Chapter 232: She Had No Idea About the Engagement
Chapter 232 She Didn’t Know About the Marriage Arrangement at All
Gu Minxing thought for a moment and said, "She said her name is Ye Rushui and that she’s Brother Dong’s childhood sweetheart from B City’s courtyard."
Gu Dongxing frowned: "She only said she is Ye Rushui, my childhood sweetheart, without mentioning she’s my fiancée or girlfriend?"
Suddenly, Gu Dongxing felt that Ye Rushui really didn’t know about the arranged marriage agreement with him before!
Gu Minxing shook his head: "No, initially she never mentioned that she’s your fiancée. It was only when our mom saw a Carp Jade Pendant on her neck and asked her: ’Are you Ye Shangshui’s granddaughter?’
She said yes. Then, she curiously asked my mom: ’Auntie, how do you know my grandfather’s name?’
My mom pointed to the Jade Pendant on her neck and said, ’Because of the Jade Pendant you are wearing.’ Ye Rushui had a puzzled look on her face and asked my mom: ’Auntie, do you recognize this Jade Pendant?’
My mom replied, ’Of course, I recognize it, because that Jade Pendant was originally ours. When our two families arranged the marriage agreement, it was given to your family. Didn’t your parents tell you?’
Ye Rushui looked very confused and said, ’When my mom gave me this pendant, she only told me it was very important but didn’t explain why it was important.’
Then, my mom said, ’Oh, your mom never told you? Back then, your grandfather and I arranged for you and Dongxing to be betrothed, and I wore this pendant at that time, so I left the pendant as a token for you. I didn’t expect that your grandfather still remembered this marriage and even had you come to celebrate my birthday.’
Ye Rushui seemed a bit shocked and also ecstatic; anyway, she was extremely excited.
