Chapter 299 Ungrateful Wolf
Mr. Hu laughed at Hu Shan's innocent tone.
Why would the Chang family refuse a marriage proposal if they didn't do anything wrong?
The marriage was already agreed upon, but now the other party absolutely refuses to agree.
Who is it?
Hu's mother stood up, walked to Hu's father's side, and asked in a low voice.
Mr. Hu turned his head and smiled at Mrs. Hu, saying gently, "It's Xiaoshan."
When Hu's mother heard it was her daughter calling, the smile on her face faded.
He said "Oh" and turned to leave.
It wasn't that she was heartless; it was that she realized Hu Shan was an ingrate.
She carried her for ten months and risked her life to give birth to her, and then cherished and pampered her as she grew up.
It's one thing to not go home for more than two years because of Cheng Bo, an outsider.
Throughout the year, including holidays, she never called to inquire about her and her husband's health.
The miscarriage led to her divorce from Cheng Bo, and she even harbored resentment towards her family.
Seeing that his mother was safely seated on the sofa, Mr. Hu's father...
Turning to Hu Shan, he continued, "Since you're not satisfied with the marriage partner your family has arranged for you, you can find one yourself from now on!"
"Your mother and I will no longer interfere in your love life, so you won't think that we, as your parents, have gained a lot from your marriage."
The oblivious Hu Shan didn't realize that her father had given up on her.
I thought he was angry because he was upset about his marriage to someone from a different family.
Thinking of this, Hu Shan cautiously glanced at Secretary Chang, who had no expression on his face.
He covered the microphone and whispered, "Dad, who said I'm not satisfied?"
"I am very satisfied."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Hu's hand gripping the phone clenched so tightly that the veins bulged.
Suppressing his anger, he growled in a low voice, "Are you satisfied? You'll go to Xiao Chang and tell him you won't be happy after marrying him?"
"Are you satisfied? Are you out of your mind, running around spouting nonsense in front of outsiders?"
How did I teach you from a young age?
"Didn't I tell you not to make any definitive statements or say anything too definitive until the very last moment?"
"Didn't I tell you, 'When pedestrians talk on the street, there are turtles in the grass.' Never say anything that is not good for yourself or others to a second person!"
"And what did you say? You bragged to everyone in the tenement that you're not divorced yet, but there are already men a thousand times, ten thousand times better than Cheng Bo waiting to marry you!"
Mr. Hu was so angry that he trembled all over, and his mouth spewed out all his dissatisfaction with Hu Shan like a machine gun.
Seeing that Hu's father was furious, Hu's mother immediately stood up and went to his side.
She patted his back reassuringly, saying, "At your age, do you still think you're like a young person?"
"What she wants to do is none of our business!"
"If you're really angry, we'll publish a notice in the newspaper tomorrow to sever ties with her!"
Hu Shan listened as her mother spoke cold words in a gentle tone.
A strong sense of unease welled up inside her, and her voice trembled as she asked, "Dad, what does Mom mean?"
Secretary Chang glanced up at Hu Shan, whose face was deathly pale, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.
Taking advantage of being an only child, she constantly trampled on her parents' feelings for her.
Did they really think that Hu's parents would compromise for a disobedient daughter?
Having enjoyed most of the family's resources, one must also shoulder the responsibilities of the family.
If you can't shoulder the responsibilities of the family, don't blame your parents for finding other ways.
Ignoring the presence of Secretary Chang, Hu Shan choked up and said, "Dad, tell Uncle Chang that I agree to the marriage."
Mr. Hu on the other end of the phone was so angry at Hu Shan's stupidity that he almost died.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think the Chang family will still want you after what you've done?"
"With your qualifications, you could have found a capable man, not just in the provincial capital, but even in Beijing."
"You insisted on getting married behind our backs."
"If they get married behind our backs and have good taste, we'll just have to accept it."
"But you're not having a good marriage. After the divorce, your family can arrange a suitable marriage for you!"
"But what about you? What did you do?"
"You look down on this person and that person. Don't forget, you're divorced."
"You look down on people who are getting married for the first time!"
"Forget it, I won't say anything more. From now on, your mother and I won't interfere in your affairs anymore."
"You can marry whoever you want, but don't come and cause trouble for us."
After saying that, he hung up the phone without waiting for Hu Shan's reaction.
Hu Shan stared blankly at the phone that had already been disconnected.
Thinking about the attitudes of Mr. and Mrs. Hu, I felt a wave of panic.
She was genuinely scared, afraid that her family wouldn't take care of her.
Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably as she looked up at Secretary Chang through teary eyes.
She grabbed Secretary Chang's arm as if it were a lifeline and asked cautiously, "Didn't you want to marry me?"
"I agree. Shall we go get our marriage certificate tomorrow?"
Secretary Chang looked at Hu Shan, who was crying her eyes out, without showing the slightest emotion.
He coldly refused, saying, "Officer Hu, you are very good. I am not good enough for you."
"Someone as selfish and power-hungry as me is unworthy of the pure and innocent Director Hu!"
Hu Shan looked at Secretary Chang's indifferent expression and listened to his sarcastic words.
The light in her eyes dimmed, and she slowly released her grip on his arm.
I know that if she continues to pester me, she will only humiliate herself.
She raised her hand to wipe her cheek, then turned and staggered away.
at the same time
When Gu Yihan returned home, she saw Li Yajing standing at the entrance of the courtyard.
She asked in surprise, "Sister Ya Jing, what brings you here?"
When Li Yaqing saw Gu Yihan, her eyes lit up slightly, and she said with a smile, "Aren't you surprised to see me?"
Gu Yihan took out her key and unlocked the door while saying, "Were you frightened? Did you come here by yourself?"
Li Yaqing shrugged and followed Gu Yihan into the courtyard, scoffing, "How could that be? My brother came with me."
Gu Yihan walked towards the kitchen, intending to start cooking the rice first. "Sister Ya Jing, you'll be eating at my house tonight."
Sister Ya Jing quickly grabbed Gu Yihan's arm and said, "No need, I came here to ask you about someone!"
Gu Yihan stopped and turned to look at Sister Ya Jing, asking, "Who are you asking about?"
"It's Secretary Chang from your factory!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yihan took Ya Jing's hand and led her into the living room, inviting her to sit on the sofa.
"What's your relationship with Secretary Chang?"
Sister Ya Jing sighed helplessly and said, "My blind date!"
“It’s my grandfather. He gets annoyed whenever he sees me. He thinks I’m in his way at home, so he found me a blind date among his comrades.”
Gu Yihan looked at Ya Jing, who was complaining but had a big smile on her face, and it was clear that her grandfather doted on her very much.
She smiled and said, "Sister Ya Jing, I'm really sorry."
"I don't know Secretary Chang very well, I only know him, but I don't have a girlfriend."
Upon hearing this, Sister Ya Jing couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Xiao Han, of course I know he doesn't have a girlfriend."
"If he has a girlfriend, would I still need to use this service?"
Ya Jing glanced at the time, stood up and said, "Alright, I won't disturb you while you're cooking. I'm going to my cousin's house first."
"I'll come visit you after I'm done with my blind date."
Gu Yihan smiled and nodded, then saw her to the door.
