Chapter 06: Easy to ask Buddha, difficult to send Buddha

Su Wan lived until the age of 24 in her previous life, single and never been in a relationship.

This body is 16 years old, married at a young age.

Gu Huaizhi really wants to divorce her.

But her personality is really bad.

Stubborn, but also soft-hearted.

Gu Huaizhi tries to drive her away, but Su Wan refuses to leave.

Especially when the little girl pitifully says to her, “Sister-in-law, my second brother and I will eat less and work more to earn money. When we grow up, we will give you the same kind of life you had before.”

Su Wan lowered her eyes and stared at the gray money bag in her hand. The mouth of the bag was worn white and had a patch on it.

The original owner did many ridiculous things, but Mother Gu still believed in her once and gave her this family.

For the sake of a harmonious family.

Su Wan can’t leave freely.

What’s more, she is now penniless, staying is her best choice. After getting familiar with the situation in Chu country and earning some money, she will help Gu Huaizhi to cure his illness, which can be considered as repaying the debt to the Gu family.

In the days to come, the sky is high and the birds are free, and the sea is wide enough for fish to leap!

Su Wan immediately made up her mind.

“Now you want to divorce me, why didn’t you do it earlier? If you have the ability, you won’t let the wedding sedan enter in the first place.”

Su Wan pointed at the divorce letter with her slender fingers, and her clear eyes were full of mockery: “Haven’t you heard that it’s easy to invite a Buddha but hard to send him away?”

Gu Huaizhi’s eyes narrowed. In this dimly lit room, it was even more obscure and bottomless. His eyes sharpened as he stared at Su Wan.

She was very relaxed, casually glancing at the divorce letter, folding it neatly, and stuffing it into her sleeve along with the money bag.

Su Wan raised her head, her clear and bright eyes met Gu Huaizhi’s dark and cold eyes. The man’s tightly pursed thin lips showed extreme indifference, faintly carrying a hint of suppressed anger.

Is it because of her ignorance?

Or is it because of her arrogance and recklessness?

Su Wan’s expression was disdainful, and she sneered coldly, “I, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s mansion, how can I be discarded just because you say so? Even if you have given up, it is only when I am tired of you that I will kick you away.”

Gu Huaizhi’s temples throbbed, his jaw tightened, and he clenched his fists, the blue veins on the back of his hand looking fierce.

His engagement to Su Mixue was arranged by his father when he was alive. Half a year ago, the Marquis’s mansion sent people to set the wedding date, and his mother asked him to fulfill his father’s last wish.

When it was time for the wedding night, he lifted the red veil and found that Su Wan’s mouth was gagged and her hands were bound.

After removing the cloth from her mouth, he realized that she had been switched with someone else. She was the legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s mansion, not his original fiancée, Su Mixue.

Gu Huaizhi was prepared to send her back and annul the engagement.

But, his mother stopped him, “Son, you’ve already paid respects to the heavens and the earth. If you send her back, how can this innocent girl live? She’s also a poor soul, lost her mother at a young age, and then her stepmother came in and she had her father let her come to our house and suffer, and let Su Mixue marry into a wealthy family and live a comfortable life.”

“When Su Wan returns to the Marquis’s mansion, will she have a good life? You lifted the red veil, so you have to take responsibility for her.”

Gu Huaizhi greatly respected his mother, and under her persuasion, he temporarily compromised.

Little did he know, he had left behind a disaster!

Gu Huaizhi’s cold gaze fell on her face, and his voice was as cold as a blade as he warned: “Su Wan, if you harm anyone from the Gu family, I won’t spare you!”

Su Wan met his eyes, where deep abyss-like coldness lurked, emitting a chilling hostility that made one’s heart tremble.

Su Wan wasn’t afraid of him, but she knew this man was serious, and his tolerance had reached its limit.
