Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Chapter 1202 Mysterious Man (5)

“The two of you grew up together, so it’s obvious that you like each other. It’s indeed better to avoid an inter-generational marriage, but… it doesn’t matter that much either. The two of you are not related by blood, and you belong to different families. What are you afraid of?

“It wouldn’t matter if you didn’t like each other, but both of you love each other. Jiang Xun is so good to you too. Hasn’t he doted on you all these years? Jiang Xun himself had no family. Everyone has seen how hard he has worked all these years. Why does he do that?

“Isn’t it because he’s afraid that he can’t afford to provide for the Gu family’s granddaughter if she marries him? His cousins are all so capable, so he doesn’t want your standard of living to be lowered after you marry him, resulting in you leaving your current circle. Do you want to give up on a man like that just because of a small matter of family hierarchy?”

Gu Qingyao had been reborn, so she treasured everything

It was true that hierarchy was important, but they had no choice. Jiang Xun’s aunt had married Mo Beihan’s older brother and had children.

Otherwise, this matter of hierarchy would not cause Jiang Xun and Gu Fangting any trouble.

Someone who was particular about such things might feel that it was inappropriate. Gu Qingyao felt that if they were not in love, it would not matter and they could avoid this taboo.

But they loved each other and were deeply attached to each other! They had courted for six years without any problems. It would be a pity to give up on a man like that just because of hierarchy.

Where would she find another man who would treat her as well as Jiang Xun?

“I’m not giving up!”

Gu Fangting hurriedly said, “Older Cousin, I’m not giving up. I know how good Brother Jiang Xun has been to me all these years. He has no parental support but has to take care of his younger brother. Grandma Jiang’s grandchildren have returned to their family, so he can only depend on himself.

“All these years, he was worried that he could not compare with the others. He was afraid that you would despise him and not allow me to marry him. He has been working so hard that Grandma Jiang can’t bear to see it. She helps him, and Cousin-in-law has always been helping him. He has never felt like an outsider receiving charity. He has always been very grateful and has worked very hard and fought very hard. He’s wonderful, really wonderful!”

“Then what is the matter with the two of you? Has Jiang Xun drawn back?”

“No!” Gu Fangting immediately protested.

“No, he has always wanted to marry me.”

“Then what is the matter? Tell me!”

Gu Fangting began to cry. “Actually, actually it’s nothing major, just… just… that the Gu family has progressed faster and faster, and we have become such a tempting target. So many people would like to join us. Fourth and Fifth Cousins’ businesses have grown so fast. We have power and wealth. In our family, you’re already married, so that only leaves me.”

Gu Qingyao frowned. “Is someone eyeing

you?”

Gu Fangting nodded. “A marriage alliance is the most stable way of building a cooperative relationship with a family. The Gu family has many men. Although I’m just a granddaughter, I was brought up in the Gu family, and right now, I’m the only girl. Many boys are eyeing me. They want to marry me to build a connection with the Gu family.

“Older Cousin, if they marry me, Cousin-in-law will be their in-law. The Gu sons will be their older cousins. Who wouldn’t want something so tempting?

“But my boyfriend is Jiang Xun. Jiang Xun has nothing. Compared to those noble young men, he has too little. So they want to destroy our relationship. That’s why they’re always causing Brother Jiang Xun trouble. I…”
