Chapter 147 - 147: Postponing the Wedding Date



If it had been anyone else disparaging the Lin family, Lin Cheng wouldn’t have bothered to confront them. But it had to be Lin Miao.

He couldn’t fathom why. The Lin family had consistently shielded her, yet upon leaving, she could turn around and strike back like a venomous serpent.

Just because they weren’t her blood relatives anymore, did all the bonds they once shared become null and void?

This time, he wasn’t willing to compromise or cower. Addressing Gu Shan and his wife, he said, “Mr. and Mrs. Gu, I just want to clarify this once. The Su family’s gift money was indeed stolen, but the Lin family never proposed that

Gu Zi replace Lin Miao to marry Su Shen.”

“Yes, while Gu Zi is willing to marry Su Shen, the Lin family absolutely didn’t pocket the gift money and scheme for their daughter to marry in Lin Miao’s place, as she claimed,” Li Hua affirmed in a hushed tone.

Li Hua almost revealed her encounter with MO Li but halted herself, recollecting Gu Zi’s plea to keep the matter confidential.

Gu Shan and his wife were taken aback by this revelation. They recollected that indeed, Lin Miao had accused the Lin family of accepting the gift money and pressuring Gu Zi to marry in her place.

However, now the Lin family refuted this claim. This could only mean Lin Miao fabricated the accusation.

Yet, they couldn’t bring themselves to believe their innocent and kind-hearted daughter would harbor such thoughts. A moment of silence ensued.

The Gong couple beside them furrowed their brows. If the Lin family’s claims were accurate, then wasn’t Lin Miao orchestrating a ploy to persuade Gu Zi to assist in her marriage? Their thoughts grew darker.

Observing this, they were more inclined to believe the Lin family’s account. If they truly accepted the gift money and agreed for their biological daughter to marry instead, there would be no need for them to confront Lin Miao here.

Furthermore, witnessing the honesty of these two Lin family members, it seemed evident they were furious and had hurried over.

Gong Zhan’s countenance darkened upon hearing the phrase, “Gu Zi is willing to marry Su Shen.” His heart chilled. How could that villager charm her so? Gu Zi truly had poor taste!

Lin Miao felt flustered under everyone’s scrutinizing gazes but being someone who had been reborn, she didn’t let her guilty conscience show.

Lowering her gaze, she bit back at Lin Cheng innocently, “You can defame me as you wish just because you’re Gu Zits brother now? I only mentioned it because I heard you say so. Now that you’re getting along well, do you want to pin all the blame on me?”

With that said, tears welled up in her eyes, and she began to enact her crying act once again.

Lin Cheng and Li Hua recognized that mask all too well. In the past, Lin Miao had worn it within the Lin family. Whatever she desired, tears became the tool to achieve it.

Regrettably, today they saw through the charade.

“Lin Miao, how can you lie so blatantly?” Lin Cheng expressed in anguish. ‘Who is actually slandering whom?”

Li Hua observed her husband’s distress and was no longer reserved. Standing up, she addressed Lin Miao, “Lin Miao, have you forgotten how Lin Cheng used to shield you? He didn’t fear getting hurt to protect you. How could such a person slander you?”

Li Hua’s final question struck deep. Lin Miao had no defense against it.

She could only fault the Lin family for being exceedingly kind to her in the

past. But even though the Lin family was kind, what did it matter considering their poverty?

The timing was too coincidental for Lin Cheng and Li Hua’s families to be present alongside the Gong Family. This discomforted Lin Miao further, especially since this occurred right before her marriage to Gong Zhan. Her animosity towards Gu Zi deepened.

Gu Zi must have told the Lin family these things! Gritting her teeth, Lin Miao’s lips turned pale.

Upon finishing their words, Li Hua and Lin Cheng departed together. The atmosphere between the families became tense.

Before the Gu family could respond, Mr. Gong intervened, “Gu Shan, I believe we can skip the meal today. Let’s delay the wedding for now. We’ll discuss it later when we have the time.”

He held a higher status, and the Gu family was subordinate. There was no need to beat around the bush.

The Gong Family only wanted to find a simple daughter-in-law. That’s how the Gu family even got this opportunity in the first place.

However, today indicated that this Lin Miao wasn’t a simple person at all. Further investigation was imperative.

Mr. Gong led his wife and son back to the courtyard. Gu Shan’s expression soured. He had lost all dignity at the courtyard entrance!

Back home, Gu Shan erupted in anger. He paced the living room and suddenly fixed Lin Miao with a gloomy stare.

“Why did you do that back then? If someone has something on you, it’ll haunt you forever!”

Gu Shan was also unwilling to believe that Lin Miao would tell such a lie, but even a fool could see that the Lin family was furious.

This was the first time he felt disappointed and angry at his biological daughter.. She was really too foolish!
