Chapter 336
by 乔喵喵Chapter 336
"I want to delay the wedding for two more months. If he agrees, then it means he loves me. If he doesn't agree, then it means he's just acting on a whim. I've already offended my second brother and his wife, my dad, and my mom for his sake, so why can't he even wait a little longer for me?
Besides, waiting is for his own good too."
He Wei was firm in her decision.
He Huihui was anxious to death. Things were going smoothly, so why did she suddenly want to delay things again?
Didn't she used to be in a rush? And she didn't seem to mind Ji Feng's inconsistent behavior. So why was she suddenly acting tough now?
The sooner they started, the better their chances of success.
He Wei's insistence on delaying could mess everything up, couldn't it?
"Huihui, you don't look too well?" He Wei asked with concern when she saw that He Huihui's smile had disappeared and her face looked somewhat pale.
He Huihui was taken aback and forced a weak smile. "No, it's nothing. I just got a bit dizzy because I rushed back. But Weiwei, you really need to think this through.
If you postpone the wedding, who knows what problems might arise.
What if Ji Feng thinks you don't want to marry him?
If he's too heartbroken and some other woman takes the opportunity to swoop in, how would you handle that?"
He Huihui's words hit He Wei's weak spot.
Just as she was about to hesitate, He Ming spoke up. "If he can't even wait a little longer, then he doesn't deserve to have He Wei go against her family for him.
Besides, among the people he knows, my sister is the best. Who could be better than my sister?
If he's so easily swayed, wouldn't he be just as likely to divorce after marriage?
Huihui, it's He Wei's wedding, not yours. Why are you pushing so hard?"
He Ming questioned He Huihui with dissatisfaction.
Was this how He Huihui always persuaded He Wei?
No wonder He Wei's attitude changed so quickly. With He Huihui persuading her like that, how could He Wei not be in a hurry to marry Ji Feng?
How could someone be so bad?
Their whole family was bad!
He Ming's words also confused He Wei. She looked at He Huihui in confusion. "That's right, Huihui, why are you in such a hurry? I'm delaying the wedding for the sake of me and Ji Feng.
Why are you pushing so hard to get me married?"
He Huihui was sweating in anxiety, awkwardly searching for an excuse. "Don't misunderstand me. I'm just afraid that after all the effort you've put into convincing Uncle and the others, something might go wrong again.
You and Ji Feng have been through a lot together.
Weiwei, you really need to think carefully."
He Huihui held He Wei's hand and gently advised her.
"I know what I'm doing; I'll talk to Ji Feng myself." He Wei's concerns deepened, and she furrowed her brow, falling silent.
Seeing her like this, He Huihui knew that He Wei had taken it to heart, and she felt relieved.
Later, she would give Ji Feng a heads-up and tell him to be a bit more assertive. If Ji Feng was firm, He Wei wouldn't dare mention any delays.
"Don't worry, Weiwei. Ji Feng will surely understand you. After all, you're doing this to bring more dowry and for the sake of your future relationship.
If he doesn't agree, then there's clearly something else going on.
Since you've already settled things with him, if he's in a hurry, it just doesn't make sense."
Seeing He Wei hesitate, He Ming hurriedly persuaded her some more.
"He Ming, why are you always persuading Weiwei?" He Huihui glanced at He Ming, who looked upset, and quickly came up with a plan in her mind.
She furrowed her brow and asked him warily, "Are you just pretending to agree and taking her to Ji Feng's house to buy time?
Are you thinking of first calming Weiwei down and then finding a way to break her and Ji Feng up?
You can't do that to Weiwei!
You don't know how much Weiwei loves Ji Feng, and you don't know how much he loves her.
If you mess with them, they might commit suicide out of love. Would you be satisfied if they died?"
He Huihui suddenly became agitated.
Hearing this, He Wei was startled. Does Ji Feng really love me that much?
Wait, does the family have such thoughts?
In an instant, He Wei became wary of He Ming. "You..."
"Don't listen to Huihui's nonsense. The family is preparing for your marriage to Ji Feng. If Mom and Dad wanted to deceive you, wouldn't a simple verbal promise suffice?
Why would we go all the way to Ji Feng's house if we were just going to lie? You know how strict the matriarch is.
If we were to fool them, how would our family be scolded? Mom and Dad wouldn't be able to stay here."
He Ming quickly explained, wishing he could cover He Huihui's mouth. Could she talk any more?
It was clearly not the case!
Thinking about it, He Wei realized it made sense.
"You're right. If Mom and Dad wanted to deceive me, they could just agree verbally at home." He Wei then explained to He Huihui.
"Huihui, don't worry. My parents would never deceive me. There's no need to doubt them.
I know you're doing this for my own good, but I've already decided."
He Wei's attitude was now even more resolute.
He Huihui still wanted to convince He Wei otherwise.
But now, there was no point in arguing. She would have to wait for Ji Feng to speak with her.
Thinking about this, He Huihui immediately got up.
"Huihui, where are you going? Didn't you take a day off?" He Weiwei asked, puzzled.
"I’m stepping out for a while. Since I rarely take leave, I want to go home and check on my mom. You guys don’t need to wait for me for lunch. I’m leaving now." Saying this, she quickly headed out.
He Ming’s expression changed. He had a hunch but didn’t dare to confirm it.
If we bring He Weiwei along, it might tip her off.
But if we just happen to run into her...
"Weiwei, let’s go out and eat something. I’m really hungry," He Ming brought up the topic of eating again.
He Weiwei was feeling hungry too.
"Alright, let’s go out to eat."
They agreed and headed out right away.
As He Ming and He Weiwei headed towards the main gate, Uncle Ji’s place was nearby.
They left shortly after He Huihui, so it wasn’t long before they saw her.
Just as He Weiwei was about to call out, He Ming stopped her. "What are you doing? If we call her, won’t she expect us to invite her to eat with us?
They’ve already taken enough from us.
I heard from Mom that before we were born, Uncle secretly took a sum of money from Dad."
With He Ming’s words, He Weiwei missed the chance to call out to He Huihui.
He Weiwei didn’t care much about family matters.
Especially since He Huihui was helping her so much. Hearing He Ming speak about He Huihui like that made her a little unhappy. "Huihui is different from the rest of Uncle's family, I’m telling you..."
Before she could finish, she saw He Huihui turn a corner, not heading directly out of the gate but towards Uncle Ji’s place.
Seeing this, He Weiwei’s eyes turned red.
Her anger flared up instantly.
