Shi Man crossed her legs and leaned back on the sofa with her upper body. She smiled and said, “No, to you, Yi Zheng betrayed you, but if he chooses you when he sees you later, it means that he betrayed me.”
“Then what will you do?” Wen Xiu clenched her fists and stared at Shi Man nervously as if she was vigilant that she would walk into the trap she had set.
Shi Man shrugged casually. “Then 1 don’t want him. I’ll give up on him and let him get lost as far as possible.”
Wen Xiu was slightly stunned. She subconsciously widened her eyes and stared at her for a long time. Realizing how serious she was when she said this, she couldn’t help but feel relieved. “Then you agree to withdraw? That’s great! Then leave now. Anyway, Brother Yi Zheng will definitely choose me later!”
Shi Man couldn’t help but laugh and shake her head. “No, you don’t understand yet. What 1 mean is that there’s no need to forgive people who betray themselves. Feelings are just between two people. As long as another person is involved, this relationship will be unclean. It’s not worth you cherishing it.” Wen Xiu opened her mouth to retort, but her heart was pounding in her chest.
She hopelessly chose to believe Shi Man’s words because what she said was exactly what she had always thought.
However, her mother had told her since she was young that men were not loyal. They would all be half-hearted in their relationships and like the new and hate the old. This was very normal. She did not have to make a fuss. As long as she could make a man change his mind, she could continue to be his only wife.
Therefore, when her father cheated on her mother with another woman, Wen Xiu saw her mother wipe her tears with her own eyes and pretended to be relaxed as she chose to forgive him.
As expected, her father returned to the family not long after. He still loved her and her mother as before.
Wen Xiu felt that her mother was right. That was a man’s nature. Her relationship with Brother Yi Zheng would be the same.
Even if Brother Yi Zheng had fallen in love with another woman on the way to growing old with her, as long as he was willing to turn back, she could still wait for him and continue walking with him.
However, as long as she thought of this possibility, her heart would ache for some reason.
Wen Xiu looked up at Shi Man in a daze and subconsciously muttered to herself, “It’s not worth it?”
“Yes,” Shi Man answered with certainty.
Wen Xiang’s heart wavered uncontrollably, but in an instant, her eyes regained their calmness. “Alright, 1 can believe you, but the premise is that you can’t go back on your word. If Brother Yi Zheng chooses me later, you have to take the initiative to withdraw. Like 1 told you, you must never appear in front of the two of us again.”
“No problem,” Shi Man agreed readily.
She did not know what was going on with this ridiculous betrothal, but based on the information she had obtained from her conversation with the girl just now, it was very likely that this was just a joke casually set by the elders of both sides back then.
However, none of them had expected that this joke would be remembered by the girl for so many years.
The office was finally pushed open from the inside.
Wen Xiu wiped her tears and looked at the door with a smile. Her hands were crossed behind her. This time, she was completely different from when she was facing Shi Man. The arrogance in her eyes had completely faded, replaced by shyness.
There was a commotion at the door. The first person to walk out was Yi Ming.
The Old Master had been discharged from the hospital a few months ago and was completely fine now. When he walked out of the office, he was caught off guard and saw Shi Man. His expression instantly darkened. He snorted and turned to leave with the butler’s help.
The others came out one after another. One of them was the uncle who had brought Wen Xiu here. He looked at Wen Xiu and glanced sideways at Shi Man. He slowly stopped and waited for Yi Zheng, who was at the back.
Seeing her come out, the man immediately gave Wen Xiu a look and looked at Yi Zheng with a smile. “Xiao Zheng, do you want to come to my house for a drink later? Your aunt will make a few of your favorite dishes.”
The light and shadow swayed in the open door. It was dusk, and the setting sun outside shone into the room, reflecting a golden setting.
Yi Zheng walked out of the door under the sunlight. With one hand in his pocket, he smiled politely and said, “No, this matter can’t be delayed. 1 have something else to do later.”
“There’s no hurry. By the way, let me introduce someone to you.” The man raised his hand and called Wen Xiang over. He pulled the shy person hiding behind him to the front and smiled. “Do you remember? Your little sister, Wen Xiu.”
“I remember.” Yi Zheng lowered his eyes and nodded as a greeting. Then, he couldn’t help but glance at Shi Man.
When Wen Xiu heard that he still remembered her, she thought that Yi Zheng had not forgotten the engagement with her. She immediately pounced on Yi Zheng and hugged his arm. “Since you haven’t forgotten, when are we getting married?”
Yi Zheng dodged the moment she pounced on him. He frowned and said sternly, “Don’t fool around.. When did 1 have an engagement with you?”
