Chapter 246: Chapter 247: Brutally Violated
At the same time, the Jiang Family, in order to support Nianyang, also proposed to sever their familial ties with the Gu Family and to have Nianyang adopted into the Jiang Family.
The Gu Family was unwilling to accept this situation. With the Jiang Familyâs business booming and bound to become wealthier, they had been hoping to benefit from their familial connection once the Jiang Family prospered. Now, all their hopes were dashed.
Gu Yuandao ended up shooting himself in the foot and left in disgrace with his wife and daughter. Nianyang and Li Tingyan followed the Jiang Family back to their home.
With Nianyang safe and sound, Jiang Aiguo and Sun Li were relieved. Jiang Aiguo said to Nianyang,
"Yangyang, even though youâre not the daughter of the Gu Family, youâre still our recognized niece. Aâli and I are still your Uncle and Aunt!"
Sun Li, being more emotional as a woman, was worried that Nianyang would feel upset. After all, generally speaking, girls who find out their parents are not their biological ones tend to struggle with the news, right?
She held Nianyangâs hand and said, "Yangyang, if you donât mind, Aiguo and I will be your closest family from now on. You are so wonderful; you deserve better. Those ungrateful Gu Family members are not worthy to be your parents!"
Nianyang felt deeply warmed, "I know, having such good family as my Uncle and Aunt, who cares about the ungrateful Gu Family?"
"Yangyang, itâs so great that youâve come to terms with this!"
Seeing Nianyang completely unaffected, Sun Li breathed a sigh of relief, greeted Li Tingyan, and went to the kitchen, planning to cook a family meal together.
Nianyang pulled Li Tingyan to her room, couldnât help but laugh at the manâs still unemotional face, "Ah Yan, why arenât you comforting me?"
"Comfort you for what?" Li Tingyan sat next to Nianyang and wrapped his arm around her waist.
Nianyang tilted her head and smiled,
"Iâm not the biological daughter of the Gu Family, Aunt and Uncle are worried Iâll be upset, but you seem unconcerned. Donât you love me anymore?"
Li Tingyan showed a helpless smile, "I clearly love you, donât you feel it? Do you want me to dig out my heart and show you itâs filled only with you?"
Nianyang rolled her eyes at him, "Speak properly, Brother Li, why are you becoming so slick-tongued?"
Li Tingyan chuckled lightly, "Honestly, I suspected for a long time that you werenât born to the Gu family couple. Knowing you really arenât, Iâm actually happy for you because the parents of my Nini are not those vile people."
"Besides, I also know, you arenât really Gu Nianyang from before, or youâre not her at all, so you wouldnât be upset that they arenât your parents. Instead, you should be more relieved than anyone to finally break away from the Gu family couple, right?"
Nianyang was stunned, not expecting Li Tingyan to be so perceptive, he actually knew she wasnât Gu Nianyang anymore!
He... saw right through her!
"You..." Nianyang blinked, swallowed, suddenly cupped the manâs face, looking into his deep eyes, asked, "Then arenât you scared?"
"Why should I be scared?"
"You know Iâm not the original Gu Nianyang, what if Iâm like a ghost possessed, as in the TV shows, arenât you afraid Iâd do something bad?"
"Firstly, you wouldnât do anything bad, my Nini may appear strong but she has a kind heart..."
This was evident from her reckless efforts to heal people.
A wife this good, how could she do anything bad?
"Moreover, whether youâre human or ghost, I have already acknowledged you as my wife, I wonât fear you, Iâll only love you more."
