Chapter 41: Repentance
"I don't want to!"
When Bai Shixi was about to put the ring on Ji Lingmeng's hand, Ji Lingmeng suddenly broke free and shouted, "I don't want to." 35xsā
The words "I don't want to" sounded calmly in the hall, and the noisy hall instantly fell into a state of stupor. Everyone looked at the girl in the center of the field in astonishment.
Three thousand green silk hung softly on the waist, the willow waist that Ying Ying held seemed to be unbearable, and a pink and purple ultra-short shawl small coat set off her excellent figure even more, and with a tender yellow velvet knee-length skirt, the girl was extremely beautiful, and her peerless face that could be broken by blowing was exuding a blurred brilliance.
Hundreds of pairs of eyes in the hall pierced the girl's heart like sharp swords, which made Ji Lingmeng's newly mustered courage almost collapse. But as soon as she thought of marrying the gentleman opposite, her heart suddenly turned sideways, for the sake of future happiness, she couldn't say that she would be willful once today.
"Reimu, what nonsense are you talking about, don't hurry up and retreat." Ji shouted coldly. He glanced anxiously at the stunned guests in the distance and the grim-faced daytime. He knew that his granddaughter had always been a little opposed to this family business, but he never expected Ji Lingmeng to say such a refusal in public, this was no longer an ordinary joke, but rose to the level of the future relationship between the two families.
"I don't, I don't want to marry that wretch. 35xs" Ji Lingmeng's eyes filled with tears and he shouted loudly.
Although she knew that the three words in her mouth referred to the previous Bai San Gongzi, she still stabbed into Bai Shixi's heart fiercely at this time. However, he didn't say anything, after all, if this engagement could be terminated, he would be happy to see it.
"Shut up, shut up for me." Ji Leng slapped her face angrily, and suddenly a clear palm print appeared on Ji Lingmeng's face.
Ji Lingmeng staggered and looked at her grandfather in disbelief, she didn't expect that her grandfather, who had always doted on her, would beat herself in public, her face was in hot pain, and a wisp of blood slowly slid down the corner of her mouth.
Ji Leng trembled with anger, pointed at Ji Lingmeng, clenched his fists, and roared, "Do you know what kind of place this is?" Any idea what you just did? ā
Bai Ji saw that the boss was so angry, his face turned blue slightly, and he sighed helplessly, he knew that all this was because Bai Shixi's reputation was too bad, and no one's daughter would take a fancy to his son. If it weren't for the good relationship between Mr. Ji and Old Man Bai, he would not have agreed to this engagement in the first place.
"I know, I know." Ji Lingmeng was slapped by his grandfather, but it aroused the rebellion in his heart, and pointed to Baishixi not far away: "Do you know that Baishixi is a gentleman, a waste who can't support the wall in the mud, and you want to push me into such a fire pit, and live with such a person, will I be happy?" ā
"Father, is your granddaughter's happiness so unimportant in your eyes?" Ji Lingmeng's last voice almost roared.
Ji Leng immediately raised his palm and wanted to fight again, but when he was about to touch his granddaughter's cheek, he felt that his granddaughter's unyielding eyes were full of tears, it was a resolute look and unswerving determination, and that palm did not go down after all, and slowly withdrew his palm.
His granddaughter understands that this matter is destined to be irreparable.
Turning to look at his old friend's son guiltily, Ji said coldly: "Tianji, I'm sorry." ā
"You shouldn't have told me this, you should have said it to my son." Bai Ji naturally didn't have a good face for him, and snorted coldly when he heard this.
Ji Leng looked at Bai Shixi embarrassedly and said, "Shixi, Grandpa Ji is sorry for you." ā
"Grandpa Ji is serious, where is there anything to be sorry for, you were able to promise my grandfather this engagement, I am already very grateful. All this is my own incompetence. Bai Shixi said in a calm tone, without a trace of anger.
Ji Leng was about to say something, when Bai Shixi stepped forward and interrupted: "You don't need to explain anything to me, but Grandpa Ji also hurriedly solved the problem of the guests in front of him and the faces of Ji Bai." ā
"It's nature." Ji Leng said hurriedly. Glancing at Zhao Chen suspiciously, a strange premonition suddenly appeared in his heart, why did such an ugly thing happen, Bai Shixi could still deal with it so indifferently, such a mentality even he couldn't do. Such a state of mind is really unusual at such a young age.
glanced back at his granddaughter, and saw that although Ji Lingmeng's eyes contained a lot of tears, a smile quietly appeared in his eyes. Alas, silly granddaughter! Maybe you've missed out on the greatest treasure of your life. The wind and snow can certainly be enjoyable, but the ordinary is life!
Bai Ji came to his son, patted him on the shoulder, and sighed, "Be strong." ā
"Why is the eldest husband without a wife, I swear here today that one day I will make her regret it." Bai Shixi smiled, signaling that Bai Ji was fine, but instead comforted him.
The faint and calm words sounded in the hall, and all the people quietly glanced at the indifferent young man, and a strange feeling suddenly arose in their hearts, just like a beggar suddenly saying that he would become the richest man in the world.
"Hmph, is it up to you? I, Ji Lingmeng, also swear here today, even if I marry a pig and a dog in this life, I will not marry you. Ji Lingmeng was also an arrogant woman, and when she heard this, she immediately fought back.
"Shut up, you know?" Ji Leng turned around and scolded. People say it's for the sake of face, why do you want people to be unable to get off the stage? This is not a human being. He didn't expect his granddaughter to be so careful. Today's incident was originally something she did wrong, not to mention letting the family say a few words, even if Bai Shixi stepped forward and slapped her a few times, he could only watch dryly.
"Okay, good, well, it seems that my Bai family is so bad." Bai Ji laughed and laughed, then his face changed, and he said coldly: "Shixi, let's go." ā
"Tianji, don't go." Ji Leng was in a hurry and hurriedly shouted.
"It's all like this, are we still here to be humiliated?" Bai Ji didn't look at him at all, but glanced at his son.
Bai Shixi followed behind him expressionlessly and walked out as well.
Ji Leng looked at the figure of his old friend's family leaving, sighed deeply, and said, "I will come to the door again another day to apologize." He understands that when the Bai family steps out of this door today, the relationship between the two sides will not be harmonious.
The guests soon left, and only a few people remained in the huge restaurant. It's hard to imagine a moment ago when the restaurant was full and the wine glasses were staggered.
