Although Gu Shuisheng agreed outwardly, he couldn’t help but feel indignant inside. After all, when young people get angry, they often resort to drowning their sorrows in alcohol. On the day before the wedding, he was still wandering the streets with a wine jug.
Gu Youyou happened to co across him while heading to Xiguang Residence. Seeing Gu Shuisheng’s hopeless look and the sll of alcohol on him, she couldn’t help but feel sympathy.
"Gu Shuisheng?"
Gu Shuisheng stopped and turned to look at Gu Youyou.
Gu Youyou looked at Gu Shuisheng, sighed softly at the wine jug in his hand, and said, "Why bother? Isn’t this self-inflicted? If you don’t want it, even as the new Top Scholar, the Zhang Pri Minister can’t force you to marry the young lady of the Zhang Family."
Gu Shuisheng, having drunk, looked a bit flushed.
Listening to Gu Youyou’s words, he was slightly taken aback, then sneered sarcastically and said, "What else can be done if not this? Watch Zhang Shiyu die?"
He didn’t mind Gu Youyou and Jin Zijin taking care of Zhang Shiyu, but how could he refuse the Zhang Pri Minister’s plea?
He let out a laugh and said, "You knew the water was poisoned; you could have chosen not to drink it. Why did you make Miss Zhang drink it?"
Gu Youyou was stupefied and regarded him as rely being drunk.
She coldly laughed and said, "She brought that upon herself, why shouldn’t I let her drink? She poisoned it herself, so naturally, she has to suffer the consequences."
"I know she brought it upon herself, but a woman’s reputation is so important. What you did ruined her," Gu Shuisheng said angrily.
Gu Youyou paused, then laughed at the irony.
She chuckled and said, "Oh, what I did ruined her, but did she think about ruining before doing it? Haha, of course, she thought about it, precisely because she knew doing this would ruin , that’s why she did it, isn’t it?"
"You..." Zhang Shuisheng seed to sober up a bit, looking at Gu Youyou’s angry expression, realizing he’d said sothing he shouldn’t have.
Gu Youyou continued, "Ha, should I let them bully repeatedly? Do you know when Zhang Shiyu first frad ? Do you know how many tis the Zhang father and daughter have provoked ? Precisely because I tolerated again and again, she dared to escalate. I’m not a saint, nor do I have the leisure to guard against thieves every day!"
After shouting, Gu Youyou left in a carefree manner.
She thought too much, such a person deserves to be ruined by the Zhang father and daughter in this life.
Initially, she considered him a victim, kindly said a few words to show sympathy, but he still sympathized with the culprit!
Who’s to bla if the culprit is pitiful?
For example, a murderer might seem pitiful when brought to justice, but without punishnt, how can the innocent victims he killed rest in peace?
The streets of West Street in Beijing were lively and festive; it was the day the Zhang Pri Minister’s daughter was to marry, and the entire street was bustling.
Before dawn, Zhang Shiyu was pulled up by several matrons, dressed, and had her bridal makeup applied.
The exquisite makeup masked Zhang Shiyu’s haggard face from the past few days. A woman is always exceptionally radiant on her wedding day.
The daughters of the Zhang Family were exceptionally beautiful, whether it was the eldest or the second Miss. The groom Gu Shuisheng was also talented and handso, a perfect match.
The bride looked at herself in the bronze mirror, but those beautiful eyes showed not the slightest vitality.
She, Zhang Shiyu, ultimately beca the woman no one wanted, and her father found her a beggar through coercion.
