Chapter 266: I Canât Marry Her
Chapter 266: I Cannot Marry Her
Though Yang Meiyin thought of having Ye Rushui marry Gu Dongxing for the purpose of leaving him without heirs,
Ye Rushui, being the daughter of Ye Shengâs current wife, was deeply favored and could always lend some support to Gu Dongxing.
If, however, Gu Dongxing were forced to marry Ye Qing, whose body was already disabled, and it was even rumored that her privates had been utterly ravaged by Sun Erliang, making a happy marital life impossible and offering no support, wouldnât that serve the purpose even better?
Without hesitation, Yang Meiyin spoke to Ye Sheng, "If Dongxing is willing to marry Ye Qing, please just agree to it."
Gu Dongxing immediately expressed his dissatisfaction, "Who said I want to marry Ye Qing?"
Gu Dongxingâs refusal to marry the initially prearranged Ye Rushui certainly did not mean he intended to marry Ye Qing.
In his heart, Ye Qing was like a little sister, someone he never considered as a potential spouse for himself.
Whatâs more, Jiang Mengyu had already taken up residence in his heart; how could he possibly make room for another woman?
Gu Dongxing would absolutely never agree to marry a Ye Family girl.
First of all, his own heart would not agree to it. The only one he loved was Mengyu. Whether it was Ye Rushui or Ye Qing, he would not want either.
Second, as resolute as Mengyuâs words seemed, he could tell that her harsh words were only meant to push him to resolve the matter of their betrothal; she wouldnât really agree to let him leave her.
Third, if he truly succumbed to Old Fox Yeâs schemes and married his daughter, Cheng Jiuhe, who would be furious with anything involving his sister, would certainly break ties with him.
Though he and Cheng Jiuhe appeared to be brothers, in reality, Cheng Jiuhe was also the master who taught him the Cultivation Technique. Gu had developed a friendship with Cheng even during the year he lived with his father. During that time, Cheng, also heavily tormented by his stepmother, secretly taught him the familyâs Cultivation Technique.
However, he did not want others to know that he had taught the familyâs technique to someone else, so he did not allow Gu Dongxing to acknowledge their master-disciple relationship, and he even called Gu Dongxing "Boss" at times.
But in his heart, Gu Dongxing regarded Cheng Jiuhe as his Master, and Cheng, both a friend and a Master, held significant weight in his heart.
Therefore, he would absolutely not give up on Mengyu to marry Ye Qing.
After reflecting, Gu Dongxing spoke to Ye Sheng, "Iâm sorry, I cannot marry your beloved daughter."
Ye Rushuiâs complexion shifted, "Youâre not still thinking about that Jiang Mengyu, are you? Are you really going to abandon us sisters and marry that country bumpkin?"
Gu Ming frowned, "What country bumpkin?"
Yang Meiyinâs eyes lit up and she looked at Gu Dongxing, "Dongxing, you actually got engaged to a country girl? Donât tell me it was your rural Mom who found her for you?"
When mentioning Gu Dongxingâs mother, her tone was laden with disdain.
Ye Rushui hastily added, "Sheâs a country girl who was sold by her foster parents to human traffickers and by accident, he rescued her. Then she left her foster parents behind, desperate to cling to him and demand that he take responsibility."
With these words, she painted Jiang Mengyu as an ungrateful girl who abandoned her foster parents who had raised her and aspired solely to secure a better status by clinging to Gu Dongxing.
Listening, Gu Mingâs frown deepened, "Dongxing, whatâs really going on?"
Gu Dongxing was unhappy because although Jiang Mengyu was still young, he had thought to wait until she was older and he was more powerful, capable of protecting her, before introducing her to the world.
He had not expected Ye Rushui to expose her beforehand.
Nevertheless, Mengyu was no ordinary person. Since she had been exposed, he simply decided not to hide the matter any longer.
"She is a very special girl. Although she is from the countryside, she possesses a pureness, kindness, and beauty that city girls canât compare with. I do indeed plan to marry her when she grows up." He looked at Gu Ming, "I hope to have your blessing."
Gu Ming was surprised, "Grow up? How old is she?"
Gu Dongxing hesitated for a moment, then said, "She is sixteen years old this year."
