Gu Youren frowned, remained silent for a moment before speaking: "Jingshen, didn't you even bother to tell us earlier about your marriage? How can you just get married without informing the other party?"
After hearing what Gu Youren said, Xusuli collapsed in her chair. It seemed that there was no turning back on Jingshen's marriage; sweet little Xiao Jiao would forever remain aunts and aunts.
Jingshen had anticipated this reaction from his family and spoke calmly: "I did consider it unwise not to have told you earlier, but she is really great, and I will bring her here for everyone to meet. The wedding and all the necessary formalities will be made up."
Seeing Jingshen like this, Xusuli was tempted to faint; she wanted to know who could make his usually calm son lose his reason.
"Who is she? What's her name?" Xusuli asked while controlling her emotions.
"She should be familiar to you all. She is the daughter of the man who saved my father in that fire," Jingshen's voice remained steady and firm; he wanted everyone to know about his resolve.
"So, it is her?" Gu Youren was shocked. He originally thought Jingshen's decision was too hasty but changed his mind when learning Su Xinyi's identity.
If not for the efforts of Su Xinyi's father, their family would have been destroyed, but in the end, they were saved at the cost of her father being severely injured and her mother passing away from grief. Only she remained.
Over the years, to repay this debt, the Gu family had secretly supported her; Jingshen had taken care of it all, and perhaps it was during this process that their feelings grew.
Upon learning Su Xinyi's identity, Xusuli's repulsion decreased, but she still couldn't accept that they were already married: "Jingshen, you can’t use marriage as a way to repay her."
"I am not doing this for any gratitude," he said with utmost certainty.
"Even if it’s not a matter of gratitude, Jingshen. You are the head of Yun Shen Group, and your marriage affects the entire company; Miss Su is not suitable for you." Xusuli tried to convince him in an attempt to make him reconsider.
Jingshen's brow furrowed slightly: "Then who do you think should marry me?"
He finally understood why his mother was so upset upon learning of his marriage—she believed that there were better options for him.
When asked, Xusuli suddenly felt guilty and avoided eye contact. "I believe the daughter of the Yuen family is the best choice."
"Yuenaijiao?" Jingshen had a cold tone in his voice.
"Yes, her. From every angle, she suits you well, and you know each other since childhood. I also like her very much, Jingshen, please reconsider…"
"No need to consider it anymore; I've told you before that there's no future between me and Yuenaijiao," Jingshen cut off Xusuli's words.
"Why are you so decisive? Maybe your feelings will change in the future. At least give her a chance; perhaps she is meant for you," Xusuli was still unwilling to give up.
