Yu Hong sneered smilingly in response to Tang Xiu's comment. He had been living in Changxi for many years, and although his Yu Family could not be considered a top-ranked family here, it was not, they were still a middle-class family and naturally understood the thoughts of the juniors of these families.
This joke, however, was related to the faces of the two families, and even if Ji Mu was full of arrogance, it was very unlikely that he would do anything to humiliate the two of them.
At first, he liked Tang Xiu a little. After all, this man was the man that his older sister loved. But now it seemed like this person knew nothing about this situation as well as the braggart, only courting humiliation on himself.
At the door of the restaurant, Ren Ranran stood there, with a face full of hope. He was sure Ji Mu would not reject him. His kind older sisters incited and encouraged him to bet on this rough and dangerous move. He liked Ji Mu so much, to the point that this feeling was etched deep within the heart. However, she also realized that this man felt a little affection for her, and had yet to turn into liking, let alone love.
"You know my character, Ji Mu. What I hate the most is asking the family to do some sort of acrobatic for an arranged marriage. But since three years ago when you drove me to the hospital because of my illness, it was only then that I realized that I liked you. The longer time passed, the deeper this feeling became. My feelings for you are pure, uncontaminated by our so-called status. I like you even if you have nothing and I will follow you with all my heart, until death do us part. Please promise me .. to get married .. no, to take me as your wife. ”
Ji Mu, however, frowned deeply, and there was anger when he looked at her.
Is the child ... he said ... nothing but a chip? While he used their status to force her under public witness?
Ji Mu sneered inside, then took out a cigarette and lit it under everyone's supervision. He did not want to hurt Ren Ranran, but he also did not want to be forced. If it had been a few days ago, he might have felt depressed because of their status and thus promised it. But now…
“I used to think that you were a smart woman, Ranran. At the very least, you didn't bother me after what happened between us last time. So much so that I'll start to like you if you have to finish it step by step and exchange with me like I used to. But ... What you do today is not at all smart. Didn't you just use my son as a chip to coerce me? Like you used our status in Changxi?
“I, Ji Mu, am not a man who treats affection and love like a child's game. If there really was a bond that bound our hearts, I would be the one to take the initiative to court and vow to give a happy life, he said, so you don't need to use this kind of means to force me.
"But now…
"I refuse!"
Ren Ranran was stunned and stunned. He never dreamed that Ji Mu's reaction would be this strong, so much so that the attitude he showed was like.
Is that wrong? Is my love for her a mistake?
I've given you my body to the point that I'm now holding your child.
So why?
For what reason did he ignore the faces of the two families, even rejecting me without feeling like this?
Beaded tears fell on her face as Ren Ranran desperately shook her head. His hand holding the megaphone trembled, as he said loudly, “I have no intention of forcing you, nor do I threaten you, Ji Mu. What I'm doing today is just because I want you to know how much I love you. Because I, Ren Ranran, will do whatever you want, even if I have to get rid of all the obstacles a woman has to have and throw away my honor and reputation just to be with you. ”
"sorry. "Ji Mu nonchalantly shook his head.
In the second floor window.
Yu Hong was tongue-tied and dumbfounded as he watched the drama. No matter how smart his brain was, it stopped working at this moment. His expression as he turned to look at Tang Xiu was filled with disbelief.
"How is this possible?" His voice vibrates.
Tang Xiu only smiled calmly as he had already predicted this outcome. If Ji Mu did not obtain any cultivation techniques from him, he might not have the will or energy to resist. At the very least, he would try to maintain the honor and reputation of the Ji and Ren Families. But now ...even the elders of the Ji Family would not blame him, let alone .. they would not dare to blame him.
“By the way, there are things that I have to maintain within this month, so I'm afraid I can't enjoy the banquet that you will be holding for a while. But if you still want to make your promise come true, hold a party for Master Han because he has plenty of free time! ”
Yu Hong gaped and looked somewhat awkward and flushed. Given how she hated Tang Xiu when they started betting, she now felt that she was the one who was laughable.
"Tang Xiu, you already know Ji Mu, don't you?" Suddenly, this thought appeared in Yu Hong's heart and he suddenly asked.
Tang Xiu himself did not try to hide it as he nodded and said, "I did. We've met a few times. ”
Yu Hong was left without words. Initially, he thought that Tang Xiu was a man who did not know the situation at all, a silly braggart who bragged about things. He never expected that this man turned out to be acquainted with that young master Ji. Now it was clear that he was completely confident when he bet with her, and not just a braggart! He, on the contrary, foolishly looked down on the man instead of taking a clear picture of his situation.
Tang Xiu then looked at the crying Ren Ranran. His expression moved abruptly as he turned to look at Yu Hong again and said with a smile, "Do you dare to bet again?"
Yu Hong scowled his eyes at him and replied in a bitter tone, "You just won against me, what else can I bet you on?"
“I bet Ji Mu will take his words back and accept Ren Ranran. Do you believe it or not? "Tang Xiu smiled.
