Meng Yu was taken aback. She only realized what she had said afterwards, but she could not take it back after the words had been spoken.
Meng Yu looked at the huge size bed, she couldn't imagine what she would be like sleeping on it with Mr. Chu. She felt a little hot on her face. In order to hide her embarrassment, she smiled, pretending to be calm and said, "It seems that husband and wife should sleep together."
Meng Yu walked to the dressing table where a small box was piled up with her personal belongings. Originally, she came to pack up her things to hide her embarrassment, but she was stunned when she opened the box and saw a pile of photos piled in the box.
That is a picture of her and Xiao Qi.
Naturally, Chu Xiujin saw it too. He asked her, "What do you plan to do?"
Meng Yu took out the photo and threw it on the dressing table. "Useless things, just throw them away."
At this time, someone knocked at the door. The two turned their heads to look at the door. The door did not close, but they saw a helper standing there with a respectful expression, "Madam, the carpet is here, please come and check the color."
Meng Yu did not react, and Chu Xiujin rushed to the side and said, "Go and take a look."
"..."
Only then did Meng Yu realize that the wife called by the servant was her.
Yes, she is now Chu Xiujin's legal wife and the mistress of this house.
Meng Yu was a little embarrassed. After the helper went out and seeing the carpet, she came in again to try to process the photos, but found that the pile of photos was missing. Meng Yu thought that Chu Xiujin was still in the room before she left. She wanted to ask him if he helped her deal with it.
Chu Xiujin was in the study room. She found the study room and knocked on the door, and there was an answer from inside. She pushed the door in and saw him sitting behind the huge desk in the study. He saw her come in and asked, "What's wrong? Not satisfied with the carpet?”
"No, the carpet is very beautiful. I came to ask if you saw those pictures of me?"
"I asked someone to clean up the things just now. Didn't you say that you want to throw those photos away?"
"Okay, I just came over to ask, just throw it away. The wedding will be in a few days, so I'll go back and prepare.
"Well, Nana will send you back, be careful on the way."
Meng Yu was about to close the door and inadvertently swept into the bottom of his desk and saw a cut corner of the photo. Meng Yu was a little confused, but she didn't think much, bowed her head and closed the door.
It doesn't have to be the corner of the photo. Just looking at the image, even the corner of the photo is not necessarily hers. Besides, what does Chu Xiujin do with her photo?
Meng Yu didn't think much about it. Tomorrow was her wedding with Chu Xiujin and she had to prepare well.
Wang Shuyuan came to Wang Weiguo's study to find him that night.
Wang Weiguo did not expect that Wang Shuyuan would come to him. Wang Shuyuan lost her mother when she was eight years old and their father and daughter relationship were not very close. Later, he married Qi Mei. With Qi Mei's mediation, the relationship between the father and daughter was better. Although the daughter is the father’s little padded jacket, Wang Shuyuan and Wang Weiguo did not have much in common, and the two did not usually communicate.
(T/N : "Little padded jacket" is generally used to describe a daughter. Girls have innate gentle and delicate emotions, and their friendship with their parents is more Intimate, so a daughter as "little jacket", as warm the hearts of parents.)
Wang Shuyuan came to him and Wang Weiguo was happy. He hurriedly asked, "Yuanyuan, are you looking for dad?"
"Is the marriage of Meng Yu and Chu Xiujin really decided like this?"
"What does Yuanyuan mean, this? Isn't the matter settled?"
Wang Shuyuan stretched out her hand and hooked her hair, lowering her head to hide the irritability in her eyes.
Wang Weiguo probably also guessed her intention. He tentatively asked, "Have you changed your mind?"
Wang Shuyuan crossed her chest and walked to the window. She turned her back to Wang Weiguo and said, “It is better for me to marry Chu Xiujin than Meng Yu marrying Chu Xiujin. After all, I am your own daughter. Only if I marry Chu Xiujin will I spare no effort to help you."
"That's right, but you didn't want to marry back then?"
Wang Shuyuan said nothing.
She really didn’t want to marry at the time because she thought that Chu Xiujin was just like the rumors. She couldn’t marry a half-crippled man who was only 1.67 meters tall and looks ugly. Even if he is powerful, she will not marry him.
