“It’s a misunderstanding, it’s a misunderstanding!”

Liu Zhihe’s face stiffened slightly, and his mind quickly shifted gears. Then, he hastily put on a smile and said, “Director, this is a complete misunderstanding. Today, we came here with Zhengping to discuss the marriage between him and An’an with Old Gu. We had no other intentions, really!”

Seeing this, he turned sideways and gave Gu Jianguo a harsh glance, his gaze becoming somewhat ominous, urging the man to quickly speak up and clarify the situation.

Sensing the threat in the deputy director and his wife’s eyes, Gu Jianguo could only nod and agree. “Yes, yes, yes, Director Liu and the others thought that since An’an will be turning eighteen in three months’ time, they were thinking of bringing forward the wedding banquet .”

“Old Gu!”

“Father! What are you talking about? They were clearly asking me to marry into the Liu family… Mmm…” Before Gu Nana could finish speaking, Gu Jianguo grabbed her and covered her mouth with his large palm.

Seeing this, Wu Chunhua sneered. “Hey, do you mean that there’s something wrong with An’an’s ears? Do you also think we’re deaf?

“We heard everything you said just now. Are you trying to shirk responsibility? Sure, An’an. Go and find Chief Luo from the neighborhood committee and let them uphold justice!”

“Okay, I’ll go now!” Gu An’an nodded with tears in her eyes. With that, she turned around and was about to walk out.

“Wait a minute!”

“You’re not allowed to go!”

“Auntie…” Gu An’an stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Wu Chunhua uneasily.

“Gu Jianguo, is this how you usually treat An’an? Huh?” With a tug on his coat by his own wife, Director Yang immediately got the hint and sternly questioned Gu Jianguo.

The lingering tone when he asked the question sent shivers down the spines of Gu Jianguo and Liu Mei’e.

“No, no, Director. I was just speaking out of turn. My tone was…”

Gu Jianguo’s voice was becoming softer and softer. In the end, he swallowed his words. Director Yang’s gaze was piercing like a cold knife. It looked absolutely terrifying.

Liu Zhengping’s mother cursed under her breath at her son’s cowardice. Then, she walked forward with a smile and reached out to grab Wu Chunhua’s hand, but she missed.

Her expression froze for a moment before she said with a smile, “Sister Wu, let’s talk things out. It won’t be good for anyone if we really go to the neighborhood office to settle this matter.”

“Don’t you think so?”

“It’s no good for your son and Gu Nana. It has nothing to do with our An’an!” Wu Chunhua didn’t buy her words at all, maintaining a cold and indifferent demeanor, without a hint of civility in her tone.

Jiang Mei was speechless. She was gritting her teeth so hard that they were about to crack.

“Have you thought it through? Do you want to settle things now, or do you want to leave it to the neighborhood office?” After a while, Wu Chunhua spoke again. Her tone was extremely stern. “Jiang Mei, let me tell you, although An’an’s mother is no longer around, Old Yang and I are still around. There’s no way we will allow anyone to bully her!”

Jiang Mei was so angry that she could feel a fire raging in her heart. The smile on her face disappeared as she gritted her teeth and asked, “Tell me then, how should we deal with this?”

Since the couple had influence and power, they could easily crush someone to death. Wu Chunhua’s man was the factory director, so she and Old Liu could not refute them at all.

“Hmph! You finally said something decent.”

Wu Chunhua snorted and pulled Gu An’an to her side with a gentle expression. “An’an, what do you plan to do about their misconduct? Shall we report it and let the neighborhood committee take action, or…”

Whoosh!

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Gu An’an in unison, nervously waiting for her answer.

“Auntie, I choose to break off the engagement! A man who has been with another woman and unable to control his desires is not worthy of my lifetime commitment!”

At this point, Gu An’an suddenly looked up and swept her gaze over Liu Zhengping. The few of them, who were already feeling nervous, became even more uneasy.
