Chapter 289: A Blind Date with Zhan Yanxun
Chapter 289: A Blind Date with Zhan Yanxun
Gu Xuanwu felt that Jiang Qianhui was better; she was calm, composed, meticulous, and capable, which complemented her son perfectly.
"Uncle, I am a daughter of the Su family. What do I lack compared to her? Why don't you, Aunt, and Brother Xunjing love me anymore? You promised that I could marry Brother Xunjing when I grew up. How could you treat me like this?"
Yang Huirong then realized that this was Su Mengyu, the daughter of the Su family in Shangjing. Many wealthy families in Country A now wanted to form marriage alliances with the Su family of Shangjing.
But the Gu family actually refused, and instead took great care of her daughter, Sui Sui.
Although she thought her own daughter was the best, the daughter of the Shang Jingsu family seemed to have better conditions than her daughter.
Jiang Qianhui also noticed that her mother was looking at her with an almost resentful look in her eyes. What did that mean? Did she think she wasn't good enough for her?
This isn't about whether they're a good match or not, okay? The key point is that she and Gu Xunjing are only in a contractual relationship. Although she doesn't know Su Mengyu well, her feelings for Gu Xunjing are genuine, and she doesn't want to become a stumbling block in someone else's life.
Jiang Qianhui said, "Ms. Su, please don't get excited. Congratulations on winning the international beauty pageant. I think you must really want to share your honor with the Gu family. We apologize for disturbing you. We'll leave now, and you can celebrate your victory to your heart's content."
Jiang Qianhui has absolutely no interest in love or competing for a man now.
In her previous life, she loved a man with her life but ultimately failed to win him over, and even caused her family to be destroyed.
I will never do something like stealing a man from someone else again in my life.
Gu Xunjing quickly stepped forward to stop her, saying, "Sui Sui, don't go. If she wants to celebrate, I'll have someone send her back to her Su family home right now."
Su Mengyu stopped and angrily pointed at Jiang Qianhui, saying, "I thought you knew you were inferior to me and would be sensible enough to leave. But I didn't expect you to be playing hard to get, you green tea."
Jiang Qianhui never imagined that one day she would be called a "green tea b*tch".
At this moment, Gu Xuanwu made a phone call with a cold face and said, "Su Shitian, you don't need to send anyone over. I'll just send him back to you!"
Su Mengyu was utterly devastated and cried out in despair.
"Uncle, I don't want to go back ...."
“You didn’t heed my warning at all, and you even went further. I’m sorry, the Gu family is a bit biased; we can’t stand seeing our own people insulted. You should go back; otherwise, I’m afraid I won’t be able to explain it to your father.”
Su Mengyu was so angry that her face turned green. This woman was just a divorced woman. What right did she have to take her place?
She must have drugged the Gu family; she absolutely cannot let her succeed.
At Gu Xuanwu's signal, the Gu family's bodyguards were about to take Su Mengyu back.
Su Mengyu struggled: "I'm not going back to the capital. I still have things to do in Xiangcheng! Uncle, I'm not going back to the capital."
"If you're not going back to the capital, what are you doing staying in Xiangcheng?"
"I...I'm going on a blind date."
Hearing that Su Mengyu wanted to go on blind dates, the Gu family breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Su Mengyu was extremely popular in high society, with many prominent figures lining up to go on blind dates with her. The wealthy families of Xiangcheng were no exception. If she had come to her senses and wanted to stay and go on blind dates, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
"I'm going on a blind date with Zhan Yanxun."
Everyone present was shocked to hear Su Mengyu's words.
Su Mengyu is going on a blind date, and she's actually going on a blind date with Zhan Yanxun.
Feeling that all eyes were on her, Su Mengyu finally revealed a smug smile.
"The old lady of the Zhan family has been contacting me and trying to set me up with Zhan Yanxun, but I have refused. But now I have changed my mind. Since she can steal my Xunjing brother away, then I will marry her ex-husband. I heard that she never won her ex-husband's heart from beginning to end."
Jiang Qianhui did not expect that Xie Qingyi would arrange a blind date for Zhan Yanxun so quickly, and that the person she chose was Su Mengyu.
However, this has nothing to do with her anymore.
Jiang Qianhui remained calm, but Su Mengyu stared intently at her.
Li Wanyin frowned and said, "Mengyu, don't be so naive. Zhan Yanxun is no good person, his mother is no pushover either, and there's also his scheming sister-in-law. This marriage seems so oppressive. You mustn't act impulsively."
"Auntie Wan, you finally care about me again. I thought you didn't love me anymore and only cared about that divorced woman."
Su Mengyu gave Jiang Qianhui a provocative look, as if to say: "See? They get so nervous about me the moment I mention I'm going on a blind date. You can't compare to me after all."
How could Jiang Qianhui not see through Su Mengyu's thoughts? Her eyes were frank; Su Mengyu was truly naive.
Looking at Su Mengyu's arrogant face, Li Wanyin said, "It's not impossible for you to go on a blind date with Zhan Yanxun, but you should inform your parents first."
After all, the Su family's daughter is under the care of the Su family. As long as her parents are informed, it is considered that their obligations have been fulfilled.
Hearing Li Wanyin's words, Su Mengyu knew that they no longer cared about her at all.
She said angrily, "Then there's no need for you to worry, Uncle and Aunt. I'm not a child anymore, I can make my own decisions."
After saying that, Su Mengyu stormed off.
Gu Xuanwu: "This Su Mengyu, after all these years, still has the mentality of a child, she never grows up."
Li Wanyin: "The Su family only has this one daughter left, so naturally they cherish her very much."
Yang Huirong asked in confusion, "I seem to have heard that the Su family in the capital once had a boy who went missing when he was a child, and they have been searching for him all these years, but they still haven't found him."
"I heard there's been a lead recently. The jade pendant that the child used to wear has reappeared on the market. They're currently trying to find out where it came from, and hopefully they can find that child."
Gu Xunjing said, "I do have some impression of that child. He used to fight with me all the time when we were little, and he would cry when he couldn't win."
Li Wanyin: "Our two families used to play together a lot. You and that boy were indeed always fighting."
Gu Xunjing frowned, deep in thought: "I can't remember what he looks like now, but that bad temper is quite similar to someone I recently met. But thinking about it, it probably isn't him."
Jiang Qianhui remembered that in her previous life, shortly after the jade pendant was discovered, the Shu family of the capital announced that they had found their long-lost heir. She didn't want to provide any more clues, otherwise she wouldn't be able to explain how she knew his true identity. She couldn't very well say she was reborn, could she?
Li Wanyin: "They've found the jade pendant? After searching for so many years, we finally have a clue. I'm so happy for them."
Gu Xuanwu: "I believe we'll find it soon."
