“No matter whether you can do it or not, you can’t do something like drugging him. Just because you love Nanheng doesn’t mean he must accept your love!” Grandmother Feng stroked her husband’s chest, turning her head back and reprimanded Feng Mingzhu with both anger and concern, “You have always been mean to your sister since you were a kid. Even when we burned some paper money for her at some festivals, you would be angry and smash things in your room. We are all used to it, but what you said now really disappoints us!”
“Haha.” Feng Mingzhu sneered. “Do you really think Li Nanheng takes the Feng family seriously? I just gave him a cup of medicine and he ruined my reputation this way. Has he ever considered your feelings and the reputation of the Feng family and the Li family?”
“Miss Feng.” The Second Elder of the Li family frowned. “You started everything, so it’s unfair for you to put the blame on Nanheng. We all saw the whole process. Although Nanheng didn’t show you any mercy, you did shameless things first. Everyone has a bottom line. Anyone will be angry when he gets drugged. Nanheng just responded in kind. He didn’t take the initiative. You keep complaining that we do not forgive you, but have you ever reflected on yourself? Don’t tell us that you called us over just to listen to you complaining that Nanheng didn’t show mercy to you?”
Feng Mingzhu was struck dumb by what the Second Elder said and her face blushed.
Li Nanheng coldly smiled.
The biggest mistake Feng Mingzhu made was to call over the elders of the Li family.
What they cared about most was the reputation of the Li family. Whoever wanted to damage it was their enemy.
If the Li family was in the wrong in this matter, they could only swallow their pride and apologize, but the truth was that Feng Mingzhu slandered him and even tried to force him with her own life. She drove herself into a corner.
That was really a stupid move of her.
Obviously, she had figured out her current situation. Instead of yelling indignantly, Feng Mingzhu said sadly with a pale face, “So Nanheng can represent the Li family now? From the very beginning, he didn’t take our Feng family seriously. It was just because of the agreement of the two families that he wanted to pretend to be a gentleman who kept his words, so he reluctantly married my sister, but in fact, he disliked this marriage in his heart. I guess he already has a woman he loves, so he can’t wait to end this relationship with the Feng family. Now the three-year agreement has expired. Li Nanheng, you hurried back not just because of me. More importantly, you want to sever the marriage relationship with the Feng family, right? You want the Feng family to set you free so that you can stay with the woman you like!”
Grandfather Li, who was sitting in a wheelchair without a word for a long time, suddenly said: “I always thought that Mingzhu was a good girl. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen…”
Hearing his words, everyone fell silent in an instant, and Feng Mingzhu also looked at him with red eyes.
Grandfather Li said coldly, “In this case, the three-year agreement has expired and Mingzhu has also made this matter to this point. Then after midnight yesterday, the marriage of Nanheng and the Second Lady of the Feng Family can end. Now I agree to end this relationship. What do you think, Brother Feng?”
When Mr. Li said this, his tone was very cold. Obviously, he was very angry. It was only because of the friendship of the two families that he did not say anything too harsh, but his meaning was already very clear. He wanted to end this marriage and put an end to this farce.
Grandfather Feng hadn’t spoken yet, but Feng Mingzhu sneered. “You see? There you go. The Li family didn’t welcome my dead sister from the beginning, but you insisted on marrying her to Li Nanheng. How ridiculous… they never took her seriously…”
Just when the old people present frowned because of her words, Li Nanheng said, “It is true that there is no relationship between Miss Feng and me. Now that you’ve seen what happened in T City last night, I won’t explain anymore about it, but I hope Grandfather Feng and Grandmother Feng instruct your granddaughter better and teach her not to take anything she likes as her own. I’ve never been interested in her. As for what happened last night, I just beat her in her own game. She deserves it. After today, even if she commits suicide again, it has nothing to do with the Li family.”
Li Nanheng rarely said so much. Rebellious as he was, he didn’t seem to have the intention of breaking up with the Feng family. Instead, he sounded polite, reasonable, and somewhat respectful. Obviously, he had something important to say, so no one interrupted him.
“Besides, Miss Feng is wrong on one thing. Because of what she did, my grandfather said he wanted to end the marriage, but I think the Feng family should be aware of how sincerely we treat the Second Lady. The Li family had put the Second Lady’s spirit tablet in our ancestral hall early on, which meant that we had taken her as a family member, “Li Nanheng said lightly. “Today’s matter is just an episode that happened because of Miss Feng Mingzhu’s mistake. There is no need to make a fuss about it. In order not to affect the relationship between the two families, I am willing to maintain the marriage relationship with the Second Lady, and to show my sincerity, I promise I will never marry another woman in my life.”
Never marry another woman for life?
Everyone was shocked by Li Nanheng’s words that sounded so serious. Grandfather Feng and Grandmother Feng were instantly relieved but still looked at him in disbelief.
The faces of the elders of the Li family all turned black at this time, and Grandfather Li shouted angrily, “Nanheng, what do you mean? Although we truly took the Second Lady as our granddaughter-in-law, the agreement has expired. Why did you say you would never marry another woman during your life…”
Being slapped in the face over and over again, Feng Mingzhu was also stunned. At this moment, she was standing still in disbelief, thinking she had heard it wrong.
“Nanheng, you…” Grandfather Feng stood up. “Even if you take back what you just said, we won’t mind. After all, this time the Feng family is in the wrong…”
“I mean what I said,” Li Nanheng said. “Every word I said has been carefully thought out. and I will not take back a word.”
