NovelEnglishLu Lixing glanced at it; he did not drink it.
“Old wife, who came?” Ji Qingqing’s father was wearing his reading glasses as he spoke. “Qingqing’s back? Alright, I’ll go buy some vegetables!”
“That’s fine that’s fine. There’s no need to busy yourself with this. Don’t we still have vegetables at home?” Mother Ji glared at Father Ji.
Having received such a glare, Father Ji sat back down again.
“Qingqing ah, why are you back today?”
Ji Qingqing smiled and replied, “It’s nothing much. I’m here to tell the both of you something.”
“What is it?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJi Qingqing looked at Lu Lixing. “We’ve decided to get married.”
“Marry?” Mother Ji raised the pitch of her voice. “What did you say? You wish to marry? Him?”
“Yes, I wish to marry him.”
Mother Ji gritted her teeth and whispered, “Such an outstanding man like Yu Yang you don’t want and you want to be with him?” She slammed her hands on the table and angrily glared at Lu Lixing. “Ji Qingqing, have you thought clearly about this? Are you sure you want to marry him? A… A male company employee?”
Ji Qingqing nodded. “I’ve thought very clearly.”
Originally, Mother Ji was always under the impression that Ji Qingqing’s decision was just a short moment of stupidity and that after dating that person for a while, she will realize how difficult it is when money is lacking. Never did she expect that within a span of two months, not only did they not break up; on the contrary, they were, indeed, intending to marry?
She carefully examined Ji Qingqing from top to bottom before finally moving her gaze to Ji Qingqing’s belly. Then she seriously asked, “Qingqing, tell me honestly, are you pregnant?”
“I’m not pregnant.”
“If you’re not pregnant, then why are you getting married? How long have you two known each other?”
“Pregnancy has nothing to do with me getting married.”
Mother Ji grew irate and pointed her finger at Ji Qingqing. “Do you want me to die out of anger and only then you would stop this? What can you get if you marry him? Who knows, in the future, it might be you who is required to support him financially!”
As she spoke, she looked at Lu Lixing. “You wish to marry my daughter so let me ask you, are you able to pay the dowry?”
“Auntie, rest assured, I will take care of all these and I will also take good care of Qingqing.”
Mother Ji sneered. “From what I see, you’re after my daughter’s money! You’ll use my daughter’s money to pay for all of these!”
Ji Qingqing heard her becoming more and more ridiculous as she spoke further. “I’ve come here today to just inform you that I’m getting married. I don’t intend to ask for your approval.”
When Mother Ji heard what Ji Qingqing said, she got so angry that she became lightheaded. As Father Ji quickly rushed forward to support her, he directed a look towards Ji Qingqing, signaling her to ‘not say anything further.’
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMother Ji covered her chest and took a long while to be calmed down by Father Ji before she finally recovered.
“Are you bent on it?”
Ji Qingqing responded with her silence.
“Fine, fine! You want to get married, sure! You want to marry her, sure too! The dowry doesn’t need to be a lot; I won’t make things difficult for you. 10 million yuan. If you don’t have 10 million yuan, you can forget about marrying my daughter!”
“10 million yuan?” Lu Lixing’s eyelids lifted. “Are you selling your daughter away?”
“My daughter’s a celebrity. Do you know her net worth? How can 10 million yuan compare to it?”
“So, what you meant is, as long as I give you that 10 million yuan, in the future you will have nothing to do with Qingqing?”
Mother Ji laughed coldly. “A married daughter is like water that has been spilt. When she marries out, she’ll obviously not be part of the Ji family!”
“What are you doing?! That’s 10 million!” Ji Qingqing really wished she could cover Lu Lixing’s mouth. “I disagree!”
Lu Lixing really is foolish and rich. With so much money, why would he just hand it out like that?! Does he like charity that much?!
