MTL - The Reborn Scholar Wants To Counterattack

Chapter 16 Engagement

"I never said that, you can't misinterpret me like this!" Gu Weimian said coldly.

The colder she is, the angrier Huo Yan becomes!

 Gu Weimian used both hands to push the man away, but her hand was suddenly pinched by the man and pressed against her chest.

Gu Weimian frowned. At that moment, the sharp pain in his chest made Gu Weimian tremble.

 Where did you hit when you fell down just now?

She wanted to withdraw her hand, but the man's strength was astonishing. He didn't give her any chance to take her hand back. Instead, he pressed it harder, and the heat in his palm spread through the sweater to the skin of her chest, causing a burning sensation.

The man leaned forward, getting closer to her, and brushed her ears with his dry thin lips: "Isn't this what I just said three days ago? How come you turned around and forgot about it before the wound of suicide healed?"

Gu Weimian was stunned, three days ago? suicide?

 She committed suicide three days ago? !

The memory that she had long forgotten in the corner was like an old photo. At this moment, the dust on it was wiped away by the man's words, and the memory became vivid.

 Yes, she committed suicide!

 Before getting engaged to Ao Qijun, the Huo family first made a request for engagement.

At that time, she had a bad relationship with Huo Yan, and she was crazy about Ao Qijun, so she staged a scene of committing suicide by cutting her wrists. It was just a pretense, but Gu Siyu tripped and the knife happened to hurt her. chest.

 Fortunately, the knife itself was just a fruit knife, and the wound was not deep. However, a lot of blood was really shed at that time. The scene was terrifying and alarmed Mr. Gu, who quickly gave up the idea of ​​marriage.

She sighed deeply. Mr. Gu had agreed to the high-status figure in the Huo family, but went back on his promise. For fear of offending the other party, he found the Ao family and pretended that she and Ao Qijun were engaged.

When explaining to the Huo family member, he only said that the youngest son and daughter had been engaged before, and it was arranged by Gu Weimian's parents before they had time to notify the old man.

At the same time, the Gu family also paid a large sum of money as a gift and assigned Gu Siyu to Huo Yan.

Even so, the Huo family and the Gu family still kept their distance, and it was obvious that they were still very offended.

Think about it, my grandson has suffered an accident, and I feel sad. When marrying a family like the Gu family, I think highly of the other person, but the other person despises my grandson. Isn't this a stab at someone's pain?

Gu Weimian frowned slightly. If she remembered correctly, Mr. Huo would come to the door tomorrow, and he would also explain to him that she and Ao Qijun were engaged!

If she doesn't stop it, the Gu family will offend the Huo family.

 If she stops...she will really get engaged to Ao Qijun!

Gu Weimian frowned in disgust. She really didn't want to have anything to do with Ao Qijun, let alone let him become her fiancé. She was afraid that she would be so disgusted that she wouldn't be able to eat!

 …

Gu Weimian slowly returned to his room and threw himself on the bed.

 The soft mattress supported her, and the silky brocade stretched across her skin, but her heart became harder and harder, like a piece of ice that could never melt.

On her lips, there was still a man's unique breath. She recalled it for a long time before she came up with an appropriate adjective in her mind, the taste of cold sea water, salty, astringent, and cold.

Gu Weimian's eyes seemed to be filled with stagnant water, unable to make even a single ripple...
