Gu Xiang said, “Since he is so good, why is he looking for a wife through matchmaking?”

After hearing Gu Xiang’s words, Old Du explained, “He is too busy with his work so there are no other options! Our Mr. Jiang is Elder Jiang’s favorite grandson and he has been outstanding since he was a kid. He is stellar at everything he does. If Ms. Gu marries him, you will not regret it. Furthermore, if you guys get together, the Meng family’s problems will be solved right away. If Ms. Gu has some time, we can register the marriage tomorrow. What do you think?”

“…” Register the marriage?

Gu Xiang did not expect them to be so pushy! They seemed to be afraid that she would go back on her word and could not wait for her to get married to Mr. Jiang.

It seemed like Meng Yan’s words that Mr. Jiang would bring misfortune to his wife were true. If not, given the Jiang family’s status, they would be able to find all kinds of women. Why would they want her? Not to mention the fact that the Jiang family was much better off than the Meng family. She was not even the biological daughter of the family anyway. Again, why did they want her?

Gu Xiang instantly regretted coming and thought she would die if she got married.

She said tactfully, “Mr. Jiang sounds very impressive but I heard that he brings misfortune to his wives. Mishaps happened to all of his fiancées. Furthermore, since he isn’t here personally today, I think he isn’t very interested in the marriage. Just forget it! A forced marriage doesn’t bode well for anyone.”

Old Du became anxious when he heard her. “Ms. Gu.”

He initially thought that Gu Xiang would not reject given the Meng family’s current situation. After all, it was many girls’ dream to marry into the Jiang family. Yet, it turned out that Gu Xiang was unwilling.

Standing up, Gu Xiang said, “My apologies, I’ll take my leave first.”

Seeing that she was about to leave, Old Du quickly stopped her. “Ms. Gu, we can still negotiate regarding this matter. Don’t be too anxious to leave before I finish presenting the proposition.”

When Gu Xiang saw that he was sincere, she sat down again.

Looking at Old Du, she found it slightly surprising. “Given the Jiang family’s means, you should be able to find someone who is much more willing than me, right?”

There should be others who were willing to marry their daughters off for money even if that meant that their daughters died. There should be no need for him to be so concerned?

Old Du sighed and explained helplessly, “Given the Jiang family’s status, there are numerous people who want to marry their daughters off to us. Even if it is risky, there are a lot of people who wish to strike up a relationship with the Jiang family. However… after all the matters previously, even if they are willing, we’re afraid of it ourselves. Mr. Jiang is very against matchmaking right now and would be upset if he heard I was here. But… Ms. Gu is different.”

“Different?”

Old Du looked at her as he elaborated, “The fortune teller said that your eight characters match well with Mr. Jiang’s. I’m sure you know that elders are more superstitious so when his grandfather learned about it, he wanted you to marry his grandson.”

They initially did not believe in such things. In the past, they only felt that mishaps befell Mr. Jiang’s fiancées because he was unfortunate. However, after so many mishaps, they were all afraid and it was difficult not to believe in the curse.

He looked at Gu Xiang. “As long as the marriage is registered, we will solve the Meng family’s problems at once. Ms. Gu, please rest assured that you will not stand to lose from this matter. As for your relationship, you can slowly nurture it after getting married. If it really doesn’t work out, you can divorce in three years. What do you think? Is the Meng family’s future worth three years of your life?”
