He couldn’t marry someone he had never met before. He only wanted her, the woman who had given him warmth and strength, the woman who had brought him out of the darkness, the woman with a cold face and a determined mind.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

If he wants it, he will get it!

As soon as Gan Lin’s words were uttered, the interior hall full of guests immediately let out a low cry of surprise.

Rescinding a marriage proposal was not something that can be said casually. With these official families, if two families had agreed on marriage, then unless there was a major event, it was absolutely impossible to retreat. If the marriage was divorced, the two parties who negotiated marriage would break from now on, which would have a huge impact on both parties who withdrew, especially for women. Once withdrawn, it is estimated that they will not be able to marry in this life.

Yu Qianjiao’s face turned pale suddenly, and the blood on her lips faded bit by bit.

What did he say? He wanted to withdraw his marriage offer!?

Yu Qianjiao was stunned by this sudden shock. She didn’t believe her ears for a while, and didn’t know what to say.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on these people, and the female relatives who were meddlesome had already started whispering.

The only son of the Gan Mansion said in public that he would withdraw his marriage offer. This was big news. The news of Gan Lin’s marriage was widely circulated in the capital, at this moment, the influence of his withdrawal is much greater.

Seeing that everyone had looks of surprise, shock, or confusion, Lady Gan didn’t care about her face anymore. She frowned and sternly stopped him: “Shut up!”

Marriage was a big deal, did he think it was like a play? Even if Lady Gan spoiled Gan Lin again, she must stop him immediately, otherwise the Gan family will lose face.

Gan Lin stood stubbornly in the middle of the hall, as if he didn’t see the complex looks on everyone’s faces nor heard everyone’s whispers. His face was taut and gloomy and his voice was extremely firm.

“Mother, I will never marry the person next to you. The one I want to marry is her!”

Raising his arm, he pointed at Yu Linglong without hesitation. Gan Lin resolutely said: “She is the woman who saved me. I only want her, I don’t want anyone else!”

Following his fingers, Lady Gan looked at Yu Linglong with complicated and helpless eyes. Her voice slowed down a bit, but her tone was still stern. She shouted to Gan Lin: “Lin’er, don’t mess around!”

Gan Lin frowned and said loudly, “Mother, I didn’t make a fool of you! You have the wrong person, I won’t recognize this marriage!”

Turning his head, Gan Lin looked at Yu Linglong and his eyes were full of pain: “You...what is your name?”

He didn’t even know the name of the woman who had been thinking about it for so long.

Yu Linglong sat behind the table and looked at the farce in front of her with cold eyes. When Gan Lin turned to ask her, she smiled slightly. Her pretty face was as cold as ice and snow, and her voice was indifferent and clear: “...I am the Fourth Lady of the Yu family, my name is Yu Linglong.”

Except for Yu Qianjiao and Yang Yunzheng, most of the female relatives present had long admired Yu Linglong for a long time, but they had no chance to see her. Now when they heard her name, the hall was immediately filled with gasps.

This time it was boisterous. Who didn’t know that Fourth Lady Yu was the sweetheart of Lord Xu? The Gan family was indeed full of flames, but did Gan Lin dare to steal women from Lord Xu?

Gan Lin’s flushed face suddenly turned pale, and he couldn’t help taking a small step back, his eyes were full of shock: “You...you are Fourth Lady Yu?”

Yu Linglong looked at him quietly without answering.

After a moment of silence, Gan Lin laughed mockingly: “I should have known, last Ghost Festival...”

He met Yu Linglong on the street that day, but he was robbed of his love by Lord Xu. That time he just felt strange, but he didn’t think deeply about it. Looking back now, he saw how ridiculous he was. He never doubted Lord Xu’s abnormal behavior.

He was dazzled by the news of the Xu marriage in the Yu house, but he never thought about her status, how stupid he was...

The hand pointing to Yu Linglong dropped weakly. Gan Lin seemed to have grown a lot in an instant, with a wry smile on his face, fixedly looking at Yu Linglong, and whispered: “Linglong...a nice name. You won’t lie to me again.”

Looking at Gan Lin’s desperate face, Lady Gan showed heartache and anger. She gave Yu Linglong a fierce look, got up and walked to Gan Lin’s side, and grabbed him: “Lin’er, let’s go.”

