Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mrs. Lin’s hands trembled, her pupils dilating with astonishment. Father Lin held Mrs. Lin’s hand, lips quivering as he was at a loss for words.

Could this fair and beautiful girl standing before them be their biological daughter, Gu Zi?

Though they had ventured into the city on multiple occasions, their biological daughter had consistently refused to meet them, yet they had never questioned her decision.

After all, who accustomed to a comfortable city life would willingly endure the hardships of the countryside? This they understood. manhua

They never anticipated her appearing before them now.

Overwhelmed by emotion, they were eager to embrace their child but felt unworthy.

Gazing at their daughter, she appeared to belong to an entirely different world from them.

Paralyzed in place, they allowed their tears to flow, but they dared not take action. The mere sight of their daughter was profoundly fulfilling.

“Gu Zi, go ahead,” Su Shen urged softly, giving her a gentle nudge as if to embolden her.

Gu Zi nodded and stepped forward. She took the initiative to speak. “Dad, Mom, I’m Gu Zi. I came back especially to see you. Please forgive me for being unresponsive in the past. I’m sorry!”

Gu Zi believed that, regardless of the circumstances, her parents hadn’t abandoned their child willingly, so she should express her understanding.

Advancing further, she reached out to hug Mrs. Lin and held Mr. Lin’s hand.

It seemed that they wanted to embrace her at that moment, but were hesitant, so she took the initiative.

Mrs. Lin stood there, her heart struck with a profound sense of disbelief, before tears of joy began to fall.

She reached out and tried to hold her daughter’s hand, which was fair and delicate.

Tentatively, she extended her hand to grasp her daughter’s hand, which was fair and delicate.

In that moment, as they met each other’s gaze, Mrs. Lin apologized, “No need to apologize, my good daughter. It’s more than enough to have you back safely.”

Gu Zi reached out to wipe her mother’s tears away and responded gently, “Then, Mom, don’t cry. I’m fine.”

Su Shen approached and seconded Gu Zi’s sentiments, “Indeed, Uncle Lin and

Aunt Lin. We came here today to share some good news.”

What could be this good news? Gu Zi was puzzled. She gazed at Su Shen.

Mrs. and Mr. Lin gradually ceased their tears and inquired, “What is it?”

Su Shen and Gu Zi stood together. He stated with a solemn expression, ‘We have come here specifically to visit you, and we also seek your approval for my marriage to Gu Zi.”

After Su Shen’s declaration, he turned to look at Gu Zi, causing her cheeks to flush with surprise.

She hadn’t expected him to broach the topic so directly. Hadn’t he mentioned that he’d wait a week before making a decision?

Mr. and Mrs. Lin found themselves equally taken aback. They wondered how Gu Zi and Su Shen had ended up together.

Mrs. Lin, too, was flustered, afraid that her daughter was being coerced into the situation.

Gu Zi squinted her eyes slightly, sensing that something was amiss.

The reaction of the elderly couple seemed to suggest a strong reluctance to marry off their daughter in her place. Wasn’t this the very outcome they had requested?

If this matter had not been initiated by the elderly couple, it meant that the Lin family shouldn’t have any knowledge of it.

However, considering Lin Miao’s claim, the root of the issue was most likely Lin Miao herself. Gu Zi pondered the motive behind Lin Miao’s actions.

Was she afraid that Gu Zi would vie for the position of the Gu family’s daughter or possibly seek to court Gong Zhan?

This scenario was entirely plausible, given that both the Gu family elders and Lin Miao placed great importance on this engagement.

Gu Zi clarified, “I sought out Su Shen myself. I believe he’s a very good man.”

A subtle smile danced in Su Shen’s eyes as he hurriedly added to Gu Zi’s words, “Yes, Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin, I’m fully committed to ensuring Gu Zi has a wonderful life. ”

Although Su Shen and Gu Zi appeared to be genuinely enthusiastic about this marriage, the elderly couple failed to crack a smile upon hearing their words. In fact, they seemed concerned.

Inquiring further, they asked Gu Zi, “Is this truly what you desire? Or were you coerced by the Gu family to leave the city and sent to the countryside?”

After giving the matter considerable thought, the elderly couple felt it would be more beneficial for their daughter to remain in the city.

Thus, they did not press the issue any further. As long as she lived a good life, everything else was secondary.

If indeed the betrothal money had gone missing, they would find a means to repay Su Shen.

Ultimately, this marriage was initially proposed by Lin Miao, and since Lin Miao refused to marry, the betrothal money had to be returned.

Lin Miao was the one who had feelings for Su Shen. Lin Miao had married Su Shen willingly, even though he had three children.

However, it would be wrong to let the innocent Gu Zi marry Su Shen. Could she really accept Su Shen, who had three children and was married twice?
