Gu Changshun had long ceased to desire Wan Ruyan, but now, Wan Ruyan had burned down their Gu Family house and stolen their belongings.
To simply divorce Wan Ruyan in this manner, wouldn't that be letting her off too lightly?
"Mother, listen to me, we cannot divorce that wretched Wan Ruyan just yet!" As he spoke of Wan Ruyan, Gu Changshun also clenched his teeth in anger.
If he had known earlier, he would have never messed with that mad and cheap woman Wan Ruyan. He gained nothing from the entanglement with her, only a stench of scandal.
Mrs. Zhang, already driven to irrational fury by Wan Ruyan, exploded with rage when Gu Changshun said they couldn't divorce Wan Ruyan yet.
"What? Are you still enchanted by that woman? Even now, you don't want to divorce that wretched girl?" Mrs. Zhang had never agreed to let her son marry Wan Ruyan in the first place; it was only because Gu Changshun whispered in her ear that she had reluctantly let Wan Ruyan enter the Gu Family's doors.
