Chapter 18: Chapter 18 You May Imagine Beautifully

Yin Xiuxiu’s complexion faded instantly, “Both children have never met each other; it’s too early to discuss these matters.”

The Su Family in the Capital City was considered a prestigious clan.

Although the Chi Family held a respectable title in Nancheng, they were nothing in comparison to those in the Capital City.

The marriage alliance between the Su Family and the Chi Family was essentially Chi Family marrying up.

If Chi Yan were as obedient, sensible, and academically accomplished as to potentially become at least a chief physician, she might have reluctantly accepted it.

But for Chi Gui, who grew up in the rural areas without any manners or education, even if there were the old master’s orders, she would never agree!

...

“Mrs. Su, hello,” Chi Gui greeted politely.

“Mm. I’ve been old friends with your mother, and I will speak frankly,” Yin Xiuxiu began softly, “The arrangement between my father-in-law and your grandmother was an idea from the older generation… You are young and should understand that marriage is now decided by the children themselves, and I can’t make decisions for my son.”

She smiled and said, “However, I took a liking to you at first glance. If you are willing, I could consider you as my goddaughter.”

Chi Gui didn’t expect that before she could even broach the topic of breaking off the engagement, Mrs. Su had already brought it up.

This made things easier.

Chi Gui smiled back, “You don’t need to take me as your goddaughter.”

Upon hearing this, Yin Xiuxiu’s expression darkened.

She didn’t expect Chi Gui to willingly break off the engagement.

Climbing up to the Su Family would be like reaching the heavens in one step for a girl like Chi Gui.

Anyone with a bit of sense could tell which would be more beneficial, a goddaughter or a daughter-in-law.

Before Chi Gui could speak again, Yin Xiuxiu cut in, “Chi Gui, you’ve never experienced life in a wealthy family; it might seem wonderful in your imagination. But actually, being a wealthy wife is not so easy, and with your background, you would only be ridiculed daily even if you forcefully married into our family. Isn’t it better to take a step back and choose something more advantageous for yourself?”

Chi Gui: …

Zhao Yuexiu saw that Chi Gui didn’t speak and urgently said, “Chi Gui, look how considerate your Aunt Su is, hurry up and thank her!”

Chi Gui frowned slightly, “What I meant to say…”

Before she could finish, a figure suddenly ran in crying and threw herself at Mrs. Su’s feet.

“Aunt Su, please save my mother! She, she passed out!”

This sudden occurrence startled everyone.

The living room fell eerily silent for a second.

Yin Xiuxiu looked down at the girl at her feet with a gently furrowed brow showing clear impatience, “Your mother fainted, and you should call 120, what’s the use of finding me? I am not a doctor.”

The girl, tears swelling in her eyes, expressed despair, “My mother isn’t breathing anymore! We can’t wait for an ambulance! Please, I beg you, let your family doctor take a look at her, at least perform some first aid…”

Before she could finish, Yin Xiuxiu coldly interrupted, “The family doctor went out with the old master, and it will take a while for him to return.”

“That, that…” The girl’s desperate gaze frantically searched the other people in the living room.

Upon spotting Chi Yan sitting next to Yin Xiuxiu, her eyes suddenly brightened, “Chi Yan, you are the best student in our department, and you’ve even gone out on field work with the professor! Please help me take a look at my mother!”

Chi Yan looked at Yin Xiuxiu with difficulty and apologized, “I’m sorry… I really don’t know much…”

It was abundantly clear that Yin Xiuxiu disliked this girl; anyone with common sense wouldn’t risk offending the Su Family matriarch to help her.

The girl, feeling weak, knelt helplessly on the floor, gazing at the people around her, “My mother… my mother really isn’t going to make it… please, anyone, can you help me…”

Yin Xiuxiu frowned in disgust, “Where is the butler? Didn’t he see I am hosting guests? Take her away immediately.”

The butler and the servants hurried forward, attempting to pull the girl away.

Her body trembled intensely, her face ashen.

Just as a servant’s hand was about to grab her, a slim, fair, and remarkably attractive hand steadied her shoulder.
