Nian Junting quickly headed back home. Murong Cheng’s voice was heard once he drove into the backyard. “Look at yourself in the mirror before judging anyone else,” she said.
Nian Qingyun responded in an angry tone, “That was years ago. I know that I was wrong. Can’t you just let it go? You think I don’t know that last month, you had dinner with a man at The Cupola? You two looked quite close. Don’t you forget that we haven’t divorced yet.”
“Speaking of which, we’ve been separated for so many years. When will you sign that divorce agreement? You’d better sign it as quickly as possible, or don’t blame me for suing for divorce.”
Nian Junting walked in with big steps and said, “Alright, don’t fight here. You’re not young anymore. Aren’t you two ashamed?”
“Do I want to fight her?” said Nian Qingyun grumpily. “I came here for Nian Xi. I asked you to talk to her, and what did you say to her? Why are you on her side now? Your uncle and aunt Feng called me. They were anxious. I asked Ji Chuan about it, and he said that there is a misunderstanding between him and Nian Xi.”
Murong Cheng looked at Nian Qingyun in confusion.
Nian Junting made an easy guess. Nian Xi might not have told her parents all the details, as she was probably still trying to protect Ji Chuan. She didn’t want Murong Cheng to have a bone to pick with him.
“Why rush? Plenty of guys want to marry your daughter,” said Nian Junting blandly.
“That, I know. My daughter is surely an adorable girl. But, she has decided to cancel the wedding for no reason. How am I gonna explain that? The wedding is supposed to happen on the 8th of this month. We have booked the venue and ordered the wedding dress. Also, Ji Chuan is really a young and outstanding man. In the future, he will be in a higher position than I am…”
“For the venue and wedding dress, we can just consider the down payment wasted. If Nian Xi became unhappy after she married Ji Chuan, who would take responsibility for that?” Nian Junting interrupted his father. “I’m not saying that Ji Chuan isn’t good. They got engaged a long time ago, but after all, they never spent enough time together. Now, many problems have occurred, so it’s reasonable for Nian Xi to reconsider.”
“No couple is a perfect match. Every married couple needs to expend effort to make their marriage work.” Nian Qingyun disagreed. “We know Ji Chuan well…”
“I agree with Junting,” Murong Cheng nodded. “Why rush? To be honest, when he took the liberty to decide not to come back, I was already unhappy. I have only one precious little girl. She can do whatever she wants.”
“You… She has spent too much time with you. That’s why she has become like this.” Nian Qignyun was so angry. “What if she’s still unmarried by the time she’s 40?”
“I don’t care. I’m rich enough to let her stay single and free her whole life,” said Murong Cheng blandly. She then turned to Nian Junting and asked, “Ah, what happened between you and Luosang? Lan said that you two had a fight.”
“I’m glad to hear that. You should have broken up with her long ago,” said Nian Qingyun.
“Whatever her father has done, he’s a better man than you!” Murong Cheng was enraged. “I am telling you, I’ve already accepted that girl as my future daughter-in-law.”
“Did she enchant you?” said Nian Qingyun.
“Shut up!” Nian Junting suddenly kicked away the chair in front of him. “You don’t get to tell me who I want to marry. I’m telling you that I am now a lovelorn man. Would you like to fight? I’ve been angry for days and just don’t know how to channel it. Also, I’ll make the decision about Nian Xi’s wedding.” After saying that, he rushed upstairs wrathfully and slammed the door thunderously.
“I’m done talking to you. I’m leaving.” Murong Cheng picked up her bag and left.
Nian Qingyun paused for a second, then hurriedly followed behind her, saying, “Chengcheng, I’m not young anymore. Why don’t you come back? From now on, we’ll live a peaceful life together. I’ve only made that one mistake in my whole life. I promise that I won’t do anything like that ever again.”
