Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

Chapter 184 Don't daydream if nothing's wrong

"you again!"

Seeing Gu Chen walk nervously to Wu Zhao's side, Ye Mingzhu's face immediately darkened.

Then she saw Ye Linyan walking in behind Wu Zhao. "Uncle, why are you taking so long to come in!"

Ye Linyan's gaze remained fixed on Wu Zhao, and he replied nonchalantly, "Oh, I didn't want to come in, so I stayed outside for a while."

"What, do I need your permission to do whatever I want?"

Even though Ye Mingzhu was favored in the Ye family, she was still extremely afraid of this young uncle.

Seeing his expressionless face, I couldn't help but shrink back a little: "No... I just..."

"Zhaozhao, what brings you here?" Gu Chen asked in a low voice, completely ignoring Ye Mingzhu. "Is there something wrong at home?"

Wu Zhao glanced at him and then at Ye Mingzhu, who was glaring at him, and a faint smile appeared on his lips: "I heard some interesting things, so I came."

"What, you're not welcome?"

Upon seeing Wu Zhao, Gu Yang instantly recalled the embarrassing scene of being surrounded by bodyguards while naked.

"You're not welcome here, get out!"

"Hurry up and send someone to throw this outsider out!"

No one paid any attention to his shouting, which made his expression grow increasingly grim.

He glared at Gu Chen with hatred, his eyes almost overflowing with resentment.

When Madam Yue was stared at by Wu Zhao's gaze, she felt a chill run down her spine.

The fear of being seen through made her oblivious to Gu Yang's gaze.

The clan elders stared in astonishment as Gu Chen approached a strange woman. The third uncle couldn't help but ask, "Patriarch, who is this...?"

“Wu Zhao, my name is Wu Zhao.”

Fearing that Gu Chen might say something surprising, Wu Zhao quickly replied.

Wu Zhao...? His surname is Wu?

Could it be a member of the Wu family...?

Seeing through Wu Zhao's thoughts, a smile flashed in Gu Chen's eyes.

“She is my honored guest; she is the one who healed my legs,” Gu Chen introduced to the clan elders. “She is very important to me, and I originally wanted to find a formal time to introduce her to my family.”

Everyone here is shrewd, so they naturally know what Gu Chen meant.

Find a formal time to introduce her to your family; wouldn't that be the person you've been looking for?

Several elders couldn't help but scrutinize Wu Zhao closely. Because their gazes weren't malicious, Wu Zhao didn't say anything, even though he felt a little uncomfortable.

"He's a good kid..."

"So beautiful! The baby she gives birth to will probably be beautiful too."

"Oh my, you know what, you really have to say..."

Although the whispered conversation wasn't loud, the living room wasn't soundproof.

Therefore, the elders' voices reached Wu Zhao's ears very clearly.

...She knew it!

Glancing at Gu Chen with annoyance, Wu Zhao said, "Huo Jinchen is in a real mess right now, he's even calling me."

After the news went viral on Weibo, the Huo family quickly realized that someone had deliberately leaked Huo Jinchen and Ye Linlang's affair.

Ye Mingzhu did not try to hide what she was doing, so Huo Tingchen found out about it very quickly.

He was unsure how to deal with Ye Mingzhu, and thought it was Huo Jinchen's affair.

Completely bewildered, Huo Jinchen didn't know what to do, so he called Gu Chen.

Who knew that Gu Chen would silence his phone after entering the Gu family's manor, just as Wu Zhao had Lan Yao bring him over.

I received a call from Huo Jinchen at the door.

Fearing that he had put Ye Linlang in the spotlight, Huo Jinchen was at a loss.

Fortunately, Wu Zhao knew what was going on and told him to stay with his wife and not overthink things.

"What's wrong with Jin Chen again?" Gu Chen, unaware of the trending topics, glanced at Qing Yao.

Before Qingyao could investigate, Wu Zhao told him about what happened on Xingbo.

Gu Chen quickly realized what had happened and felt a sense of absurdity.

He glanced at Ye Linyan with a strange look in his eyes: "Is your Ye family... doomed?"

Ye Linyan's lips twitched, and he said, unusually speechless, "Are you sick?"

Wu Zhao: ?

She gave Gu Chen a strange look, then looked at Ye Linyan.

When did the relationship between these two become... a little better?

It was as if she could sense what Wu Zhao wanted to say through her gaze.

Gu Chen and Ye Linyan said in unison, "Who is on good terms with him?"

The two: ...

—You're annoying.

--The same to you.

Caught between Gu Chen and Ye Linyan, Wu Zhao couldn't help but take two steps to the side.

"Why don't you two... talk it over first?" Wu Zhao asked tentatively.

Something feels really weird...

"I'm not in charge of the Ye family, so what does it have to do with me?" Ye Linyan refused to take the blame. He shrugged and said, "I was just asked by my older brother to keep an eye on his daughter. As for what she does or what she wants to do, I don't care."

He spoke very bluntly, which Ye Mingzhu found somewhat unacceptable.

"Uncle! Didn't you come with me to propose marriage? You promised Dad you'd help me, how could you—"

To everyone's surprise, Ye Linyan laughed and said, "I did agree to him, but I didn't agree to you."

"If you really wanted to marry Gu Chen, you wouldn't have waited until he stood up. Ye Mingzhu, do you think everyone else is a fool?"

He pointed at Gu Chen and said softly, "Look at him, does Gu Chen look like an idiot?"

Gu Chen: ...

Even knowing he said it on purpose, Gu Chen's face still darkened.

"Mr. Ye, you're probably not here to watch the show, are you?" Wu Zhao saw through Ye Linyan's plan. "Anyway, you won't lose out, right?"

Even if Ye Mingzhu couldn't achieve her wish, he still found it quite amusing to annoy Gu Chen at the Gu family's family meeting.

But I wonder what Ye Mingzhu would think if she knew that she was just a tool for amusement in her uncle's eyes...

Ye Linyan's gaze softened as he looked at Wu Zhao: "You know me very well, Zhao Zhao."

He actually dared to call himself Zhaozhao!

Gu Chen's temple twitched slightly.

Ye Mingzhu could see from Ye Linyan's gaze that he had different feelings for Wu Zhao, and she naturally understood that Gu Chen also had special feelings for Wu Zhao.

His face flushed red with jealousy.

"You shameless woman, how dare you seduce Brother Gu Chen—"

She rushed forward to slap Wu Zhao.

Unexpectedly, the other person slightly turned their body and slapped her across the face.

A crisp "snap!" sounded.

Ye Mingzhu's face was visibly swollen, and she staggered a couple of steps before falling to the ground.

That was a really hard slap.

Wu Zhao waved his hand dismissively and said indifferently, "Miss Ye, it seems you haven't learned your lesson yet."

"I noticed it when we were at the mall; you seem to really enjoy slapping people. Since you like it so much, I suppose you'll also like this slap I gave you, right?"

She smiled and said, "If you want more, I don't mind giving you a few more."

"Also, I've checked for you. You and Gu Chen don't have a marriage line. I'm really sorry, but it seems you're not destined to be together."

The surging purple aura emanating from Gu Chen entwined around her fingers, caressing and wandering over her fingertips as if in a flirtatious manner.

Wu Zhao subtly pinched the purple aura and continued, "But I can tell you that Gu Chen will have two children in the future. Well... they won't be with you."

This is the essence of killing someone by destroying their spirit.
