"General Gu, forced relationships are never sweet." Lin Xihe was determined to make things clear with Gu Qinghuai.

"What a coincidence, I don't like sweets at all." Gu Qinghuai said, seemingly unconcerned.

Lin Xihe: "......"

Lin Xihe was speechless, wondering to herself: What do you mean you don't like sweets? Is that what I meant...?

Since that's the case, you can't possibly tolerate your fiancée sleeping in the same bed with someone else, can you?

“I believe you. Since you know about my past with Doctor Ye, you must have also heard about my relationship with Ji Zhuo. Ji Zhuo stayed with me for two months.”

Lin Xihe didn't spell things out too clearly, but she figured Gu Qinghuai would understand the deeper meaning.

"Your mention of this matter has indeed reminded me. That Ji Zhuo dared to lay a finger on my people, so I should take action to retaliate, lest he think that I, Gu Qinghuai, am someone who can be bullied at will." Gu Qinghuai's words were clearly tinged with anger.

"Is that what I meant?! What I meant was that you can choose another beautiful woman to marry. Now I have no family background to rely on, no money to rely on, and no support from the outside world. It would be better for you to marry anyone than to marry me, wouldn't it?"

"I don't need to use marriage to gain any advantage."

"Your mother saw that my family was declining and came to break off the engagement. I really can't live with her because of her behavior. If I marry into your family, I will definitely disturb her day and night and make her lose her appetite." Lin Xihe was still trying her best to find an excuse.

“She is not my biological mother, and I have no affection for her. You can do whatever you want with her.”

Lin Xihe: "Uh..."

Why is this guy so stubborn? I need to keep trying!
