Chapter 109: You’re Up To No Good!
Sister Qiao glanced over and asked: “Who are you looking for?”
Gu Wenbo saw Lu Qiaoge and flashed a hint of embarrassment, but he didn’t speak, and it was obvious he wanted to turn around.
The female comrade lifted her head, still clutching her collar, her eyes red, and said: “We’re here to register our marriage.”
Sister Qiao: ……
No way, everyone who comes here to register marriage is beaming with joy, what does red eyes mean?
Was she forced into it?
She said seriously: “Sister Hua took the morning off for something, come back this afternoon.”
Lu Qiaoge couldn’t pretend not to know him, so she greeted: “Brother Gu.”
Gu Wenbo was clearly full of worries, only forcing a tug at the corner of his mouth toward Lu Qiaoge.
Sister Qiao looked again and again, then suddenly realized: “Oh, aren’t you the Xiao Gu who pulled vegetables that day?”
And just then, two middle-aged women hurried in from outside, heading straight for Gu Wenbo and that young woman.
One of them grabbed Gu Wenbo’s arm, patting his back while scolding: “You bastard, marriage isn’t child’s play, how can you do it out of spite, this is a lifetime thing, even if you’re not responsible for yourself, you have to be responsible for the young woman.”
Lu Qiaoge took a special look at her; this woman was perceptive. Looking at her features, she should be Brother Gu’s mother, right?
The other one did the same, holding the young woman’s hand and scolding bitterly: “Look at you, you silly girl, you can’t gamble with your lifetime happiness, it’s not the old society anymore, there is divorce after marriage, if he changes his heart just break up, what’s the big deal, you two…… this this this is just fooling around?”
There were several people in the general office who weren’t busy anymore, all looking over here.
These two young people weren’t partners, yet they came to register marriage?
This was too impulsive.
And just then, two more young men and women hurried in.
The young woman among them had anger all over her face, pointing at the first young woman and shouting: “Liu Cuixia, stop pretending to be innocent here. Back then you spread rumors between me and Brother Zhendong, saying I liked Gu Wenbo, and imitated my handwriting to write a letter insulting him to Brother Zhendong. Now the truth is out, what’s wrong with me and Brother Zhendong being together? Even if we register marriage right away it wouldn’t be a problem. You’re really shameless, liking to grab everything, even registering marriage has to be grab bed ahead of us……”
Oh, the first young woman was called Liu Cuixia.
Liu Cuixia burst into tears, choking: “You’re slandering me. You told me yourself you didn’t like Brother Zhendong. I never imitated your handwriting to write to him. After he read the letter and came to ask me, I just relayed your words to him. Later Brother Zhendong said he liked me and wanted to be with me, I like him too, so we started dating. You knew about it back then. You’re just regretting it because you haven’t found anyone better than Brother Zhendong. And how much better are you? You dated Gu Wenbo, Gu Wenbo and Gu Zhendong are cousins, aren’t you using this opportunity to get close to Brother Zhendong? Now you’ve got your wish, yet you’re turning around to slander me. Wang Xiaomin, what evidence do you have that I wrote that letter? It’s clearly your own handwriting.”
The later young woman was Wang Xiaomin. She was so angry her face flushed red: “Even if I didn’t like Gu Zhendong, I had no reason to insult him. That letter wasn’t written by me, I can go to the police station to verify the handwriting. Besides, just because I said I didn’t like him, you could take advantage? You’re just ill-intentioned!”
Liu Cuixia flushed red too: “Then let’s go to the police station to verify the handwriting. It’s not mine, what do I have to fear?”
By this point, everyone basically understood.
Gu Zhendong liked Wang Xiaomin, but there was a misunderstanding and they didn’t get together, so Gu Zhendong started dating Wang Xiaomin’s best friend Liu Cuixia, then Wang Xiaomin started dating Gu Zhendong’s cousin Gu Wenbo.
They were all discussing marriage, but after the two cleared up the misunderstanding—well, it couldn’t quite be called a misunderstanding, the truth was only known to Wang Xiaomin and Liu Cuixia.
But maybe even they didn’t know.
So let’s call it a misunderstanding for now. After explaining this misunderstanding clearly, Gu Zhendong and Wang Xiaomin rekindled their love, decided to break up with their respective partners, and marry their true loves.
Then the two who got dumped came to register marriage in a fit of anger?
This was a bit too childish.
What Lu Qiaoge asked was Gu Wenbo: “Brother Gu, why do you want to register marriage with Liu Cuixia?”
Gu Wenbo wiped his face, looked at his silent cousin Gu Zhendong standing there with a complicated expression, and said straightforwardly: “I was very angry, really angry. I had no idea Zhendong liked Wang Xiaomin. If he had told me the truth, I wouldn’t have taken someone’s love. But both of them hid it from me, treating me like a foolish person. I was indeed acting out of momentary anger.”
He looked at Liu Cuixia: “Sorry, this decision was too absurd. I was blinded by anger too. Actually, I regretted it as soon as I entered the neighborhood committee. It’s not fair to you, and I don’t want to be so hasty. Sorry!”
Gu Mama next to him finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If they really registered, it would truly be a joke.
Fortunately Sister Hua wasn’t here.
Huang Juan spoke up at the right moment: “Now marriage is free, dating is free too. As long as you don’t do immoral things, us elders won’t interfere in young people’s affairs. Since everything’s clear now, go do what you need to do.”
Gu Wenbo clenched his teeth hard, glanced at Wang Xiaomin, a flash of pain in his eyes. This woman really turned hostile without mercy.
He turned and walked out.
Liu Cuixia wiped her tears, her expression also pained, seeming very unwilling.
Wang Xiaomin showed a victorious smile.
She turned to Gu Zhendong and said: “Brother Zhendong, let’s come early this afternoon.”
Gu Zhendong hadn’t looked at Liu Cuixia from start to finish, as if his eyes only had Wang Xiaomin.
He smiled at her, very gently: “Okay, we’ll be the first ones this afternoon.”
Liu Cuixia was stimulated by this scene and suddenly shouted sharply: “If you dare register, I’ll dare jump into Hongxing Lake. Don’t believe me? Just wait to collect my body. Even if I die, I won’t let you off!”
The woman beside her was clearly Liu Cuixia’s mother. She trembled as she slapped her daughter’s face: “Who are you threatening with suicide? If you die, you’ll just die, they’ll still get married and have kids. You idiot, it’s not like there are no men in the world. Gu Zhendong is fickle, not a good thing at all. Saying this, what use is it besides angering me to death?”
Wang Xiaomin jumped up in anger: “Liu Cuixia, have some shame. Just because he broke up with you, you’re threatening to die? Who are you scaring? It’s not like I forced you to die. Whether you live or die is none of my business.”
Liu Cuixia wiped her tears, staring at the silent Gu Zhendong: “Gu Zhendong, you can break up with me, you can marry someone else, but if you marry Wang Xiaomin, I’ll…… I’ll hang myself at the main door of your new house!”
These words were really quite scary.
Even the arrogant Wang Xiaomin was frightened.
