Chapter 573: I don't like Zhan Yanxun!
Xie Qingyi smiled brightly and said, "That's right, Miss Su, you just need to be a happy bride. Don't worry, I will give you an unprecedented and grandest wedding that will make everyone envious."
Gu Xuanwu and Li Wanyin were both furious; this was a provocation against the Gu family!
Did he think only the Zhan family could afford such a grand wedding? That's hilarious.
Su Mengyu looked at Zhan Yanxun, only to see that Zhan Yanxun did not speak but looked at Jiang Qianhui with burning eyes, not even daring to blink.
Zhan Yanxun looked at Jiang Qianhui. Now that his mother was discussing marriage for him again, was she really still unmoved?
But Jiang Qianhui remained unmoved.
At this moment, Jiang Qianhui was filled with anger, anger that the Zhan Group could not go bankrupt today.
She didn't care at all who Zhan Yanxun married!
Su Mengyu glanced at Jiang Qianhui, then at Zhan Yanxun.
They were both indifferent to the current farce. She understood their thoughts.
This love triangle is already crowded enough; there's no way she can get in, and she doesn't want to.
Su Mengyu composed herself, then looked at Xie Qingyi with clear eyes and said, "Madam Zhan, I'm so sorry, you've misunderstood. I don't want to marry Zhan Yanxun. Because the person I want to marry is... Brother Xunjing!"
Su Mengyu's words were like an atomic bomb, exploding on the spot!
Su Mengyu said firmly, "I like Brother Xunjing, isn't that something everyone knows?"
What? Su Mengyu also likes Gu Xunjing?
The Gu family members, who had just been indifferent to Xie Qingyi's discussion of marriage with the Su family, all turned to look at Su Mengyu, their faces showing shock and embarrassment.
Jiang Qianhui also looked at Su Mengyu. Her eyes, which had been so cold they could have chilled to the bone just moments before, now held a hint of worry.
Zhan Yanxun looked at Jiang Qianhui, who had been indifferent just moments before, but now, upon hearing Su Mengyu say that the person she liked was Gu Xunjing, his gaze immediately changed.
It's clear that she really cares about Gu Xunjing.
He didn't care when they were discussing his marriage with Su Mengyu, but now that Su Mengyu has only said she likes Gu Xunjing, she cares about it so much.
Su Mengyu hadn't expected her words to be so damaging; now everyone was watching her.
Everyone looked at her with different expressions, but their eyes were all staring at her without any attempt to hide it, making her extremely embarrassed.
Should she say something?
However, with everyone staring at her like that, she felt like she could barely breathe and dared not speak.
At this moment, Su Shitian broke the silence first.
He said angrily, "Su Mengyu, what nonsense are you talking about? How could the person you like still be Gu Xunjing? The person you like is clearly Zhan Yanxun!"
Ma Zhongling was extremely anxious. How could her daughter be so confused? Gu Xunjing liked Jiang Qianhui, and she had long known that it was impossible for her and Gu Xunjing to be together.
Didn't she give up a long time ago? Why is she still saying she likes Gu Xunjing now?
Moreover, Zhan Yanxun is currently riding high, completely overshadowing Gu Xunjing.
The old lady of the Zhan family also takes a liking to her and insists that Zhan Yanxun marry her. What's wrong with her? What's wrong with her brain to say something like that?
Ma Zhongling wanted to scold her daughter, but given the current situation, she had to keep her daughter's marriage to Zhan Yanxun afloat.
So, while holding Su Mengyu's hand, Ma Zhongling forced a cheerful tone and said, "Daughter, you're saying this on purpose to make Zhan Yanxun jealous, aren't you? You young people these days like to play hard to get, like to make the other person jealous and angry. But Zhan Yanxun dominates the entire business empire; he's not an ordinary young man. He doesn't care for those childish tricks. Only mature and stable women are his good match. So put away your little thoughts and emotions. You must be mature and stable, and stop saying childish things."
Xie Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. So that's how it is! She was terrified. Otherwise, how could her son be inferior to Gu Xunjing?
How could Su Mengyu like Gu Xunjing but not her son Zhan Yanxun?
Xie Qingyi laughed with relief, then looked at Ma Zhongling and said, "Mrs. Su, it's alright. Young people have their own ideas these days. My son is good in every way, but he's career-oriented and doesn't know how to date. He needs a little stimulation. It would be good for Miss Su to teach him a thing or two, so that our married life will be more interesting in the future."
Ma Zhongling smiled awkwardly and said, "Madam Zhan, it's rare that you're so understanding of Xiaoyu's naiveté."
After finishing her sentence, Ma Zhongling said to Su Mengyu in a childish but serious tone, "Xiaoyu, we know what you're thinking. Don't act like a child anymore. Think before you speak, understand?"
Ma Zhongling was giving Su Mengyu a warning. Su Mengyu knew what her parents meant, but she really didn't want to put Zhan Yanxun in a difficult position, and she didn't want to be rejected by Zhan Yanxun to her face again.
That would really make her sad.
Ma Zhongling's explanation brought a sigh of relief to everyone.
However, Su Mengyu firmly stated again, "I'm not playing hard to get, nor am I trying to make Zhan Yanxun jealous. I really don't just want Zhan Yanxun!"
Su Mengyu's words were very firm, and her parents' expressions changed instantly!
Ma Zhongling was so angry she almost vomited blood. She had finally come up with an excuse to smooth things over, but her daughter refused to back down and insisted on sabotaging her!
Look at Xie Qingyi's face right now, it's as black as charcoal!
Ma Zhongling stepped forward and secretly pinched Su Mengyu's back, saying angrily but with restraint, "Su Mengyu, are you joking again? You don't like Zhan Yanxun, so why did you kneel down and beg me and your father for him when you thought the Zhan Group was going to go bankrupt? When have you ever begged anyone in your life?"
Su Mengyu was in excruciating pain when her mother pinched her like that, but she still endured it!
"Mom and Dad, you know that my best friend Annie was killed by the Black Knights. I begged you before to use the Gu family's influence to help Annie get revenge, but you couldn't do it."
Because the Black Riders are a deeply entrenched and evil international organization, our Gu family's power simply has no way to eradicate them.
But Zhan Yanxun did it. He eradicated the Black Riders and avenged all those who died unjustly in the Black Chess Society.
He is a hero, and I just can't bear to see a hero end up in such a miserable state. I knelt down for my best friend Annie, and also for myself.
Because he was my savior, and a life-saving debt should be repaid with boundless gratitude, let alone just a simple act of kneeling!
Su Mengyu's words were sincere and heartfelt, and everyone understood them at that moment.
So the reason she was so protective of Zhan Yanxun earlier was because he was helping her best friend hold Qiu, and also because he was her savior!
