She didn't even look down on Chu Shanwen or anyone else.
Besides, what need does a married woman have for a fiancé?
Although Gu Yuheng is a bit annoying, he's clearly better than Chu Shanwen, isn't he? She's not blind; why would she throw away the watermelon for a sesame seed?
Even if the Chu family doesn't come to annul the engagement today, she will find a chance to break it off sooner or later.
"You are Chu Xia?" Madam Chu's face flashed with amazement when she saw Lin Chu Xia.
She only knew everything about Lin Chuxia from her daughter. All she knew was that Lin Chuxia was utterly unremarkable except for her looks.
However, now it seems that Lin Chuxia's appearance is more than just passable.
How could Xie Jinya and An Guosheng, who are like that, give birth to such a beautiful daughter?
However, even so, Lin Chuxia is not suitable for the Chu family.
A man should marry a virtuous woman.
A mere decorative vase offers no benefit whatsoever to the Chu family. Moreover, Lin Chuxia is not valued within the An family.
They had initially thought that annulling the engagement would be difficult, but it went surprisingly smoothly. Before coming, they had prepared many excuses, but none of them had been used.
Lin Chuxia's straightforwardness made Madam Chu feel a little embarrassed, but mostly happy.
She turned to Xie Jinya and smiled, "Then it's settled! This engagement is null and void. Anyway, it was just a joke between the elders in the beginning. As for Shanwen and your Chuxia, if they are destined to be together in the future, I won't stop them. But let's not use this fictitious engagement to hold them hostage, don't you think?"
Xie Jinya never intended for Lin Chuxia to marry into the Chu family. It's not a big deal that the marriage was called off, it's just too embarrassing.
But since things had come to this point, Xie Jinya had no choice but to nod.
Before leaving, Madam Chu looked at the poised and dignified An Mingzhu, then at her own son who was closely following her. After thinking for a moment, she spoke her mind.
"Jin Ya, actually I'm also quite looking forward to a marriage alliance with your family. You know, our Yi Yi and Shan Wen have always been quite close to your Ming Zhu. I've always thought that if these two children are interested in each other, that would be perfect..."
She knew about her son's feelings for An Mingzhu. For the past two years, she had always treated An Mingzhu as her daughter-in-law. She just didn't expect Lin Chuxia to appear out of nowhere.
"Of course, if neither of them is interested, we can't force them to be together, as that would only create more resentment... That's why I haven't mentioned this engagement to you all these years. But recently, your grandfather seems to have a new idea, so we thought we'd come over today to explain things clearly..."
Actually, Madam Chu was afraid that Lin Chuxia would cling to the Chu family, which is why she rushed over to cancel the engagement.
After all, for the past month or so, Chu Yiyi had been constantly nagging her about how terrible Lin Chuxia was, and yesterday they learned that Lin Chuxia had only gotten into a second-rate university, which made them even more worried.
How can someone who can't even get into university be the daughter-in-law of the Chu family? What will people think of the Chu family if word gets out?
So they rushed over early this morning just to call off the engagement.
At this moment, Madam Chu never imagined that Lin Chuxia, whom she had always looked down upon, would later become someone that the Chu family looked up to with great admiration.