But, who knows that Chu Xiujin is completely different from rumors, he is excellent in appearance and figure. Coupled with the means, the ability and the high position, this kind of man is simply the best in a million. She has been reluctant to get married just waiting for such a man to appear, only a man like him can be worthy of her.
Wang Shuyuan said again, "Just change it back. The person he was going to marry was originally me."
Wang Weiguo sighed heavily, "How can things be that simple? You may not know, that time Meng Yu went to see Chu Xiujin. On the second day after they met, Chu Xiujin sent his assistant specially to come over and beat me. It probably meant that Mr. Chu had tolerated us changing the bride once, so don’t blame him for being rude if we changed again. Originally, it was our fault first. If we change again this time, maybe I can't stay in Yancheng any longer."
Wang Shuyuan turned around and looked at him. Wang Weiguo's expression didn't seem to be lying to her. She didn't expect that Chu Xiujin would send someone to beat her father. She thought that this person didn't take marriage seriously. Otherwise, he would not agree so readily when their family replaced her with Meng Yu. She thought it was right. It is the same for him to marry anyone.
So she felt that it was not impossible to replace the bride with her, not to mention the person he was going to marry was her.
It's just...
Even after meeting Meng Yu, he asked someone to beat her father.
Could it be that Chu Xiujin was fascinated by her when she saw her? But she found it strange, isn't Chu Xiujin very powerful and smart? He didn't look like the kind of person who would be fascinated by beauty.
Or is it that men are all virtues and only look at their faces?
"Don't think about Chu Xiujin anymore. In the future, Dad will help you choose a great husband." Wang Shuyuan frowned and did not answer, "I won't bother you."
She came out of Wang Weiguo's office, with her back to the door, a sneer slowly rose from the corner of her mouth.
Meng Yu is a good one, but how can a cheap girl do as a wealthy wife? Sooner or later she will make jokes with such a silly face. When the time comes, she will be swept out by the Xia family, see where she put her face.

Ai Qing’s illnesses relapse again and again. In order to take care of her, Xiao Qi had to go to the hospital every day after work. At night, when he was with Ai Qing’s bed and watched her infusion, his phone rang.
Zhan Xun is another vice president of Pangda Linghang, mainly responsible for overseas markets.
"Xiao Qi, Ah Ran gave me the task of data evaluation. You also know that I haven't touched a computer for many years. Many things are a bit rusty. When will you come back to help me?"
"I'm too busy lately to do it. Didn't I ask Aran to help me? He should be fine recently, right?"
"He is going to the wedding, saying that these two days will not be available."
"Wedding?" He asked casually, "Whose Wedding?"
"it was Mrs. Han's wedding."
"..."
Xiao Qi was stiff, but he quickly realized, "Is it the wedding of the chairman of Beiyue?"
"It seems to be."
Xiao Qi held the phone for a long time without responding, and Zhan Xun said something but he couldn't listen anymore.
"When is the wedding?" he asked.
"What's the matter?" Zhan Xun seemed to be frightened by his tone, "I heard it was tomorrow."
Tomorrow... Xiao Qi hung up the phone. He felt that the room suddenly became cold. No, at this moment, He seemed to be in the ice cellar. The air around him got into his bones, making him feel pain all over his body.
Ai Qing asked, "What's wrong with you? What happened?"
"Meng Yu is getting married, tomorrow." He said subconsciously.
Tomorrow, tomorrow... isn't it three months later? Why is it so sudden?
No! No way! He had to meet her, he had to ask her what was going on.
Ai Qing saw him walking out quickly, and hurriedly called him, "Where are you going?"
She probably spoke too quickly and coughed violently even clutching her chest, as if coughing out her entire lungs..
However, Xiao Qi seemed to have lost his soul. He couldn't hear what she said and couldn't see her pain at all. He ran out of the ward without even turning his head. At this time, there was only one belief in his mind. He wanted to see Meng Yu and he had a lot to say to her.
Meng Yu got up early in the morning to put on makeup and wedding dresses. As soon as the time was up, she would leave for the church, but it was still early after she had cleaned up, so she sat on the sofa to rest.
