Chapter 708 Leading by the Nose
When Ji Ziang said this, Fan Yumeng, who had been keeping her head down, suddenly raised her head: "Ji Ziang, how can you talk like that?"
"Why can't I? Do you really want to marry me? Do you think our family is a money printing factory? We have no money. If you want to marry me, then marry me. If not, we'll break up."
"How come you have no money? Your parents' supermarket is so big, how could they have no money? Besides, didn't you just win the prize? The prize money alone must be quite a lot, right? I think you just want to get something for nothing. You want to marry my daughter without spending a penny. No way." Father Fan glared at Ji Ziang.
This was too much. Li Xu and Zhang Kun's faces became extremely ugly.
The Fan family is blatantly plotting against their family.
Beside him, Ji Zixuan looked at Huang Weiwei with some concern.
When they got married, Huang Weiwei didn't ask for much dowry.
Although their family gave a lot, compared with Fan Yumeng's one million dowry and a house within the Second Ring Road, what Weiwei asked for was too little.
Therefore, Ji Zixuan was afraid that Huang Weiwei would feel uncomfortable.
As it turned out, Ji Zixuan was really overthinking it.
Huang Weiwei doesn't care about these things. Her parents-in-law have their own standards and will not let her and Zixuan down.
What's more, in the past few years since she got married, her in-laws have treated her no differently than Yuanyuan, and she is already very content.
Huang Weiwei reached out, held Ji Zixuan's hand, and silently comforted him.
Ji Ziang suppressed his anger and looked at Fan Yumeng again: "What do you mean by that?"
Fan Yumeng looked at him with tears in her eyes, and her voice choked as she spoke: "I might be pregnant."
What?
Ji Ziang was stunned. He stared at Fan Yumeng's face blankly, and then shifted his gaze to Fan Yumeng's belly.
Fan Yumeng held her stomach, tears finally falling, "So you say, do I want to marry you?"
Li Xu and Zhang Kun looked at each other, both of them were shocked.
Is Ji Ziang so fast?
"Zi'ang, you are busy with your career now, and it is very dangerous. But Yumeng likes you, and her father and I can only support her choice. We make so many requests just to ask you to prove that you will be good to Yumeng and responsible for the child. But now you are making excuses, how can we two hand our daughter to you with confidence? If you don't want to marry Yumeng, you can just say it directly. While the month is still young, it won't cause much harm to Yumeng's body." Fan Yumeng's mother said gently and firmly.
Li Xu sighed in her heart. Things had developed to this point, and she had no choice but to agree to any outrageous request.
If they don't agree, they will become the murderers of the baby in Fan Yumeng's belly.
Fan Yumeng's mother looks weak, but every word she says is sharp.
What's more, Tangtang is just Ziang's niece, but he likes her so much.
If it was his own child, how would he like it?
She had to keep this child for her son.
"Mother-in-law, there is no doubt that our Ziang wants to marry Yumeng. But our family really doesn't have that much money. How about this, we can give a dowry of one million and a car, but as for the house..."
Li Xu hesitated for a moment and continued, "Can I transfer the house under Ziang's name to Yumeng's name?"
When Ji Ziang heard this, the veins on his forehead twitched. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.
For the sake of his children, he had no choice but to agree to their conditions.
He didn't dare to gamble. What if Fan Yumeng was really willing to abort the child?
Since he has done it, he must be responsible for his behavior and for the child.
Fan Yumeng's parents looked at each other with unclear expressions.
After a moment, Fan Yumeng's father spoke up, "In that case, we are not the kind of unreasonable family. We know Ziang is busy, and it would not look good for Yumeng to get married with a big belly. So there is no need for an engagement ceremony. Let's get things done as soon as possible and then get married."
Li Xu forced a smile and said, "Okay, while Ziang is in China, let him take Yumeng to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow. Let's see how Yumeng is doing. If she's OK, we can hold the wedding as soon as possible."
Li Xu is not a fool. He can't always let the Fan family lead them by the nose.
Only Fan Yumeng herself knows whether she is pregnant or not.
What if the money and the house are given away, but Fan Yumeng is not pregnant at all, wouldn’t their family be the ones who are taken advantage of?
She was willing to pay for her grandson or granddaughter, but she was unwilling to do so simply for Fan Yumeng.
Before today, she had always had a good impression of Fan Yumeng.
But after today, even if Fan Yumeng and Ji Ziang got married, she would feel uncomfortable and would not be able to treat Fan Yumeng the same way she treated Weiwei.
It’s not that she felt sorry for the money, but Fan Yumeng’s attitude today made her feel disappointed.
If Fan Yumeng had said something for Ji Ziang today, she wouldn't have been so disappointed.
It can be seen that Fan Yumeng's mind is not on Ziang.
But who made the son make the mistake?
Having a child before getting married means you are being led by the nose, right?
Of course, if it is a family with bad intentions, the woman will be pregnant and let the man take advantage of her, and abortion will not harm the man's body anyway.
But Li Xu and Zhang Kun are not cruel people. Even though they know that the Fan family is using the child to control them, they still have to take the bait.
Fan Yumeng pursed her lips and nodded: "Then let's go tomorrow."
Ji Ziang didn't say anything. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, turned around and walked out without even eating.
Seeing this, Huang Weiwei pushed Ji Zixuan, signaling him to chase after him quickly.
Ji Ziang is very angry now, and it would be terrible if something happened.
Ji Zixuan gave Huang Weiwei a reassuring look and chased after her.
Li Xu and Zhang Kun had no appetite anymore and stood up to leave.
Huang Weiwei hurried forward and helped Li Xu.
Seeing this, Fan Yumeng's father asked politely, "All the dishes are served, don't you want to eat?"
Li Xu paused for a moment and said, "You guys eat. I'm feeling a little unwell. I won't keep you company any longer."
"That bill..." Fan Yumeng's father blurted out.
Fan Yumeng's mother quickly grabbed his arm.
Fan Yumeng's father stopped talking.
Huang Weiwei's expression also turned a little ugly. She whispered to Li Xu: "I'll go get married?"
Li Xu nodded, not wanting to continue arguing with them over such a small matter.
Huang Weiwei looked at the Fan family with a cold face: "You guys continue to eat, I'll go pay the bill."
After Li Xu and others left, Fan Yumeng's father breathed a sigh of relief.
Fan Yumeng's brother, who had been silent the whole time, asked uncertainly, "Now that we have offended their family, will my sister still have a good life after she gets married?"
