The Jing City, the Jiang family.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ever since Gu Duo ran away from the marriage, Jiang Yue had locked herself up at home every day and wash her face with tears. She had even lost her temper.

She had now completely become the laughingstock of Jing City, so Jiang Yue did not have the courage to go out at all.

Qin Xi’s heart ached for Jiang Yue, and she comforted Jiang Yue, “How would you look if you locked yourself up at home all day? What kind of a lady from a noble family hasn’t seen all the storms and waves? The more indifferent you act now, the more Old Master Gu will admire you.”

Jiang Yue’s eyes were red and swollen, and her face was full of doubt. “Really? But Third Young Master Gu isn’t even willing to marry me...”

“Whether he’s willing or not, it’s not up to him to decide.”

The corners of Qin Xi’s mouth curled up into a cold smile, and there was a hidden scheme in her eyes. “Right now, Old Master Gu is still in charge of the Gu family. As long as Old Master Gu likes you, there won’t be a second candidate for the Third Young Madam of the Gu family other than you!”

Jiang Yue immediately figured out the crux of the matter and immediately perked up. “I’ll go and visit Old Master Gu now.”

When Old Master Gu received the news, out of guilt toward Jiang Yue, he broke the rules set by Gu Duo and ordered someone to welcome Jiang Yue into the Gu residence.

“Grandpa Gu.”

Jiang Yue smiled sweetly and greeted Old Master Gu warmly. Seeing that she did not look depressed and acted as if nothing had happened before, a hint of admiration could not help but flow from her eyes, “Lil Yue, it’s my brat who has let you down. I’ll personally bring him to apologize later!”

“Grandpa Gu, please don’t say that. With you like this, Lil Yue won’t dare to come again in the future.”

Jiang Yue smiled and joked with him. The old and young were still chatting happily.

Old Master Gu suddenly thought of Liu Feng and asked unintentionally, “What about that sister of yours?”

Seeing Old Master Gu mention Liu Feng, Jiang Yue’s body stiffened for a moment, but she quickly recovered.

“Sister is very good. Previously, because of the environment, she couldn’t get a university degree. Now, she has taught herself a lot in the nursing field.”

Seeing that Old Master Gu seemed to be deep in thought, Jiang Yue narrowed her eyes and continued to add, “Moreover, sister is also relatively simple-minded. Not long after she came to Jing City, she had a boyfriend. Although her boyfriend’s family background is average, she doesn’t mind it. She still has a very good relationship with her boyfriend.”

Had a boyfriend?

Old Master Gu’s impression of Liu Feng instantly decreased by a lot. She had an engagement with the Chu family, had a boyfriend outside, and was even involved with his son. A girl with such a messy private life was not worthy of Gu Duo.

Grandfather Gu immediately lost interest in understanding Liu Feng. So when Liu Feng came to visit him for treatment the next day, although Old master Gu’s attitude was a lot better, his tone was still a bit tough.

“Doctor Liu, just take it that I’m an old chatterbox.”

Old Master Gu watched Liu Feng put away the needle bag, and a glint flashed across his aged eyes. “This son of mine has always been clean and self-righteous. He has never been in a relationship before, so he’s easily fooled.”

“Since you have an engagement with the Chu family, shouldn’t you draw a line between yourself and Gu Duo?”

Liu Feng did not lift her eyelids and said with a lazy smile, “Old Master, don’t worry. I’m not interested in marrying into a wealthy family either.”

Liu Feng raised her eyes and looked at Old Master Gu with a faint smile. “Next time, please tie your son’s legs more firmly.”

Liu Feng picked up the medical box and was about to leave the Gu family when Gu Duo caught up from behind. He grabbed her wrist and looked at her deeply. “Liu Feng, whether you believe it or not, I will never marry Jiang Yue.”

“Does it have anything to do with me?”

Liu Feng raised her eyes coldly and said in an indifferent tone, “I don’t care who you want to marry or who will marry you. Please don’t bother me in the future.”

For some reason, she was not in a good mood. She did not like this feeling of losing control.

“Liu Feng!”

Gu Duo held her tightly and did not give her a chance to escape. “If you don’t want to be in a relationship with me, I can’t force you.”

Gu Duo took a deep breath and stared at Liu Feng sternly. “It’s fine if we don’t get married and maintain our current relationship until you cure your illness or find someone more satisfactory.”

He looked straight into Liu Feng’s eyes, his dark pupils reflecting the other party’s beautiful face. “Before this, I will not force you. As long as you continue to insist on not marrying me in the future, I can agree to end the relationship.”

This kind of condition had almost no benefit to Gu Duo.

Liu Feng looked at him in shock and confusion, her red lips pursed slightly. “I don’t agree.”

“This is unfair to you.”

Gu Duo’s obsidian-like eyes were like a bottomless tunnel. He looked at Liu Feng with a heavy gaze. “I don’t want fairness, I only want you.”

Liu Feng’s heart skipped a beat.. She looked away in a sorry state and fled in panic.
