Chapter 203: 196: Getting married with a stolen household register (Second update)

“Aren’t you called Wang Shanxi?” Unfortunately, she heard that, “Young Master Guan.”

Wang Shanxi?

Madam Tan pricked up her ears to listen.

Guan Sixing’s expression was very anxious and panic-stricken as he explained, “Wang Shanxi is one of my students.”

So—

“You lied to me.”

Guan Sixing was not good at arguing, only able to clumsily respond, “I didn’t mean to lie to you.”

He was not skilled at lying.

Jhiang Youyou, thinking back now, although they hadn’t spent much time together, there indeed had been many suspicious aspects. When she called him Student Wang, he rarely responded. He never talked about his family. If he were just a student, it was also unlikely that he would be involved in The 7th Research Institute’s classified projects.

The truth was full of holes, but how had she not noticed it? Her older sister was right, love makes one blind.

“You know each other,” Jhiang Zhenghao seized the opportunity to interject, “Youyou, why didn’t you introduce him?”

Jhiang Youyou didn’t speak, unwilling to introduce Guan Sixing to Jhiang Zhenghao.

Guan Sixing came over, took her hand, and led her to Madam Tan, introducing her proactively, “Mom, this is my girlfriend.”

Jhiang Youyou withdrew her hand, “Nice to meet you, Madam Guan.”

Guan Sixing let his empty hand fall, his face showing a look of disappointment.

Madam Tan saw everything.

Madam Tan had also heard a bit about the rumors surrounding the Jhiang family’s fifth daughter, said to be dignified and virtuous, fond of embroidering at home. She had heard some negative comments from Mrs. Wang as well, saying the fifth daughter was scheming and aimed to marry above her station.

Having met her today, Madam Tan thought this girl had a certain resilience, looked quite thoughtful, and didn’t seem to be someone her father could easily manipulate. Plus, she was beautiful.

Radiantly beautiful, to the extent that she was more attractive than a movie star.

When Jhiang Zhenghao heard Guan Sixing’s introduction, he had a bigger reaction than Madam Tan, barely able to conceal his smirk, “So you are dating, Youyou, you really are something, not even mentioning it to me.”

Jhiang Zhenghao turned his head, his attitude as warm and familiar as if they were family, “Madam Guan, Young Master Guan, it’s cold outside, I’ll have someone brew a pot of hot tea, let’s go inside and chat.”

With his guess confirmed, Jhiang Zhenghao was overjoyed. It was the youngest daughter who was impressive, having caught a big fish with her first try. As long as the Guan Family could lend a little support…

Jhiang Youyou knew Jhiang Zhenghao all too well; that look on his face, like he’d seen a savior, made her feel utterly ashamed. What would Guan Sixing’s mother think of her?

Before, he was just the ordinary Student Wang, but now it was different; he had become the legend she had heard about even as an outsider.

How could she let a genius physicist be tainted by the Jhiang family’s mercenary ways?

“No need,” she declined Jhiang Zhenghao’s warm invitation, turned her back to pick up something that had fallen to the ground, stuffed it into her pocket, and said to Guan Sixing, “Let’s talk alone.”

She walked toward the back courtyard.

Guan Sixing immediately followed her.

The backyard was quiet, suitable for conversation. Jhiang Youyou stood beside the courtyard light, turned around, and instead of speaking immediately, she looked at Guan Sixing.

Guan Sixing was afraid of her calmness; he hoped she would argue with him. As Gu Yihuan’s fair-weather friends had said, if a girl is still willing to argue with you, it means she still cares. True disappointment, on the other hand, shows as silence and no quarrels.

“Youyou.”

He apologized tentatively, “I’m sorry, Youyou. I wanted to tell you, but couldn’t find the right moment,”

Initially, he was afraid to tell her, fearing she would be angry and never talk to him again, then her second sister had an accident, which was not an appropriate time to mention it, and afterward, he had gone to the research institute.

“Why did you say you were Wang Shanxi?”

“It was during the school physical exams. My student’s card ended up with me, and then you misunderstood.”

“Then why didn’t you explain?”

“Last time, on your birthday, I came to your house. You had too much to drink, said you liked male college students, and then you kissed me.” Guan Sixing pointed to a garden chair behind Jhiang Youyou, “Right there, but you don’t remember me.”

