Chapter 48: Degradation
"Of course I'm doing this for your own good. Don't feel unhappy because of what I said. In my heart, no matter what choice you make, you will always be the best brother Wei Zan in the world..." Cen Shuang said these words in a row, feeling a little uneasy.
She was anxious and afraid.
Anxious Wei Zan never expressed his opinion and did not mention breaking off the engagement.
She was afraid of Wei Zan because she had just called him a loser in order to provoke him to break off the engagement...
Thinking of this, Cen Shuang could not help but carefully observe the changes in Wei Zan's expression. Seeing that he kept his brows furrowed and refused to show any extra emotions on his face, she could not help but become more anxious and afraid.
At this time, Wei Zan was thinking that he could not cancel this marriage.
Compared to being called a loser, this is nothing.
The important thing is to marry a hard-working wife like Cen Yan to help him take care of his crazy mother and his useless gambling father.
There are many young ladies in the nearby villages whose family backgrounds are richer than Cen Yan's, but none of them are the choice she wants.
Even if something really happened between Cen Yan and Ji Yunzhan, so what?
He doesn't care at all!
However, one thing is very important, that is, Cen Yan must not give birth to a bastard with Ji Yunzhan!
And this Ji Yunzhan, whose legs were broken and thrown into the Forbidden Forest...unexpectedly, it didn't take his life, but instead allowed him to survive!
But how could he succeed with Cen Yan?
Could it be that his leg injury has been healed?
Was it someone who was meddling and saved him?
Many speculations quickly arose in Wei Zan's mind.
It seems that he has to go to the Forbidden Forest to find out about Ji Yunzhan's situation!
If his leg injury really healed, then Cen Yan, just in case...
"Whether to cancel this marriage or not is not something I can decide immediately. After all, I have already paid the betrothal gift and your Cen family has already received the money. Unless Cen Yan can return it to me, it would be too much of a loss for me to cancel the engagement like this!" Wei Zan considered and did not say anything final about canceling the engagement. Instead, he left Cen Shuang some room for imagination. After all, what he was going to do next still required Cen Shuang's cooperation.
When Cen Shuang heard this, she immediately felt that the matter was a little bit precarious.
It is really difficult to ask my grandparents to take out the money they have put in their pockets!
But asking the second wife to return the betrothal gift...that is also impossible!
The second wife has always been poor, where would she get the money?
The best way is for her to marry Wei Zan instead of Cen Yan!
Yes, that's it!
This really is the best of both worlds!
Cen Shuang was very excited that she came up with such an idea.
"Brother Wei Zan, it suddenly occurred to me that, in fact, I don't have to cancel the engagement..." After all, she was still young, and Cen Shuang was somewhat shy when she talked about her marriage. She said vaguely with a shy face, "Maybe, it's okay for me to switch with Cen Yan..."
She felt that she had explained it clearly enough, and Wei Zan was so smart that he would definitely understand.
And Wei Zan did understand.
He glanced with disdain at Cen Shuang, who was shyly lowering her head and twisting her handkerchief awkwardly. When she looked up at him, he quickly shifted his gaze to a complex expression of guilt, emotion and other mixed emotions.
"Sister Cen, you are really a good girl...I am not worthy of you." He said with a heavy sigh.
"How could that be? You are the best man in the world..." Cen Shuang couldn't help but blush when she heard him praising her like this.
"Alas!" However, Wei Zan could only sigh heavily.
He didn't make any promises, but suddenly sighed again and said, "Sister Cen, can you do me a favor?"
"What help? Tell me what you want. As long as you ask, I will definitely help you!" Cen Shuang immediately said enthusiastically.
"I'll be waiting for you here at this time tomorrow. I'll give you something. Please add it to Cen Yan's rice and make sure she eats it, okay?" A vicious light flashed in Wei Zan's eyes, but his tone was gentle and filled with a hint of cautious pleading.
"Of course, no problem!" Cen Shuang didn't even ask what that thing was, but just agreed, "I told you, as long as it's you, I'll help you with anything!"
"Thank you very much." Wei Zan's eyes flashed, and he thanked her sincerely. He then made the excuse that he had urgent matters and had been delayed for a long time, and then said goodbye and left.
Cen Shuang didn't hear that he was complaining about her wasting too much of his time. She just thought with a girlish mind that he had something urgent to do, but he still delayed for so long just to talk to her...
It can be seen that he has his own thoughts in his heart.
Otherwise, how could a man like him be torn between her and Cen Yan?
Cen Yan was his fiancée, to whom he had already been engaged. He was a responsible man, and since they were engaged, he vowed to take care of her and treat her well for the rest of his life.
However, Cen Shuang was not Wei Zan's responsibility, but he felt embarrassed for her. This showed that he was sincere to her, and he was only sincere to Cen Yan to fulfill the engagement and promise, and he did not really like her at all!
After comforting herself in this way, Cen Shuang felt extremely satisfied.
She felt like she was a star-crossed couple. She and Wei Zan were clearly lovers who understood each other's feelings, but Cen Yan, that shameless bitch, stood in between them, preventing them from being able to be together. It was really despicable!
If Cen Shuang didn't mess up this marriage and replaced Cen Yan and married Wei Zan... then she wouldn't be named Cen!
Cen Yan didn't know that Cen Shuang already had such lofty ambitions.
But if she knew, she would only applaud Cen Shuang from the bottom of her heart, and hope that Cen Shuang would succeed in breaking up herself and Wei Zan and help her ruin this marriage!
The other side.
Wei Zan, who said he had something urgent to do, arrived at the entrance of the forbidden forest in the blink of an eye.
Maybe it was a coincidence, or maybe it was because people with old grudges always tend to meet each other on a narrow road...
Wei Zan had just arrived here and was wondering how to find Ji Yunzhan, when he saw Ji Yunzhan, wearing a blue-gray linen shorts and carrying a bow and arrow, walking out of the forbidden forest.
"Ji Yunzhan! You are still alive! What's more, you are still alive and well! You can actually survive in this man-eating forbidden forest!" Wei Zan blocked Ji Yunzhan's way, and seeing that he could walk without any obstacles, he stared at him with wary eyes.
"It's you." Ji Yunzhan sneered when he saw the person coming, "What are you doing here?"
"What? You had an affair with my fiancée and cheated on me. Shouldn't I ask you why you did this? Cen Yan's face was disfigured and she looked so ugly, yet you had the heart to do that to her. Aren't you afraid that you'll have nightmares after touching her?" Wei Zan wantonly belittled Cen Yan.
At this moment, how could he still have the deep affection and persistence that he had deliberately pretended in front of everyone before?
