Lin Miao purposely mentioned Gong Zhan, intending to make Gu Zi feel uncomfortable.
Gu Zi, however, looked at the red invitation card with a serene smile in her eyes, feeling no sadness at all. She didn’t immediately reach out to take the invitation either.
“I’m already married, ” she said calmly. “Whether it’s you or Gong Zhan, it makes no difference toif either of you wantsto attend. It would be better if you refrained from making such unnecessary remarks in the future.”
Lin Miao’s face turned red from the rebuke, and she awkwardly took back the invitation, handing it to Zhang Mei who was standing next to her.

Zhang Mei felt a pang of sympathy for her, but considering the necessity of inviting Su Shen and his family for dinner, she suppressed the urge to scold Gu Zi. She took the invitation and said to Gu Zi, “Miao Miao sincerely invites you to the wedding banquet. Please accept the invitation first.”
Gu Zi took the invitation, saying, “Your words make more sense now. If there’s nothing else, my mother and I will continue shopping.”
Just as Gu Zi was about to leave with her mother, she was stopped by Zhang Mei.
Zhang Mei, who had raised Gu Zi, felt it was her duty to advise her. Regarding the matter of Lin Jie’s imprisonment, she felt it necessary to persuade Gu Zi once more.
“Little Zi, we misunderstood you about Lin Jie’s matter. But after all, that is your uncle’s family. You shouldn’t be so impulsive. Letting Lin Jie go to jail and breaking ties with your uncle’s family isn’t good for anyone,” she said.
Lin Miao hadn’t expected Zhang Mei to bring up this topic again. Seeing Gu Zits expression change, she sensed that this could annoy Gu Zi and chimed in, “Yes, sister. My mother is actually doing this for your own good. You might not understand Lin Jie. He’s very vengeful. Offending him isn’t a sensible move. It will cause trouble in the future. Mother, you should know this, right?”
Lin Miao’s last “Mother” was directed at Mother Lin. Mother Lin didn’t want to engage in further conversation with Lin Miao, but she also didn’t want to leave Gu Zi alone to face them. So, she spoke up coldly, “I believe my husband shouldn’t have suffered a fracture in vain. Little Zits approach makes our family feel less aggrieved.”
Mother Lin was well aware of Lin Jie’s character. But Gu Zi was right. Such a person should not be tolerated. Tolerance would only embolden him to harm others, causing even greater damage.
Furthermore, Mother Lin had felt aggrieved all her life. Now, Gu Zi had helped her to stand tall.
When one stands tall, their breathing becomes smoother, better than any tonic. She didn’t want to experience the suffocating feeling she had in the past.
Hearing Mother Lin support Gu Zi so strongly, Lin Miao gritted her teeth in anger. Mother Lin used to dote on her so much, but now she was giving her the
cold shoulder because of Gu Zi. Gu Zi was her nemesis. She had to get rid of her. Gu Zi was here to steal her luck!
Gu Zi felt reassured after hearing Mother Lin’s words. Her mother’s understanding made her feel that her insistence on holding Lin Jie accountable was not in vain.

Even if the event was not a good one, a positive meaning could still be found.
Gu Zi felt that through this incident, the Lin family should grow emotionally, understanding that constant concession would only make others think they are easy to bully. They should stand tall and take the initiative when conditions are right.
Gu Zi agreed with Lin Miao, “You’re right. That’s why I’m even more determined to pursue this to the end. I can’t let Lin Jie off easily. If he wants to retaliate, he’ll have to do it from the police station as he waits for the police to decide his punishment. If I deal with him now, I won’t feel aggrieved when he retaliates later. Why should I worry about that?”
Zhang Mei wanted to scold Gu Zi again, but her husband pulled her back, so she remained silent.
Gu Shan also thought Gu Zi was incredibly stubborn. But that wasn’t the most important thing. Right now, the most important thing was that he wanted to get to know the important figures who appeared at Gu Zi’s wedding.
He had investigated Su Shen’s background. He was a former soldier who had already retired. There was nothing special about him. He had just made a fortune from running a pig farm in the village. He couldn’t help much in Gu Shan’s work.
But the likes of Deputy Chief He were different. If he could establish connections with them, his future career prospects would definitely be bright..
