Xu Nuan's expressions turned dark seeing the people who were standing outside. She was already feeling tired and exhausted from cleaning her messy cupboard for 10 minutes and yet she has to deal with the people whom she hates the most.

She looked at Gu Xingren who was standing behind her loving mother Lin Ran and Grandmother Gu who has pampered the fake princess more than her own granddaughter.

" Oh My, How come you got the time to spare to visit this peasant's humble place?" Xu Nuan asked dramatically while looking at the trio with surprise.

It was their first time to visit her at her place after she was discharged from the hospital. They didn't even come to look after her even though she went through the operation and needed someone's care after being discharged from the hospital.

Lin Ran frowned upon hearing her tone and said coldly, " Xu Nuan, mind your tongue. You dare to be sarcastic in front of your mother and grandmother? Don't you know how to respect your elders? Your grandma especially came to visit you and here you're acting spoiled as always."

Grandmother Gu didn't say anything and was standing there indifferently while Lin Ran acted as her mother and reprimanded her.

Xu Nuan couldn't help but be amused at Lin Ran's two-sided face. She claims that she doesn't accept her as her daughter since she didn't contribute anything to the family while she loves to use her title as her mother, just to scold and reprimand her.

But too bad that she is not Xu Nuan but Jiang Yue. She has tolerated her attitude but she is not obliged to do so.

" Mrs. Gu, please lower down your voice otherwise you will disturb the neighbor next door. The security here is very tight and if that neighbor complained to the security, you will be banned from entering into the building from next time," she said while looking at Han Zihao's unit. Although it was Sunday, she was not sure if he was at home or not. She hasn't seen him since the morning and was wondering what he is doing right now. There are times where he had gone out for a field check or unofficial meetings even on weekends so she was not sure if he was still at his place or not.

But she was not interested in introducing him to these hypocrite people.

Lin Ran frowned upon hearing Xu Nuan's words but Grandmother Gu held her arm and said in a low voice, " Don't waste your breath here. Let's go in and talk calmly. You're her mother, after all, you should have a bigger heart and forgive her." she said in a low voice which made Xu Nuan's brows rise in surprise.

She was the same grandmother who didn't let go of any chance to make sarcastic remarks at the banquet for her and now she was acting as if she is the virtuous lady here while she is a rude brat.

-

In the living room, Gu Xingren was sitting in the middle of Lin Ran and Grandmother Gu on the large couch while Xu Nuan was sitting adjacent to them on the single one and waiting for them to state why they came here.

Grandmother Gu looked around and frowned seeing how unorganized the place was and despite being spacious and beautifully designed, it was maintained very poorly.

" Xu Nuan, you're a girl. You should keep your house clean and well maintained. After marriage you're not planning to make us lose face in front of your in-laws, are you?" Grandmother Gu said calmly while her hands were placed on her lap properly.

Xu Nuan raised her brows and wondered what they were planning and what was the reason that Grandmother Gu was speaking in such a calm tone today. If it was her old self, she would have used her high pitched voice to make her ears bleed with her nagging.

She nodded and decided to play along with her and smiled before saying, " Grandmother don't need to worry. This will never happen. Because I will find a fine husband for myself who could keep the house clean and cook delicious food for me. Problem solved!"

"..."

Grandmother Gu gritted her teeth and forced a smile while clutching her palms tightly into a fist. 'This brat…'

She was not expecting her to talk back to her this way and say such words so shamelessly.

" Hah, keep dreaming. Do you think that you will get a fine guy like this? Such men are the rarest gem. And to get such a guy, you need to be capable of yourself. And you're just a high school graduate who is ruining the name of our family. See your sister. She not only attends the prominent university in the city but also helps your father at the company as well." Lin Ran scoffed at her wishful thinking.

" She also has a nice guy like Yuhan by her side as well. Can't you learn to be like your sister?"

Gu Xingren placed a hand over Lin Ran's and said softly, " Mother, please don't say that. It's not Sister's fault for getting low marks and she didn't manage to get into a good university. Sister is working hard and even joined some 'small' entertainment company." she said while trying to take Xu Nuan's side.

" Hmph. What work? No one from our family has worked in the entertainment industry. It's messy and dirty. This girl has brought the name of our family down by getting involved in the messy scandal." Lin Ran said irritatingly.

Xu Nuan didn't say anything and just watched their unfolding drama. They wouldn't have come to her place for no reason. She was just waiting for them to talk about their real intention of their visit.

" Lin Ran. Stop it. We're not here to talk about that scandal. It has been cleared that Xu Nuan has no relationship with that boy, right Xu Nuan?" Grandmother Gu asked while looking at Xu Nuan gently and placed a hand over hers which made Xu Nuan purse her lips as she tried to not pull her hand rudely.

" Xu Nuan, we are your family, so we believe you. But we can't stop people from running their mouths. We have talked about it with your father as well. You're not planning to continue your studies like Xingren and this work has given you nothing but humiliation."

" Rather than wasting your time and letting down your parents even further, we want you to get married and settle down. Since I know that you don't have any boyfriend, I have a capable man in my eyes who will be suitable as your groom." Grandmother Gu looked at Xu Nuan with a calm smile and announced the real reason for their visit.

" Get married?" Xu Nuan asked in surprise. She was expecting many things that could be the reason for their visit but their real reason outdid her creative ideas which shocked her that they dared to come to her place and shamelessly announce her to get married and settle down.
