Chapter 408: Chapter 408: Hoping for His Comfort Chapter 408: Chapter 408: Hoping for His Comfort Wan Ruyan never received any solace from Gu Ya.
Gu Ya did not even look at her.
In her heart, Wan Ruyan felt both anger and regret.
When she looked up, she accidentally met Su Yunjin’s eyes, who seemed to be watching the drama unfold.
Wan Ruyan felt even more embarrassed.
“Third brother, Yanyan came to see you with good intentions. How could you speak to Yanyan with such a tone?” She doted on her own younger sister-in-law.
She couldn’t stand to see her sister-in-law Wan Ruyan being wronged.
Gu Hengniang then demanded that Gu Ya apologize to Wan Ruyan, “Third brother, look how upset you’ve made Yanyan. Aren’t you going to apologize to your sister Yanyan right away?”
“Second sister, as a married man, do you think it’s appropriate for Miss Wan to visit here?” Gu Ya retorted.
Gu Hengniang was left speechless.
Wan Ruyan was extraordinarily aggrieved.
Her Brother Gu had never treated her before.
In the past, Brother Gu always treated her politely, calling her Sister Yanyan; why was she now addressed as Miss Wan? With her head lowered, Wan Ruyan knew she was wrong for not visiting the Gu Family after Gu Ya’s legs were injured, but that wasn’t entirely her fault, was it?
If she had known that Gu Ya’s legs could heal, she would have married him a long time ago. Wasn’t it because she thought Gu Ya’s legs would not recover that she didn’t marry him?
After all, she, Wan Ruyan, couldn’t possibly marry a cripple, could she?
Second Sister Gu Hengniang didn’t know what to say. Her husband, Wan Da’an, pulled his sister Wan Ruyan and left, “Yanyan, this is the third brother and his wife’s room. It’s not quite appropriate for an unmarried girl to be here. Yanyan, let’s leave this place.”
Wan Da’an took Wan Ruyan out, but she didn’t want to leave at all.
However, Wan Ruyan, not wanting to leave, had no choice but to follow her older brother.
Gu Hengniang looked at her third brother, perplexed. Her third brother had never spoken to her in such a tone before, “Third brother, what’s gotten into you today?”
Thinking that Gu Ya was still holding a grudge about Wan Ruyan breaking off their engagement, Gu Hengniang said, “Third brother, Second Sister knows that it was wrong of Yanyan to break off the engagement. But that happened such a long time ago. Now that you are married to Yunjin, even if Yanyan did something wrong in the past, it’s in the past, and you shouldn’t be treating Yanyan !”
Gu Hengniang was speaking up for her sister-in-law.
She didn’t notice Su Yunjin’s expression on the side at all.
Gu Ya glanced at his wife before looking back at his second sister Gu Hengniang and countered, “Second sister, do you really think my actions just now weren’t in consideration of Miss Wan?”
Second Sister Gu Hengniang was at a loss for words again.
Gu Ya continued, “Moreover, second sister, now that Yunjin and I are married, she is your sister-in-law. Even if Miss Wan and I had something in the past, which we didn’t, Yunjin is now your sister-in-law. As for Miss Wan, I hope that you will not associate her with me in any way in the future.”
Wan Ruyan heard these words from Gu Ya as she walked outside.
Her heart turned cold all at once.
Outraged, she ran out.
As Wan Da’an saw this, he hurriedly chased after her, “Yanyan, Yanyan!”
The louder her brother called from behind,
The faster Wan Ruyan ran.
Gu Hengniang had not yet spoken.
Gu Ya said again, “Second sister, let’s put today’s incident behind us. But if you come back in the future, I hope you won’t bring Miss Wan with you.”
By the end of Gu Ya’s words, Gu Hengniang’s face was beyond description.
