Fan Yumeng, who had been looking down, suddenly raised her head, âJi Ziâang, how can you say that?â
-Why canât I? Do you really want to marry me? Do you think our house is a money-printing factory? Our family has no money. If you want to marry, then marry. If you donât, then weâll break up.â
âWhy is there no money? Your parentsâ supermarket is so big. How can they not have money? Besides, didnât you just win an award? The bonus alone was quite a lot, right? I think youâre just trying to get something for nothing. You want to marry my daughter without spending a single cent. No way.â Father Fan glared at him.
These words were too much. Li Xu and Zhang Kunâs expressions were also extremely ugly.
The Fan family was blatantly plotting against their family.
Beside her, Ji Zixuan looked at Huang Weiwei worriedly.
When the two of them got married, Huang Weiwei did not ask for many betrothal gifts.
Although her family had given her a lot of money, Weiweiâs request was too small compared to Fan Yumengâs one million yuan betrothal gift and a house in the Second Ring Road.
Therefore, he was afraid Huang Weiwei would feel uncomfortable.
Reality proved that he was overthinking things.
Huang Weiwei didnât care about these things. Her parents-in-law had a scale in their hearts and wouldnât mistreat her and Zixuan.
Moreover, in the few years that she had been married, her parents-in-law had treated her no differently from Yuanyuan. She was already very content.
Huang Weiwei reached out to hold his hand and silently comforted him.
Holding back his anger, he looked at Fan Yumeng again, âWhat do you mean by that?â
Fan Yumeng looked at him with tears in her eyes. She choked on her tears as
she said, âI might be pregnant.â
What?
Ji Ziâang was stunned. He stared blankly at Fan Yumengâs face before shifting his gaze to her stomach.
Fan Yumeng clutched her stomach, tears finally falling, âSo, do you think I want to marry you?â
Li Xu and Zhang Kun looked at each other with shock in their eyes.
This fellow, Ji Ziâang, is so fast?
âZiâang, youâre busy with your career now, and itâs very dangerous. But Yumeng likes you, so her father and I can only support her choice. Weâve made many requests because we want you to prove that youâll be good to Yumeng and responsible for the child. But youâre making excuses now. How can we trust you with our daughter? You can just say it if you donât want to marry Yumeng. Taking advantage of the young age, Yu Mengâs body wouldnât be hurt that much.â Fan Yumengâs mother said gently and firmly.
Li Xu sighed in her heart. Since things had developed to this point, she could only agree no matter how ridiculous the request was.
If they disagreed, they would become the murderers of Fan Yumengâs baby.
Fan Yumengâs mother looked weak, but her words were sharp.
Moreover, Tangtang was only Ziâangâs niece, but he liked her so much.
If it was his own child, how much would he like it?
She had to keep this child for her son.
âYumengâs Mother, thereâs no doubt that our son wants to marry Yumeng. Itâs just that our family really doesnât have that much money. How about this? We can give you a million yuan betrothal gift and a car. As for the houseâ¦
Li Xu hesitated for a moment and continued, âCan you transfer the house under Ziâangâs name to Yumeng?â
The veins on his forehead popped. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not say anything.
For the sake of the child, he could only agree to their familyâs conditions. He didnât dare to bet. What if Fan Yumeng was really willing to abort the child? Since he had done it, he had to take responsibility for his actions and for this child.
Fan Yumengâs parents looked at each other with confused expressions.
A moment later, Fan Yumengâs father said, âSince thatâs the case, weâre not an unreasonable family. We know Ziâang is busy, and Yumeng wonât look good getting married with a big belly. Therefore, there was no need for the engagement ceremony. He just had to get things done as soon as possible and then get married.â
Li Xu forced a smile, âSure. While Ziâang is in the country, let him take Yumeng to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow. He wanted to see how Yumengâs body was doing. He wanted to hold the wedding as soon as possible if it was
suitable.â
Li Xu wasnât a fool. He couldnât let the Fan family lead them by the nose.
Whether Fan Yumeng was pregnant or not, only she knew.
What if the money and the house were given out, but Fan Yumeng was not pregnant at all? Wouldnât their family become a sucker?
She was willing to pay for her grandson or granddaughter, but she was not willing to pay for Fan Yumeng.
Before today, she had always had a good impression of Fan Yumeng.
However, after today, even if Fan Yumeng and Ji Ziâang got married, she would still have a knot in her heart. She could not treat Fan Yumeng the way she
treated Weiwei.
It wasnât that she was worried about the money, but Fan Yumengâs attitude today made her feel disappointed.
If Fan Yumeng had said something for Ji Ziâang today, she would not have felt so disappointed.
Clearly, Fan Yumengâs thoughts were not on Ziâang.
But who asked their son to make a mistake?
If she had a child before marriage, wouldnât she still be led by the nose?
Of course, if it was those people with bad intentions. The woman was pregnant, so she was at the mercy of the man. After all, abortion did not hurt the manâs body.
However, Li Xu and Zhang Kun were not ruthless people. Even though they knew that the Fan family was using their children to manipulate them, they still had to take the bait.
Fan Yumeng pursed her lips and nodded, âLetâs go tomorrow.
Ji Ziâang did not say anything. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and left without eating.
Seeing this, Huang Weiwei nudged him, indicating for him to chase after her. Ji Ziâang was in a fit of anger now. It would be bad if something happened. Ji Zixuan gave Huang Weiwei a reassuring look before chasing after her. Li Xu and Zhang Kun were not in the mood to eat anymore. They stood up and were about to leave.
Huang Weiwei hurried forward and helped Li Xu up.
Seeing this, Fan Yumengâs father asked, âThe dishes are all served. Arenât you going to eat?â
Li Xuâs body paused for a moment, âYou guys eat. Iâm not feeling well. I wonât accompany you.â
âThen the billâ¦â Fan Yumengâs father blurted out.
Fan Yumengâs mother quickly grabbed his arm.
Fan Yumengâs father fell silent.
Huang Weiweiâs expression also became a little ugly. She asked Li Xu in a low voice, âIâll do it?â
Li Xu nodded. She did not want to continue pestering them over such a small matter.
Huang Weiwei looked coldly at the Fan family, âYou guys continue eating. Iâll pay the bill.â
After Li Xu and the others left, Fan Yumengâs father heaved a sigh of relief.
Fan Yumengâs brother, who had been silent all this while, asked with uncertainty, âNow that weâve offended their family, will Sister still have a good life after she gets married?â
