Mo, I just wanted to come back and see my parents, they're getting older, I just want to be by their side and show them filial piety, so don't go making wild connections."

  "But Gu Mo has never forgotten you, all these years, and I believe that now, you still love Gu Mo too"

  "What's the point, I don't want anything unexpected to happen to my parents and Ke Xin again. My dad's leg hurts whenever it rains, my mom is heartbroken but can only helplessly give him massages to alleviate his pain."

  "Are you really going to let Gu Mo slip away like this? If only you tell him everything, I believe he'll stand by your side." It's clear that the two people deeply love each other, so why has it ended up like this.

  "Tell him to betray his parents? Watch him struggle with the decision? Even if Gu Qi is wrong, they are still his parents. What can he do, personally send Gu Qi to prison? Besides, he's already married and Si Mian is innocent too. I don't want to hurt her because of my own affairs, do you understand?"

  "Although Gu Mo married her, his heart is no longer with her. Do you think this is fair to her? This treatment is unfair to all three people, and you are not Gu Mo, how do you know what he thinks?"

  Andong Jian didn't want Siwei to get hurt either, but as a friend, he also stood up for Qiao Ci.

  "Look, I don't want to discuss this with you anymore. Just pretend you don't know anything about my business and stay out of it. If not, I'll move away immediately and never come back."

  "Suit yourselves," Anton sighed.

  But after they parted ways, Anton sent a text message to Gu Mo, telling him that Qiao Si was not married.

  I hope this will help the couple a bit.

  ….

  A message came in, Gu Mo picked it up and took a look, the car suddenly stopped, his hand gripping the steering wheel tightened, with veins bulging out.

  Si Mian looked at him strangely, seeing that he was staring tightly at his phone. Just as she was about to speak, she saw him put down the phone and continue driving.

  In the car, Gu Mo's expression was very serious, driving without saying a word. Si Mian sat quietly, stealing a glance at him, her brow furrowed, wondering what he was thinking. She didn't dare ask, only secretly guessing in her heart if it had something to do with Qiao Si.

  But it should be, since Qiao Si came back, Gu Mo's emotions have become somewhat abnormal.

  Si Mian felt a bit lost and didn't know what to do, feeling somewhat sad in her heart.

  PS: Everyone calm down, Gu Da Shu is absolutely not a trashy man!
