Du Shujian couldn’t bear to listen any longer inside the room. Wasn’t the Gong Family here just to force him to marry Gong Fangyue?
He closed his eyes briefly and walked out: "You don’t need to force my mom anymore. She can’t make decisions for me. Since everyone is so miserable, why don’t I just turn myself in?"
These words stunned everyone present. What did Du Shujian just say?
Du Shujian noticed their reaction and deliberately said in a provoking manner, "What, are you all so happy you’re dumbfounded?"
Zhang Xiaolu was the first to react: "Son, are you crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?"
The Gong Family didn’t dare to push any further. If they really pushed Du Shujian into turning himself in, then the Du and Gong Families would become enemies. That’s not what they wanted; they wanted a union, not a feud.
For a moment, the Gong Family didn’t know what to say.
A bystander spoke up: "Hurry up, I have places to be. You’re really dragging things out."
Zhang Xiaolu felt utterly humiliated: "You all should go back first. I’ll discuss things with my son and inform you as soon as there’s news."
Just before the Du Family could reach a decision, trouble struck the Gong Family. Someone reported them, and many illegal items were found in their home. The entire Gong Family was sent to the Northwest.
The Gong Family blamed the Du Family for this, believing that their downfall was the only way to stop threatening the Du Family.
When the Du Family received the news, Zhang Xiaolu was relieved: "Luckily, we didn’t agree yesterday, or else we would’ve been dragged into this mess."
