Chapter 339 Eula makes a choice in her heart
After calming down his anger, Gu Chen looked at Youla with concern:
"So, you've been running to the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain to avoid trouble?
Because in other places, people from your family will still come to you and force you to get married.
But in the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, it's not so easy for them to get in, so you can have some peace and quiet."
With a deep sigh, Eula closed her eyes and nodded slowly:
"That's it.
I came to Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain to avoid trouble, but I didn't expect to meet Albedo and the troubles that followed.
My life is such a mess."
Even Eula, who has always been high-spirited and unyielding, has begun to lament life. This shows how big of a blow this incident has been to Eula.
Think about it too.
In the original game story, Eula's uncle colluded with the Fatui and planned to sell out the country, but Eula was not so angry or desperate.
But this time, the Lawrence family really went too far!
They didn't treat Eula as a human being at all. They treated her completely as a commodity to be married off for money and for their own enjoyment!
How could Eula not feel cold towards her family after being treated like this?
Eula was clearly working diligently to find ways to change the family, but in the end the family treated her like this?
No wonder she felt a little desperate.
Noticing the despair in Youla's eyes towards her family, Gu Chen felt a little concerned.
As I said before, this is a matter of having your cake and eating it too.
Sooner or later, Eula will have to make a choice between her family and Mond.
Now it seems that although the Lawrence family did hurt Eula deeply, this incident also forced Eula to consider giving up her own family.
After all, what the Lawrence family did was really too much, and Eula was really a little desperate.
So from this perspective, this is not entirely a bad thing. At least it allows Eula to gradually make up her mind.
While thinking about this, Gu Chen began to ask Eula carefully:
"Eula, do you have any ideas?
Hiding from trouble in the snowy mountains is indeed a solution, but it is only a temporary solution.
When you are not in Mondstadt, you cannot predict how far your marriage will go.
To put it bluntly, the Lawrence family might have already married you off to that fat guy, both legally and nominally!
Eula was stunned when she heard this:
"What do you mean by nominally and legally?"
Gu Chen looked a little troubled, but still said:
"For example... publicize your marriage widely, let the whole of Mond know that you married Chayevich, and make it a fact first.
In that case, even if you disagree, you will be pressured by public opinion, and the boiling voices will force you to retreat and force you to submit."
Following Gu Chen's guess, Youla's face couldn't help but look a little bad:
"They...really dare to do such a thing!?"
Gu Chen looked helpless:
"What do you think?
Given the personalities of those in your family, would they be so ruthless?"
Eula was silent, she had nothing to say.
This silence meant that the Lawrence family might really be capable of doing something so ruthless.
Not only Eula was silent, but everyone else was silent as well.
No one knew what to say or how to comfort Eula, and the atmosphere in the camp was very heavy for a while.
Suddenly, Eula sighed in relief, and she tried hard to put a smile on her face again:
"Gu Chen, thank you for your reminder, I understand now.
Simply avoiding trouble obviously will not solve the problem. These things must be faced eventually.
In any case, I have no intention of getting married for the time being, and I will definitely not agree to this matter!
It's time for me to make a choice and a decision.
"At worst, I'll make this a big deal! At worst, I'll completely fall out with the family! At worst, I'll... break off all ties with the family!"
In the end, Eula said the four words "breaking off all ties" with gritted teeth.
When she said this, her eyes were filled with tears because of the light from the bonfire.
It can be seen how determined Eula was and how uncomfortable she felt when she made this decision.
There is no way. After all, she has paid so much for the family and shouldered double blame and double responsibility. It is not easy to completely cut off ties with the family.
I guess the pain Eula is feeling at this moment is like having flesh cut out of her heart.
Looking at Eula worriedly, Paimon couldn't help but comfort her:
"Eula, you...you don't have to be so decisive.
Maybe... maybe there's room for improvement, maybe the situation isn't that bad?"
Looking at the little guy Paimon, Eula smiled firmly:
"Okay, you don't have to comfort me.
Foolish me, I should have seen this reality long ago."
At this point, Eula made a firm decision:
"Tomorrow I'll go back to Mondstadt with you from Dragonspine Snow Mountain!
Some things must be faced and resolved!"
Seeing that Eula had already made the decision, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Gu Chen and Albedo looked at each other, and they reached a tacit understanding to help Eula as much as possible, and planned to act according to the circumstances when the time came.
That’s about it for today’s conversation.
It was getting late and everyone's tents had been set up, so everyone went back to their tents to rest in this somewhat heavy atmosphere.
Ah, by the way.
There is an alchemical formation around Albedo's camp.
Although you still need to sleep in a tent when sleeping in the camp, you don’t need to assign people to take turns to keep watch!
This is quite good and worth celebrating.
A night passed, and shortly after dawn the next day, everyone got up, washed, had breakfast, and packed up the tents in turn. I won't mention this.
After packing up, everyone left Albedo's camp and started walking down the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, planning to leave here and return to Mondstadt.
As we hurried on, the temperature gradually rose and the snowy scenery was left behind.
They finally left the frigid climate and returned to the warm environment of the Mondstadt wilderness.
After traveling in the wilderness of Mondstadt for a while and camping outdoors for one night, they finally arrived in Mondstadt on the morning of the third day!
Standing in front of the long stone bridge connecting to Mondstadt, looking at the city walls of Mondstadt, and taking in the relatively familiar surroundings, Gu Chen sighed:
“It’s been a while since I last came here, and the place hasn’t changed much.
Well...it's not that there haven't been changes.
There are many more flowers, plants and ribbons decorating the stone bridge. This should be prepared for the Wind Flower Festival, right?
There is a festive atmosphere, which looks quite nice.”
Floating beside Gu Chen, Paimeng nodded happily in agreement:
“Although I haven’t entered Mondstadt yet, I can definitely feel the festive atmosphere.
Hehe, this time I’m going back to Mondstadt to celebrate the Windblume Festival, it’s really my turn!
Gu Chen, and everyone else, let's not dawdle any longer and quickly enter Mondstadt..."
Before Paimeng could finish his words, there was a loud explosion on the stone bridge in front of everyone!
And before the bang, there seemed to be a cute "whoosh" sound!
