Chapter 567: Chapter 567: Republic of China Gentlewoman Divorced Wife VS Amorous Actor (Part 21)

Gu Shengyin had finally managed to soothe Madam Yan, convincing her that she hadn’t suffered outside and had made her rest well afterward, she just felt that this was more exhausting than anything else.

The next day hadn’t even dawned when someone came knocking on the door.

Mother Lin walked to Gu Shengyin’s bedside and looked at her young mistress, who was still drowsy, feeling some heartache.

However, since Old Master Yan had sent for her, she had no choice but to wake Gu Shengyin: "Miss, please wake up, the Old Master has sent someone for you."

Gu Shengyin felt incredibly helpless as she got up, dressed herself, tidied up, and left the courtyard just as a sliver of light was breaking across the sky.

The hall was unlit, pitch-black. Coupled with the old furniture inside, it gave off an eerie, sinister feel.

Although Gu Shengyin was not afraid of these, it still fully awakened her.

She found it strange that just yesterday Old Master Yan had acted as if he wished he had no daughter and preferred never to see her again in his lifetime, yet so early today he had already sent for her?

She genuinely performed her courtesies and respectfully stood to the side, eyes cast down as she waited for him to state his purpose.

Old Master Yan originally wanted to snub his daughter, but after waiting a long while and realizing she stood leisurely without a hint of anxiety or hesitation on her face, he found himself getting angry instead.

"I have found you a fine marriage prospect. The family’s circumstances are no worse than the Loo Family’s, and they don’t mind that you’ve been married before. You are to go to Cloud City tomorrow, gather your dowry and bring it back, and prepare to be married," Old Master Yan announced his decision.

What?

Gu Shengyin lifted her head in surprise. She had just returned home from a divorce yesterday, and today he had already arranged a marriage for her?

Given Old Master Yan’s words from yesterday, she didn’t believe this marriage prospect could be "good" at all.

"Father, I do not wish to marry at this time," Gu Shengyin responded as she had the system check on who Old Master Yan had recently been in contact with.

"Ridiculous!" Old Master Yan felt a wave of angry indignation upon hearing her words, "You say you won’t marry? You, a woman living alone outside, what do you think others will say about our Yan family? I’m telling you, either you obediently get married, or you had better take three feet of white silk and end yourself, not living to disgrace our family!"

At this time, the results from the system also came out.

Gu Shengyin looked on with an unstoppable cold laugh inside: It really was a "fine" family indeed—the old man had a grandson who could already walk, two sons, and four daughters, the youngest of whom was only two years older than Ruohua.

She was going there to serve as their mother and grandmother!

Old Master Yan had never truly seen Ruohua as a daughter.

Since that was the case, there was no need to save his face anymore.

Gu Shengyin scoffed, "The Li Family, right? I recall Old Master Li is even a few years older than you, aren’t he? My divorce was a disgrace to the Yan family, so becoming in-laws with Old Master Li won’t be disgraceful? The face of the Yan family is actually on your mouth, right?"

Old Master Yan’s face turned a ghastly shade of blue, his hand shaking violently as he pointed at Gu Shengyin: "You... you get out!"

Gu Shengyin caught on to his words: "Please don’t anger yourself to sickness; otherwise, I’d also bear the stigma of being unfilial. I’ll do as told and get out. If you dislike it, I can return to Cloud City and ensure I never come back to upset you."
