Nian Junting knitted his brows and frowned as well. He knew how much Nian Xi liked Ji Chuan better than anyone else did. So now, as Nian Xi suddenly became unwilling to get married, he understood that something must have happened. âIâll ask Nian Xi about it,â he said.
âShe has to get married to Ji Chuan, unless he did something really wrong. This is marriage, not a game for children. How am I supposed to talk to the Feng family about this?â Nian Qingyun added before ending the call.
Nian Junting put down the phone, looked at Luosang seriously, and said, âThis afternoon, when you helped Nian Xi shop for her wedding dress, did you see anything wrong between her and Ji Chuan?â
As Nian Juntingâs question was about Nian Xi, Luosang was puzzled for a second and responded, even though she truly didnât want to talk to him, âNot really. What happened to her?â
âShe said that she doesnât want to marry Ji Chuan anymore.â
Luosang was stunned. Everything was fine before they had arrived at the wedding dress store. However, she remembered that Nian Xi was mad at Ji Chuan after Leng Shuangwei showed up. Itâs not because of me, is it? she wondered.
âI believe that Nian Xi is a mature person. If she doesnât want to marry him anymore, she must have a reason for it.â A while later, Luosang said blandly, âPerhaps she suddenly found that she and Ji Chuan arenât a perfect match for each other. Thatâs possible. Although they got engaged a long time ago, Ji Chuan is always away from home. Maybe after spending some time together, she found that he just isnât the right fit.â
âAnyhow, Ji Chuan is a good man,â said Nian Junting. âLast time, things got a little unhappy because of his transfer, but thatâs because he is eager to serve the country with all his heart. His concerns are reasonable.â
âIn terms of career, maybe he is good, but from a womanâs perspective, he might not be caring and considerate enough,â said Luosang.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhat on earth are you talking about?â Nian Junting stood up and said, âIâll go ask Nian Xi and Ji Chuan. I may come home late tonight.â
Luosang stayed silent. He walked over, kissed her lips, then quickly left. Luosang touched her lips and paused for a short while without knowing what to do. After that, she went back upstairs and called Nian Xi. âI hear a lot of noise. Where are you?â
âIâm at the police station, working,â said Nian Xi.
âYou still feel like working?â Luosang sighed. âAre you canceling the wedding?â
âYou got the message pretty fast.â Nian Xi laughed bitterly. âYes, that is right.â
âNian Xi, are you having a fight with Ji Chuan because of me? Donât act on impulse just because of a quarrel. You love him so much. Give him a chance to make it right...â
Nian Xi interrupted her and said with a very bitter voice, âItâs not because of you. I just feel that he doesnât love me so much, or maybe he doesnât love me at all. For many things, he just wonât put himself in my shoes and think of things from my perspective. Sangsang, I, Nian Xi, will only get married for love. I love him, and I demand that he love me enough, too. I am not willing to get married for other reasons. Marriage is about my whole life. Iâm afraid that I might regret it someday if I start this marriage just like this.â
âYou think Ji Chuan doesnât love you enough?â Luosang was stunned.
âIâm not sure. I found that I donât know him well anymore. Iâd rather get married later than marry the wrong person. Iâm not afraid of being laughed at. Itâll be better than suffering pain in the wrong marriage,â said Nian Xi.
Luosang understood her. Instead of trying to make things work, marriage was about love. There should be no doubts in a marriage. Nian Xi had doubts, so she didnât want to marry Ji Chuan anymore. What about herself? She hadnât gotten married to Nian Junting, but they already lived together. Now, she had learned that he might be with her because of sex.
