Reborn as a Fake Heiress Marrying the Tycoon novel Chapter 970

Chapter 970: I Was Being Impulsive

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Huang Fei never imagined that chasing someone down in person to buy meat would lead to an outright refusal.

She pursed her lips, feeling insulted. What kind of person is Gu Zi? Huang Fei had even offered to pay for the meat, yet still, Gu Zi wouldn’t sell. Her husband ran a pig farm, for heaven’s sake! How could they possibly be running low on pork?

Clearly, it was just an excuse!

Fuming, her tone turned icy as she muttered while walking away, “Fine. Your family’s so amazing, huh? Got meat to eat while the rest of us don’t? Keep it all to yourself, then. Who cares? It’s not like going without pork is going to kill me. We’ll see if I can’t manage without it!”

Gu Zi didn’t bother responding. She quietly shut the door, only to turn around and find herself face-to-face with Su Jing, whose anger was barely contained.

“Sister-in-law, that was the right move! There’s no way we should be selling meat to the Xu family. Who do they think they are? It’s bad enough I haven’t taken a knife to them in revenge for my sister, and now that woman has the nerve to come begging for pork!” Su Jing’s indignation radiated through the room.

Gu Zi walked further inside, her composure unshaken. “I didn’t refuse to sell to Huang Fei out of spite. The woman’s suspicious by nature and loves stirring up trouble. With this swine fever spreading, if anything happens after she eats the pork I sell her, you can bet she’ll point the finger straight at me. It’s not worth the risk. She’d not only cause me trouble but potentially ruin the reputation of the pig farm.”

She spoke with such measured calm, as though discussing the weather. Gu Zi knew women like Huang Fei all too well. This wasn’t a matter of pettiness or revenge; it was simply about avoiding unnecessary headaches.

Su Jing wasn’t entirely convinced. “Sister-in-law, are you trying to say that my sister’s death is too old a matter to bother pursuing? If that’s how you feel, just tell me, and I’ll take care of it myself!” Her voice was fierce, her eyes sharp.

Gu Zi, unfazed, plopped onto the sofa and started stacking little wooden blocks with Su Le. “You’re jumping to conclusions again,” she said leisurely. “Su Jing, did you even listen to what Huang Fei said just now? Xu Sheng’s father might not even be Xu Ye. According to her, she’s been with her husband since their school days, and except for this recent transfer, her husband has never worked outside the capital.”
