Because I simply love you Chapter 111: Unfair

Chapter 111: Unfair

The entire conversation that happened on their wedding night forced Huian to remember what she had agreed upon. The promise she gave to Jinhai.
“I think you remember now.”, Jinhai said. “I hope we never talk about this again.”, he started to leave.
“No!!!”
He stopped.
“Jinhai, you cannot do this to me! I thought that you needed some time. I figured that after a while you will slowly accept me. And then the promise won’t matter.”, she cried loudly.
Her cry alerted the whole villa. Everybody came to check.
Jing also returned completing his university formalities when he heard a commotion.
“Huian? What happened? Why are you crying?”, Mother Liu asked worriedly.
The Xiang’s also came today to talk to Huian about what they discussed the other day with Liu Hai.
“Dear, tell me. Stop crying. Did you have a fight with Jinhai?”, Grandma Liu asked.
Mother and Father Xiang hurriedly went to her.
“Tell us what is the problem. We will figure it out.”, Father Xiang patted her.
“Big brother?”, Jing called out.
Jinhai looked at him but said nothing.
“Mom…”, Huian sobbed and hugged her, “I-I just talked to Jinhai about having a child. I wish to become a mother now. But, he said he doesn’t want to have one. Ever.”
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Liu Hai and Jing were not.
Jinhai simply stared at Huian expressionlessly. She felt scared of the way he looked at her; like he was looking at a complete stranger.
“What…?”, Xiang Qingge was shocked.
Liu Chunhua asked, “Jinhai, is this true?”
He said nothing.
Jing got angry. “Yeah, so what!? If big brother doesn’t want a child, will you force him to have one?”
“Jing!”, Grandma Liu shouted, “Don’t talk nonsense. They are married. What is wrong to have a child? In fact, this is a good time to seriously start thinking about it.”
“But if big brother is not happy, then what is the point!?”
“If he is not happy having a child, then Huian is not happy either not having one!”
“Oh please!”, Jing glared at Huian with utter hate and disgust, “Huian should be already happy having him as a husband. What more can she ask for!? Especially when you Grandma, forced big brother to marry her when you had got that heart attack two years back.”
They both froze.
Everyone was stunned.
The Xiang’s said in disbelief, “What are you saying?”
They always thought that they were happily married.
Jing sneered, “Of course. Did you and Grandma think that I was a fool? Everybody knows that big brother was never interested in Huian. She confessed so many times but he had always rejected her. So then how did one day you both suddenly declared that you are married? It was around the same time when Grandma was hospitalized.”
“That is not true!”, Huian screamed.
“Heh! Your trembling and shaking is giving you away. It is so obvious. Don’t you think it’s odd that a man who wasn’t interested in a woman his whole life would suddenly have their marriage certificates in his hands?”
“It isn’t like what you are implying!”, Grandma Liu raised her voice. “I merely gave a suggestion. What was wrong with that? I had always liked Huian for him and thought that he couldn’t get a girl better than her.”
He snorted.
“And this is not the matter here.”, she looked at Jinhai and said, “Jinhai. Why don’t you want to have a child? A marriage is incomplete without it. How will the Liu family get an heir? Do you want Huian to remain childless forever? How can you be so cruel?”
Jinhai coldly gazed at Huian.
She bit her lips hard. She couldn’t look him in the eye. She knew she was wrong twisting the promise to suit her own wishes. Now everybody thinks that Jinhai is being unfair.
Liu Hai interrupted, “Mom. I understand Huian’s concern. But if Jinhai is not happy, then how will he make his child happy? I don’t want him to hate his own child.”
The Xiang’s had no idea whose side to take. On one side they were a little convinced of Jing’s logic. And if that was the case, they don’t want Huian to stay in a loveless marriage and sacrifice her right to become a mother for the rest of her life.
But Grandma Liu dismissed his allegations. They also couldn’t deny what she said. She really had liked Huian, so it was possible that she might have suggested their marriage out of goodwill.
They also wanted to have a grand child. But…
Grandma Liu said, “That is just for now. I am sure when the child comes into this world, he will definitely love him and forget all his ill feelings.”
Mother Liu said, “Yes, dear. Why don’t you give it a chance? You are young so you may feel this temporarily but one day, you will also feel the need to have your own family. I don’t want you to regret missing the joy of parenthood in your life.”
Jing was exasperated. He felt like banging his head on a wall.
“Enough.”, Jinhai said gravely.
They stopped.
“I have already decided and I won’t change my decision. Huian will have to deal with it.”
Father Xiang was enraged, “How can you talk about my daughter like this? She is your wife!”
Mother Xiang also felt indignant.
Huian looked at him tearfully. She didn’t think that he would still stick to his words even when everyone is trying to convince him.
