Chapter 429: A Joke
Gu Changming was full of anger and had nowhere to vent, and he didn't know who to vent to, how could he think that now Gu Lingsi would blame him in turn?
For a moment, Gu Changming even had a strong sense of remorse!
It's just that he quickly told himself-
No, Gu Lingsi is his sister, and it is natural for him to think about her as an elder brother, but this incident accidentally happened.
So Gu Changming took a deep breath and chose to go to the corner, avoiding talking to Gu Lingsi.
Gu Lingsi was speechless.
Gu Qi glanced at her, as if he was looking at the disaster star, and his tone was cold: "You should be glad that Ning Shu is okay." Otherwise, your brother will be implicated by you, and sooner or later it will be counted on your head! β
After saying that, he strode away.
Gu Lingsi stretched out his arm to support the wall, slowly squatted down, buried his face in his arm, and didn't get up for a long time.
Ning Shu was injured to this point, and when he entered the operating room, it was naturally impossible to participate in the engagement ceremony again.
It stands to reason that the engagement ceremony should be cancelled.
But Old Man Ning sent news that the engagement ceremony was held as scheduled.
The Gu family did not notice the slightest joy at this, but panicked, and always felt that Old Man Ning's arrangement was unpredictable.
Gu Qi, Gu Changming, and Gu Lingsi, the three insiders, put aside Wei Yin and had a brief discussion at home-
Gu Changming thought naΓ―vely: "Could it be that Old Man Ning didn't plan to pursue this matter?" After all, we want to become in-laws, and it is not good for the reputation of both families to spread it, in order to safeguard the interests of the Ning family, so the old man Ning is generous, maybe he chooses to let it go gently? β
What Gu Changming is most worried about is that the Ning family will call the police, which will make the faces of both sides ugly, not to mention, even he may be imprisoned, and the Ning family's forces can do it to this extent!
Gu Qi glanced at him and punctured this naΓ―ve fantasy: "Old man Ning is generous? What are you kidding? That old fox can swallow people without even blinking, will he let us go? β
After a pause, he asked Gu Lingsi, who lowered his head quietly, "You didn't see Ning Shu when you went to the hospital this morning?" β
Gu Lingsi hummed, and his fingers were stirred together: "The bodyguard at the door of the ward said that Ning Shu needs to recuperate and can't see people, and the doctor and the old man mean this." β
Gu Qi's eyebrows wrinkled due to irritability: "Ning Shu's situation can still be at the engagement ceremony tomorrow...... ......"
Gu Changming and Gu Lingsi looked at the same time.
"What are you three talking about?"
Wei Yin stepped forward in high heels, and the assistant's hands behind him were full of shopping bags.
Wei Yin asked them casually, then turned around and instructed the assistant to send the shopping bags to the cloakroom upstairs, and the degree of concern for new clothes and bags was far greater than the importance of the topic that Gu Qi and the three of them were talking about.
Gu Qi fooled around casually, and asked Wei Yin what he had bought casually.
Wei Yin gestured to his newly made diamond manicure: "Of course it's the clothes I want to wear tomorrow, I'm not satisfied with the set I ordered before, hmph, since Ning Shu won't come back this time, then I definitely can't be robbed of the limelight by anyone!" β
completely forgot that the real protagonist of tomorrow's engagement ceremony was Gu Lingsi.
Gu Qi raised his eyebrows: "Ning Shu won't come tomorrow?" β
Gu Changming and Gu Lingsi looked at Wei Yin together.
Weiin: "Don't you know? The news has spread, saying that there was a conflict in the itinerary, and Ning Shu's parents will not be present. I said, Lao Gu, how did you communicate with the Ning family? Even if it's just a simple engagement ceremony, how can the man's parents not be there? Lingsi hasn't seen them yet, has he? The Ning family is really educated, and I don't know what you are for, you have to rush to marry your daughter, but people are stepping on the face of the Gu family to the ground! β
Wei Yin was not against Ning Gu's marriage, and she was happy at first.
But slowly, when the Ning family showed their true attitude, they did not attach as much importance to this marriage as they imagined, not only her, as the party concerned, but also those well-informed people in the circle noticed it, and they all watched her jokes behind her back.
With an arrogant temperament like Wei Yin, how could he swallow his breath easily?
Not long ago, she had a big quarrel with Gu Qi, and she willfully said that she wanted to cancel Ning Gu's marriage contract, and she didn't want to continue to lose face.
How could Gu Qi agree? Of course, it was a strong rejection of Weiyin's opinion.
Until now, Wei Yin is extremely weird when he talks about it.
Gu Qi's face was extremely ugly.
Gu Changming gritted his teeth: "Ning Shu's parents are not present?" Most of that Ning Shu is also ......"
Gu Qi snorted coldly: "Then do you still need to think about it?" β
Of course Ning Shu won't come!
I'm afraid that not only Ning Shu, but also the main members of the Ning family will not attend!
This is the purpose of Old Man Ning - even if he can't tell the truth and hold Gu Changming accountable for the sake of the face of the two families, he will not let it go gently, but will trample the Gu family's face into the mud!
If you are engaged, what about marriage? One step low, one step lower, when the outside world has the impression of this marriage, it will no longer be a marriage, but the Gu family takes the initiative to stammer, and the Ning family reluctantly accepts it!
Between the two, the benefits that the Gu family can obtain are very different!
Old Man Ning's move was to make them take a slap, and he had to say thank you with a smile!
Gu Qi is the head of the family, and he is so annoyed at the moment!
Gu Changming blushed: "Then do we still want to continue this engagement?" β
Gu Qi: "Otherwise? Dissolution of marriage? The Ning family just has a reason to hold you accountable! β
Gu Changming, who seemed to have been punched, was speechless for a moment.
Wei Yin didn't understand: "What are you talking about?" What is held accountable? β
Gu Qi was reluctant to tell her that Wei Yin was nitpicky, and after learning the truth, he might not know what would happen.
"Changming and Ning Shu have had a bit of a conflict recently, isn't this an engagement imminent, I'm afraid there will be any impact."
"Ning Shu is the one who wants to be Changming's brother-in-law, why don't you know how to let go?"
Wei Yin pouted dissatisfied, not suspicious.
Gu Qi tugged at the corners of his mouth, and didn't say a word.
Finally, he turned his head to look at Gu Lingsi.
Needless to say, Gu Lingsi already understood what he meant.
"I know that the engagement ceremony will take place as usual."
Such an engagement ceremony in which the man's family is collectively absent can be expected to be so embarrassing.
And the most embarrassing thing in this is undoubtedly Gu Lingsi.
But.
Although Gu Lingsi had already made sufficient mental preparations, when the ceremony was held the next day, he still felt that time was difficult.
Those people looked at her funny eyes, and they were all looking at her jokes!
For a moment, Gu Ling thought about the Chongxi bride who married the rooster in the script......
Never mind.
Gu Lingsi comforted himself repeatedly.
As long as today's difficulties pass, there will be more people stammering her in the future, who cares about today?
Gu Lingsi didn't know that the engagement ceremony was held at the same time-
Ning Shu opened his eyes in the ward, remorse and despair rolled in his eyes, and his soul changed silently.
