Chapter 343

As soon as He Zhifei and Qi Yingying saw Ji Feng, their smiles vanished, and their expressions turned cold.

The moment He Wei saw them in the living room, her suspicions deepened.

The two of them were actually sitting in the hall, laughing and talking.

What were they talking about?

Why wasn’t Huihui more discreet? Was she really not trying to steal Ji Feng?

Ji Feng...

"Weiwei, you're back just in time. Ji Feng came to see you, but since you were gone so long, he was about to leave. I didn’t know how to keep him here and was really worried.

Now that you're back, it’s perfect. I’ll go help out in the kitchen.

Uncle, I bought some meat this afternoon when I came back. Shall we make dumplings for the family?"

Huihui spoke up first.

Hearing that she had actually spent money on meat, Qi Yingying was quite surprised.

They hadn’t seen Huihui contribute to the household by buying anything in years.

He Zhifei, though surprised, didn’t get angry at his niece.

He also didn’t ask her to cook: "Go rest in your room. Let your aunt handle the cooking."

"No need, I took the afternoon off today, I’m not tired at all." Huihui’s initiative made Qi Yingying feel a bit better.

"Alright, come with me to the kitchen."

As soon as the two left, Ji Feng stood up, greeted He Zhifei, and then asked He Wei, "Weiwei, can we talk in private?"

"Sure."

He Wei was filled with anger, but then she remembered what He Ming had said.

Although He Ming wasn’t reliable, this time he made sense. She couldn’t let Ji Feng’s heart be broken. If she misunderstood him and Huihui again, how disappointed would he be?

She decided to be more cautious.

Once they were outside, Ji Feng wasted no time and got straight to the point, "I heard from Huihui that you want to postpone our wedding date?"

He Wei nodded, "I do have that thought."

"Weiwei, that’s absolutely not possible. I want to marry you as soon as possible. Don’t you know how much I love you? We’ve finally managed to be together. What if something unexpected happens if we wait?

What if the family disagrees later?

Without you, I wouldn’t know how to go on."

Ji Feng looked deeply sincere.

For a moment, He Wei almost gave in, but she quickly regained her composure.

She wanted Ji Feng’s love to last forever, not just be a fleeting moment.

He Ming is correct. What if Ji Feng doesn't value our relationship if I marry him too easily?

She doesn't want to be apart from him.

Moreover, the family has already agreed to let her marry him a bit later. If she keeps causing trouble, she might end up with no dowry at all.

She wants Ji Feng to live a good life.

Ji Feng isn't someone who can handle hardship, and neither am I.

"Ji Feng, I'm doing this for both of us. My parents have agreed to let me marry you, and they won’t go back on their word. If there is any change, it will only be because you’ve changed your mind about us.

If you’re already thinking of changing your mind after such a short time, what does that say about our relationship?

If we just wait a bit longer, my parents can prepare more dowry for me.

I want to marry you so I can support you, not be a burden.

I know your family is doing well, but once we’re married, you’ll be on your own.

Ji Feng, I truly want to have a good life with you."

He Wei was so sincere, as if she wanted to lay her heart bare before him.

Ji Feng felt a momentary pang of emotion, but the next second, he remembered how He Huihui had cried sadly in front of him.

Even if He Wei was hurt, she could still live a good life without him.

But without him, Huihui wouldn’t be able to cope.

"Weiwei, I don't care about those things. If you're not willing to marry me now, it means you don't trust me. I will never forgive a woman who doesn't trust me, and I won't marry you.

Either marry me now, or let's just call it off."

Ji Feng looked at her, waiting for her to make a choice.

He Wei's face instantly turned pale. "Do you… do you really love me? Is this marriage because you truly love me? Ji Feng, I love you, but you..."

"He Wei, you’re not the only person I could be with." Ji Feng maintained this attitude, as he was confident that, like before, He Wei would eventually back down.

This time would be no exception!

Ji Feng was very confident.

However, this time, He Wei began to feel fear in her heart.

Before, whenever Ji Feng acted like this, she thought it was because of his pride. Ji Feng had a strong sense of pride, and her parents' attitude towards him was terrible. Because of her parents, he had distanced himself from her.

Later, when things between them were completely over, she was heartbroken and suffered because she firmly believed that Ji Feng loved her too.

But now…

Clearly, her parents have agreed to let her marry Ji Feng, and they even spoke to Ji Feng's family about it.

He shouldn't be like this anymore.

Moreover, what she proposed was for his own good.

Was he really rushing into marriage because he truly loved her?

He Wei asked herself for the first time.

Ji Feng also felt something was off. Why hadn't He Wei calmed him down yet?

He looked at He Wei, confused. "Wei Wei, what's going on?"

"Ji Feng, either we get married two months from now, or we break up. Let's just forget about it. What haven't I done for you? I've even fought with my family for you. Can't you wait just a little longer for me?"

"Do you really love me, or is there something else going on?"

For the first time, He Wei stood her ground against Ji Feng.

Ji Feng was dumbfounded. This didn't make sense.

"You're really leaving? He Wei, don't you dare regret this!" Ji Feng threatened her.

He Wei didn't respond, went straight back to her room, and as soon as she entered, she started crying.

He Huihui, who had been listening, was secretly pleased when she heard He Wei crying. Looks like Ji Feng had succeeded?

He Wei went straight back to her room and didn't talk to her family about the marriage as He Huihui had expected.

This left He Huihui confused.

She forgot all about helping with the vegetables and rushed into the room.

"Wei Wei, what's wrong? Didn't you and Ji Feng have a good talk?" He Huihui asked, confused.

He Wei looked at her. "We had a talk. Either he breaks up with me, or we get married in two months. I'm not compromising this time, and you don't need to tell me things I don't want to hear."

This... Why wasn't she following Ji Feng's wishes anymore?

"Wei Wei, what's going on? Is it because of what my brother said to you? He's a man, what does he know about feelings? Don't be impulsive!"

He Huihui started badmouthing He Ming.

He Wei became even more suspicious of He Huihui. Why was she so eager to get her married to Ji Feng as soon as possible?

"I know my brother better than you. You don't need to say anything. I've already made up my mind." He Wei didn't want to deal with her anymore. Just seeing He Huihui made her overthink.

Seeing this, He Huihui could only leave.

She hurried to find Ji Feng.

She needed to find out why the conversation had gone so wrong.
