Upon hearing this, Gu Chengyan stood up excitedly.

"Nonsense, nonsense! Mother, you know I don't like my cousin, how can you still think like this? Have you promised uncle?"

Mrs. Gu looked indifferent.

"Not yet, but mother also thinks this is feasible. Anyway, you don't have a girl you like, so it doesn't matter who you marry. It's just right to marry your cousin, because I know her well..."

Before Mrs. Gu finished her words, Gu Chengyan's face turned blue with anger.

"Mom, who said I don't have a girl I like? I already have someone in my heart. There is no way I will marry Song Linlin."

When Mrs. Gu heard what Gu Chengyan said, she smiled with a look of success.

"Cheng'er, you mean, you have someone you like? Which girl is it? Tell mother quickly so that mother can prepare and go to propose marriage."

Seeing the look on Mrs. Gu’s face that said, “I knew it a long time ago, I was just waiting to see your kindness,” Gu Chengyan spoke helplessly.

"Mom, please don't worry about this matter. I know what to do."

Mrs. Gu was unhappy to hear this.

I had managed to trick my son into saying these words, so how could I give up so easily?

"Son, you don't know how hard my life has been. Every time I go out, I'm laughed at by others, who say you like men. They also say that the Gu family's incense will be cut off with you. I've had several fights with them over this."

"If you really love mom, you should get married sooner so that mom can have a grandson sooner."

Gu Chengyan:…

"Oh, son, why are you still hesitating? When your father and I were your age, we already had you. What about you? You are still unmarried, which really holds us back..."

Gu Chengyan looked at his mother speechlessly.

"Son, you don't need to show up for this matter. I can take care of it for you. Just tell me which family the girl is from."

"Don't worry that I will oppose your marriage. Even if the girl you like is a beggar, I can still accept it, as long as she is not a man~"

When Mrs. Gu said the last sentence, her voice unconsciously became lower.

Gu Chengyan, who was standing by, was so angry that he laughed at Mrs. Gu's words.

"Mom, in your eyes, is your son really that bad?"

Mrs. Gu smiled awkwardly.

"Haha, that's not the case. It's just that there are rumors about you in the capital. After hearing so many of them, I feel that... haha."

Mrs. Gu said half of what she said, but Gu Chengyan still understood it.

In order to stop the rumor from spreading further, Gu Chengyan considered it carefully and finally decided to propose to Lin Jiuyue.

However, proposing marriage is a big deal, and Gu Chengyan thought about asking Lin Jiuyue's opinion first.

"Mom, don't worry about this. I have to ask her opinion first. If she is willing to marry your son, then you can go and propose marriage."

After hearing what Gu Chengyan said, Mrs. Gu stood up suddenly with a look of shock on her face.

"Son, what did you just say? Do you really have someone you like? Who is it? Tell me now."

Gu Chengyan shook his head.

"I can't tell you this now. I have to ask you first."

Mrs. Gu: ...

"Yes, we can't be careless about this kind of thing. We have to be careful to avoid ruining the girl's reputation."

Even if Gu Chengyan didn't explain, Mrs. Gu guessed something.

After Gu Chengyan left, Mrs. Gu happily took Nanny Gui to prepare the things needed for the marriage proposal.

On this side, Gu Chengyan returned to his yard and became a little absent-minded.

After finally waiting until dawn, Gu Chengyan couldn't wait to go to the General of Cavalry's Mansion.

Seeing Gu Chengyan coming to see him so early, Lin Qiye looked at him in confusion.

"Brother Gu, why did you come here so early today? Do you have something to talk to me about?"

"Qi Ye, I didn't come here to see you today. Where's your sister? I have something to talk to her about."

Lin Qiye blinked and looked at Gu Chengyan in confusion.

"Brother Gu, what do you want to talk to my sister about?"

Gu Chengyan:…

"I can't tell you this. Where is your sister?"

Qi Ye scratched his head.

Then he pointed to Lin Jiuyue's yard.

After learning Lin Jiuyue's direction, Gu Chengyan went straight to Lin Jiuyue's yard without saying anything. He took just two steps and stopped again.

"Qi Ye, could you please ask your sister to come to the pavilion over here? Just tell her I have something to say to her."

Although Lin Qiye was confused, he still nodded and went to inform Lin Jiuyue.

After hearing Lin Qiye's message, Lin Jiuyue went to the pavilion without any doubt.

At this time, Gu Chengyan was sitting in the pavilion absent-mindedly, drinking a cup of tea from time to time. No one knew what he was thinking about.

"Gu Chengyan!"

With Lin Jiuyue's shout, Gu Chengyan's wandering thoughts were pulled back.

"September, you're here?"

Lin Jiuyue nodded and sat down.

"I heard from Qi Ye that you want to talk to me? What is it?"

Gu Chengyan poured a cup of tea for Lin Jiuyue slowly, as if the General of Cavalry's Mansion was his own residence.

"Jiuyue, I came to see you today because I really have something to tell you, and it's something very important."

Lin Jiuyue looked at Gu Chengyan doubtfully.

"What's going on? You've got me a little confused."

Gu Chengyan took a deep breath.

"Jiuyue, there are rumors about me in the capital. I'm sure you've heard about it?"

After listening to this, Lin Jiuyue looked at Gu Chengyan with amusement.

"Gu Chengyan, you are not talking about the rumor that you have an affair with Long Yang, right?"

Lin Qiye has been getting close to Gu Chengyan recently, and there are rumors in the capital that Gu Chengyan has an affair with Long Yang. Some people have even started to throw dirty water on Qiye.

Gu Chengyan's reputation was not a big deal, since he was not in a hurry to get married. But Qi Ye, that kid, would have a hard time finding a wife if he got involved with Gu Chengyan's matter.

"Gu Chengyan, I'm warning you, there are rumors that you have an affair with Long Yang, so you can't get involved with Qi Ye. You don't want to get married, but Qi Ye does. If you get involved with Qi Ye, how can Qi Ye get married in the future?"

Gu Chengyan:…

No, isn't he the biggest victim in this matter? Why does Jiu Yue only care about Qi Ye?

"Ah, September, I don't want to do this either, but they insist on spreading it this way. What can I do?"

Lin Jiuyue glanced at Gu Chengyan with dissatisfaction.

Gu Chengyan is a young general, his father is General Zhenyuan, and his grandfather is General Zhenguo. He doesn't believe that he can't even handle such a small matter.

"Gu Chengyan, stop pretending to be pitiful. Your Gu family has power and money, so how could you not be able to handle such a small matter?"
