Chapter 444: Not Agreeing

"No." Gu Haojun looked at Wang Meili in confusion, unsure why she suddenly reacted this way, "What’s wrong?"

"What’s her family situation?" Wang Meili sat up straight and asked.

"She has a grandma," Gu Haojun said, "She’s a very filial girl, also cheerful and optimistic, I feel very comfortable being with her."

It’s a feeling he’s never had before.

No matter what difficulties he encounters, it seems talking to her would always clear things up.

She seems to never have any unhappy moments; every time he sees her, she’s always so happy, and she spreads that happiness to everyone around her.

Gu Haojun is one of those people.

He hadn’t told his family, that he got injured during a mission, if not for Liu Juanhao’s care and encouragement, he might never have stood up again.

And wouldn’t have achieved what he has today.

"Just a grandma? Isn’t that like being an orphan?" Wang Meili said angrily, "How can such a stubborn girl enter our family?"

"Haojun, listen to your mom, go back and cut it off with her." Wang Meili pleaded earnestly, "You have such a promising future in the military, find a female soldier or something, it’s a life decision."

"Yeah, Haojun, your mom is right." Old Mrs. Gu chimed in, "That girl’s fate is hard, if you marry her, she might bring bad luck to our family."

"In my opinion, Peiling is quite good."

"Mom, we’re talking about Liu Juanhao now." Wang Meili interrupted Old Mrs. Gu, "Haojun, can I stop pushing you now? Find a female soldier peacefully in the military, such people can help you with promotions."

"What can Liu Juanhao do with just a grandma? She’ll only hold you back."

"Her grandma is a very capable person, you haven’t met her, so you don’t know," Gu Haojun said, "And I, Gu Haojun, never need to rely on a woman for promotion."

Gu Haojun didn’t say that Liu Juanhao is an orphan, picked up by Old Mrs. Liu since she was young, growing up with her grandmother who is a very wise elder, respected by everyone who knows her, whether in the village or the military.

It’s said that during difficult times, she was the first to support the military’s development.

"Fine, won’t you listen to anything I say?" Wang Meili angrily sat there wiping away tears, "Ever since your dad died, I’ve been raising you siblings through thick and thin, is this how you repay me?"

"I don’t agree to this marriage, and don’t bring her home during New Year." Wang Meili threw down this remark and went back to her room.

"Haojun, listen to Grandma." Old Mrs. Gu said painfully, "Don’t fight with your mom, she’s suffered enough."

"Listen to Grandma, that girl has a hard fate, look, without much ado, she’s already driven you and your mom apart." Old Mrs. Gu patted her grandson’s hand.

Gu Haojun smiled helplessly.

Should he destroy his life’s happiness just to avoid angering Wang Meili?

He just couldn’t understand, why is the same situation treated completely differently at Uncle’s house compared to his own?

Why do Uncle and Grandpa think Liu Juanhao is wonderful, with a firm and optimistic character able to endure hardship, confident they’ll live a good life?

While his own mom only thinks she’ll hold him back?

Is Gu Haojun really so incapable that he can only rely on women?