Gan Lin seemed to lose consciousness, and was numbly pulled away by Lady Gan. When he walked by the screen, he seemed to suddenly remember something. He looked back at Yu Linglong and said, “Yu Linglong, I remember your name. You must also remember my words: I will not marry anyone except for you!”

Lady Gan didn’t say anything, but only increased the strength in her hand, pulling Gan Lin away quickly.

As soon as the Gan family left, the room fell into an awkward silence for a moment. It was not broken until a scream rang through the room.

“I don’t, I don’t want—”

The woman who screamed desperately was Yu Qianjiao, who had just come back to her senses. She was completely stunned by the news. It was not until Lady Gan left with Gan Lin that she finally understood the reality of having her proposal withdrawn by Gan Mansion.

She felt like she fell from the sky into hell in an instant. She was just looking at her future husband-in-law with joy, and in a blink of an eye, she became an abandoned wife who was discarded by her husband’s family before the wedding.

Yu Qianjiao lifted her skirt and subconsciously ran in the direction where Lady Gan and Gan Lin had left. She seemed to want to redeem everything she had just done before, and only took a few steps. She suddenly recovered and turned around. She looked at Yu Linglong calmly.

Her careful eyes were like a poisoned arrow, stabbing at Yu Linglong fiercely. At this moment, Yu Qianjiao wanted to cut Yu Linglong into a thousand pieces. This woman could take away everything that should belong to her. Why did she make her an abandoned woman? Why did she ruin her life like this!?

What did she do wrong? Why should she be punished like this? Why should she be suppressed by a commoner’s daughter!?

The monstrous anger burned all her sanity and made her forget Yu Linglong’s harsh methods. Now she just wanted to pounce on the woman who ruined her marriage, grab her, scratch her, bit her, and vent her hate onto her!

Leaving the skirt in her hand, Yu Qianjiao stretched out her hand painted with bright pink nail polish and grabbed in Yu Linglong’s direction.

Her face was full of despair and hatred, as if she wanted to put Yu Linglong to death immediately: “Yu Linglong, I want to kill you!”

Her refined eyebrows frowned slightly, and Yu Linglong slid to the side, avoiding Yu Qianjiao’s thoughtless reach. Yu Qianjiao couldn’t hold back her momentum, and directly threw herself on the table full of dishes. The gorgeous long skirt was immediately stained with countless vegetable soup stains, and the soup water dripped down her front and skirt.

Yu Qianjiao didn’t seem to realize how embarrassing she was now. She got up from the messy ground, rushed towards Yu Linglong, and gritted her teeth and said, “Yu Linglong, you vixen, how dare you seduce my husband—”

When everyone heard these words, they couldn’t help showing contemptuous expressions one after another, and several ladies turned their faces away, pretending not to hear them.

Before she got married, her sister that scolded her had seduced her husband. Sixth Lady Yu was really shameless.

Yu Qianjiao didn’t notice the contemptuous glances cast by everyone. At this moment, she only had Yu Linglong in her eyes. She only wanted to kill the woman who prevented her from marrying into a high family!

Seeing Yu Qianjiao’s thin arms stretched out to her viciously, Yu Linglong sniffed in disdain, and gently and skillfully picked up her embroidered shoes, and slammed Yu Qianjiao’s hand under her feet.

This girl was frustrated and crazy. She had been rejected, how dare you anger her? She hadn’t seen her beat someone up in a while, did she have guts again now?

It was true that Gan Lin wanted to withdraw his proposal to Yu Qianjiao because of her, but why Yu Qianjiao didn’t think about it? Had it not been for Yu Linglong, would Lady Gan go to the Yu house to propose? When they went to propose a marriage, why didn’t she think about how such a good thing would fall on her? Did anyone ever consider why the Gan family wanted to marry Yu Qianjiao?[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “

If there was someone to blame, they could only blame themselves. When Master Gan came to propose a marriage in person, he unloaded a couple of taels, and everything was left behind. They would never calm down and think about it!

People who don’t know how many catties they cost. Every day they only imagined that the sparrow would become a phoenix once it flies on a branch. They didn’t blame others for taking advantage of it, so they could only blame themselves for being useless!

