Gu Zeyu was anxious to find Wen Yi, but when he saw Wen Ge crying so pitifully, he was immediately moved and hesitated to speak.
Taking the opportunity, Wen's mother pulled Wen Ge aside, "Wen Ge, don't say anymore. Maybe matters of the heart are illogical. Even though you are better than your sister in every way, you were still not chosen."
"Mom, I know, I will try my best to let go." Wen Ge wiped away her tears.
Gu Zeyu's expression suddenly became less resolute.
When this scene unfolded, Wen Yi was on the stairs and clearly heard her mother defending Wen Ge and saying that she was inferior to Wen Ge in every way.
Wen lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
Yes, her parents never mistreated her.
Especially in terms of material things, they never raised her properly, supported her education, it's just that... her parents didn't love her.
Therefore, even though Gu Zeyu, an outsider, knew what would happen to Wen Yi if she married into the Royal Garden, her parents felt that the Royal Garden was the best place for Wen Yi.
Wen Yi raised her chin, a fake smile on her face, and walked down the stairs.
Wen Ge was the first to spot Wen Yi, "Sister!"
She cried out, "Young Master Gu said he's coming to marry you, but people from Yuting Garden are coming to take you away soon. What should you do? What's your choice?"
"Madam, sir, the car from the Royal Garden has arrived to pick up Miss."
The butler hurriedly came in from outside.
The cars from Yutingyuan were parked side by side next to the cars from the Gu family. Luo Yi got out of his car and glanced at the Gu family's cars. His expression deepened when he saw the living room piled with gifts.
Luo Yi walked up to the Wen family and said, "Hello, I'm here on behalf of the Second Master to welcome the new Madam back to the Imperial Garden."
Gu Zeyu, who had been silent, suddenly turned around and faced Luo Yi, saying, "Hello, I am the eldest young master of the Gu family, and I am here to propose to the eldest daughter of the Wen family."
Luo Yi looked at Young Master Gu with a cold expression and a hint of mockery.
Instead of confronting Gu Zeyu directly, he turned his attention to the Wen family.
"Wen Yi, go ahead," Wen's mother said sternly.
It was obvious that Wen Yi had angered her. From the moment Wen Yi came downstairs until now, Wen's mother hadn't looked at Wen Yi once.
There was no room for discussion at this point, so Wen Yi was allowed to go with Luo Yi.
Otherwise, if Wen Yi doesn't leave, it will be Wen Ge who leaves.
Wen Yi knew this in his heart, so he didn't say anything and started walking towards Luo Yi.
Gu Zeyu suddenly reached out and grabbed Wen Yi's arm. "Think it over carefully."
Wen Yi turned around and looked at Gu Zeyu.
Looking at the current situation, Gu Zeyu lowered his voice and said to Wen Yi, "Wen Yi, now I can take you away immediately if you just say the word. Even if the Royal Garden can't do anything about it, I'll take you and elope with you."
Wen Yi's expression remained calm until she heard Gu Zeyu say the words "elope," at which point she showed a slight look of surprise.
After all, this doesn't sound like something the eldest son of the Gu family would say.
"Is Young Master Gu really going to take me away?" Wen Yi asked. "Young Master Gu knows that if you take me away right under the nose of Yutingyuan today, Yutingyuan will retaliate against you and the entire Gu family."
"It doesn't matter, I'm going to take you away today." Gu Zeyu held Wen Yi firmly, as if he was afraid that if he didn't hold on tight enough, something bad would happen to Wen Yi.
He wanted to save Wen Yi.
"Wen Yi, I don't want you to live in hell in the future," Gu Zeyu added.
Wen Yi glanced at her parents and Wen Ge. Their expressions were not good, especially Gu Zeyu holding Wen Yi like that. Wen's mother was very anxious, but there was nothing she could do.
Wen Ge cried even harder, staring intently, but dared not do anything at this moment.
Wen Yi suddenly smiled and said, "Young Master Gu has something else to tell you."
"What?"
“If I go with you, Wen Ge will be taken to the Imperial Garden immediately,” Wen Yi said.
Gu Zeyu's expression, which had been so determined to take Wen Yi away, suddenly softened, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
He turned to look at Wen Ge, who was crying weakly, her body leaning limply against her mother, as if she might faint at any moment.
She's so delicate it breaks your heart.
Gu Zeyu hesitated even more. If such a weak person went to the Imperial Garden, the outcome would be even more tragic.
"So, is Young Master Gu still going to take me with him?" Wen Yi said. "I'd love to go with Young Master Gu, preferably right now, let's run away..."
Before Wen Yi could finish speaking, she felt Gu Zeyu's grip on her arm suddenly loosen.
The man who had just been so determined to save Wen Yi now stared at Wen Ge with a complicated expression, hesitating and struggling.
Wen smiled.
Her earlier judgment was indeed correct: Gu Zeyu didn't love anyone; he only loved the greatness of himself.
He steps forward whenever anyone is vulnerable and in need of rescue, and he loves himself for that.
So...
"Young Master Gu and Wen Ge are a perfect match."
A match made in heaven.
Wen Yi reached out and completely removed Gu Zeyu's hand from her arm. "I was just joking with Young Master Gu. I didn't expect him to take it seriously."
Gu Zeyu stared at Wen Yi.
Wen Yi raised her chin and looked directly at Luo Yi. "Let's go."
Luo Yi looked around expressionlessly, then nodded and drove away with Wen Yi in the car.
Throughout this process, Gu Zeyu, who had just vowed to marry Wen Yi and save her, did not utter a single word, nor did he make any move to stop it.
Seven or eight cars arrived at the Imperial Garden. If they want to leave now, they must start turning around from the very last car.
Inside the car at the rear, Gu Huaixu sat in a rather lazy posture, casually staring at the screen in front of him.
The above is the real-time monitoring data sent by Luo Yi.
Gu Huaixu saw everything that happened in the Wen family's living room just now very clearly.
As the car turned around, Gu Huaixu looked out the window and chuckled.
"It's changed."
Luo Jia, who was driving, was a little confused when he heard Gu Huaixu's words, "Second Master?"
"Has he changed, or is this just his nature?"
Intelligent and clear-headed, straightforward and sharp.
She didn't have any thorns before; she just quietly guarded her own little world, stubbornly seeking affirmation and love in the Wen family.
But now, without that stubbornness, Wen Yi has become sharp and straightforward, intelligent and discerning, seeing through everyone and attacking them in the most direct way.
The current Wen Yi will attack people.
Gu Huaixu lowered his head and smiled faintly. In that smile, there was a hint of pride, a hint of helplessness, and a hint of amusement.
Luo Jia really couldn't understand, "Second Master?"
Gu Huaixu looked up, his gaze icy. Luo Jia immediately dismissed all his doubts. "Sir, now it's time to..."
"Civil Affairs Bureau," Gu Huaixu commanded coldly. "Didn't I say we needed to get a marriage certificate and change our household registration, huh?"
"I understand, sir!"
After Luo Jia finished speaking, he immediately sent instructions to Luo Yi behind him, and the cars from Yutingyuan headed to the Civil Affairs Bureau in a grand procession...
