Chapter 635: Chapter 636: She is your aunt, and you want to marry her?

Gu Zhaohan’s words instantly filled the room with an eerie silence.

The air, previously ablaze, suddenly turned frosty cold.

Gu Mingzhu, feeling uneasy, had just followed from inside the room.

As she approached the entrance, she happened to hear Gu Zhaohan’s words.

Gu Mingzhu froze, dumbstruck.

The reactions of everyone else were similar to Gu Mingzhu’s.

Even Xia Yangyang couldn’t respond for a moment.

She stared at Gu Zhaohan’s rigid profile.

Only Gu Qichen, his body radiating coldness, spoke, “Xiao Han, have you gone mad?

Gu Zhaohan turned around, his face calm, “The mad one should be you, uncle. You abandoned your own fiancée on the night of your engagement, and now you’re forcing my fiancée to remarry you. Uncle, be clear, Yangyang is not your wife, nor is she a tool at your disposal. You have no right to coerce her into anything she doesn’t want to do.”

Gu Qichen advanced towards Gu Zhaohan, “What gives you the right to say these things to me? Even if I divorced her, she is still my woman.”

“Uncle, you’re not the law. What you say doesn’t have to be.”

Gu Qichen scoffed, “You, an outsider, don’t get to interfere in my affairs with her. At least, I am the natural father of the child.”

“My understanding of a father might be different from yours, uncle. And who Xia Ye wants as his father is not set in stone.”

The two men stared each other down, neither willing to back down.

Gu Qichen eventually laughed, “So, you’ve known all along that Summer is my son.”

“Yangyang and I have known each other abroad for three years. Naturally, I wouldn’t not know.”

Gu Qichen’s fingers clenched tight.

Gu Zhaohan remained unflustered, “What’s the matter, uncle? Are you gonna throw another punch at me?”

Gu Qichen’s face was icy, his voice cold as frost, “No, I will never hit you again, but Gu Zhaohan, from now on, I can’t promise I’ll be so benevolent.”

“The feeling’s mutual.”

Each holding onto one of Xia Yangyang’s hand, neither let go.

Both of Xia Yangyang’s hands were being crushed.

The old man watched as the two men turned against each other over a woman, his anger almost causing his heart condition to flare up.

Finally, with a heavy thump of his cane, he said, “Must you both drive me to my grave before you are satisfied?”

The old man had never imagined that Xiao Han could also have anything to do with this girl.

He had just come back and he was already talking about marriage.

From their conversation, the old man gathered that Xiao Han and the young lady had met abroad and become quite close.

Gu Zhaohan turned and addressed the old man, “Sir, Yangyang and I have already been engaged overseas. She’s now my girlfriend. She has nothing to do with my uncle.”

The old man couldn’t catch his breath, pointing at Gu Zhaohan’s face, “Have you really gone mad? She got engaged to you while carrying your uncle’s child, and you still want to marry her. What on earth is going on?”

“Sir, to tell you the truth, I fell for Yangyang four years ago, and I believe you’re aware of this. Because of my uncle back then, I gave up on her. But now, they’re divorced. There shouldn’t be any problem with us being together. As for Yangyang’s child, I’ve always treated him as my own.”

“But she’s your aunt!” The old man angrily tossed an ink stone at Gu Zhaohan.

The ink stone landed heavily on Gu Zhaohan’s chest, giving a dull thud before falling to the ground and shattering to pieces.

Gu Zhaohan coughed out, his voice as cold as he said, “Sir, I think you’re confused. Once Yangyang divorced my uncle, she stopped being my aunt.”
