Chapter 21: Marriage? I Never Cared About It!
Qi Fufang wanted to continue cursing, but Gu Feiyan forcefully cut her off!
She said coldly, “Alright, if you want to cancel the engagement, then let’s get down to business. Let me ask you, tonight, only you from the Qi Clan are here to represent your brother to annul the engagement, right?”
Qi Fufang was extremely disdainful. “The fact that we are here personally is already out of consideration for the late Old Man Gu. What else do you want to ask for?”
Gu Feiyan laughed softly. “As the saying goes, both parents die, the eldest sister becomes the mother. It’s been hard on you to accompany Qi Yu as the eldest sister!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall fell into silence. Not to mention the Qi siblings, even Great Elder Gu and his wife were stunned, unable to react for a moment.
Both parents had died, and the eldest young mistress was their mother?
Gu Feiyan, this… What did that mean? Why did she suddenly say such words?
Qi Fufang pondered and suddenly exploded on the spot like gunpowder being ignited. “Gu Feiyan, you dare to curse my parents!? You’re courting death!”
Gu Feiyan was not afraid, and her expression was serious as she said, “The matter of the engagement, the orders of the parents, and the words of the matchmaker is the same. No matter if the engagement is to end, those whose parents are still alive must attend!”
Qi Fufang was speechless, but Gu Feiyan was still serious as she questioned. “A junior sister of your generation brought her little brother here to end the engagement. Didn’t your parents die already? What else could it be?”
There was complete silence.
Don’t even mention Qi Fufang, even the expression on the face of the always high-spirited Qi Yu was red. Who knows if it was due to embarrassment or anger. Second Master Gu and his wife looked at each other. They really didn’t understand. All the girls from the Gu Clan were very gentle. Where did this ability of Gu Feiyan come from?
Qi Fufang wanted to retort, but she couldn’t. She was so angry that her lungs were about to burst, and she slammed the table as she stood up, shouting angrily, “Gu Feiyan, how dare you insult our Qi Clan! If you want to court death, I’ll grant you your wish right now! ”
“Gu Feiyan, you really deserve to be taught a lesson!” Qi Yu finally couldn’t sit still any longer.
In fact, he had wanted to end the engagement years ago, but he was afraid of being labeled as ‘despising the poor and currying favor with the rich’ for breaking his word. Of course, the main reason was that he didn’t want to marry Princess Huaining that quickly, so he hadn’t tried to break off the engagement. After all, the Qi and Gu Clan were once very close, their relationship extremely good. More than ten years ago, his grandfather had taken the initiative to marry him to the Gu Clan.
He never expected that Gu Feiyan, who had always known her place, would feed the life-saving medicine to Cheng Yifei, and even personally feed him, creating so much gossip, putting a green hat on his head. He could not tolerate this humiliation for even a moment! When he rushed back to the city from the western camp, he didn’t wake up his sleeping parents. Instead, he pulled his elder sister along with him and came over. As far as he was concerned, to a poor family like the Gu Clan who had no status at all, annulling the engagement was only a matter of a few sentences.
Who would have thought that Gu Feiyan would actually turn into a different person. She had a sharp tongue and was extremely daring!
Qi Yu clenched his fists and suppressed his anger. Qi Fufang really wanted to teach her a lesson.
At this time, Second Master Gu finally recovered from his shock. He slapped the table and stood up, and berated angrily, “Absolutely lawless! Lawless! Gu Feiyan, you stupid girl! I order you to immediately apologize to Miss Qi and the young general. Do not go against clan rules!”
Madam Wang was even more afraid of causing trouble. Not daring to tarry any longer, she quickly shouted, “Someone come! Someone! Hurry up and pour tea. The young miss is confused and said something wrong. She has to offer tea to the Qi Clan’s guest to compensate them.”
Qi Fufang did not buy it. A complicated look flashed across Qi Yu’s eyes, and he quickly gestured for her to sit down.
Qi Fufang sat down unwillingly. Actually, she was feeling a bit regretful in her heart. If she knew that Gu Feiyan’s mouth was so strong, she wouldn’t have made a sound and let Second Master Gu speak. Second Master Gu teaching Gu Feiyan a lesson, that was the right and proper thing to do!
Soon, the room was quiet again. A servant brought a cup of tea to Gu Feiyan.
Gu Feiyan glanced at it and clenched her fists. She didn’t move for a long time. She looked towards her uncle, Second Master Gu. She was disappointed for the original owner and the deceased Old Master, but she despised Second Master Gu more.
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and apologize!” Second Master Gu ordered sternly.
Gu Feiyan took a deep breath. Her eyes slowly fell on that cup of tea, and she held the teacup with both hands.
Seeing this, the corners of Qi Yu’s lips curled up, filled with disdain. He hated this kind of talkative and conceited woman the most. So what if she was eloquent? Even if she had no status or identity, she would still obediently admit defeat!
Qi Fufang’s heart finally felt comfortable as she adjusted her sitting posture and waited arrogantly.
And yet…
Gu Feiyan did not bring the tea to them, but suddenly raised her head and drank it in one gulp, and then she arrogantly smashed the teacup.
The original owner was timid and weak, afraid that Second Uncle would kick her out of his house. She, Gu Feiyan, was not afraid at all!
She said coldly, “Apologize? Don’t even think about it. If you want to end the engagement, then I will allow it! Even if you don’t come back, I’ll leave from the palace tomorrow morning to return! This Miss has never cared about this marriage, so don’t take yourself too seriously! The reason this Miss has returned today is to teach you all how to write the word ‘respect’!”
After she finished speaking, she slowly tidied up her messy hair and brushed up her worn-out cotton jacket. She elegantly turned around and strode out, leaving everyone in the room stunned.
Just like that?
Wasn’t it to find an excuse to reject the marriage that Gu Feiyan had argued for so long? Wasn’t it to negotiate with them? How could it be purely for the sake of fighting over the word “respect”?
Qi Yu was the most shocked. He was stabbed by Gu Feiyan’s “never cared” remark. At this moment, he looked at Gu Feiyan’s free and easy back and felt that it was incomparably dazzling.
How many women have dreamed of being his wife! Even the current Princess was sticking to him on her own accord. How could Gu Feiyan not care? How could she give up without even discussing the conditions?
No, he didn’t believe it!
Gu Feiyan was definitely putting on a show!
“Gu Feiyan, stop right there!”
Gu Feiyan turned around and said unhappily, “If you have something to say, then say it quickly. If you have to fart, then release it. I’m tired!”
“How vulgar! What game are you playing, Gu Feiyan? You, a little medicine girl, have held the title of General Qi’s future wife for so many years. Are you still not satisfied? Just how are you willing to break off the engagement? ”
It was unknown if it was because of the original owner, but Gu Feiyan had a strange hatred for the Qi Clan. When she heard this, she said in a bad mood, “Qi Yu, if you don’t understand human language, then I’ll say it one last time. I, Gu Feiyan, don’t care about this marriage. I don’t want to marry you. From tonight onwards, our marriage contract has been dissolved. You can marry whoever you want! Stop bothering me! Also, please send an announcement tomorrow to inform the world that we no longer have anything to do with each other!”
He had always been popular everywhere he went, and he had never been so despised before. His face suddenly felt like it was burning.

Qi Fufang and the others were in disbelief.
A hint of complexity flashed in Qi Fufang’s eyes, she quickly took out a marriage annulment contract and threw it to Gu Feiyan, “Gu Feiyan, if what you’re saying is true, then sign this!”
Only then did Gu Feiyan remember that there was still the marriage annulment contract. She opened it and was about to sign it, but then realized that something was wrong…
