"I did not." Gu Junhe shook his head.
But Xie Liang didn’t care whether he admitted it or not, shouting that it was Gu Junhe who said it himself, even giving the time and place, making it hard to doubt that he was lying.
"Gu Junhe, did you really tell him to marry my second sister, and that my parents agreed?" Gu Mingcheng anxiously asked.
As far as he remembered, his second sister had a boyfriend.
"My second sister has a boyfriend, how could she marry you." Gu Mingcheng thought this way and said it too, looking at Xie Liang and thinking, it’s not just that he’s plain looking, even his foot is lame.
Gu Mingcheng swore he wasn’t being prejudiced; it’s just that his second sister’s appearance was flawless, even more beautiful and elegant than the often-praised eldest sister, Gu Mingzhu. Not to mention, his second sister was still a student at Beining University. Such an outstanding sister could never be a match for Xie Liang.
So what if Xie Liang’s family had money?
The Gu Family didn’t need to sell their daughters, did they?
"Mingcheng, Junhe told me very clearly, saying your parents agreed." Xie Liang asserted firmly. He knew Gu Mingcheng, aware that he was the only son of the Gu Family. Xie Liang tightened his grip on Gu Junhe’s hand, showing a fierce expression as he questioned again, "Do you dare to deceive me?"
Even though Xie Liang’s foot wasn’t in good shape, he was naturally strong-handed, almost about to crush Gu Junhe’s hand.
"Xie Liang, Brother Xie, don’t be impulsive, my hand, my hand." Gu Junhe’s face scrunched up in pain.
Gu Junhe didn’t dare to admit at this moment, but Xie Liang was relentless. His hand was almost breaking from the pain, and he couldn’t struggle free. In the end, Gu Junhe had no choice but to push the matter onto Gu Mingzhu.
"It was Sister Mingzhu, Sister Mingzhu who told me this. I don’t know anything." Gu Junhe was in such pain that tears almost fell, cursing Xie Liang from head to toe in his heart for his ruthless grip.
Sitting on the hospital bed, Gu Mingzhu’s face darkened slightly and she reflexively looked at Jiang Jing beside her. Seeing his furrowed brow, she hurriedly explained, "It was my mother’s idea. The Xie Family and the Gu Family used to have good relations, so I asked Junhe to test the waters. Who knew Junhe misunderstood, and Xie Liang also misunderstood, thinking our Gu Family was going to marry Nianhua to him."
Gu Mingzhu subtly signaled to Fang Yue, who had originally wanted to argue but swallowed her words. In her view, nothing bad would come of it. Although she didn’t know why Xie Liang’s mother suddenly came to hit her, she was now justified and said confidently, "Xie Liang, you want to marry my daughter, but I don’t agree. Just look at this bald patch."
Fang Yue parted her hair to reveal a bare patch and said, "Your mother did this. I wouldn’t want to marry my daughter into your family."
Since the two families had already fallen out, Fang Yue didn’t hold back anymore.
Fang Yue and Xie Liang began to argue.
Xie Liang’s mother rushed over in a hurry and, seeing her son was safe and sound, pointed at Fang Yue and scolded, "I’ve long heard that you despise your younger daughter for not being a boy, purposely abandoning her. Now that she’s in college, you claim her back. Hmph!" Fresh chapters posted on 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲·𝗻𝗲𝘁
Xie Liang’s mother spat at Fang Yue, saying, "People say she has a boyfriend, yet you want my son to marry her, even bringing my son to see her first. Now that my son likes her, you go back on your word. If you ask me, there’s no one else like you in the world as a mother!"
"You’re talking nonsense." Fang Yue’s face changed. She had anticipated that the ruckus at the hospital might spread, but being directly accused by Xie Liang’s mother made her both embarrassed and furious.
