Chapter 514: Chapter 516: For Your Own Good

Zou Yaru was about to enter the house, her hand on the doorknob, when suddenly she heard Luo Yufeng’s words and stopped.

"Alas, I have always been uneasy. You see, if she finds out about the lie we told her, she will blame us, won’t she?" Although Luo Yufeng was always assertive and straightforward, never deceiving anyone.

Yet watching Zou Yaru reluctantly parting with the man who delivered goods by car, Luo Yufeng finally agreed to Father Zou’s suggestion.

Lie to her?

Zou Yaru felt a hint of confusion. What had her parents lied to her about?

"What’s there to blame? Blame us for making her marry into the Gu Family, to live a life of luxury?" Father Zou felt that Luo Yufeng was being overly compassionate and said, "You don’t know how tough business is. Now that we’re connected with the Gu family, our business has improved significantly. Relying on the coal mines of Ping City, it’s enough to elevate the Zou Family from modest wealth to true affluence."

"In the future, what won’t you have? And our son, he’ll be a truly wealthy man too." Father Zou believed that Zou Yaru’s marriage into the Gu Family was hugely beneficial.

What does that mean?

Zou Yaru’s hand on the doorknob, a chill rose within her, as if she had heard a massive secret.

"I hope I am just overthinking it." Luo Yufeng truly loved her daughter, but to let her cherished daughter marry a man who delivered goods by car?

Luo Yufeng thought it would be better to marry Gu Junhe instead. Now, Yaru might resent her for a while, but later, she would be grateful.

"Dad, Mom, what did you just mean by that?" Unable to hear more, Zou Yaru recklessly charged in and anxiously demanded, "What exactly have you been hiding from me?"

She had some guesses at the bottom of her heart, yet she felt she dared not believe them.

"Yaru?" The couple, Father Zou, and Luo Yufeng in the study simply couldn’t believe their eyes. She was supposed to be at the Gu Family; how had she come back now?

"Yaru, listen to me," Luo Yufeng pulled at Zou Yaru, instinctively trying to soothe her, but momentarily, as the lie was exposed, she didn’t know what to say. The excuses she had prepared earlier completely slipped her mind at that moment.

"What is this attitude?" Father Zou, with a stern face, looked displeased as he said, "Is this how you question us?"

"Dad, Mom, you are the closest people to me, you..." Zou Yaru, feeling panicked, didn’t know if she should continue asking.

"Good to know." Father Zou moved to sit behind the desk on a chair, his face serious as he said, "We are doing this for your good. By marrying Junhe, you are living glamorously. The better days are still ahead."

"No." Zou Yaru thought of Gu Junhe’s sycophancy and attempts to please today, how he had not considered her at all, and she felt a surge of coldness. She insisted, "Dad, Mom, I want to know the truth."

"Yaru, there’s no truth or untruth. We are all doing this for your good," Luo Yufeng soothed.

Zou Yaru stepped aside, unwilling to accept Luo Yufeng’s comfort.

"Dad is very happy that you were willing to marry into the Gu Family for him," Father Zou, recalling Zou Yaru’s anxiousness back then, softened his tone and said, "At the time, indeed something happened, but it wasn’t as serious as said. Now, as you and Junhe are happily married, with us here, Gu Junhe will not bully you. Your days ahead will be better than others’."
