Capítulo 250: Chapter Two-Hundred and Fifty: Cut the Ground From Under Their Feet

Chen Yao calmly said to Gu Fei, "Why don't you go find the girl that you got pregnant instead of clinging onto Shi Xiu? Shi Xiu is impetuous and hot-tempered; aren't you afraid she'll make the Gu family suffer in a fit of anger if you keep harassing her like this?"

She went on to say, "You're to blame if the Gu family's reputation is tarnished or their interests get affected. This whole mess started because of you. You're the future head of the Gu family, and this is how you act?! You're a disappointment; there's no hope for the Gu family with you at its helm."

Gu Fei sweated profusely. Gu Wan hurriedly stated, "Great Aunt Chen Yao, our Gu Fei and Shi Xiu have been betrothed to each other since they were young—"

"Let the matter of their betrothal go," Chen Yao detachedly interrupted her. "That was just a joke made by the elders. Shi Xiu isn't suitable for Gu Fei. I've decided to annul the betrothal right here and now; this issue is over and done with."
