1694 Malicious Intentions
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed. Just as Xia Mingcheng thought, this woman, Yuan Yuan, contacted him almost every day. She came to the hospital from time to time and asked after his well-being. If he hadn’t been mentally prepared and had already arranged things so that his family would be vigilant against this woman, he really would have been worried that his parents would reveal something.
In short, just in case, Xia Mingcheng did his best not to let this woman get close to his parents.
Since he had promised Master Chi, however, he could only suppress his disgust and put on an act with the woman. Who knew if he was a talented actor, but in just a few days, this woman didn’t doubt him at all and thought that he was moved by her sincerity.
Xia Mingcheng made up his mind to endure it for a few more days, then pretend to be moved and give the bracelet to the other party. It would be so gradual that the other party most likely wouldn’t think much of it.
Yuan Yuan really didn’t think much of it. She could also feel that Mingcheng was treating her differently. Although Mingcheng’s attitude toward her was still cold at first, he now seemed to gradually not reject her advances, and even spoke more to her sometimes. Yuan Yuan was very happy in her heart. She firmly believed that he was gradually accepting her. As long as she continued to approach him step by step, Mingcheng would definitely forget that b*tch, Yan Liling, and accept her.
Thinking this, Yuan Yuan was overjoyed. She had been in a very good mood these past few days. She was about to work harder to make soup and go to the hospital again, when her phone screen flashed and then rang with a call. Impatience flashed in Yuan Yuan’s eyes. When she saw who the caller was, however, she immediately picked up.
Speaking of which, the other party could be considered an acquaintance. Yuan Yuan had done a marriage fate reading for her before. The other party’s identity was a little special, and her family background was similar to the Xia family’s. More importantly, the other party was on good terms with Mother Xia and the two of them could be considered best friends. Yuan Yuan felt that the other party would be useful in helping her to marry into the Xia family, so she mustered up some patience and said gently, “Aunt Ni, hello!”
Immediately, there was the sound of weeping on the other end. After a while, Yuan Yuan suppressed her impatience and asked gently and in concern, “Aunt Ni, what’s wrong? If there’s anything I can help you with, just tell me.”
Hearing Yuan Yuan’s words, Aunt Ni stopped crying, but her voice was still a bit choked up. Thinking of official business, she immediately said, “Master Yuan, you said before that my son and his girlfriend’s birth characters aren’t compatible. Is there any way to resolve this? Master Yuan, I beg you, no matter how much it costs, my Ni family can afford it! Those two children get along so well. I can’t bear to separate them. Can you think of a way to resolve this?”
Aunt Ni was usually a sensible person. She really wasn’t unhappy with her son’s girlfriend to begin with. The two children came from good families and had a particularly good relationship. They could also be considered childhood sweethearts. When they were young, the parents of both sides had tacitly agreed that the two children would be together, and they would wait until they were old enough to register their marriage.
Aunt Ni had asked Master Yuan to take a look at the physiognomies of the two children in order to set a good wedding date for them. She thought that they were a match made in heaven, but who would have thought that Master Yuan would actually say that the two children’s birth characters weren’t compatible, and that the girl would even jinx her son?
Aunt Ni had known Master Yuan for a while and could see that she was indeed capable. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have trusted her so much. At first, she really wanted to break up the couple and separate the two children, afraid that something would happen to her son.
But ever since she didn’t agree to the two children’s marriage, her son had been angry with her and never returned home. She had originally wanted to keep her son safe, but who would have thought that she would end up in a difficult position?
In fact, she had planned to relent and let the two children continue to be together; moreover, she found out yesterday that the girl was pregnant with the Ni family’s grandchild. She felt very conflicted and couldn’t bear to break up the couple. At the thought of the Ni family’s precious grandchild in the girl’s stomach, she couldn’t bear to make her get an abortion.
She was also extremely worried now. She just wanted Master Yuan to help resolve the matter. It didn’t matter how much money it cost. She just wanted her precious grandchild to be fine.
Yuan Yuan’s eyes turned a little gloomy after she listened to Aunt Ni’s explanation, especially when she heard the other party mention that the couple had a very good relationship. It was only when she thought of how Xia Mingcheng had been treating her well these past few days that the gloom on her face faded a little. It was just that she inexplicably hated couples who had a very good relationship and felt that they really loved each other.
Back then, those bystanders had often said that it was true love between Xia Mingcheng and Yan Liling. Yuan Yuan spat. At the thought of how Yan Liling, that b*tch, was deader than dead, and only Yuan Yuan was by Mingcheng’s side now, and he might accept her soon, Yuan Yuan felt a little better.
She didn’t hesitate and said coldly, “If she really is with child, it’s best to abort it. I’ve said before that the birth characters of that woman and Aunt Ni’s son don’t match. If they really force themselves to be together, not only will this jinx your son, your Ni family might also be jinxed. It’s best if your Ni family lets go of that child and persuade that woman to go to the hospital for an abortion as soon as possible. Apart from that, there is no other way!”
Yuan Yuan’s tone was hard, and Aunt Ni was horrified. She stuttered and asked again, “Master… Master Yuan, that child… my precious grandchild… We really… really have to get an abortion?”
“I’ll say it again: That woman will jinx your son. If that woman really gives birth, the child will also jinx your son and your Ni family. Aunt Ni, take care of yourself and think about it. Besides, your son is young now. How many other children can he have in the future? You should hurry and persuade your son to take that woman to get an abortion so that there is a clean break between the two of them.”
