Leave Mo Shiting?

How is that possible?!

I finally got married to him after so much difficulty. If I leave him now, he’ll lose his life.

Gu Li looked up and glanced at her as she asked casually, “Who are you?”

“You… don’t know me?”

Qiu Yuxin’s eyes widened in disbelief.

I’m one of the top female celebrities in the country, and I’m the female lead of countless popular dramas! There’s actually someone who doesn’t know me?!

She’s pretending, isn’t she?!

At the thought of this, she snorted again. “You’re quite good at pretending, aren’t you?”

Gu Li was speechless. “Am I supposed to know you?”

“You—”

Qiu Yuxin was furious. “Fine! But you should know Shen Yunsi, right? She’s Young Master Mo’s childhood sweetheart girlfriend, and she’s also the only choice for a granddaughter-in-law that Old Madam Song is content with.”

Shen Yunsi was her best friend. She had come to attend Old Madam Fu’s birthday banquet tonight to vent her anger on Gu Li.

“Oh.”

I don’t know her.

“And so?” Gu Li asked.

She had done an investigation on Mo Shiting before, and it showed that he had never had a girlfriend.

Is this woman here to help that Shen Yunsi vent her anger? Or was there something wrong with the information I got?

“You’re just an unpresentable girl. How can you compare to Yunsi? I advise you to be sensible and screw off to where you came from!”

After warning her, Qiu Yuxin glared at her in disdain.

Gu Li burst into laughter. “Why should I compare myself to her? Even if he did have those so-called childhood sweethearts and ex-girlfriends, they’re all in the past. The name that’s written on the column for his spouse on his certificates now is mine.”

Besides, when it comes to childhood sweethearts, I’m not necessarily inferior to others. After all, Big Brother Ting and I were…

“You—”

Qiu Yuxin didn’t expect this girl to be so eloquent, and she couldn’t find any words to refute her for a moment.

At this moment…

“Ladies and gentlemen, please move to the stage…”

The emcee’s magnetic voice pulled everyone’s attention to the center of the banquet venue.

Seeing that Mo Shiting and Old Madam Song had already come out of the study and were standing at the side of the stage, Gu Li was about to go over when Qiu Yuxin grabbed her arm. “Do you know what Old Madam Song is going to do next? She will be announcing the establishment of a public welfare fund named after Yunsi and Young Master Mo. If I were you, I wouldn’t rush over to embarrass myself. Old Madam Song will never acknowledge you. You and Young Master Mo will never have a good ending!”

Gu Li pushed her hand away coldly. “Thank you for reminding me.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she ignored Qiu Yuxin’s pestering and walked away swiftly.

Gu Li didn’t take Qiu Yuxin’s words seriously. However, when she saw Old Madam Song go on stage to announce the official establishment of the Shiyun1 Charity Foundation, she felt inexplicably flustered.

I’m probably just feeling terrible because I got slapped on the face in front of so many people.

But what right do I have to mind?

This marriage is just something that I got from tricking him…

Not wanting to stay in the hall, Gu Li walked to the garden to take a breather.

After sitting on the swing for a long time, Mo Shiting didn’t even come looking for her. Instead, Old Madam Song’s personal servant, Auntie Liu, appeared. “Miss Gu, Old Madam would like to see you.”

“Okay.”

Gu Li got out of the swing and straightened her gown. She followed Auntie Liu gracefully to the study.

Old Madam Song was resting on the sofa. When she saw Gu Li enter, she didn’t ask her to sit down. Instead, she raised her chin and went straight to the point. “Miss Gu, frankly speaking, I don’t consent to your marriage!”

Gu Li replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, “I know, I’ve seen your attitude tonight.”

“Since you know it, name a price!” Old Madam Song said domineeringly.

Even if I can’t control Shiting, I don’t believe I can’t control this young lady.
