Chapter 330: Different Thoughts
“I didn’t know what was going on at first, but when I went to the restroom after the banquet, I saw two waiters gossiping, and then I figured it out.
They do this to prevent Michelle's relatives and friends from asking for money."
Yu Shui continued, “You may not know this, but in fact, the people sitting in the hall are basically the bride’s relatives, because they think Michelle married into a wealthy family, so there are a lot of relatives and friends who come to the wedding banquet.
But in fact, the men who had good relationships with them were eating in the private rooms. The dishes were completely different from those in the hall, with meat and vegetables, and the portions were very generous. I saw this when I walked outside the doors of those private rooms while the dishes were being served.
"Oh my god! I didn't expect it to be like this! Doesn't Michelle know?"
"Who knows? Maybe she was persuaded by the man's family, or she might be worried that her poor relatives might get close to her."
"Don't say that. If they are kept in the dark, it would be unfair for you to say that."
"No matter what she thinks, we have to pretend we don't know now that we know. The man's family kept it a secret, but we exposed it. If we end up with a mess that can't be resolved, it would be a big sin."
Everyone nodded, and then someone asked, "How do you think Michelle met her husband?"
Everyone shook their heads, because no one knew how they knew each other.
What everyone doesn’t know is that the week Michelle skipped work some time ago was when she went to pursue her current husband.
During that time, Michelle was under a lot of pressure at home.
She was urged to get married every day, and her parents arranged various blind dates for her.
Her parents wanted to find her a man with a simple family and lots of land, but she looked down on country folk, so she could only find a partner she liked.
She actually came to the company that day, but when she saw it was dark inside and there were only a few people there, she left.
Later, on the way home, I met my current husband.
A man was seriously injured and unconscious in a car accident due to weather conditions.
Later, Michelle called 911, reported the incident to the police, and then accompanied the man during surgery.
I took care of him for several days until he woke up.
Michelle was willing to pay so much because he drove a luxury car, was tall and handsome. She thought that even if she couldn't win him over, with his connections, he should be able to introduce her to a good boyfriend.
Therefore, Michelle's contribution is sincere.
Even after Cheng Jun woke up and contacted his parents, Michelle still stayed in the ward every day, willing to take care of his excrement and urine.
Cheng's father and mother were very moved by this. They wanted to compensate with money or material things, but Michelle refused.
She said: "Uncle and aunt, you are so busy with work, and you still have to take time out to take care of Chengjun. It's really hard.
My work is usually easy and I recently asked for leave from my boss, so it’s okay for me to stay and take care of Chengjun.
Besides, I would feel uneasy if I sent him to the hospital and didn’t see him recover and be discharged.”
Cheng's mother was unhappy. Although she was grateful to the other party for saving her son, she really despised the other party's attitude of throwing himself at her.
Cheng's father was very calm, because he knew his son was not a good person. He was lazy, greedy and philandering. He was just born with a good appearance, otherwise it would be hard to say whether he could get a wife in the future.
However, he could not expose his son's shortcomings, and even had to try his best to cover up his deficiencies, just to coax home a daughter-in-law who could control Cheng Jun in the future.
Although he was not very satisfied with Michelle as a person, Michelle's job was exactly what he wanted.
He is not as short-sighted as his wife, who always talks about marrying well and is obsessed with finding a rich girl.
He sensed a hint of crisis in his current stable life and was eager to find a stable or golden rice bowl for his son so that his son would have a way out if any unexpected events occurred in the future.
That's why he acquiesced to Michelle's excessive demands.
In this way, Cheng Jun gradually recovered after being taken care of by Michelle. Although he didn't like this woman very much, he didn't hate her either. On the contrary, he enjoyed the fact that someone was so considerate and caring.
Then, the two of them started dating.
After Michelle's family found out, they urged her to get married again. She was a little anxious, but Cheng Jun was unmoved.
Michelle was unwilling to give up, so the two tasted the forbidden fruit during a date without taking any precautions.
Afterwards, Cheng Jun only said that he would compensate her but did not mention getting a marriage certificate at all.
Michelle was sad and felt that she had made a wrong move, so she was very silent at work afterwards.
However, she still did not break off contact with Cheng Jun, but they didn't date and meet as frequently as before.
It was not until a long time later that Michelle found that she had not had her period. She rushed to the pharmacy in panic, bought a pregnancy test stick, and hid in the bathroom...
A few minutes later, Michelle came out of the bathroom with a pale face.
She didn't know whether she should be happy or sad.
There are two lines on the pregnancy test stick in my hand.
She didn't know whether the baby in her belly would be happily accepted by the Cheng family or would be ordered to be aborted?
She didn't even dare to tell her parents that she was pregnant, because her family didn't approve of her finding such a good man. Her family was always worried that Cheng Jun was a playboy and was just playing with her.
But Michelle was stubborn and had come to this point.
She locked herself in a dark room all night, and didn't figure it out until dawn. No matter what, try to fight for it first, and then make a choice if it doesn't work.
The next morning, Michelle went to the hospital for a check-up on an empty stomach, and then took the report to see Cheng's father.
She didn't go directly to Cheng Jun because she subconsciously felt that Cheng Jun would not let her give birth to the child. So she could only go to Cheng's father, the man with the most say in the Cheng family.
When Cheng's father saw the report, he was shocked at first, then he looked at Michelle with sharp eyes.
Seeing that she was not guilty at all, he believed that the baby in her belly was Cheng Jun's flesh and blood.
"Tell me, what do you want?" Cheng's father asked calmly.
Michelle didn't expect the other party to be so cold. She was a little scared. It seemed that the child might not be saved. However, she still expressed her thoughts.
"If your family is willing to accept me, then please let Chengjun marry me as soon as possible. If Chengjun or you and your wife disagree, then please compensate me with a sum of money and materials, and I will abort the child myself."
Michelle's words made Cheng's father look at her with a higher opinion of her.
There was no crying or making a fuss about marrying into the family. So, he was willing to give Michelle a chance.
"You go back first. I will discuss this with Chengjun and his mother and then give you an answer."
