Chapter 45: It’s over, no matter what



"I have the final say on my own affairs. It's me who's getting married, not my parents. As long as I'm willing, it's all fine. I'll go back and tell them today, and then Brother Yunyan, you can come and propose."

Zheng Xinyue was extremely anxious and wished they could get the marriage certificate right away.

Zhou Yunyan felt proud when he saw her like this, but he didn't rush to answer. Instead, he asked tentatively, "Have you told your family about the betrothal gift? Our family advocates zero betrothal gift and doesn't engage in marriage transactions."

"I've already told my mom about it, and she's fine with it. My dad's a bit old-fashioned, but don't worry, I can convince him. I'll tell him when I get home tonight."

Zhou Yunyan nodded. "Anyway, I'm very optimistic about you and want to live with you, but if your family doesn't agree, I won't force you. We can look for other women when the time comes. Xinyue, you don't have to feel too burdened."

He looked considerate, but he didn't know that his words were a disguised alarm bell in Zheng Xinyue's ears.

"Don't worry, I can't be the boss of my family. To put it bluntly, he's not my biological father, so how can he control so many things?"

Zheng Xinyue was impatient and spoke without restraint, but Zhou Yunyan thought this was an advantage, as it would be easier for him to control her when she got married.

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news. If your family agrees, I'll bring some things to propose tomorrow."

Zheng Xinyue nodded, "Then I'll go back now and try to arrange things as soon as possible."

"Go back, silly girl."

Zhou Yunyan said this with a smile, reaching out and touching Zheng Xinyue's head.

At this moment, Zheng Xinyue felt that the air around her became sweet.

"good!"

Zheng Xinyue left happily. Gao Huilan looked at her leaving back and couldn't help but curl her lips.

"Son, do you really want to marry this silly girl? She seems to have no substance at all and is just stupid."

Gao Huilan spoke quite directly, probably because she thought Zheng Xinyue was not very smart.

Zhou Yunyan clicked his tongue and laughed.

"Who else should I marry if not her? Is there a better match? Zheng Xinyue is also fine. She comes from a good family and is a grown-up girl. The key is that she is easy to control. Since Zheng Wangshu dares to marry Zhou Jingchuan, then I will marry her sister."

Gao Huilan moved her lips and thought about it, and it made sense. At the moment, there was indeed no better lesbian than Zheng Xinyue.

Others all want a dowry and this and that, but only Zheng Xinyue is willing to pay for it herself.

"That's true. Then let's not look at anyone else. Let's just pick her. I'm just worried her dad won't agree. Zheng Jianjun is not someone you can fool."

"If it works out, marry her. If it doesn't, forget it. We won't suffer any loss anyway."

The mother and son looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

After Zheng Xinyue returned home, she cleared her throat and confronted Zheng Jianjun in the living room.

"Dad, I've decided. I want to marry Brother Yun Yan. He's agreed and is willing to marry me. I don't care whether you agree or not, but I've decided on this person. He'll come over to propose tomorrow. If you find him annoying, just let Mom handle it."

Zheng Xinyue's eyes were determined as if she wanted to join the party, and her expression clearly showed that she was determined to give it her all.

Zheng Jianjun couldn't understand why this seemingly intelligent girl was so confused about such a major life event. Wasn't her sister's teachings enough?

"Have you really thought about it? What if I say I disagree?"

Zheng Jianjun still wanted to make a final struggle. Although what she said hurt him, after all, he had been raised by her side for so long since he was a child, and he had feelings for her.

Zheng Wangshu suffered a loss in his marriage, and he didn't want Zheng Xinyue to fall into the same fire pit again.

"Even if you don't agree, I'm going to get married. Anyway, I want to get the marriage certificate with Brother Yun Yan. I can't just give up my good life."

Her words were very clear. If Zheng Jianjun disagreed, it meant that he didn't want her to live a good life.

Zheng Jianjun felt a chill in his heart and looked at Gu Meiqi who was standing beside him.

"What do you think?"

Gu Meiqin pursed her lips and said, "Let her do it."

"Okay, I'll take out what's due in advance. You can arrange anything that's missing. As for my relatives, don't call them all over. After all, I can't afford to lose face."

Zheng Jianjun also has a bad temper. If this kind of thing were to be made public, people would probably laugh their heads off.

"And you, let me be frank. If you're not happy in the future, don't expect your family to help you. This is your own choice, you can't blame anyone else. I've already said that Zhou Yunyan has character issues and is not someone you can trust with your life."

Zheng Xinyue couldn't listen at all. No matter what Zheng Jianjun said, it was all bullshit to her.

"Don't worry, I won't regret it. I believe I can live a good life. Whether a man is good or not depends on the kind of woman around him."

Zheng Xinyue spoke with mysterious confidence, raising her neck.

What else could Zheng Jianjun say? He just kept silent.

Gu Meiqi on the side also breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, the matter was resolved.

Even if Zheng Jianjun is unhappy now, it doesn't matter. Once his daughter gets married and their lives become more and more prosperous, Zheng Jianjun will know how capable his daughter is and will definitely not object anymore.

Zheng Xinyue fell asleep late that night. She was so happy thinking that she was about to become Zhou Yunyan's bride.

Zheng Xinyue couldn't sleep, and Zheng Wangshu was no exception. Although he slept in the next room out of spite, for some reason, he couldn't fall asleep after trying for a long time.

I wonder if Zhou Jingchuan and the two children are asleep? What are they doing?

The more I thought about it, the more upset I became. I simply stood up, half leaned against the pillow, and found a book to read.

After reading for a while, I finally felt sleepy, so I turned off the lights and prepared to go to bed.

I had just fallen asleep when I heard some rustling sound beside the bed. I didn't know what it was.

Zheng Wangshu was a light sleeper, so she woke up immediately. She quickly realized something: Could there be a mouse in the house? Or a weasel? Or maybe a snake...

She just felt that the hairs on her body were standing up. No matter which one it was, she was scared.

She stood up and turned on the light. At that moment, she suddenly saw a gray shadow scurry from her quilt to the ground. It looked like a big rat.

Zheng Wangshu didn't want to be so pretentious, but she was really scared. Even if a big bug jumped on her, she would do a breakdance.

Not to mention such a big gray mouse, which was on her quilt just now.

She had heard someone tell a story before about a drunk who fell asleep after drinking too much. When he woke up the next day, he found his feet had been eaten by rats, and there were holes all over them.

Every time she thought of this story, she felt very uncomfortable.

Zhou Jingchuan had just coaxed the two children to sleep, and he was also worried.

At this moment, Zheng Wangshu's scream was heard from the next room.

He jumped down almost immediately and quickly left the room.
