Chapter 337 To Hide It From Howard
The Wei family is wealthy, so raising another child would be a piece of cake. They kept this a secret from the outside world, but people in their circle aren't stupid, and they all had their doubts. So some people privately spread rumors that Wei Lele was actually Wei Min's son.
This was the truth, and the Wei family couldn't easily explain it.
However, Wei Min's marriage was thus delayed.
Even if Wei Min had a child, she would still have registered the child under her mother's name, so she wouldn't have been unable to get married.
When she gave birth to Wei Lele, she suffered severe bleeding and had a difficult labor. The hospital immediately determined that she would never be able to have children again. Even if her family was well-off, who would marry a woman who couldn't have children? Besides, the men that Wei Min's parents introduced to her were all wealthy.
Therefore, Wei Min was so worried about her marriage that her hair turned white. She had no choice but to find a partner herself, and one who didn't know her at all.
Finally, she met Howard, and naturally, she kept her past a secret.
Because Wei Lele was sick, Wei Min had to change her plans and quickly take him back. She told Huo Hua about it, and Huo Hua understood.
When they arrived at the Wei family home, Wei's mother saw that Wei Lele was covered in bruises and felt sorry for him: "Why did you bring him so far away?"
Wei Min said helplessly, "What can I do? He insists on going with me."
Mother Wei snorted: "If you really marry that man, what if Lele gets bullied?"
Wei Min paused for a moment, then said, "Lele is my younger brother. Even if I get married, Ahua wouldn't bully a child. You're overthinking it. Besides, can't you take care of Lele?"
Mother Wei said, "You mean after you get married, you'll ignore Lele and leave him to us to take care of? What are you thinking? He's your son. We're getting old. Can we take care of him for the rest of our lives? His future depends on you."
Wei Min understood this principle. She loved Wei Lele very much and of course wouldn't abandon him, but now was the time for her to get married, and she couldn't let Wei Lele ruin her plans.
"If you ask me, you should just tell Howard about this. Don't hide it from him. If he can accept it, then accept it; if he can't, then forget it. Otherwise, things will get complicated if he finds out later."
“No, we can’t tell him, he’ll definitely mind,” Wei Min said.
She went to such lengths to keep it from Howard because she intended not to tell him.
She had to be perfect in Howard's presence.
Wei Min had a very bad experience. She dated a conman who was an idle gambler who pretended to be a successful businessman and talked to Wei Min about cooperation.
Gradually, after the two became familiar with each other, the man began to pursue her relentlessly. Wei Min was young at the time, so she agreed to date him. At first, their relationship was very good, and they even reached the point of getting married. The man then tried every means to have sex with her.
Wei Min initially refused, but considering that the two were going to get married anyway, she agreed. However, after she became pregnant, she found out that the man owed her 50,000 yuan. In a time when having 10,000 yuan was considered a great fortune, 50,000 yuan was a huge sum.
She then realized she had been scammed, but the other party threatened her, saying that if she refused to return the money, he would expose her.
He pressured Wei Min to pay him back a lot of money over time. When she helped him pay back another 30,000 yuan, she was completely broke and insisted on breaking up with him.
The man was being relentlessly pursued by debt collectors, so he quickly left. She thought she had gotten rid of him, but she heard that he had recently returned. However, she had no connection with him anymore, and where he was was none of her business.
This experience is a dark chapter in her life, one she will always keep hidden and will never let anyone else know.
She would keep it from Howard until she could no longer hide it.
After Wei Min left, Huo Hua did not leave. He came to see Huo Chunyan every day and chatted with her, but his mind seemed to have wandered away. Even though he was physically there, his heart was not.
Mrs. Huo was furious and said, "If you're thinking about Wei Min, then go find her. Don't get in my way here."
Howard's eyes lit up, then dimmed again: "Mom, does that mean you've agreed to let us be together?"
Mrs. Huo sneered, "If I don't agree, will you listen to me?"
Howard said, "Mom."
Huo's mother said, "I can see that you are someone who has your own ideas. I can't interfere in your affairs. If you really want to marry her, then I won't care anymore."
Howard looked at her. He wanted to marry Wei Min, after all, he felt that Wei Min was the most beautiful person he had ever met, and he simply couldn't refuse her.
He had always refused blind dates, feeling that he couldn't just marry anyone. He needed to find a feeling, a feeling of love, and now he felt he had found it.
Even for the sake of love, he didn't want to fall out of love with Huo's mother because of this; Huo's mother's blessing was very important to him.
Looking at him, Huo's mother said earnestly, "Actually, I wanted you to choose a simple girl to marry and live a peaceful life, but since you've taken a liking to someone like this..."
She paused for a moment and said, "If she is sincere to you, that's good. If she is not, I'm afraid that after you get married, it will end in tragedy again. She came to see me before she left. She said she wouldn't let you marry into her family. That girl is smart and knows my concerns. Anyway, it's your life after this, it has nothing to do with me. As long as you can live well together, that's fine."
This sentence means that he/she agrees.
Howard nodded and said happily, "Mom, don't worry, I made the right choice this time."
Mrs. Huo hummed in agreement, but her eyes still held worry.
She always felt that the girl's experiences and family background were very complicated. When it comes to life, who you live with makes all the difference. It's not that easy.
I hope Howard will have a smooth journey.
Howard seemed to be in a good mood after that, and he stayed there for a few more days before finally leaving in a hurry.
Huo Chunyan said with regret, "I was hoping my brother could stay here a few more days. How could he just leave like this?"
Mrs. Huo said, "Isn't it just to go find someone?"
Huo Chunyan said knowingly, "That sister-in-law is also quite remarkable. For my brother to like her so much, she must have some extraordinary qualities."
Mrs. Huo spat, "His ex-wife was such a scumbag, but he still liked her a lot, didn't he? His personality makes it easy for him to fall in love with someone."
Huo Chunyan: "..."
That's not entirely true. The people Howard went on blind dates with back then weren't people he liked; he still had requirements.
Mrs. Huo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I feel like he has a natural tendency to attract bad girls. He just likes girls with complicated personalities. Never mind, let's not talk about him anymore. I just hope Wei Min isn't as bad as I think."
