Gu Jinzhu took a few deep breaths before suppressing the raging anger in her heart. She stared at him with her clear and sparkling eyes, pretending to be puzzled as she said, "Since you've married your cousin, how can you marry me?"

"Mother says, Mother says …"

Chen Yunze's face was pale, and it was unknown whether it was rain or sweat that dripped down his forehead. In the end, he gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Mother said, since it's two sisters, then …" "Entering the sect at the same time regardless of size, and after that, the two of them become big. That's true, and it's also a beautiful story …"

His voice trailed off, and his face grew more and more embarrassed and ashamed.

Rain continued to fall from the sky, soaking his entire body. His eyes were completely glued to the rain, and he almost did not dare to look at the expression of the person in front of him.

Although the people of this dynasty had equal wives, they were all merchants of the country. True officials like Eunuch [1] paid the most attention to reputation and etiquette. How could there be such an outrageous thing as disregarding the seniority of the direct line?

When his mother had first said it, he already felt it was ridiculous. First of all, not to mention whether the young miss of the Yang family agreed or not, just based on Gu Jinzhu's identity, she was an elder daughter of the Qi Kingdom.

And an equal wife, in a nice way, was only a concubine.

Before Gu Jinzhu could say anything, Bi Xing, who was beside her, jumped up and scolded, "Chen, have you lost your mind? How dare you get my family's young miss to do it for you …"

She was too angry to speak.

Gu Jinzhu didn't say anything as she deeply looked at the person in front of her. She suspected that she was blind back then. How could she have taken a fancy to such a weak and shameless person!?

She looked at him for a while. Suddenly, she smiled and said to Bian Tou. "Let's go. The journey is more important. The later the rain comes, the harder it will be."

After saying that, he turned around and got into the car. He didn't even look at the person in front of him, as if he was just a lump of air.

She didn't even want to talk to him.

Chen Yunze was hanging in the air, and a trace of astonishment immediately filled his face. Was this still the pearl that had always been so fond of him, always so gentle and gentle?

Ever since she was young, she had never objected to anything he said, let alone making things difficult for him like this. No, it couldn't even be considered embarrassing. She didn't even glance at him from the corner of her eyes.

Chen Yunze's face was burning, and this arrogant Top Scorer was not used to being treated coldly. He opened his mouth, but just as he was about to say something, he heard Bi Meng happily respond as they got into the car. As she brushed past him, she simply spat out two words, "Scum!"

People... Scum? Chen Yunze's heart thumped loudly, and for a moment, all the blood rushed to his face.

He could not believe his eyes as he stared at the master and servant in front of him. He thought that his youth was proud and in high spirits. No matter where he went, everyone would praise and admire him. Who would have thought that there would be a day when he would be scolded to such an extent!

He raised his head to look at the naked disdain in the little girl's eyes. Suddenly, his face turned red and then white. He felt as if he had been slapped in the face.

Seeing that Gu Jinzhu had already stepped onto the carriage and was bending over to enter, he became anxious and immediately grabbed her sleeve without caring about anything else. He anxiously said, "Zhu'er, listen to me. I don't mean it that way. I just want, I just want …"

In a moment of panic, he grabbed onto her sleeve, but he didn't notice a pair of eyes that were as black as black jade flash between the curtains. When their gazes fell upon his hand, a cold light suddenly flashed within.

"What are you thinking about?" Gu Jinzhu turned around with eyes as calm as still water, clearly reflecting the youth's panicked expression.

All of the well-prepared reasons were suddenly choked back at this moment. Those excuses that had been replayed in his mind for a long time suddenly could no longer be uttered. Chen Yunze suddenly felt extremely embarrassed when he was stared at by those clear eyes.

Those secretive thoughts that even he himself did not dare to think deeply about were like a shadow meeting the sun, instantly discerned and formless.

After all, he was an innocent teenager. Although he knew his mother's suggestion was excessive, wanting to marry the wealth of the Yang family and then climb up to power in the Duke's family, when his mother said that, he was moved.

He truly liked Zhu Er. Previously, he also wanted to be together with her and grow old together. The two of them were a perfect couple, who wouldn't say which one of them was the most compatible? How could he not have looked forward to the scene of the couple's love?

Therefore, when his mother had first objected to his actions, he had fiercely resisted. However, his father's words had moved him later on. In the end, a man's future had always been his greatest priority!

She was gentle, beautiful, and of noble birth. However, a phoenix that fell to the ground was not as good as a chicken. Once the State Duke's Palace abandoned her, she would be nothing!

Although Yang Qianyu was only a merchant family's daughter, she had the Yang family's gold and silver mountain behind her, so why should he worry about his future career?

His father's words echoed in his mind for three days and three nights. He had fought bitterly with his father as well, but the promise of marriage promised by his father in the past, when compared to the future of wealth and prosperity, was nothing.

Therefore, three days later, when his father mentioned proposing marriage to the Yang family's young miss, he admitted it. This time, even his grandmother, who was always fond of Zhu'er, did not say anything.

However, he was still unwilling to accept this, especially when he thought of Gu Jinzhu's peerlessly beautiful face. She was not only a hundred times better than the young miss of the Yang family!

Thinking of the love they had in the past, he couldn't help but beg his mother again. Madam Chen couldn't change his mind and suddenly thought of the benefits of marrying two girls together.

Even though he felt it was absurd to be an ordinary wife, he really had no other choice.

Although there was a trace of guilt in his heart, he thought that it was fortunate that both sides were big, so he wouldn't feel wronged. Moreover, he only had her in his heart, so he could be nicer to her after passing the door.

As for the young miss of the Yang family, she was only marrying him as a decoration, Zhu'er would definitely understand his actions.

With this thought in mind, he suddenly felt that he was right. Right now, this was the only way to get the two of them together. Compared to the two of them being together for a long time, what was this little hindrance?

Therefore, he had already made his preparations. No matter how much Pearl got angry, he would do whatever he wanted to scold her. As long as he could persuade her to change her mind, he would.

When he thought of this, he suddenly felt a surge of courage. He actually grabbed her slender white hand, raised his face, and stubbornly looked at her with scorching eyes, "Zhu'er, listen to me. I did this because we are together. Although it is an equal wife, in my heart, you are the only wife …"

Unfortunately, before he finished speaking, the young girl in front of him had a change in expression. Gu Jinzhu's hand was held by him, and she was ashamed and angry. She thought of an unfamiliar uncle sitting in the car, and her face started burning.
