Meanwhile, at the Empire State Building.
The handsome man standing by the floor-to-ceiling window smiled, his long fingers stroking his chin as he spoke with amusement, "What did you say? I'm being married off?"
His deep, cold voice was clear and magnetic, carrying the imposing aura of a superior.
Xu Yi's back was covered in cold sweat, and he could only bite the bullet and say, "When I arrived, I was still a step too late. Miss Yu had already left with the marriage certificate."
"Both parties need to be present to receive the marriage certificate." Quan Jingzhou glanced at him. "How did she manage that?"
Xu Yi raised his eyes, quickly scanning the man's handsome face, which was shrouded in mystery, and said, "According to... according to the people who processed the documents, Miss Yu cried very miserably in front of them, and... they also said..."
"say what?"
"They're saying you're dead."
"..."
Okay, very good!
Not only were they paid 500 yuan to get rid of me, but they also processed my death certificate!
Quan Jingzhou laughed angrily, "Find her for me."
Xu Yi was taken aback. "Young Master, are you referring to Miss Yu or the person who processed her certificate?"
Quan Jingzhou gave a sharp look, "What did you call her?"
Xu Yi: "..."
"You should address her as, Young Madam."
Quan Jingzhou casually uttered those words and left the office.
He completely ignored the dumbfounded expression on Xu Yi's face behind him.
Young master, has your soul been possessed by an alien?
**
The taxi stopped in front of the Yu family villa. Yu Guanguan looked at the luxurious and beautiful villa in front of her and a cold smile appeared on her lips.
This home is like a magnificent robe, looking glamorous on the outside, but actually filled with disgusting parasites inside.
Yu Guanguan took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and saw several familiar faces.
The father, Yu Haipeng, sat in the living room, while his stepmother, Yao Fangqin, and her daughter, Yu Ziling, sat on either side.
On the other two sofas sat Ji Mingxuan and Ji Mingrou, along with Ji Guoyuan, the head of the Ji family.
Several people sat upright in a circle.
Seeing this scene, Yu Guanguan sneered inwardly.
It seems that Ji Mingxuan and Ji Mingrou had planned this all along, intending to give her a three-way interrogation and strike first.
However, they would be mistaken if they still regarded her as the obedient Yu Guanguan of the past.
Yu Guanguan clutched her bag, touched the two sharply defined red booklets inside, and calmly walked into the living room.
The sound of high heels clicking on the floor immediately drew everyone's attention.
"You unfilial daughter! Kneel down!"
Yu Haipeng slammed his hand on the table. "You still have the nerve to come back? Tell me, where did you go last night?"
"Dad, I don't know what you're talking about," Yu Guanguan said, straightening her back with composure.
"You dare talk back! Apologize to Mingxuan right now... You've completely disgraced our family."
"Apologize?"
Yu Guanguan raised her eyebrows in feigned surprise and looked at Ji Mingxuan, "Mingxuan, do you need me to apologize to you? Weren't you the one who stood me up yesterday?"
In a single sentence, the blame was easily shifted onto Ji Mingxuan.
Upon hearing this, Ji Guoyuan immediately frowned and turned to question his son, "Mingxuan, wasn't yesterday the day you and Guanguan got your marriage certificate? Where were you?"
"Dad, I..." Ji Mingxuan was speechless.
Based on their reactions, Yu Guanguan guessed that Ji Guoyuan was probably unaware of the illicit relationship between the brother and sister.
This only makes Ji Mingxuan and Ji Mingrou appear even more hypocritical and despicable.
"Uncle Ji, please don't blame Brother Mingxuan."
Seeing that Ji Mingxuan was about to become the target of public criticism, Yu Ziling immediately stepped forward, putting on a poised and elegant demeanor, and said, "I'm afraid Brother Mingxuan changed his mind at the last minute because he heard some rumors. Guanguan was nowhere to be seen all night yesterday, and this morning a reporter even reported that she appeared at the Imperial Hotel... and was disheveled..."