Yu Linglong stepped on Yu Qianjiao’s hand. Her icy face was full of impatience: “Have you had enough trouble!?”

Yu Qianjiao raised her face and stared at Yu Linglong fiercely, with hatred in her eyes: “I made trouble? You think it was me!? If it weren’t for you, how could I be rejected!? If it weren’t for you, in a few months I would be able to marry into the Gan family and be the new wife of the Gan family! But now, I have nothing, nothing!”

Her voice became stern, and her carefully-painted face changed hideously: “Yu Linglong, why can you get everything you want, and I have nothing!? Why do you take away everything that belongs to me? I tell you, Lord Gan is mine, mine!”

Yu Qianjiao burst into laughter suddenly, her expression gradually becoming mad: “You make me unable to be the new wife of the Gan family, but you haven’t even married yet! Lord Xu is about to marry you. Who do you think you are? You’re better off than I am. You just play with people—”

Yu Linglong’s face suddenly became fierce, and with a quick wave of her little hand, she slapped Yu Qianjiao’s face loudly!

With a slap, she interrupted Yu Qianjiao’s foul language. She paused, and a few drops of blood gradually appeared on the corners of her mouth, but her face was still smiling, looking terrible and cruel.

“What, I’m right? I haven’t married yet, so don’t think about it! You pretend to be a virgin woman, do you think I haven’t seen it? You and Lord Xu are hugging in the garden, so shameless—”

The vicious words were like a series of cannons, one after another. There was nothing in Yu Qianjiao’s mind now. She just wanted to slander Yu Linglong happily, just to see the pretty face that will always be like an iceberg for thousands of years showing a painful look!

“...Do you think that the prince would want you? You’re dreaming! They just want to play with you! Now you are dumbfounded that they are going to get married! What about you? What are you?”

Everyone was stunned, and watched the sisters scold and beat each other, and even forgot to come forward and mediate them.

The more Yu Qianjiao scolded, the more cheerful she was, and the long-standing resentment that had been accumulated in her heart was constantly being shed. She wanted to watch Yu Linglong cry, watch her be sad, and watch her feel pain!

But her goal was not realized. As Yu Linglong watched her scream, her voice became more and more stern, and her words became more and more vicious. That beautiful dawn-colored face showed a mocking smile and looked at her. Her eyes were full of contempt.

Leaning over slowly, Yu Linglong stretched out her hand and patted Yu Qianjiao’s cheek, as if she was just a puppy that kept barking and barking.

“Have you said enough?”

When she felt that cold hand on her face, Yu Qianjiao shivered involuntarily. She tried to raise her face and look at Yu Linglong viciously, and she said: “Yu Linglong, I curse you to never get married, I curse you to be lonely forever!”

The dimples at the corners of her mouth gradually deepened. Yu Linglong’s voice was very soft, but her words were harsh: “Really? It’s a pity that you are the one who can’t get married now, and you will never get married!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Linglong lifted her feet from Yu Qianjiao’s hands. Before Yu Qianjiao could withdraw her hands, Yu Linglong kicked her on her waist fiercely and kicked her away!

There was a scream of horror in the air, and Yu Qianjiao’s body directly slammed into the screen. Where the thin screen could withstand the blow, she fell immediately.

The guests in the outer hall were startled by this sudden sound and turned their heads to look at them.

Yu Qianjiao was covered with oily soup, lying on the ground in a strange posture, groaning in pain.

As if she didn’t see everyone’s stunned gaze, Yu Linglong walked slowly to Yu Qianjiao, lifted her blood-stained chin with her left hand, and slapped her face with her right hand mercilessly!

“You slut, you need to be put in your place!”

A heavy slap in the face caused Yu Qianjiao’s cheeks to swell up, and with a long and miserable howl, two small semi-circular objects flew out of her mouth and flew in the air, making two high arcs and landing on a dish on a dinner table nearby.

Everyone’s gazes involuntarily followed the two small semicircles. It looked unimportant, but the guests sitting at the table immediately stood up hurriedly, far away from those two things. A few fragile young ladies fell directly on the back of the chair and vomited.

The two semicircular objects that fell on the dish were actually her dentures with fresh blood stains!

