Chapter 3 The ex-fiancé called Gu Ruyi to...
The person who called out to Gu Ruyi was a young man wearing a pair of glasses. He was about 1.7 meters tall and looked gentle and refined, like a well-read scholar.
But the impatience in the man's eyes ruined his temperament. Seeing that Gu Ruyi didn't say anything, the man became even more annoyed. He rubbed his forehead and said, "Gu Ruyi, you are not here to see me, are you? Don't forget, we have already called off the engagement."
Man, your name is confidence.
Gu Ruyi looked at her ex-fiancé as if he were mentally retarded, "Wu Shulai, guess what I'm thinking about now?"
What else can I think about? I must be ecstatic to have finally found him!
well! Being too charming can also be a nuisance.
Wu Shulai was proud in his heart, but his brows were furrowed, "Don't make excuses with me, I just want you to stay away from me now."
"Haha!" Gu Ruyi said sarcastically, "That's a coincidence, I thought so too. I was even thinking just now that it was really unlucky to meet you in such a big market."
"Besides, you were the one who came up to me this time. What does it have to do with me?"
"you……"
Wu Shulai was outmaneuvered by Gu Ruyi, and his face instantly darkened.
"You're not here to see me, so why are you here at the Dongfanghong Market?"
Wu Shulai didn't believe what Gu Ruyi said. After all, he heard that Gu Ruyi was kicked out of the Xu family. It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Without the Xu family, Gu Ruyi's life would definitely plummet.
This time, Gu Ruyi went too far. The Xu family has already said that they will never let Gu Ruyi go back. He can't rely on the Xu family. Given Gu Ruyi's temper, it would be abnormal for her not to come to find him.
However, Gu Ruyi is really stubborn. Even though things have come to this, she is still unreasonable. It's such a waste of such a pretty face.
If Gu Ruyi knew what Wu Shulai was thinking, she would definitely say "Pooh" to him without hesitation.
The original owner was indeed very attached to Wu Shulai before, but that was because they were an engaged couple and the original owner liked Wu Shulai a little.
However, this little bit of liking is far less than the original owner's self-esteem.
Ever since the matter of the real and fake daughter was exposed, Wu Shulai ruthlessly broke off the engagement with the original owner, and the original owner felt that her self-esteem had been greatly insulted.
In the original owner's heart, Wu Shulai immediately turned from white rice into mosquito shit. Not to mention that her life was just a little harder, even if she was married to a remote mountainous area in the novel, the original owner had never thought of asking Wu Shulai for help.
As for Gu Ruyi, she only had one idea in her mind regarding men, which was, 'It's hard to find a three-legged frog, but there are plenty of two-legged men. '
He is just a man who despises the poor and loves the rich. In Gu Ruyi's eyes, he is trash. She thinks he is dirty even at the first look at him, let alone going back to him.
Overconfident men are really disgusting. Gu Ruyi's eyes showed disgust, "How ridiculous! Is this Dongfanghong Market owned by your family? We came here to find you. According to you, then everyone who comes to Dongfanghong Market is here to find you?"
Wu Shulai's face turned red after being scolded, "I... I haven't thought about it that way?"
"Only you know what you are thinking, but as a kind passerby, I suggest you use your brain when you go out in the future to avoid embarrassing yourself."
"Gu Ruyi..."
Wu Shulai was so furious that his face turned red like a monkey's butt because of Gu Ruyi's anger.
Gu Ruyi rolled her eyes mercilessly, then turned and left.
The opponent is too weak. There is no sense of accomplishment in engaging in a verbal lawsuit with such a man. She should hurry back!
Wu Shulai felt even angrier when he saw Gu Ruyi's back without any reluctance.
She left so decisively, did Gu Ruyi really not come to find him?
But how is this possible?
Yes, absolutely not.
He didn't believe it and thought Gu Ruyi was playing hard to get.
Oh! He is too smart to be fooled.
——————
Gu Ruyi came back quite late. All the members of the Gu family had already returned and had had lunch.
The dining table was a mess, and there was not even a vegetable leaf left for Gu Ruyi.
This was within Gu Ruyi's expectations, as she had three younger brothers, all of whom were in their teens.
It is said that the little brats can make their father go bankrupt. In this era of material scarcity, with a few such kids at home, not to mention leftovers, the brothers of the Gu family don’t need to wash their bowls after each meal. The bowls are so clean that they reflect light.
When he saw Gu Ruyi coming back, Gu Sanyong, the youngest child of the Gu family, immediately rushed over like a monkey.
"Sister, sister, are you back? Did you bring me anything delicious?"
When Gu Sanyong said going back, he meant Gu Ruyi going back to her adoptive parents' home.
Although Gu Ruyi was driven back by the Xu family, the Gu family thought that the Xu family had raised Gu Ruyi for eighteen years after all and had a deep affection for her. They would definitely not be willing to let her go back sooner or later.
