1327 Nullifying The Engagement
miss Chu Jie, this marriage was a mistake. Please don’t take it seriously. Jiang Yu said, ” the person who agreed to the marriage was the fake Mo Long, not the Mo Long in front of you.”
“I don’t care if you’re the real Mo Long or not. He has already agreed to the marriage, and everyone knows about this!” Chu Jie shouted, “I’m his fiancée!”
“Miss Chu Jie, don’t try to deceive yourself.” Jiang Yu said helplessly, “I met Mo Long before you. My engagement with him also happened before you.”
“So what? Could it be that your engagement is also known by everyone?” Chu Jie retorted indignantly, “if you’re not, why don’t you just quit?”
“Miss Chu Jie, are you joking?” Jiang Yu was so angry that she laughed.
Mo Long also frowned and said, “miss Chu Jie, please be clear about what you can say and what you can’t say.”
When Chu Jie heard Mo Long berate her, she could not help but feel a chill in her heart. She said in disbelief, “Mr. Mo Long, how can you reprimand me? I’m telling the truth. Other people don’t know about the engagement between the two of you, but everyone knows about our engagement. Since that’s the case, why don’t you just ask Jiang Yu to back out? This way, it won’t harm not only me, but also your reputation.”
“If you must marry a man with a fiancée, it will only damage your reputation.” Mo Long coldly said.
Chu Jie lost her voice for a moment. She leaned back on the sofa listlessly, her eyes dazed.
Seeing her like this, old master Chu couldn’t help but feel a sense of ‘disappointment’.
She was the daughter of the Chu family, yet she had fallen so low for a man.
He said, “miss Jiang Yu, in that case, I wish you and Mr. Mo Long a happy marriage. I’ll explain to the public that this engagement is void.”
“Then I’ll have to thank old master Chu.” Jiang Yu said.
However, when Chu Jie heard this, she immediately stood up from the sofa and shouted uncontrollably, “No, I don’t agree! The engagement can not be nullified! Grandpa, if the marriage is called off, how embarrassing would it be for the Chu family!”
Old master Chu knocked the floor with his walking stick and scolded, “Why must you marry a man who already has a fiancée? don’t you feel ashamed? It’s just a nullification of the engagement, we just need to explain it to the outside world.”
“No! I definitely won’t agree to it!” Chu Jie was so excited that her eyes turned red.
Actually, she wasn’t afraid that the Chu family would lose face. She just didn’t want to miss Mo Long, so she used the Chu family as an excuse.
However, old master Chu was determined to break off the engagement. No matter what Chu Jie said or how unreasonable she was, he would not change his mind.
“Jiang Rou, take your sister back to her room and let her calm down.” Old master Chu said in a deep voice, “I have something else to tell miss Jiang Yu. Don’t let your sister disturb us here.”
“I know, second Grandpa.”
Jiang Rou stood up and walked to Chu Jie’s side. Just as she reached out her hand, Chu Jie slapped it away.
“Don’t touch me!”
Chu Jie roared, picked up the empty teacup on the coffee table, and threw it on the ground.
The teacup broke into pieces with a “pa” sound. Chu Jie quickly bent down and picked up a large piece of debris, pressing it against her throat.
However, she was worried that she would be too ruthless and really cut her throat, so she took a step back and pressed the Shard against her wrist. She threatened, “Grandpa, if you dare to cancel the engagement, I’ll cut my wrist right now and die in front of you!”
“Chu Jie!” Jiang Rou frowned. “This is nonsense!”
“So what if you’re messing around?” Chu Jie laughed at herself. “I just don’t agree to cancel the engagement!”
Old master Chu’s face was dark as he sat on the sofa and glared at Chu Jie.
“Miss Chu Jie, you don’t have the final say in this matter.” Jiang Yu snorted coldly. “Besides, you won’t die from a cut on your wrist. There’s plenty of time to be rescued.”
“You …” Chu Jie was shocked and looked at Jiang Yu with an expression that was hard to describe.
“Alright, stop your nonsense.” Old master Chu said. “At this point, don’t you think you’ve lost enough face? It’s up to me to call off the engagement, so hurry up and go back to your room to calm down.”
Before Chu Jie could say anything, Jiang Rou forcefully brought her back to her room.
After the two of them had left, old master Chu said, “The engagement is nullified. You can rest assured about this.”
“Of course we’re not worried,” Jiang Yu smiled and said, “since old master Chu made the decision himself, we don’t have to worry anymore.”
