Entangled with My Ex's Uncle-Chapter 73 - Engagement Canceled

73: Chapter 73 Engagement Canceled

73 -73 Engagement Canceled

Fu Hanyan narrowed her eyes, “What do you mean by that?”

“Now that her identity is sensitive, you should stop favoring her so much, lest you stir up everyone’s dissatisfaction.”

“How is her identity sensitive?

I’m just making a friend, there aren’t so many formalities.”

Gu Qingyu said discontentedly, “You can make whatever friends you want, but Chi Yue is merely someone who has appraised something for you once.

Continuing to associate with her will devalue you.”

Fu Hanyan laughed in anger.

“Everyone is human, how does that devalue me?

Gu Qingyu, you can’t just target her because my brother gave her goose liver at dinner last time.

Whether her character is good or not, I have eyes to see.”

Gu Qingyu, his sore spot poked, struggled to maintain his composure.

He frowned, “Isn’t she just someone who helped you hide the truth?

You treat her well out of gratitude, trying to win her over, but don’t forget, there’s not only her appraisal firm here. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

The matter of your father having an illegitimate child, you may hide it for a while, but not forever.”

Fu Hanyan’s eyes widened.

She had never told Gu Qingyu about this matter; how did Gu Qingyu know?

Just as she was about to ask, the door to the lounge was suddenly flung open.

Xu Zhenwen and Fu Rongyin stood outside.

Xu Zhenwen’s gaze was blank, her facial expression stiff.

“Qingyu, is what you just said true?”

When Gu Qingyu saw the two people outside the door, his face instantly turned pale as paper.

“Auntie, listen to me, this matter…”

Xu Zhenwen cut her off, “I’m asking you, is what you said true or not!”

Gu Qingyu’s eyes were red, his lips trembling, yet he dared not speak.

Xu Zhenwen looked at Gu Qingyu, “Is what you said true?”

Fu Hanyan was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode, wishing she could tear Gu Qingyu apart.

Suppressing her anger, she said to Xu Zhenwen, “Mom, listen to my explanation about this matter…”

“Ah Yin, you speak.” Xu Zhenwen turned to Fu Rongyin.

Fu Rongyin knew about this matter.

The woman had pinned her child on him, and he knew best if he had done such a thing—so he had it investigated right away.

After the investigation concluded, he sent the woman away.

Now that the truth was exposed, naturally, Fu Rongyin would no longer conceal it.

Seeing Fu Rongyin’s silence, what more did Xu Zhenwen need to understand?

She turned pale, her body uncontrollably falling backward.

The siblings had a hard time calming her down and preventing her from getting too agitated.

Xu Zhenwen sighed and said, “Go find that woman and bring her back.

I will handle this.”

Fu Rongyin replied, “Okay.”

Xu Zhenwen then turned to the instigator beside her, “Qingyu, let’s forget about the engagement today, we’ll come and apologize another day.

Let’s call off this marriage.”

Gu Qingyu opened his eyes wide in shock, opening his mouth several times but failing to utter a word.

…

It was only half an hour later that Chi Yue and Nan Bingyu received the news of the engagement cancellation.

Nan Bingyu looked confused, “Everything was fine, why was it suddenly called off?”

Chi Yue was also unclear.

Someone nearby mentioned, “I heard it’s because Gu Qingyu said something he shouldn’t have, which caused Old Mrs.

Fu to faint.”

Chi Yue remained silent.

He had no idea what unthinkable things Gu Qingyu had said that even caused the imminent engagement ceremony to be canceled.

With no engagement to be held, the guests found it improper to stay any longer.

When Chi Yue returned home, she received gossip from Nan Bingyu that Gu Qingyu had come over to seek forgiveness, but Fu Rongyin treated her like a stranger.

Chi Yue didn’t have any particular opinion on the matter, but some people insisted on her giving one.

At night, Fu Rongyin came over.

Chi Yue stared at the man still in his formal attire, unable to speak for a long time.