That was their first kiss.

She recalled nothing of it. At first, he was also angry, but because he liked her in his heart and wanted a possibility of a next step, he lied.

Jhiang Youyou turned to glance at the chair, a few vague memories flashing in her mind, but she did not delve deeper, admitting, “Alright, it’s all my fault.”

There was a resolute disregard in her tone.

Guan Sixing tried to take her hand, “It’s not like that, I was wrong.”

She pulled her hand away, her gaze becoming cold, “How could you be in the wrong, you are Young Master Guan, after all.”

“Youyou.”

Jhiang Youyou didn’t look at him, “Let’s break up.”

He suddenly panicked, his eyes reddening slightly with urgency, “I was wrong, please don’t break up with me, okay?” He was tongue-tied, not knowing how to retain her, just attempting to grasp her hand, daring only to hold one of her fingers, gently calling her name, “Youyou.”

If they got married, if they quarreled in the future, he surely would never win an argument against her.

Jhiang Youyou looked up at him, her beauty was the type that was stunning at first glance, still radiant when not smiling, very cold, and quite aloof, “Don’t you know? I like male college students, not research types like you. You don’t have time to be with me, you’re often unreachable, our relationship is meaningless. You should go back, no need to come in and sit.”

If you come in and sit, Jhiang Zhenghao will latch onto you.

His expression was filled with sorrow, eyes full of reluctance, “Youyou.”

She said angrily, “Don’t you understand what I’m saying?”

Of course, she was angry; having been deceived for so long, she had made all her plans, get married first, a surgeon’s salary wasn’t low, she could save a little bit here and there, not wear nice clothes, not buy expensive stuff, and once she had saved enough money, she would buy a smaller house. It didn’t matter if she had no car for commuting to work; just like her older sister said, she would be a romantic fool.

Guan Sixing slowly released her hand.

She stopped looking at his face, turned around, and walked away first, leaving him standing there, his hands and ears reddened by the cold wind.

At the side entrance, Jhiang Zhenghao caught up asking, “You and Young Master Guan—”

“He and I have nothing to do with each other.”

No sooner had she finished speaking, Jhiang Youyou looked up and saw Madam Tan approaching.

Jhiang Youyou quickened her pace towards the garage.

Jhiang Zhenghao apologized to Madam Tan, then, furious, chased after her to the garage, berating Jhiang Youyou for being inconsiderate, “Weren’t you two dating? How could you just leave your future mother-in-law outside like that?”

Mother-in-law?

He sure clung to relations fast.

“I broke up with Guan Sixing.”

Jhiang Zhenghao immediately cried out frantically, “Are you crazy? The Guan family has only one grandson, if you marry him—”

Jhiang Youyou felt suffocated, unable to listen further, “Stop dreaming, am I worthy? He was just playing with me, and now it’s over.”

Jhiang Zhenzhen was also in the garage.

Jhiang Youyou ran over, got into the car, and left Jhiang Zhenghao’s shouting and roaring behind, “Older sister, I’ll take your car home.”

Jhiang Zhenghao rushed over, trying to open the car door.

Jhiang Zhenzhen immediately locked it.

Jhiang Zhenghao banged on the glass, shouting from outside, “Jhiang Youyou, get out of the car!”

The car door was soundproofed well; they couldn’t hear anything from the inside.

Jhiang Zhenzhen was also a soft-hearted person, possibly a result of her upbringing, with a weak mother and a dominant father, the children they raised were all compliant and obedient, except for Jhiang Youyou, who had a touch of rebelliousness in her bones. Because she felt pity for her sister, Jhiang Zhenzhen for once defied their father and didn’t open the car door.

She asked her sister, “What happened?”

Jhiang Youyou didn’t speak.

Jhiang Zhenzhen saw a white plastic bag under the car seat, picked it up, “What’s this?”

She opened the bag and saw it was a household registration booklet.

In her haste to get into the car, the booklet had fallen out of Jhiang Youyou’s pocket.

“What are you doing with the household registration booklet?”

Jhiang Youyou took the booklet back, pocketing it again.

She had intended to get married.

Now that it couldn’t happen, she thought she would wait until Jhiang Zhenghao went bankrupt before attending to it.
