After I was murdered, my scumbag uncle went completely crazy

Chapter 297 I Didn’t Promise to Give You the Dowry

I carefully noticed something was wrong and asked quickly.

Gu Hanting hesitated for a while, but still said to me.

"The master called me today and said he came for your gift. Do you really agree to hand the gift over to him?"

I was slightly stunned, because I didn't say this at all, so I subconsciously shook my head.

"I never said that. I never said I would give him the betrothal money!"

I said this anxiously, but I couldn't help frowning. I didn't expect that Father Chi had reached this level and could even talk nonsense.

If I really gave them the dowry, I couldn't believe what their faces would become. What's more, the man is still lying in the hospital and being monitored by Chi's father. I can't make things too awkward with them for now.

Perhaps noticing that I was in a bad mood, Gu Hanting put his arm around me, patted my shoulder and comforted me.

"Don't get excited. I'm not that stupid. I can see that they are doubtful about what they said, so I came back to confirm the situation with you."

"Well, just don't give them the dowry. I don't have any other requirements."

I nodded and spoke a little timidly.

Now I have to get married, deal with the time issue, and maintain a good relationship with Jiu Ye to prevent them from discovering any flaws. This series of things makes me dizzy and I feel so exhausted.

But Gu Hanting could see how tired I was, and thought I was tired from getting married, so he hugged me tighter.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

"The vegetative patient in the hospital..."

I kept thinking about this question in my mind, and finally I couldn't help but speak.

Hearing this, Gu Hanting smiled and patted my shoulder, then comforted me.

"Don't worry, when have I ever let you down?"

I believed him, so I didn't hesitate at his words and just nodded with a smile.

"Well, I believe you."

Then, I snuggled into his arms, but couldn't help but continue asking questions.

"My father is keeping a close eye on him right now. Maybe he knows this is a way to counter me, so do you have any plans?"

For things like this, I think it's better to ask clearly in advance, so that if there are any problems in the future, you can take care of them in advance.

"Although that person is under the supervision of Mr. Chi, I have shares in that hospital, so it is easy for me to do anything I want."

When I heard what Gu Hanting said, my heart sank into my stomach.

In that case, I feel relieved.

However, before we had taken a few bites of our meal, Gu Hanting's cell phone rang.

After seeing the person coming, Gu Hanting looked at me, and the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.

I looked at him with some confusion, not understanding what he wanted to express.

Gu Hanting pursed his lips, then picked up the phone and spoke.

"Hello, Mr. Chi, what can I do for you?"

The extremely flattering voice of Chi's father immediately came from the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Gu, I don't have anything special to say. I just called to ask you, when can we get the dowry?"

When I heard this, I almost couldn't help but burst out laughing.

This family of theirs is really haunting. They have spent so much effort just for the dowry. Wouldn't it be better to use that energy to make more money on their own?

Gu Hanting looked at me, his voice still gentle and respectful, but he rejected his words without leaving a trace.

"I'm sorry, I just asked Xixi, and he said that he didn't agree to give you the dowry, so I think it would be better for you to confirm it with Xixi."

Father Chi probably didn't expect that Gu Hanting would ask me before giving him the dowry, so he was stunned for a moment. Although he wanted to get angry, he still swallowed his anger in front of Gu Hanting.

"Is that so? Maybe my question is wrong. Please check it again later."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Hanting put the phone aside helplessly and rubbed his eyebrows. Perhaps he also felt that Mr. Chi was really a difficult person.

I pursed my lips, looked at Gu Hanting's helpless expression, and also looked at my mobile phone. Logically speaking, Father Chi should call me soon.

Sure enough, he called me before I even finished my meal.

I couldn't help but smile. It was really not easy to eat this meal.

Before I could say anything after I picked up the phone, I heard Chi's father cursing at me.

"Chi Xi, didn't I tell you before not to disobey me? I asked you to tell him to give me the dowry, and this is what you did to me, right?"

Hearing his aggressive tone, I glanced at Gu Hanting next to me. His face was also very bad. It was obvious that he was very angry about Chi's father's attitude. However, because I didn't say anything, he also remained silent.

"father……"

I wanted to say something to make the atmosphere less awkward, but as soon as I opened my mouth, Mr. Chi started yelling and interrupted me.

I felt a little helpless. It wasn't that I didn't give him face.

"What did I tell you? If you don't listen to me, just wait for your sister who is in a vegetative state in the hospital to be left dead in the wilderness!"

Hearing him speak so harshly, I also frowned. After exchanging glances with Gu Hanting, I just said something slowly.

"Dad, actually...Gu Hanting is right next to me."

After saying that, the smile on my face deepened, and I added, "Besides, I'm using the hands-free mode."

The voice on the other end of the phone stopped abruptly. It was so quiet that I thought the call was hung up. But when I saw that the call was still going on, I couldn't help but ask again.

"Dad, why are you silent? Is there something wrong over there?"

Not long after, the voice came back from the other end of the phone. At this time, Mr. Chi's face changed completely, as if he had transformed into a living person, and he smiled at me attentively.

"Xixi, Dad was too anxious just now, so his attitude was a bit bad. Don't take it to heart. I have raised you so much, you should know what tone I usually use to you, so what happened just now was purely an accident, don't think too much about it."

Listening to his words, I just smiled and looked at Gu Hanting beside me, wanting to see his reaction.

Gu Hanting is certainly not a fool. He spoke to me with that attitude and expected me to be nice to him?

Seeing this, Gu Hanting took my phone directly and said to Mr. Chi on the other end of the phone.

"Boss Chi, I believe you have also seen that Xixi did not agree to give you the dowry. In this case, let the dowry stay with him. It is difficult for girls to gain a foothold in society, so it is also a good thing for him to have more money in his hands."

After hearing his words, I felt warm in my heart.
