Chapter 467: Chapter 467: Shifting Blame Again Chapter 467: Chapter 467: Shifting Blame Again “Miss Wan, I, Gu Ya, will not take you as my wife! You Wan Family people had better dispel this thought sooner rather than later!” he said mercilessly, cutting off their intention to force Wan Ruyan upon him.
He didn’t glance at the Wan Family members again.
After Gu Ya spoke, he took his little wife’s hand and said, “Yunjin, let’s go!”
“Gu, how dare you? How dare–you–!” Wan Fumin was so angry that he trembled all over, wanting to threaten Gu Ya, but he realized that he had no words that could even remotely intimidate him.
Indeed, this time the Wan Family had no right to insist, and if Gu Ya truly didn’t marry Wan Ruyan, there was nothing they could do! Persisting in this matter would only bring shame to the Wan Family.
The Wan Family members were livid, while Su Yunjin, led away by Gu Ya, turned back to see their faces so dark they looked as if water could be wrung from them. Suddenly, she stopped, pulled her hand free from Gu Ya’s, and walked back to them.
“Shopkeeper Wan, it doesn’t matter if my husband doesn’t marry your daughter, there’s still my elder nephew Gu Changshun! Half of Miss Wan’s damaged reputation can be attributed to Gu Changshun, after all. If the Wan family truly fears that she won’t be able to marry, then you can completely let my elder nephew marry her!”
Mrs. Zhang had previously harbored ill intentions, attempting to push Wan Ruyan onto her husband. Now, Su Yunjin was returning the favor, proposing that her son Gu Changshun marry Wan Ruyan instead.
Moreover, Su Yunjin knew that the Wan Family members were dead set on having someone from the Gu Family marry Wan Ruyan, and they were not stupid. They surely were aware by now that it was impossible to expect her husband to marry Wan Ruyan.
Next, the Wan Family would undoubtedly make another attempt to have Gu Changshun marry Wan Ruyan. Upon hearing Su Yunjin’s words, Mrs. Zhang instantly became so furious that she was fuming.
“Su Yunjin, you black-hearted and malicious person, what exactly is your intent here? You actually dare to frame my son ?” Su Yunjin turned and smiled at Mrs. Zhang.
Her smile was innocent as she said, “Elder sister-in-law, you mustn’t speak like that! I’m just trying to help you! If you had Miss Wan, wouldn’t you be free of worries about finding a daughter-in-law? Besides, as you said before, the Wan Family and the Gu Family are already related by marriage. If my elder nephew were to marry Miss Wan, it would be a union upon a union, bringing our two families even closer together. Isn’t that a win-win?”
“Su! Yun! Jin!” Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she almost spat blood, each word seeming to be squeezed out through clenched teeth. Su Yunjin had dared to throw back in her face all the accusations Mrs. Zhang had made against her and Gu Ya.
Mrs. Zhang was so angered by Su Yunjin’s words that she felt like spitting blood, while the Wan Family members were indeed, as Su Yunjin had anticipated, conceding that it was now impossible for Gu Ya to marry Wan Ruyan!
The Wan Family members were also thinking of settling for the next best option by having Gu Changshun marry Wan Ruyan.
“Mrs. Zhang, our Wan Family asking Gu Ya to marry Yanyan may have been overstepping, but isn’t it reasonable to have your son marry her? This time, it is your son Gu Changshun who has tarnished our Yanyan’s innocence, and neither you nor your son will be able to deny it this time!”
Mrs. Zhang looked down on Wan Ruyan.
She naturally didn’t want Wan Ruyan as her daughter-in-law. Abandoning the pretense of kindness she had shown just moments before, Mrs. Zhang once again started to argue loudly with the Wan Family members.
“Marry whom? My son isn’t in any hurry to marry! If your Wan Family wants to marry off a girl, marry her to someone else. Just don’t impose her on my son!”
Watching Mrs. Zhang and the Wan Family members in a bitter quarrel, Su Yunjin lost interest in the spectacle. Walking up to Gu Ya, she reached for his hand.
“Alright, my husband, let’s go!”
