The Leng Family.
First floor reception room.
Leng Xing'an, the current head of the Leng Family, sat restlessly on the side sofa.
It wasn't for any other reason, but the current atmosphere really made it impossible for him to remain calm.
After all...
He nervously swallowed and looked uneasily towards the rumored —
"Number one fanboy of the Shen Family's young miss," "Young master of the Gu Family in Jianghai City," "Willing to defy the Gu Family patriarch to marry Shen Wan'er" — Gu Yan.
The man was sitting on the sofa with a smile, his eyes constantly sweeping over the cold woman seated in the main position.
Tsk tsk, is this the ultimate villain of the future?
Gu Yan looked at Leng Qingqiu sitting opposite him. Before coming, he had also searched for some basic information about Leng Qingqiu online, such as her being the former number one talented woman in Jianghai City, her breathtaking beauty, and when he actually met her, he understood that those rumors were not exaggerated. Even though she was now blind, it couldn't hide her aura of being like a flower on a high cliff.
The only flaw was...
Next to Leng Qingqiu, there was a very eye-catching little brat. She had dyed yellow hair, wore earrings, and seemed to have a shiny little heart sticker on her left cheek.
Her fingernails were done in flashy nail art, she wore a black Lolita mini skirt, and had a jacket tied around her waist.
If only her manner of speaking wasn't that...
"Pah!! Mere small fry! Why are you looking at my sister with those lecherous eyes!"
Leng Ling'er, as Leng Qingqiu's number one fan, naturally couldn't stand seeing Gu Yan sitting opposite them with a smile on his face.
Especially since she was the big sister at school, everyone would give way to her!
She had never been afraid of anyone since she was little! So what if it was the Gu Family, even if he was the young master of the Gu Family, she didn't think he could be stronger than her sister!
Not to mention, he was just a male small fry!
Upon hearing this, Gu Yan raised an eyebrow. Hmm, very much in line with his stereotypical impression of a C-list brat.
Leng Xing'an was startled by Leng Ling'er's words. My little ancestor, if we offend the Gu Family at this time, many of our Leng Family's affairs will fall into a passive state and face obstacles!
Leng Qingqiu naturally knew that it wasn't time for them to be exposed in people's sights yet.
So she reached out and tapped Leng Ling'er on the forehead, saying, "Ling'er, don't be rude."
"Ouch! It hurts~!"
Leng Qingqiu naturally didn't use any force, but Leng Ling'er just liked to act pitiful in front of her sister.
Ignoring Leng Ling'er, Leng Qingqiu closed her eyes and turned towards Gu Yan: "I already know the purpose of the Gu Family's young master's visit to our Leng Family today."
As she spoke, Leng Qingqiu's mind also quickly pondered the purpose of Gu Yan's visit.
The Gu Family, one of the top families in Jianghai City, and their young master Gu Yan was the number one fanboy of the Shen Family's daughter.
This visit was about the arranged marriage, but it was certainly to cancel it.
Combining his previous behaviors, it was most likely to gain favor with Shen Wan'er, so he came to cancel this arranged marriage that might 'possibly' affect his image in front of Shen Wan'er.
Leng Qingqiu felt her guess was completely correct.
Unfortunately, what she miscalculated was...
"Oh? Since Qingqiu already knows the purpose of my visit, then things will be easier to handle."
Gu Yan's eyes showed some surprise, he didn't expect his old man's efficiency to be so high, that this matter was communicated so quickly?
But why didn't Leng Qingqiu show any intention of resistance? He had prepared many arguments for nothing.
?
Hearing Gu Yan call her name in such a tone, to be honest, it made her a bit uncomfortable.
But then she thought, since he was here to cancel the engagement anyway, it didn't matter.
"Who allowed you...!"
Leng Ling'er was instantly displeased when she heard Gu Yan directly call her sister "Qingqiu", just as she was about to speak, she was pressed down by Leng Qingqiu.
She said calmly, "Since it's easy to handle, let's do it quickly then, it's getting late."
Gu Yan nodded, it was indeed getting late, now every minute and second couldn't be wasted.
Just now he had successfully bonded with Leng Qingqiu, becoming "Pure Love Spouses", he needed to quickly engage in pure love activities to gain points!
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and said to a white-haired butler behind him, "Old Gao, bring that out."
"Yes!"
For this visit, Gu Yan only brought Old Gao alone. Firstly, bringing too many people might give Leng Qingqiu a bad impression of him, people might even think he came to break off the engagement.
Secondly, it was because this old butler behind him had unfathomable strength, enough to protect his personal safety.
On Leng Xing'an's side, seeing his eldest niece already had a calm expression as if everything was under control.
He also felt relieved, it seems that things were just as they thought before Gu Yan came, he really came to cancel the engagement.
Look, he's even taking out the marriage contract to destroy it.
Leng Qingqiu was calm and composed in her heart, long ago, she had vowed to live only for revenge.
Whether Gu Yan canceled the engagement or not would not cause the slightest impact on her state of mind.
Thinking this, Leng Qingqiu also silently said in her heart [Grandfather, since it's them canceling this engagement, your spirit in heaven won't blame your granddaughter].
Leng Ling'er also thought Gu Yan came to cancel the engagement, although this was the result she wanted.
But... but why did it feel so unsatisfying?
How could my dear sister not be good enough? You think you're too good for her?
Thinking this, her gaze towards Gu Yan became even more unfriendly.
This little brat...
Gu Yan's expression remained unchanged, pretending not to see Leng Ling'er's expression, after all, the purpose of his visit was for Leng Qingqiu.
Whether Leng Ling'er liked him or not, Gu Yan didn't care.
"Young Master."
Old Gao had now taken out two documents.
Gu Yan took one document and handed it to Leng Xing'an sitting on the side sofa, smiling lightly, "Family Head Leng, please take a look at this document."
"Oh... oh oh."
Leng Xing'an was stunned as he took the rather thick document, why is the cancellation agreement so thick?
Then, Gu Yan placed the specially made document in front of Leng Qingqiu, saying gently, "Qingqiu, I know you can't see, so I specially made a Braille version of the document for you."
Leng Qingqiu was stunned.
