Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Gu Zhuo’s actions made many at the scene cover their faces with laughter. Everyone understood the situation, but with the elders of both families having spoken, it seed this matter would not be easily changed.

Sure enough, Gu Hai pinched Gu Zhuo hard. “You brat! You did this, and now you don’t want to take responsibility for the girl? Are you even a man?”

“Dad!” Gu Zhuo’s eyes turned red with anger. If he still didn’t understand what was going on, he would be a fool.

But he couldn’t confront Gu Hai in front of so many people. He couldn’t very well say that his own father had drugged him to achieve this end, could he?

In the end, Gu Zhuo stamred and refused to agree to the engagent with Xu Wen. anwhile, Old Mr. Xu’s people had already started clearing the room. Song Fan and Gu Chen took a deep look at Gu Zhuo before leaving as well.

“I don’t care what happened, but what I said cannot be changed,” Old Mr. Xu’s tone turned cold once the outsiders had left.

He knew his granddaughter was willful. She had nearly lost her life last ti, and now she had pulled such a stunt. He could not let Xu Wen continue to cause trouble.

Gu Hai gripped his son’s arm tightly. Gu Zhuo realized he had little strength to resist and decided to think of another plan later. After all, no one could force him into a marriage he didn’t want.

However, Xu Wen was the one who reacted the most. “I don’t want to marry him!”

She had already beco a crying ss, and Mrs. Xu was beside her, comforting her.

Old Mr. Xu knew his granddaughter’s temper and turned to Gu Hai, “We will discuss this matter further. You take Gu Zhuo and leave for now.”

His words implied that the Xu Family would handle their own affairs. Xu Wen’s father had been abroad recently, and Old Mr. Xu needed to manage any negative press affecting the Xu Family.

“Slap!” As soon as Gu Hai and his son left, Old Mr. Xu slapped Xu Wen without rcy.

Mrs. Xu wanted to say sothing, but seeing the fierce look in her father-in-law’s eyes, she held back.

“Foolish girl! Using such despicable thods—how could the Xu Family have such a daughter?” Old Mr. Xu was furious, gasping for breath. “You and your mother wanted to trap Gu Chen, then you should have ensured it was foolproof. What kind of ss is this?”

He didn’t need to ask to understand what had happened. He wasn’t angry that Xu Wen had embarrassed the family— the Xu Family had ways to handle that.

But he couldn’t accept having such an incompetent heir. Soone who was both ignorant and scheming, only to end up ensnaring herself.

“What could I do? Gu Chen likes Song Fan. Grandpa, you’re so powerful, why can’t you make him marry ?” Xu Wen scread, in her eyes, the Xu Family should fully support her. Her current situation was entirely due to their lack of effort.

They were all one of the Four Great Families. Why was she the one being bullied?

“You can’t even hold onto Gu Chen, and you bla the family? Is this all you’re capable of?” Old Mr. Xu sneered. “The Xu Family won’t allow such a person to be the heir. Even if you’re my only direct granddaughter, the Xu Family has other branches.”

With these words, Mrs. Xu imdiately hugged her daughter. “Dad, Xu Wen is your granddaughter, you can’t…”

She couldn’t finish. Old Mr. Xu’s words were law. If he decided that Xu Wen wouldn’t inherit, she wouldn’t have any chance. If the other branches got wind of this, it would cause an uproar.

“Hmph, you will get engaged to Gu Zhuo and stop thinking about anything else. The Xu Family can’t have a scandal. If it affects the stock market, you won’t be the Xu Family’s eldest daughter!” Old Mr. Xu turned and slamd the door, leaving Xu Wen and her mother alone.

“No, I won’t marry Gu Zhuo. Gu Chen is the heir to the Gu Family!” Xu Wen clung to her mother, knowing only she would help her.

But Mrs. Xu’s eyes turned harsh. “Whoever you marry will be the heir to the Gu Family. Don’t defy your grandfather. He doesn’t have many days left. The Xu Family will be yours in the end.”

Looking at her mother, Xu Wen realized she had never truly understood her.

The door to the lounge was knocked, and Xia Yu’s voice ca through, “Mrs. Xu, Old Mr. Xu sent to check on Miss Xu. May I co in?”

Hearing his voice, Xu Wen shuddered involuntarily. It’s over. Everything is over.
