Reborn as a Fake Heiress Marrying the Tycoon novel Chapter 805

Chapter 805: Can’t Let Her Take the College Entrance Examination

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“There’s something else,” Gong Xin continued. “Don’t pretend to be blind to the fact that the Lin family was indeed poor. Yet, Lin Miao managed to complete high school while living with them. The Lin family scrimped and saved to provide her with an education, but it seems they couldn’t erase the rusticity ingrained in her. Is it her rural upbringing that’s the problem, or is it a flaw in her character?”

Upon hearing her daughter’s words, Mrs. Chen’s anger flared. The Gu family, after all, belonged to the military compound, and they had only managed to send Gu Zi to high school. If it weren’t for Gu Zi’s exceptional abilities, she wouldn’t have been able to attend the city’s top schools, given Gu Shan’s military rank and position. Therefore, in terms of family support, the treatment Lin Miao and Gu Zi received in education was equivalent.

This time, Mrs. Chen didn’t stop her daughter from speaking. She agreed with her sentiments, believing that Lin Miao was indeed of poor character. She blamed herself for being blind in the past, failing to see through Lin Miao’s pretense of innocence.

However, when Gong Xin’s words reached the ears of the Gu couple, they seemed particularly unreasonable. It was the Gong family who had been eager for their son to get married, which led them to persuade Gu Zi to forgo the college entrance exam and marry instead. They had to choose between Gu Zi’s future and the Gu family’s future, and anyone would choose the latter. Now that Gu Zi didn’t take the college entrance exam, how did it become their fault?

Zhang Mei was at a loss for words. She nudged Gu Shan from behind. Their relationship had been strained for a long time, and they hadn’t cooperated on anything for a while. If it weren’t for the need to maintain their marriage alliance with the Gong family and secure the Gu family’s backing, they wouldn’t have visited the Gong family together.

Gu Shan was annoyed, but in the face of the Gong family, he had to suppress his anger. He put on a brave face and said, “Commander Gong, regardless of everything, Lin Miao has changed now. Please give her a chance for the sake of my many years of service. She will fulfill her duties as a daughter-in-law and won’t make the same mistakes again. I assure you.”

Commander Gong remained silent, while Gong Xin scoffed and spoke for her father. “If assurances were enough, there would be no need for the police. Everyone in our family is clear-headed. Even if my brother can’t marry an outstanding woman like Gu Zi, we won’t accept Lin Miao. Whatever you say to my father won’t make a difference. If there’s nothing else, you can leave now.”