Once again, Yu Hong peeled off and immediately rolled his eyes again, saying, “Are you still sane? Ji Mu had just resolutely refused, and he did so in public. How could he take back his words given his character, huh? "
"I told you, would you bet or not?" Ask Tang Xiu again.
Yu Hong hesitated for a moment and then said, "Good. I'm in. I'll treat you for two months if you win, but we'll do it even if you lose. ”
"deal. ”
Tang Xiu smiled, got up to press his hands on the window, looked down and shouted, "Hey, Young Master Ji, when a woman wastes her dignity and expresses her deepest affection towards her love, saying, that means that man is the one." who profits! In addition, she is already pregnant with your child, so why not take on the responsibility of being a man? I heard that an irresponsible man would have a famous reputation. That's right, someone told me that grinding a helicopter would not delay the work of cutting firewood. You may have many other important things to do, but you should have a family sooner or later! ”
Below…
The moment Ji Mu heard that familiar voice, his entire body suddenly froze. When she looked up and saw Tang Xiu, her eyes were filled with disbelief, as she did not expect that she would see Tang Xiu here. Furthermore, his awkwardness and shyness made him secretly produce a wry and bitter smile. Tang Xiu was suddenly watching the entire time. This ... basically .. shame and disgrace at the highest point.
Nevertheless, she thought about it and suddenly felt that what Tang Xiu said was reasonable. Ren Ranran even threw away her restraint and dignity as a woman, meaning that she had sealed her own path, and that the feelings she had for her were pure and sincere.
As Tang Xiu had said, grinding the chopping pan did not mean that the work of cutting wood would be delayed, while the "other things" he said should be directed towards his planting. Having a family while immersing yourself in cultivation can indeed be done without affecting each other.
Should I assume responsibility ... or not?
Ji Mu's face continued to change as he slowly clenched his fists.
The crying Ren Ranran also heard Tang Xiu's words and felt grateful inside. She didn't know Tang Xiu, but she secretly decided to thank him regardless of whether Ji Mu would finally accept it or not.
At this moment, a woman in the crowd in black leather clothes and holding a helmet suddenly looked up, stroked the hair on her forehead and shouted to Tang Xiu: I:
“HEY, YOU, HANDSOME! YOU HAVE TO BE THE MAN IN CHARGE SINCE YOU SAID THAT! DO YOU HAVE A GIRL, WITH A CHANCE? IF NOT, WHY DON'T YOU CONSIDER ME? ”
Tang Xiu who was originally smiling suddenly froze. He scratched the back of his head with a confused expression whether he should cry or laugh, and said, “Sorry, Son! I've got a good wife at home, so there's no bed left for you! ”
With that said, he instantly pulled back his head and took out a teacup with a nuisance.
All this time, Han Qingwu had not spoken anything, but the smile at the corner of her mouth had yet to recede. He suddenly couldn't bear to laugh and laugh when he saw Tang Xiu who was now trying to hide his mistake by picking up his teacup. Although Tang Xiu said he wanted to bet with his good sister — Yu Hong some time ago, overall, it turned out that he wanted to bring the romance to a happy ending, which was a happy one, then it made her feel that she had just done it. A good job .
Instead, Yu Hong felt different and could not help but roll his eyes after hearing Tang Xiu. At this moment, he saw the way Han Qingwu looked at Tang Xiu and suddenly couldn't bear to comment, "Tang Xiu, Ji Mu is a descendant of the famous Ji Family in Changxi, Changxi, his eyes always look up. Do you think he'll change his mind just because of your shallow words? Forget it, buddy. ”
"Will he change his mind, who knows?" Tang Xiu put down the tea cup and shrugged with a smile.
At the entrance to the restaurant.
Ji Mu's expression was still constantly changing. He looked at the tearful Ren Ranran, who was filled with longing and anticipation. Finally, he sighed inwardly and stepped forward. After she came before him, she gently wiped the tears on her face and said, “I have no strong and true love to give you. But if you're willing to be with me, give me three days. I'll talk to the elders of my family and then visit you to discuss our marriage. Even if we can't get married, at least we can have an engagement first. Love is not a child's game, so give me time to slowly nurture it. ”
Ren Ranran blinked, and tears flowed from his eyes again. This time it was not sad tears, but tears of joy. He nodded repeatedly with an excited expression, hugged Ji Mu tightly and let go, and then quickly said, "Please wait a moment. ”
With that said, she grabbed the side of her wedding dress and ran to the restaurant. Under everyone's supervision, she walked upstairs to the second floor, came to the front of Tang Xiu, who was by the window, and then said with an expression of gratitude, “Thank you very much, said, Signore. I, Ren Ranran, may not only lose my love but also my future happiness not because of what you say today. I will always remember this kindness and kindness. Please let me know if you have something that needs my help, and I will definitely do it to the best of my ability. ”
“This girl is not bad. "Tang Xiu quietly nodded.
