Xia Wenlan was a little anxious, but soon she realized her tone was not good, and quickly changed to a gentle tone and said, "Uncle Yu, you promised me that you would never let my mother suffer any injustice, so I agreed to let her marry you. But now you want to leave the house with nothing. How are you going to live in the future?"
Xia Wanru pulled her hand and said, "Wen Lan, stop talking. I also agreed."
"No, Mom, no one will appreciate it if you do this. You can't put yourself in such a difficult position." Xia Wenlan shook her head and said with concern.
Yu Rou laughed and said sarcastically, "Miss Xia, are you suffering from paranoia?"
Xia Wenlan frowned: "What do you mean?"
"Whether my dad signs this agreement or not is my family's business, because this is my Yu family's money. It has nothing to do with your precious mother. You have no say in it." Yu Rou changed her tone, glanced at Xia Wenlan nonchalantly, and said, "How about you change your surname to Yu like me and call him Dad? Then you might be able to get some of my family's money, and your mother can enjoy the life of a noble lady."
Every word Yu Rou said was stinging, but she smiled appropriately, with a cold and pure look in her eyes and eyebrows, as if just looking at her and her daughter was a blessing.
"You!" Although Xia Wenlan has been without a father since childhood, as the heroine of the book, she has always been lucky. She is beautiful, has good grades, and is outstanding in all aspects. She has many suitors and although she is not spoiled, she is still very strong-willed overall.
Yu Rou's words made her feel embarrassed, ashamed and angry. In front of so many people, she was so angry that her face turned pale.
Someone watching the excitement whispered, "Look, they said they didn't care about the Yu family's money, but when it came time to sign the agreement, they jumped out and started shouting."
"Yes, that Miss Xia meant that the money was to be used to support her and her mother. She was afraid that if Yu Zhen was forced to leave the house, he would become a gigolo."
"They claim it's true love, but if Mr. Yu wasn't the CEO of a large company, I probably wouldn't have truly loved him in the first place..."
Other people's comments made Yu Zhen feel a little suspicious. He wondered if Xia Wanru and her daughter cared more about him being the president of Yu Group so that he could give them the life they wanted.
He divorced Yu Rou's mother just to give Xia Wanru a legitimate status. He was wrong, but he felt that at his age, he had finally met someone he loved, and if he gave up, he might regret it later. He and Yu Rou's mother did not have love, and it was a business marriage at the beginning, but the two got along very well, so they always respected each other, but Xia Wanru gave him a different feeling.
He felt pity for Xia Wanru and her daughter. They had a miserable life and had lived a hard life over the years, but they never mentioned their hardships in front of him and never asked him for money. But now that he wanted to leave the house with nothing, why was Xia Wenlan so excited?
Yu Zhen looked down at Xia Wanru. Her face was full of worry and she looked very fragile. Even in a gorgeous dress, she couldn't hold it up and looked a little petty.
Yu Zhen sighed secretly and said in a deep voice: "Stop arguing, I have made up my mind, I will sign."
"Uncle Yu! Do you want to think about it again?" Xia Wenlan said disapprovingly.
In fact, Xia Wenlan did not want to covet the Yu family's property as others thought. She just felt that as a president, Yu Zhen must have a lot of expenses on a daily basis. You know, it is difficult to live frugally from extravagance. If he was kicked out of the house, how would he get the money to live the same life as before? Poor couples have many worries, and she was afraid that her mother would suffer.
However, it was not appropriate for her to express these thoughts in front of so many people. Moreover, Yu Rou's words made her angry and upset, and she was a little confused. She was impatient, and the words she said seemed to have a different meaning, making others hear other meanings.
Yu Zhen said seriously, "No need."
The look in his eyes when he looked at Xia Wenlan was no longer as flattering as before. You have to know that in the original plot, Yu Zhen had always been very attentive to Xia Wenlan in order to make her truly accept him as a member of her family. He even shared his love for his daughter with Xia Wenlan because of Yu Rou's breakup with him. He almost responded to her every request and treated her like his own daughter.
This is also one of the reasons why the original owner hated Xia Wenlan so much. Xia Wenlan not only took away Yu Rou's father, but also took away Gan Lie. Even though the original owner did many wrong things, she did not feel sorry for Xia Wenlan at all.
Yu Zhen took the agreement and put it on the table. He quickly signed his name in two copies. After signing each copy, he gave one copy to Yu Rou and looked at her with guilt in his eyes.
…
Gan Lie had anticipated the worst possible scenario on the way here. He thought that Yu Rou would cause a big mess and even ruin the wedding. He would probably see a mess when he arrived at the scene. But when he got off the car, he saw Yu Rou standing in the crowd like a proud swan, holding a document in her hand. She raised her glass and said a few words to Yu Zhen and Xia Wanru, then spilled the wine on the ground and handed the glass to the assistant beside her. She smiled faintly, her facial features bright and charming.
Gan Lie stared at her for a while, not knowing what he was thinking. When Yu Rou turned around, she happened to see him. Their eyes met, but there was no spark.
A hint of interest flashed in her eyes. This man was very much to her liking, but he was completely different from the little wolfhounds she had found in her previous life. Even though he looked handsome and gentle, he was extremely dangerous and aggressive. His cold face seemed to be covered with frost, and when his eyes swept over her, there was a chill of love and hate. His lips were very thin, and he was pursing them unhappily.
