Xu Weibei Makes His Move

"No, didn't you previously support my reconciliation with the Marquis? How could you change your mind so easily?" Gu Wanning snorted.

"If Master disagrees, he must have his reasons." Er Ya blind admiration, "Besides, I've never been married before, so I don't know anything about those things between husband and wife..."

But since the old man said it's important, then it must be important.

Gu Wanning: "..."

She didn't know, but she felt it probably wasn't that important.

Because the thought of being with Xu Weibei already makes her quite happy, there's no need to add anything unnecessary.

Who knows if a couple's sex life is harmonious or not!

It's so much better not to have Gu Wanqing and quiet life; then I won't have to worry about having children causing changes in my marital relationship, etc...

Oh my god, she can't think about it any further, or she'll pack up and go find Xu Weibei.

The matter of being proposed to has been ongoing ever since Gu Wanning's divorce.

There was nothing she could do; her father and brothers were too successful, and she felt helpless.

She didn't expect that the Zheng family, having failed in their attempt, would resort to spreading false rumors.

"We didn't take shelter from the rain under their eaves that day, and the Zheng family is so shameless!" Er Ya said indignantly, wishing she could roll up her sleeves and go out to fight the Zheng family right away.

Although Gu Wanning was angry, she calmed down after a while.

She calmly set up her vegetable rack, saying, "I'm like a big piece of fat meat right now, everyone wants to have their eyes on me. After all, many people want something for nothing, thinking that marrying me is like getting involved with the Gu family. This whole thing happened a little later than I expected!"

However, their shamelessness exceeded her expectations.

She was indeed too kind, treating everyone as a human being, and that was her mistake.

"No, young lady, you should go find the master!" Er Ya said angrily. "Have the master severely impeach Zheng Jian, and by the way, impeach the entire Zheng Duke's Residence as well. Like father, like son. I think their household must be full of filth and no good people!"

In this light, Fang Tingxiu's mother was quite farsighted.

She forbade Fang Tingxiu from associating with her maternal family, presumably because she had seen through the disgusting nature of the Zheng Duke's Residence.

Gu Wanning replied, "My older brother is busy. This is just a small matter; it'll all disappear soon."

She didn't want to trouble her father and brothers.

They are people who do great things.

Moreover, even if it really comes to the point of filing a lawsuit, Gu Wanning intends to do it herself, rather than letting her father and brothers engage in heated debates with others in court over private matters.

What does the Emperor think?

Gu Wanning did not want to tarnish her father and brothers' reputation with the Emperor.

She always maintained a distant politeness towards the Gu family.

Moreover, the best way to deal with being falsely accused is to let it go.

The more things escalate, the more likely she is to be hurt in the end.

Therefore, Gu Wanning decided to ignore it.

Of course, to some extent this is also a form of self-deception.

There is really no better solution.

Could we possibly kill Zheng Jian?

Gu Wanning knew that was impossible.

Xu Weibei: Okay.

When Gu Anqi arrived, Gu Wanning thought it was Er Ya who had come to see him, and couldn't help but look at Er Ya.

Er Ya waved her hands repeatedly, "Miss, it wasn't me, I didn't go looking for the master."

A fleeting look of pain flashed in Gu Anqi's eyes upon hearing this.

Although he always knew that his sister was estranged from them, she usually chatted and laughed with him and was close to Zhi Nu, which always gave him the illusion that his sister had reconciled with the family.

When problems arise, my younger sister still wants to solve them herself and not trouble her family.

Gu Anqi knew it was difficult to make amends, but he wanted to do his best to do so, and he felt distressed about it every time.

"I understand about this," Gu Anqi said, his calm and collected nature preventing him from making any promises before things were settled. "Don't worry, your brother will definitely get you an explanation."

Gu Wanning laughed and said, "They're just clowns, big brother, don't bother with them. Dealing with these kinds of people isn't satisfying, but being annoyed by them can be annoying for a long time. After all, they're the Duke's Residence, so let it go."

She planned to teach Zheng Jian a lesson herself.

Isn't it because he likes her, but wants a marriage alliance?

Come out and meet us.

We'll find a few thugs, throw him into a latrine, and give him a good brainwashing!

"So what if it's the Duke's Residence?" Gu Anqi sneered. "If the Duke's Residence can't be touched, then let's just make sure they can't become the Duke's Residence."

Gu Wanning: "!"

Wow, that guy is so handsome!

It seemed like she was finally understanding why domineering CEOs were so captivating to women.

With a smirk and a wicked grin, he said, "It's getting cold; the Wang family is going to go bankrupt."

This damn charm is irresistible!

But that's a great idea!

"Big brother, is that convenient?" Gu Wanning asked, feigning nonchalance, though inwardly she was already nodding in agreement with the suggestion.

"There's nothing inconvenient about it. It's just that if it flares up right now, it'll be quite noticeable, so please be patient and wait a month or so before we talk about it again."

"Isn't it actually quite obvious?" Gu Wanning asked guiltily.

"We just need to save face for the Emperor, not directly humiliate him. If people don't know what we're doing, how can we warn others?"

Gu Wanning clapped her hands.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, big brother."

Principles are something that need to be flexible about.

She had initially thought it best not to trouble others, but since her older brother's suggestion was clearly more satisfying and a permanent solution, she shamelessly accepted it.

Gu Anqi breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Thankfully, my sister didn't refuse.

This is what they owe their sister, and as long as there is still a chance to make it up to her, there will be plenty of time in the future.

Er Ya stood there grinning foolishly.

Sure enough, it takes the old man to step in!

Gu Anqi then started talking about Zhi Nu again.