Looking at Yu Qianjiao, she was lying on the ground and screaming again and again. On one side, her beaten cheek was swollen, but the other side collapsed strangely, as if she was a few dozen years older all of a sudden. She was such a beautiful woman, with a face like half a pig’s head, half a skull.

The daughter of the Yu Mansion turned out to be a toothless ugly woman!

The people present were all female relatives from various provinces. Where had they seen such disgusting scenes before? Many people were disgusted, and they looked at Yu Qianjiao with eyes of disdain and disgust.

Noticing that her mouth was empty, Yu Qianjiao subconsciously touched her face. When she touched the shriveled cheek, her heart sank suddenly, as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss.

In the presence of so many people, she was so ugly, and her face was completely lost!

It didn’t matter if she was rejected by the Gan family. Everyone in the capital knew that she was a toothless woman, so she couldn’t get married at all!

Yu Qianjiao almost forgot to find Yu Linglong to get revenge. She didn’t care about the pain in her body. She tried to get up and fumbled around. With her toothless mouth wide open, she asked the people around her anxiously: “My teeth, where are my teeth? Did anyone see my teeth!?”

No one answered her. Dozens of eyes looked at her, full of disgust, as if looking at the biggest monster in the world.

Yu Qianjiao regained consciousness suddenly and let out a desperate scream, and stumbled outside with her face covered.

In her life, she never wanted to see anyone again.

Yu Linglong pulled out a kerchief, wiped her hand alone, and ignored everyone’s horrified or surprised eyes. She turned and walked towards the inner hall.

At this moment, Shi Huiru stood up, walked in front of her, and looked at her worriedly: “Linglong, are you okay?”

Just like Yu Qianjiao’s words, every sentence made her uncomfortable. Even she felt sad, let alone Yu Linglong.

Shi Huiru had no sympathy for that vicious Yu Qianjiao. What she cared about was the mood of her good sister Yu Linglong.

Yu Linglong didn’t answer her, but said softly: “I’m leaving.”

Seeing her calm face, Shi Huiru couldn’t help but feel relieved. She walked to Yu Linglong’s side and said, “Then I will send you off.”

Yu Linglong nodded and looked around at the people in the room. After experiencing the change just now, everyone’s expressions were a little unnatural.

Only Yang Yunzheng sat there quietly. Her clear eyes met Yu Linglong’s gaze, but a deep smile appeared on her face.

Yu Linglong paused slightly, then averted her gaze, and walked out with Shi Huiru.

In the banquet room, the maid cleaned up the mess that was made, and the flute music started again. It was like what just happened did not happen, and it did not affect the banquet at all.

Yu Linglong and Shi Huiru walked outside together, still silent.

Shi Huiru raised her eyes to Yu Linglong from time to time, but couldn’t say anything comforting.

She had already regarded Yu Linglong as her good sister in her heart, but even the best sister could not say anything.

At this moment, she would rather stay silent and stand by Yu Linglong’s side than say some empty words to comfort her.

Before they knew it, they had already reached the gate. Yu Linglong smiled faintly at Shi Huiru, and said, “I ruined your pleasure today.”

If she was someone else, she wouldn’t care what others thought, but Shi Huiru still had a place for her in her heart.

Shi Hui was startled and said, “What are you talking about? Whatever this is, don’t take it to heart.”

After a pause, she couldn’t help but say softly: “Linglong, you...you have to be good.”

Yu Linglong was startled slightly. Then she remembered that Shi Hui was worried that she was sad, and couldn’t help but smile a little: “I’m fine, don’t worry.”

She was really fine, she thought. She didn’t care about Lord Xu. Being married off was a good thing; at least he wouldn’t have so much free time to pester her in the future.

It’s just that this was heard in Shi Huiru’s ears, but it had a different meaning. Shi Huiru paused, her eyes moistened, but she didn’t want Yu Linglong to see it. She wiped the corners of her eyes quickly, and smiled reluctantly: “Then I won’t send you off. Go back and be careful.”

Yu Linglong nodded, and the two broke up at the gate of the Shi house.

The carriage for the Yu house was already waiting outside. Ling’er took down the footstool, and Yu Linglong was about to get on the carriage when she heard a voice from behind.
