Chapter 1 The Fiancé’s Betrayal_1
"This is fifty thousand yuan. Take it and don't come back here anymore!" Mrs. Gu's cold voice was tinged with impatience. The only reason she was willing to part with this money today was because of her birthday.
Looking at the bulging brown paper bag, Ji Yunhuan said awkwardly, "Aunt Gu, I didn't come here today for money."
It was Mrs. Gu's birthday today. She had come here merely to pay her respects as a junior.
"You don't have to be polite with me." Mrs. Gu gave her a cold look and said, "Consider it a debt our Yubai owes you. Just let him go! Look at yourself now. What do you even look like? Having a fiancée like you is a disgrace to the Gu Family."
"Aunt Gu..."
"I know your brother is in the hospital with high expenses. Your salary isn't much, and fifty thousand is already a lot for you. Over these years, you've taken quite a bit from the Gu Family. People have their pride. I think you're not somebody who's shameless!"
What she meant was that if Ji Yunhuan continued pestering, she would be shameless.
Sitting on the sofa, Ji Yunhuan maintained her indifferent demeanor, but her heart was icy cold. The Aunt Gu she remembered wasn't this indifferent. Back when her parents were alive, Aunt Gu was extremely gentle whenever she came to their home or whenever Ji Yunhuan visited the Gu Family Residence. She treated Ji Yunhuan like her own daughter.
But it's only been five years since her parents passed. Aunt Gu's attitude had changed drastically, from initial perfunctory politeness to unabashed loathing.
She knew she was an unwanted presence.
However, she also knew very clearly that despite everything, she was still Gu Yubai's fiancée.
