"What do you mean? Why do you do this?"
Liu Ruoyun frowned.
"I don't mean anything."
Zhang Mingyuan shook his head and continued.
"As for why you asked Cui Yuxuan to terminate its cooperation with your Treasure Pavilion, it was simply because I was displeased with you. There's no other intention."
"you..........."
Liu Ruoyun looked shocked and angry. Was it because he was displeased with her? It seemed that this was really because she had not agreed when he pursued her before, and she finally got angry out of shame.
"So what do you want?"
Liu Ruoyun frowned, her tone extremely cold.
"I think you know what I want..."
Zhang Mingyuan had an amused look on his face, tapping the table lightly with his fingers.
"Impossible, just give up on this idea. Even if my Liu family goes bankrupt, I won't agree to your request."
Liu Ruoyun had a cold expression on her face. She slapped the table, stood up, then turned around and walked outside.
Looking at Liu Ruoyun's gradually receding back, Zhang Mingyuan couldn't help but sneer.
"Hmph... Do you think you can escape from my palm like this?"
................
But at this moment, another scene was happening at the door.
"Who are you? Don't you know that this box has been booked out?"
Mother Liu stood at the door with her hands on her hips, staring angrily at the young man in front of her. When she heard that her daughter and the young master of the Zhang family had something to discuss, she rushed over, wanting to act as a matchmaker and bring the two together.
After all, the Zhang family is one of the four major families in Jiangnan City, and Zhang Mingyuan is the eldest son of the Zhang family and the future heir of the Zhang family. If they can establish this relationship, then their Liu family will be able to stand firm and even move to a higher level.
However, she had just arrived here and had not yet approached the box when she saw a young man in rustic clothes approaching the box. Immediately, Liu's mother was displeased. Without thinking twice, she stood in front of him.
It would be bad if his daughter and the eldest young master of the Zhang family had discussed some important points and it was ruined by this country boy.
"Aunt Liu."
Looking at the woman in front of him, whose face already had a few wrinkles, Gu Changjun felt a little melancholy. In the blink of an eye, fifteen years had passed and everyone had changed.
When Liu's mother heard this, she was immediately shocked. She didn't know this poor boy who looked rustic and had no money. Could he be a mentally ill patient who ran away from a mental hospital?
After taking a deep breath and calming himself down, Gu Changjun frowned and said, "Aunt Liu, please move aside. I need to go see Ruoyun."
Hearing this, Liu's mother was stunned. Who on earth was this guy? How dare he call her daughter Ruoyun like that? Did he think he knew her well?
Immediately, Liu's mother flew into a rage, but just as she was about to start scolding someone, she found that the young man in front of her seemed familiar. Considering how the young man addressed her before, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
"Could you be...Gu Changjun?"
"Yes, Aunt Liu! I am Gu Changjun! Don't you remember me?"
Gu Changjun nodded.
"So it's you, a useless thing. I didn't expect you to be so lucky. More than ten years have passed and you're still alive. You even came back."
Mother Liu suddenly realized, and then she looked disdainful, not taking Gu Changjun seriously at all, her eyes full of disgust.
At this moment, Gu Changjun's face turned dark. He should have known that Aunt Liu was a dog that could not spit out ivory. She was still like this after so many years. When he was boarding at the Liu family before, he was often bullied by Aunt Liu.
If it were in the past when he was in the Dark World, if someone dared to speak to him like this, he would have been killed long ago, and no one would know where his ashes were. But the woman in front of him was Liu Ruoyun's mother and his future mother-in-law. Because of this, he endured it and did not lose his temper.
"Hehe...you still have that stern face, who are you showing it to? Tell me, why didn't you die out there? Why did you come back? Are you trying to stage a comeback? Ridiculous, didn't Ruoyun help you escape? Just get out of here right now, don't come back, it's really bad luck!"
He didn't want to care about anything, but Liu's mother was still pestering him. What she said was the truth. Although she didn't want to admit it, this was the fact. After all, the Liu family and the Gu family did have an engagement.
Obviously, this unreasonable person in front of her did not want to fulfill the original engagement, but her Liu family was still a powerful family. If she kicked the Gu family away just because the Gu family declined and was destroyed, other families would inevitably say that her Liu family was ungrateful and dishonest.
There is only one best way to solve this problem, that is, Gu Changjun, who originally planned to go out and fight and make a living, dies outside. This is the best way.
Fifteen years passed like this. When she thought Gu Changjun had died outside, she didn't expect that this useless guy would come back again.
......................
"I'm going to look for Ruoyun, please move aside."
Gu Changjun frowned and didn't want to say any more nonsense to Liu's mother. He was afraid that he would lose control of himself and beat Liu's mother to death on the spot.
"Humph... who the hell are you? You're just a worthless bastard with no parents and no home. How dare you go looking for my daughter? How can a loser like you be worthy of my daughter? You're just dreaming!"
"Now that you're back, you must have had a rough time out there. You definitely don't have good intentions. You're just a lowly person, and you'll never have any lofty ideals. Your presence will only hinder my daughter and the future development of our Liu family."
Mother Liu snorted disdainfully, her words were extremely vicious, and every word was precious. Every word that came out of her mouth deeply hurt Gu Changjun's heart.
"Click-----"
Gu Changjun's heart was filled with rage, and his fists clenched slightly. His parents were his Achilles' heel, and no one could insult them.
But in the end, when he thought of Liu's mother's identity, she was Liu Ruoyun's mother and his future mother-in-law after all, so he endured it and tried every possible way to calm himself down.
"You are a piece of trash, born of a mother but not raised by her. Get out of here right now..."
When Liu's mother put her hands on her hips and wanted to say something else, at this moment, accompanied by a "click", the door of the box was opened, and then Liu Ruoyun walked out.
"Ruoyun."
Seeing the beautiful figure standing at the door, Gu Changjun was excited and his thoughts went back to fifteen years ago. Fifteen years had passed, and the kind little girl had grown up to be so beautiful.
