Even she... she wouldn't marry such a scumbag!
Just as he was about to retort, he was stopped by Qiao Yaxiang's gaze.
Jian Jiaojiao pouted, feeling quite unhappy.
But he also understood his mother's intentions and knew that his father's mind was not something she could resolve with just a few words.
Now, she had no better choice but to reluctantly agree.
"It's up to Dad to decide."
Upon hearing this, Jian Mingpeng nodded in satisfaction.
"Dad, it's getting late, I'm going back to my room to rest." Jian Jiaojiao didn't want to stay here at all.
If she stays any longer, she might just blurt out what's on her mind.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Jian Mingpeng nodded.
Qiao Yaxiang watched her daughter's departing figure and knew that she was very unhappy.
Turning to Jian Mingpeng with a smile, she said, "Brother Ming, I'm going to check on my daughter. She's still young, and hearing this news all of a sudden might be hard for her to accept. I'll go and try to comfort her."
Upon hearing this, Jian Mingpeng nodded, recalling Jian Jiaojiao's earlier demeanor.
This big news was indeed a bit of a surprise to her.
Upon seeing this, Qiao Yaxiang went to Jian Jiaojiao's room.
When Qiao Yaxiang arrived at Jian Jiaojiao's room, she saw that the door was unlocked, so she pushed the door open and went in.
Jian Jiaojiao was looking unhappy when she saw Qiao Yaxiang walk in. She immediately said with great dissatisfaction, "Mom, how could you make me agree to this! You know I don't like Zhao Heng. The person I want to marry is Ye Mohan!"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yaxiang shushed her, then immediately closed the door and sat down next to Jian Jiaojiao.
"Jiaojiao, Mom knows what you're thinking. But you also know that Ye Mohan's eyes are only on that slut right now. If you keep delaying like this, what will become of us!"
"I don't care, I'm going to marry Ye Mohan! I told you before not to bring her back, I'd just marry her, but you wouldn't listen!" Jian Jiaojiao said angrily.
"Jiaojiao, back then, Old Master Ye clearly stated that he wanted that slut to marry into the family, otherwise, why would your father and I have let her come back?"
Besides, Ye Mohan's reputation was so bad back then, we were worried that if he discovered our double-dealing, he might take action against you. The Jian family couldn't do anything to the Ye family.
Qiao Yaxiang patiently explained, hoping her daughter would heed her good advice.
Upon hearing this, Jian Jiaojiao knew that Qiao Yaxiang was telling the truth, but she just couldn't get over it.
Qiao Yaxiang continued, "Besides, there's nothing wrong with you marrying into the Zhao family. Although the Zhao family can't compare to the Ye family, they are still considered a second-rate family in the capital. Compared to our Jian family, their family has a much deeper foundation."
If Zhao Heng is capable, who can say whether the Zhao family will rise to the top of the elite families under his leadership in a few decades?
Moreover, his family only has one son, Zhao Heng, and in twenty years, the Zhao family will be yours, and everything in the Zhao family will belong to you.
"As long as you can control Zhao Heng, what trouble do you have?"
After hearing Qiao Yaxiang's words, Jian Jiaojiao seemed to soften her stance.
She hadn't thought about it that much before, but after her mother's analysis, she suddenly understood.
It seems like this is a good option.
Qiao Yaxiang looked at Jian Jiaojiao's expression. As a mother, she understood her daughter's thoughts very well, and continued.
"Trust your mother. She won't hurt you. She's been through this before and has more experience than you."
It's better to choose a man you can control than a hopeless or uncontrollable one.
That way, your life will be easier in the future. If you can only give birth to one or two children, your position will be secure.
"Mom suffered because of this. If I had given your father a son, the Jian family would have been mine long ago."
At this point, Qiao Yaxiang's face darkened.
Jian Jiaojiao knew immediately that her mother was sad again. She knew that her mother had suffered a severe hemorrhage after giving birth to her, which had damaged her health and made it difficult for her to conceive again.
Seeing this, Jian Jiaojiao quickly comforted her, "Mom, it's okay. You have me. I will take care of you in your old age and see you off when you die."
Actually, she didn't want to have a younger brother.
She knew very well that with her younger brother, everything in the Jian family would have nothing to do with her anymore; it would all belong to her brother.
However, she had no intention of telling Qiao Yaxiang what was on her mind.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yaxiang's eyes welled up with tears. "Mom knows, my good daughter."
“I agree with the Zhao family's matter. You can talk to Dad about it later.” Jian Jiaojiao was very sensible.
Although she still couldn't let go of Ye Mohan, she knew that given the current situation, she could only force herself to endure it.
Besides, Zhao Heng was indeed very pleasing to her in some ways, and she was completely captivated by him.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yaxiang nodded excitedly.
After returning to their room that night, Qiao Yaxiang and Jian Mingpeng had a very enjoyable time together. Afterwards, Qiao Yaxiang relayed Jian Jiaojiao's words to Jian Mingpeng.
Jian Mingpeng was very happy.
The plan had taken another step forward, and he was in an exceptionally good mood.
Even when treating Qiao Yaxiang, he became much gentler.
The passionate escapades in the room continued well into the night.
The next morning, Jian Mingpeng informed the Zhao family.
Although Zhao Heng was very reluctant, he did not refuse.
He doesn't want anyone to know his current physical condition, otherwise his position will be in jeopardy.
He was also familiar with Jian Jiaojiao.
He was more willing to let her into the family than to let anyone else in.
Soon, the two families met, and since both sides were very satisfied, they quickly set a date for the engagement.
...
Inside the castle.
Jian Yixue had just finished eating when she received a phone call.
“Miss Yue, I may not be able to complete this task. Zhao Heng is getting engaged to Jian Jiaojiao, the eldest daughter of the Jian family. It is said that their parents have already met and the marriage has been arranged.” Wu Xiao said anxiously.
"Oh?" Jian Yixue raised an eyebrow.
It's unexpected that these two ended up together in this life. It seems her rebirth has changed the future of many people.
"Interesting?" Jian Yixue's expression turned cold, and a cold smile curled at the corner of her lips.
Wu Xiao, "What?"
"It's nothing," Jian Yixue said, snapping out of her reverie. "How are things between you and Zhao Heng these days?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Xiao told Jian Yixue everything about her recent experiences.
During this time, she was essentially under house arrest by Zhao Heng. She was not allowed to go out alone, and Zhao Heng even arranged for three people to stay in the apartment so that someone would follow her whenever she went out.
She suggested to Zhao Heng countless times that he marry her, but he made all sorts of excuses, and now he can't even see her.
She didn't know what to do.
After listening, Jian Yixue raised an eyebrow. "It seems he wants you to have the child, but he doesn't intend to marry you."
Upon hearing this, Wu Xiao's expression changed.
During this period, given Zhao Heng's attitude towards her, she hadn't been unaware of this possibility.
