Chapter 1436: The Blackened Good Girl (71)

 "Gege, who would've thought you were so versatile?"

Sitting in the office, Qiao Ge was helping Tang Guo process documents. He looked up and smiled. "I didn't know anything about this before, but if I spend some time learning, won't I naturally figure it out?"

"That's because Gege is smart. Some people spend their entire lives without learning these things." Tang Guo praised him without restraint. "Let me make you a cup of coffee. You've worked hard."

"How is it hard work? Helping my wife handle her affairs is only natural."

Yes, Qiao Ge had finally achieved his greatest accomplishment.

On the day Tang Guo graduated, he proposed to her, and she happily accepted.

Facing such an outstanding man, and having witnessed everything over the years, Father Tang and Mother Tang could hardly reject him.

Their daughter was becoming better and better. Everything had returned to the proper path.

And Qiao Ge was wholeheartedly devoted to Tang Guo. They couldn't be more satisfied.

Having lived for so many years, they had never seen such a devoted admirer.

When their daughter was studying, Qiao Ge became her school doctor.

When she entered university, he became the university doctor.

And when she returned home to take over the family company, he became her secretary.

Sometimes, when they came to the office to discuss business with Tang Guo, they would see Qiao Ge sitting to one side, earnestly handling all the company's affairs.

Meanwhile, their precious daughter sat in front of her computer shopping away.

They believed that their daughter was perfectly capable of managing company documents herself. Otherwise, they wouldn't have entrusted the company to her.

As for why Qiao Ge was the one doing all this now, it was simply because he couldn't bear to let their daughter tire herself out.

Seeing things like this, the couple was completely satisfied.

Only when no one was around—such as in their bedroom at home when Tang Guo wasn't there—would they quietly embrace each other and gaze silently into one another's eyes.

Their eyes would be red, tears brimming inside.

Without saying a word, they communicated all their secrets with just their gazes.

Their daughter was wonderful.

She was outstanding.

Her future was limitless.

And she had a man who loved her.

But...

If only that dream had never existed, they would truly have been content.

That dream had become their nightmare.

Even in death, they would never forget it.

Even now, it remained deeply engraved in their minds.

The happier Tang Guo became, the more tortured they felt inside. Again and again, they recalled the Tang Guo from that dream and everything she had suffered throughout her life.

And then they would think of the person responsible for it all—

Wu Lingling.

"Marriage?"

Tang Guo wasn't surprised.

But Father Tang and Mother Tang had come personally to tell her the news, clearly pretending to know nothing while actually wanting to ask what she intended to do.

"Yes. Your aunt called yesterday and invited us to attend Lingling's wedding to the young master of the Lu family." Mother Tang's face carried no smile. In her eyes, someone as evil as Wu Lingling shouldn't be able to marry into the Lu family.

So after discussing it, the couple had come to see Tang Guo.

Glancing at Qiao Ge, who sat behind the desk seriously processing documents, their mood improved considerably.

"We haven't been in contact with your aunt's family for many years," Mother Tang said. "She invited all the relatives. Xiaoguo, if you don't want to go, we'll just decline. There's no reason for us to maintain any ties with your aunt's family."

Mother Tang understood Qin Ruolan's intentions.

Wasn't it simply because Wu Lingling was marrying into the Lu family and becoming the daughter-in-law of a wealthy household?

Now that she'd become part of a rich family, she naturally wanted to show off in front of her.
