Chapter 274 I’m Not That Generous

"You—" Gu Dongxing really wanted to say how did you know, but as the words reached his lips, he immediately swallowed them back.

"Xiao Meng, you—"

"What about me, I don’t hold the noble status of your childhood sweetheart. You’ve already taken her back from her father’s hands, along with her dowry; naturally, you have to take responsibility for her.

As for someone like me, a mere country bumpkin, a commoner, you don’t need to bother at all."

Gu Dongxing finally confirmed that Jiang Mengyu knew everything about his activities in the Capital City.

He was depressed. Could it be that she had someone follow him? Otherwise, how would she know?

"Mengyu, my heart for you is as clear as the sky above—"

Mengyu interrupted him: "Stop, don’t talk to me about the sky above. I only want to know, did you or did you not bring back your childhood sweetheart that you were betrothed to since childhood?"

Gu Dongxing: "I—"

Mengyu interrupted him: "You only need to say yes or no!"

Gu Dongxing could only honestly answer: "Yes!"

"Are you planning to take care of her from now on?" Mengyu pressed on.

Gu Dongxing with a pained face: "Xiao Meng—"

"Say yes or no!"

Gu Dongxing lowered his head: "Yes!" but immediately raised it again: "But my betrothal to her was automatically dissolved when she got married."

"The betrothal was automatically dissolved when she got married, but now she is free again, you’re unmarried and she’s single, you’ve brought her to your side, and you’ve promised to take care of her, so naturally, the conditions are there to fulfill your betrothal.

I have already said, don’t come looking for me when you have a betrothal on you, not only did you not dissolve the betrothal with her and completely break off your ties, but you also brought her back.

Do you really think I’m an Immortal, or do you take me for a fool, thinking I’m so forgiving that I can tolerate your childhood sweetheart, who has relied on you wholeheartedly and loved you since childhood, to be by your side?"

Mengyu was frustrated. If it wasn’t for Shen Qi telling her, she would still be in the dark.

So it turned out that the childhood betrothal was real. Only, Ye Rushui was not his betrothal partner, it was her half-sister Ye Qing who also had the same father!

And this Ye Qing was already married!

This Gu Dongxing, this time he wasn’t on some mission, but was called back by his family to fulfill the marriage agreement with the Ye Family. The marriage partner was indeed Ye Rushui.

However, this Ye Rushui was no maiden, but had divorced her original husband to marry him, and then her family sought him out to fulfill the marriage agreement.

But after he found out that the betrothal partner was Ye Qing, he actually helped Ye Qing overthrow the Sun Family, helped her get divorced from the Sun Family members, and then brought her along to stay by his side.

Since he had made his choice, what did it mean for him to still come looking for her?

Could it be that he really thought she was generous enough to accept him marrying her while bringing another woman along?

Gu Dongxing was looking down, staring at Mengyu: "Xiao Meng, things aren’t what you think."

He recounted his experience this time going back, how he found Ye Qing being tortured by the Sun Family beyond recognition, how he sent her to the hospital, and found out that her body was tortured to a ten-level disability.

Then he brought in public opinion to force the Ye Family to act, the Sun Family got kicked when down, and their supporters scattered.

But the Sun Family members, after being arrested, were found to have developed illnesses, and then it was discovered that Ye Qing too, suffered from premature aging due to radiation in her eyes from the Guanyin statue as a result of an enemy’s revenge.

Father Ye approached him, asking him to take care of Ye Qing. Considering that she was not favored by her father and stepmother, and that her sister would only scheme against her, he had no choice but to take her away and so on. He told all of this to Jiang Mengyu.