Qi Mei came in to let the makeup artist and the assistant that Chu Xiujin arranged to take care of her to go out first. She had something to say to Meng Yu. Everyone understood the feeling of mothers sending their daughter to marry, and they didn't say anything. After they went out, they closed the door for the two of them. Only the mother and daughter were left in the room.
Qi Mei squatted beside Meng Yu and held her hand on her knees. She said to her with a pair of red eyes, "Niuniu has grown up and will be married today."
People say that when their daughter gets married, she must cry to express her dissatisfaction with her natal, but Meng Yu looked at Qi Mei blankly and forgave herself for being unable to cry.
"I know that you have been wronged over the years, but you will get better in the future. You become the mistress of Beiyue, and you have a husband like Chu Xiujin. From now on, no one can bully you."
Meng Yu still didn't speak, but looked at her calmly.
"Mr. Chu's appearance is not as unbearable as the outside world. Not only that, he is tall and handsome, and he is a real dragon among people. So Niuniu is lucky, and your luck will always be with you. The Xia family will be happy too."
"What are you trying to say?"
Maybe it was Meng Yu's words that were too cold. Qi Mei froze for a moment, her eyes overflowing with a little bit of loss, she sighed, took a bank card from her pocket and stuffed it into Meng Yu's hand.
"There are three million on this card. You hold it. This is the best thing Mom can give you."
"..."
Although Wang Weiguo is rich, he is not generous to their mother and daughter. Although he usually buys jewelry for Qi Mei, Qi Mei and Meng Yu have fixed pocket money. Qi Mei was able to save three million, which was probably all the private money she could save after marrying the Wang family for so many years.
"It's okay to save the money you saved for the future. What do you do for me?"
"Although the money is not much, if one day... Of course, what mother said is if, if one day you divorce Chu Xiujin, Having these three million is enough to ensure that you can live the rest of your life. This is the retreat your mother has left for you. You take it, don’t let people know, understand?"
Meng Yu stared at this card for a long time without speaking.
If you really want to ask her if she hates Qi Mei, she hates her. She took her to marry another man less than half a year after her father passed away. In order to be a good stepmother, she deliberately favors Wang Shuyuan and she doesn't know how much she has suffered in the Wang family these years.
But at this moment, when she looked at the card, she felt that her nose was a little sore. At this moment, she really felt it, the love of a mother for her daughter.
But after so many years, the feelings are still weak after all and it is really not enough to cry, It’s too hypocritical.
"Promise mom, You have to be good, okay?
Meng Yu clenched the card she put into her hand, and said, "Don't worry, I will live well, better than everyone else."
"That's good, That's good."
After Xiao Qi left Ai Qing ward, he went directly to the airport, but the earliest flight to Yancheng was only at 6 o'clock in the morning. He arrived at Yancheng at 8:30. And then he took another hour by car to Wang's house.
Originally, he was skeptical, but when he saw the lively scene of Wang's family with lights and festoons at the door of Wang's house, he finally realized that their wedding was indeed ahead of schedule. Meng Yu was getting married and she was going to marry someone else now.
Xiao Qi knocked on the door of Wang's house, and it was an old man who came to open the door. Xiao Qi had been here before and the old man naturally recognized him. He was surprised: "You are Mr. Xiao, are you coming...?"
Xiao Qi has no more time talking nonsense with him, he directly said to him: "I'm here to find Meng Yu."
He said that and as he was going to go inside, the old man behind him said to him: "Miss Meng Yu has left."
Xiao Qi body stiffened, the feeling of being in the ice cellar hit again. He turned his head and asked in his calmest voice: "Where has she gone?"

The old man said, "The time has come, she has gone to church. "
Xiao Qi only felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He took a step back. She has already gone to church?

Tsk tsk tsk Xiao Qi you're hoping for the impossible. Better go for the embrace of your "childhood friend".
ReplyDeleteOhoo the sister is annoying as a fly. And that ex bf too
ReplyDeleteI've said before and will say it again, MC and Xiao Qi's story would be a very good plot in another novel if they eloped(only that the story says that it was a forced and arranged marriage), and I would be there to read it lol
ReplyDeleteI don't hate him, it's just I don't like him for his relationship and action towards MC and the obviously scheming 'white moonlight' Ah Qin.