The Xu family is a big family with several people in high positions. As long as Gu Ruyi can go back, the Gu family will be able to eat up any money that slips through their fingers.
It is precisely because of this idea that even though the original owner is doing something wrong now, the Gu family still tolerates her.
As for why the Gu family didn’t hold on to the real daughter they raised, haha! Of course, that's because I feel guilty.
In the Gu family, sons are treasures and daughters are weeds. Therefore, the real daughter Xu Ruyu was not treated as a human being in the Gu family. She started learning to do housework at the age of three and could cook on a stool at the age of five.
The three boys of the Gu family were all raised by Xu Ruyu. In order to prevent Xu Ruyu from delaying her work, Gu's mother even did not allow her to go to school.
Moreover, Xu Ruyu had just turned eighteen, but Gu's mother couldn't wait to find a husband for her. The man was a disabled man who was willing to pay a high price for the dowry.
If the truth had not been exposed, Xu Ruyu would probably have that disabled baby now.
Xu Ruyu naturally hated the Gu family for being so harsh to them. Not to mention helping them, Xu Ruyu was already kind-hearted for not stepping on the Gu family.
Not to mention outsiders, even Gu Ruyi, who read the novel at the time, felt a little distressed about Xu Ruyu's experience.
So Gu Ruyi really couldn't understand how the original owner had the nerve to target Xu Ruyu.
Although the wrong baby was not the original owner's fault, it is a fact that Xu Ruyu suffered torture in the Gu family for more than ten years instead of the original owner.
Faced with a girl who suffered for him, the original owner should not be grateful, nor should he attack Xu Ruyu.
But the original owner did just that. His character is almost the same as those of the Gu family. No wonder the original owner ended up in such a situation and no one saved him. It was all retribution.
Of course, if the original owner is not a good person, then the Gu family is even less of a good person, so when facing the Gu family, Gu Ruyi has no intention of destroying his character.
"What do you want to eat? Do I owe you anything? If you want to eat, go find your parents."
Gu Sanyong trembled when Gu Ruyi yelled at him, but the next second he revealed his true colors to Gu's mother.
"Mom, didn't you say that I could bring me a bunch of delicious food? Why didn't I bring any? I don't care, I don't care. I want to eat meat and White Rabbit candy. Woo woo woo woo..."
Gu Sanyong not only cried, but also fell to the ground and rolled around. He was obviously ten years old, but he had no shame at all.
Gu Ruyi was simply too embarrassed to watch, but her mother was very impressed by this trick and said distressedly: "Little ancestor, little ancestor, please stop howling."
"I want to eat, I want to eat, I want to eat wow wow wow..."
The sharp crying made Gu Ruyi's ears almost explode, but Gu's mother felt like her heart was broken.
But even though she wanted to give her heart to her youngest son, Gu's mother still couldn't help but plot against Gu Ruyi.
"Ruyi, this is your own brother. He is crying so sadly, can't you comfort him? If there is no food, you can at least give him some money!"
Here it comes, here it comes again.
When the original owner came back, she brought some luggage with her. The Gu family had no idea that she was penniless. Seeing that her clothes were 90% new without a single patch, they thought the original owner was very rich.
Therefore, in the past few days, Gu's mother racked her brains to get money out of the original owner's pocket, using both soft and hard methods.
Fortunately, the original owner had no money. If he had money, it would have all gone into Gu's mother's pocket.
Gu Ruyi did sign in a few dollars today, but she was asked to use the money to coax Gu Sanyong...
hehe! Dream on! Not even in the next life.
Gu Ruyi ignored Gu's mother and just looked at the tantrum-throwing Gu Sanyong with disdain and said, "My neighbor's three-year-old girl doesn't even need this trick to ask for things. Gu Sanyong, you are not even as good as a three-year-old child, and you still have the nerve to say that you are a man every day. It's really shameful."
Gu Sanyong: ...
Eliminate! How could he keep crying?
Gu Sanyong started to sob quietly. Gu Ruyi said "huh" and went back to his room in a heroic manner.
Mother Gu was so angry at her attitude that she fell backwards. She lowered her voice and said to Father Gu angrily, "Old Gu, look at her attitude. She has been stingy for a few days since she came back, like a miser. She also keeps saying that she was raised by a wealthy family. This is what happens when a wealthy family raises a girl. She even pretends to be blind when her parents are in trouble. Can we rely on such a heartless girl even if she goes back?"
Father Gu was of course unhappy, and he stroked his half-finger-long beard and said, "Humph! Give this damn girl a few more days. If the Xu family still doesn't care about her, then you shouldn't be polite to her."
"As for returning to the Xu family, she should be the one who is afraid. We are her biological parents. If she dares to ignore this family, the spit of outsiders will drown her."
"That's right," comforted by Gu's father's words, Gu's mother decided to endure it a little longer.
The two spoke in low voices, but Gu Ruyi heard every word they said.
Gu Ruyi already knew the Gu family's reaction, so she remained calm.
However, it seems that I have to hurry up and find a job.
