Chang Pengfei dared not have such a wish; he followed Tang Xianfang's ideas in everything he did.
Tang Xianfang had absolutely no desire to have anything to do with Chang Pengfei. She hated that bastard so much that she could never agree to marry him!
Even if Chang Pengfei goes to prison, she will not agree to marry him.
Chang Rihui glanced at Tang Xianfang, who was expressionless, then pushed Chang Pengfei against the wall and yelled, "Are you crazy? If you don't get married, do you want to go to jail?!"
"I..." Chang Pengfei wanted to explain, but Chang Rihui had no intention of going and continued to vent his anger.
Chang Rihui: "Fine, you go to jail, and then your whole family will be implicated. Huaying is waiting to graduate from university and become a teacher. With a relative like you, she might be tricked by villains when it comes to job assignments. And what about Mom and Dad's workplaces? If there are any new policies in the future, and they miss out because of this stain on their record, I will haunt you even after I die!"
Chang Pengfei turned pale upon hearing this. He hadn't thought that much about it. He accepted the punishment for his mistake, but if it implicated his family, he would have to be careful in making his decision.
Chang Rihui continued to escalate the situation: "This isn't over yet, Shuying, Meiying."
"Shuying has extremely high attainments in painting. She is destined to be a great painter in the future, and she has a brother like you!"
“Mei Ying is just a young child, not mature enough. If he gets hurt by gossip because he has a brother like you, can you take responsibility for that?”
Chang Pengfei felt a chill run down his spine and was speechless at the thought of the consequences.
He'd better not go to jail if he can avoid it!
He looked at Tang Xianfang pleadingly, but Tang Xianfang coldly looked away.
They deserved to have come to this point.
She could never agree to the marriage. If her father insisted, Chang Pengfei would have no choice but to go to jail!
"Xianfang!" Tang's father patted her arm with a look of surprise and delight: "You must marry him!"
"I don't want to!" Tang Xianfang immediately objected.
Tang's father pinched her hard: "How dare you!"
Then he threatened, "You want to get out of this house?"
How could you do this!
Tang Xianfang felt a pang of pain in her heart. Holding back her tears, she asked, "Dad, did you do all this for me?"
Tang's father grinned menacingly: "Are you out of your mind? Marrying into the Chang family would be good for you and for our family. Chang Pengfei's brother is about to go abroad to study, and so many people are eager to get in touch with him. You've ruined my plans, so just you wait and see!"
Tang Xianfang burst into tears: "Other people's parents aren't like this..."
Tang Xianfang didn't want to stay in this wretched place for even a second longer. She was willing to go out and suffer all kinds of hardships.
Seeing that Tang Xianfang was about to escape, her father reached out and grabbed her: "You're running? Where can you run to!"
"Tang Xianfang, are you not going to get married in the future? You're going to get married anyway, so it doesn't matter who you marry. He's still the father of your child. Can you really bear to abort the child in your belly? That's a life."
Tang Xianfang shook off his hand, abandoning the idea of running away again.
Tang Xianfang, suppressing her disgust, asked him, "If I agree to marry you, what can you give me?"
She needed a lot of money; she wanted to buy her own house. She hated this family where everyone was scheming against each other!
Tang's father's eyes lit up, and he quickly replied, "Didn't you want to buy a house? As long as you're willing to get married, I'll give you a house as part of your dowry!"
Tang Xianfang immediately said the name of Chang Huaying's apartment complex: "I want an apartment there!"
Mr. Tang smiled, his eyes crinkling: "As long as you agree, one house is nothing, two are no problem!"
Tang Xianfang smiled expressionlessly. Two houses weren't out of the question; she would buy them when she had the money.
Chang Rihui and Tang's father each persuaded the parties involved, exchanged a glance, and the matter was resolved.
Tang's father laughed and said, "Rihui, it's settled then. Go back and have your parents come to propose marriage!"
Chang Pengfei, who was still unaware of Tang Xianfang's thoughts, was taken aback and stared blankly at her. Why did she suddenly change her mind?
Tang Xianfang lowered her head as if trying to escape, silently clutching the hem of her clothes.
Chang Pengfei still felt that he could not accept this result.
He couldn't help but reach out to Chang Rihui, who was about to agree, and whispered, "Rihui, is this really the decision? I think we should inform Mom and Dad before making a final decision!"
Chang Rihui gave his mentally challenged brother a deep look. What could informing their parents change?
In the end, it all came down to marriage. In short, my parents didn't want my second brother to go to jail, but he did get a mixed beating from both men and women during the process.
Chang Rihui affirmed, "Your parents think the same way I do, you just need to listen to me!"
...
Chang Pengfei paused for a moment, making a final attempt: "Why don't you ask me what I think again?"
Chang Rihui looked away from him, disdainfully saying, "Your opinion is not important in this matter!"
...
Chang Pengfei said awkwardly, "Okay... alright!"
Chang Rihui and Tang's father arranged a time for the parents to meet. Tang's father smiled and went out to announce the good news.
Chang Rihui then turned his head and whispered in Chang Pengfei's ear, "Don't cause any more trouble for the family. This marriage must go through! After the marriage, you and Tang Xianfang can stay together or separate as you please. But if you go to jail because of this and implicate the whole family, just you wait and see!"
...
Chang Pengfei: What about his younger brother who was just giving him kind advice?
Chang Pengfei sighed and nodded silently: "I will listen to everything you say. I won't implicate my family!"
Chang Rihui nodded and said confidently, "It seems that Tang Xianfang despises you, but she agreed to marry you, so she must have her own plans. You two are only together for short-term interests, and your relationship won't last long. Don't treat this marriage as a burden!"
"If things don't work out and you get a divorce, go abroad for a few years and come back. I believe that people's attitudes toward this kind of thing will only become more open in the future!"
Chang Pengfei nodded in agreement. This was indeed his good younger brother!
Chang Pengfei's gloom vanished, and he said happily, "Maybe Tang Xianfang will ask me for a divorce next year. I'll leave with nothing and compensate her with everything in the house. Then I won't owe her anything!"
...
This time, Chang Rihui was speechless. His second brother was too heartless, leaving with nothing.
With the market opening up in recent years, it's been so easy to make money. My second brother managed to save some money by luck, but now he really doesn't value money anymore. He'll be eating dirt in the future!
Chang Rihui sighed. Last year, his second brother and Wu Minjun were discussing marriage and had a huge fight over buying a house for their wedding. Now, however, his brother has the audacity to say that he will leave with nothing. Fate is playing tricks on people.
