Although he had sensed that Zhang Ran's family was not ordinary, Gu Rui did not pay any mind to it; he was not the type of person to be calculating in that way.

"Alright, thank you for coming to attend our wedding." Gu Rui agreed immediately.

After chatting for a few moments, Zhang Ran did not delay him any further and told him to go and prepare quickly.

Zhang Ran had some understanding of Gu Rui; He Yong had already conducted an investigation before coming, and he was indeed a very decent person.

At this moment, Liu Ru was somewhat distracted, looking toward the entrance from time to time. Just as she was about to lose her patience and send a message to ask, she finally saw a familiar figure.

Gu Bo and his wife, Zhang Haifang, had eyes blazing with fire; they never imagined that their son could actually do such a thing.

When their son had called earlier to say he was seeing someone, the two of them had been quite happy.

To be honest, they had previously been worried about their son's sexual orientation.

From childhood to adulthood, there were countless girls who had actively pursued their son, of all different types, but they had never seen Gu Rui show interest in anyone.

How could this not make them worry?

Fortunately, their son had finally found a girlfriend, which made them breathe a huge sigh of relief.

But when they learned that their son's "girlfriend" was only a few years younger than them, the two were instantly unsettled.

This was like a bolt from the blue striking their hearts, something they could not accept.

After they expressed their clear opposition, their son actually conspired with his sister to deceive them. If it hadn't been for Liu Ru secretly informing them, they wouldn't have known that their son was getting married today.

They were very angry in their hearts; they wanted to know what kind of love potion that woman had fed their son.

"Gu Rui! Gu Xinyi, get out here right now!" Zhang Haifang shouted with towering rage, her natural advantage of a loud voice fully revealed at this moment.

Because of her loud voice, she had basically never lost when arguing with other old women.

Some people did not know them, but seeing their appearance, they knew they were here to pick a fight. Most people operated on the principle that more trouble is worse than less, so they did not speak up.

As for those who could help, they basically all knew that these two were Gu Rui's parents, so they could only watch helplessly or send word to warn them.

Gu Rui received the news quickly, or rather, he had vaguely heard his mother's shouting.

His expression changed, but he quickly calmed down, calling his sister as he walked outside.

"Xinyi, you and Qingyu stay inside, leave everything to me," Gu Rui said in a deep voice.

Gu Xinyi was a bit panicked, and upon hearing this, she said, "Okay, Brother, don't be anxious, just talk to Mom and Dad properly."

"Yes, tell Qingyu that no matter what happens today, I will marry her," Gu Rui said firmly.

"Alright," Gu Xinyi replied.

After hanging up, Gu Xinyi looked at Yu Qingyu with some worry, though Yu Qingyu's face did not show much tension.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, it will be fine," Gu Xinyi said softly.

Yu Qingyu smiled and said, "I'm not worried. No matter what, I am actually very happy, because today I know that I still have family, and there are still people who care about me."

The arrival of Zhang Ran's family had indeed made Yu Qingyu especially happy; she had originally thought that apart from her sister, no one else cared about her at all.

But now she knew that her brother-in-law's family also treated her as family, so Yu Qingyu was not particularly nervous.

Gu Xinyi breathed a slight sigh of relief, but then she heard Yu Qingyu say, "Let's go over together."

"What? No, Sister-in-law..." Gu Xinyi was very anxious; she knew her mother's mouth all too well.

In the past, her mother had offended no small number of people because of that mouth, and there had been no shortage of fights.

"It's okay, I can accept any outcome, and I cannot let Gu Rui face all of this alone," Yu Qingyu said as she walked outside.

"Sister-in-law, listen to me, let's see what Brother says first. If it really doesn't work, then we can go over, okay?" Gu Xinyi said, pulling on Yu Qingyu.

She really liked this sister-in-law, and in her view, the age difference was not a problem at all.

No matter what Gu Xinyi said, she kept pulling on Yu Qingyu to stop her from going over. Finally, Yu Qingyu said helplessly, "Then let's do this: we'll watch from the side for now, and if it really doesn't work, I'll go out then."

Seeing Yu Qingyu's firm attitude, Gu Xinyi knew she had made up her mind and could only follow with a bitter face, praying incessantly in her heart.

At this time, Zhang Ran's family also saw the arrival of Gu Bo and the others, but they had no intention of intervening yet.

If Gu Rui could resolve this on his own, that would be best; if it really didn't work, Zhang Ran would not let his sister-in-law suffer.

Seeing Gu Rui approach, Gu Bo's face turned livid and he couldn't speak, only pointing his finger at him, incomparably angry.

Upon seeing her son, Zhang Haifang was happy for a moment, then immediately began to curse, "You little brat, your wings have hardened now, and you dare to hide everything from us?

Do you still have us, your parents, in your eyes? Or is it that you don't even want your mom and dad anymore?"

Gu Rui was somewhat helpless and waited until Zhang Haifang finished before saying, "Mom, Dad, I know I was wrong."

Gu Rui knew that what he had done was wrong and was disrespectful to his parents, so he admitted his fault straightforwardly.

"You know you were wrong?" Zhang Haifang was stunned; when had her son ever been so easy to talk to?

Gu Bo was also stunned for a moment, then snorted coldly, "It's good that you know you were wrong. Come back with us now."

Gu Rui said with a calm expression, "Dad, I know I was wrong, but this time I must marry Qingyu and bring her home.

The wrong I am talking about is that I shouldn't have hidden it from you; I was wrong in this matter, but it is not a problem between Qingyu and me."

"What did you say?" Gu Bo was instantly furious.

"Gu Rui, what kind of love potion did that woman feed you? She is almost the same age as your mother! Have you studied until you've become a fool?" Zhang Haifang was incomparably angry.

Gu Rui said, "Mom, Qingyu and I are truly in love, and I will marry no one but her."

"Get out, get out, get out! Are you still putting on this tragic drama for me? I've seen every kind of scene in my life! Call that woman out here; I want to see what kind of love potion this woman has fed you two siblings!" Zhang Haifang became more and more furious as she spoke.

She then shouted with her loud voice, "Yu Qingyu, is it? Get out here quickly, don't hide away! Hurry up! You have the ability to seduce my son, but no ability to come out and see me?"
