Chapter 1283 - He Was Marrying Another Woman (2/2)

Was Young Master Qiao going to marry Ji Wei?

They were discussing their marriage in the private room?

A large turmoil swarmed in Cen Xi’s heart. She was in a complete mess now.

Even if they were already intimate physically, Qiao Yanze and her weren’t intimate emotionally. No matter how intimate they were physically, she had no rights to question him at all.

To think that their relations.h.i.+p would slowly improve after they got intimate physically… She was too naive. However, there were too many things between them. There would never be a happy ending between them.

And he, after what happened to his family, how would he really fall for a woman because he had slept with her?

Cen Xi took out her phone. Her long lashes cast a shadow over her phone as she sent him a message. ‘Are you coming back for dinner tonight?’

She thought that he wouldn’t reply. However, just as she was walking out of the toilets, she received a message from him. ‘I have something on. I’ll be late.’

Somehow, she sent: ‘Where are you?’

After nearly a minute, he replied: ‘Working.’

Cen Xi bit her lip, feeling like a sharp weapon had been stabbed into her heart. All of her blood turned cold in seconds.

Working? Did he mean that he was working overtime?

Did he plan to hide the truth from her? Did he plan to keep her in the mansion as his venting outlet?

A cold smirk appeared on Cen Xi’s lips.

…

In the luxurious private room.

The waiter served them their dishes as Qiao Yanze gestured for Ji Hong and Ji Wei to start eating.

Qiao Yanze had brought the best alcohol the Qiao family had, pouring a gla.s.s full for Ji Hong personally.

After three rounds of alcohol, Qiao Yanze brought the conversation to the main topic they had met for today. “Uncle Ji, Xiao Wei, I thought about my marriage matters for the entire night without sleeping. I don’t want to lie to you. I only treat Xiao Wei as a friend, my benefactor and a younger sister. I cannot agree to what Uncle Ji has suggested.”

Ji Wei stared at Qiao Yanze’s handsome face, his well-defined facial features and his dark eyes. She felt extremely sad, her eyes already turning red unconsciously.

Ji Hong didn’t expect Qiao Yanze to give a reply so quickly, not to mention that it was a rejection. He furrowed his eyebrows. “Yanze, Weiwei only wants the t.i.tle of Mrs Qiao. Can’t it work out, even if she will not care about your private life outside?”

Qiao Yanze’s expression was determined. “Uncle Ji, I said before that I would never go looking for another woman if I was married.”

“Yanze, if it doesn’t work, how about this? Our hometown is still ruled by old customs and men can have multiple wifes. As long as you marry Weiwei as your first wife, you can have a second wife as well.”

Qiao Yanze pursed his lips. He suddenly took out a sharp dagger. “Uncle Ji, I am very grateful that Xiao Wei didn’t betray me back then. I owe the Ji family a very huge favor in my life. I can use my life to repay you, but I can never play with my marriage. I will never allow myself to have multiple wifes.”

Ji Hong wanted to say more, when Qiao Yanze took the dagger and pressed it against his heart.

Seeing that he was about to stab himself, Ji Wei cried out in shock as she pounced towards Qiao Yanze with a paled expression, wanting to push his hand away from his heart. However, he flexed and the dagger stabbed into himself.
