The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Everyone eating at the table put down their chopsticks and focused their eyes on Su Yanxi.
The chopsticks in Su Yanxi's hand seemed to have turned into a jack, so heavy that she seemed unable to lift it.
Fortunately, she remained calm and gently asked, "Brother Yanze, do you want to get married?"
Everyone's attention was focused on Gu Yanze.
Gu Nanchu's face was filled with grief: "Look at my peers who have become great grandfathers, and my grandson hasn't even got married yet. If this continues, I'm really worried that Yan Ze will bring a man back."
Gu Yanze: "..."
"Master, please don't ruin my reputation. I'm not interested in men."
Gu Nanchu: "If you have no interest in men, why are you still hesitating? Yanyan is so outstanding, why are you still hesitating? Look at you, you are so mean. You have always been so unpleasant since you were a child. It's really unlucky for Yanyan to meet a man like you."
Ni Yuchang looked unhappy and said defensively, "Dad, Yan Ze hasn't said he doesn't want to marry Yan Yan yet, don't come up and put the blame on him."
Gu Yuanzhou's voice was solemn and full of pressure: "You are twenty-nine years old. At this age, Yanze, you should get married."
Gu Yanze couldn't eat anymore.
Su Yanxi's charming face showed a calm expression as she picked up a fried, golden, and tender shrimp ball and chewed it slowly and carefully.
Gu Yanze looked down at the crystal clear white rice in the bowl and spoke: "I still say the same thing, I don't want to get married now."
Gu Nanchu slammed the chopsticks in his hand on the table. "Are you trying to rebel? The elders in the family have been trying to persuade you kindly, and you still want us to kneel down and kowtow to you? Tell me how Yanyan is not worthy of you, you bastard!"
Saying that you don't want to marry a girl in front of her will undoubtedly hurt her self-esteem.
Gu Nanchu looked at Su Yanxi worriedly. He wanted to comfort her, but when he saw her expression, he hesitated to say anything, because Su Yanxi's reaction was very different from what he expected.
She ate quietly, her cheeks puffed up like a little squirrel, with no emotion, as if the heated discussion had nothing to do with her.
It was completely different from her reaction the last time Gu Yanze said he didn't want to marry her.
Gu Nanchu couldn't understand why Su Yanxi's reaction was so calm, so he guessed, look, this child was so sad that she overate.
Gu Yuanzhou and Ni Yushang had similar guesses, believing that Su Yanxi was trying hard to hide her inner grief.
Su Yanxi had almost finished eating and put down the chopsticks in her hand. Her tone was as calm as the spring water flowing quietly in March, without any ripples.
"Actually, I don't want to marry Brother Yanze right now."
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
The air pressure decreases.
The temperature is freezing.
Gu Nanchu, Ni Yushang, and Gu Yuanzhou were shocked!
Gu Yanze suddenly raised his head, which had been hanging down, as if he couldn't believe she would say such a thing: "Yanyan, do you know what you are saying?"
Su Yanxi reached out and took a small cake, scooped a spoonful with a spoon, and slowly put it into her mouth. The soft and sweet baked cake melted in her mouth.
She repeated clearly, "I know. I said, I don't want to marry you now."
Just like a computer suddenly crashed, Gu Yanze was unable to think for a moment. It was as if he was slapped hard in the face, and there was only a buzzing sound in his brain.
Gu Nanchu, Gu Yuanzhou and Ni Yushang noticed that the situation had changed and things were becoming more difficult.
Ni Yuchang has always been partial to Gu Yanze, her only child. Now, when she looks at Gu Yanze, an anxious and angry expression appears on her face.
"Yan Ze, how could you tell Yan Yan in person that you don't want to marry her? Apologize to Yan Yan now!"
After apologizing, Yanyan should forgive Yanze...right...
Gu Nanchu then said, "Yes! Apologize! Apologize to Yanyan immediately!"
Gu Yuanzhou also said coldly: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and say sorry."
In fact, the three elders were just paving a way for Gu Yanze. As long as Gu Yanze took this step, they would never mention the fact that Su Yanxi didn't want to marry Gu Yanze, as if it had never happened.
Gu Yanze, who had always taken the initiative in this marriage, began to panic at this moment.
"Yanyan, is it because what I said just now was too straightforward? I'm sorry for hurting your self-esteem. I'm sorry."
In fact, Gu Yanze said in front of all the elders that he didn't want to marry Su Yanxi, and he knew beforehand that it would hurt Su Yanxi, but if he didn't say it, these three elders might force him to get a marriage certificate tomorrow. Faced with this two-choice question, he chose to hurt her.
Su Yanxi's voice was calm and pointed: "You don't need to apologize to me, you just made a choice that was beneficial to you."
Gu Yanze's heart seemed to be tightly gripped, contracting violently, and an expression of embarrassment appeared on his face as if his despicable thoughts had been exposed.
Su Yanxi has been an excellent student since childhood and was admitted to the best medical school in the country. During her master's studies, her mentor was a leading master in the medical field. She was able to stay in Beijing Union Hospital as a doctor right after graduation. She is so smart, how could she not see through Gu Yanze's thoughts.
She understood everything, but she didn't expose him because she had him in her heart.
It's rare to be confused. When you like someone, you will be willing to pretend to be confused and deceive yourself so that you can feel better.
But now she doesn't want to pretend anymore.
People should always look forward.
People always have to make themselves happy.
The current situation has developed far beyond the expectations of Gu Nanchu, Gu Yuanzhou and Ni Yushang.
