My Beloved-Chapter 472 - ZHENG MIAN'S AGNER
Han Luo, Zheng Mian, and Beth went to look for the newly betrothed couple. While asking multiple people, they finally reached their destination. Before Zheng Mian could open the door, the door opened from the inside. The girls halted in their tracks.
They were surprised to see a girl coming out, wearing a top, shorts, and a jacket. The girl's hair was tied into a ponytail and there was a helmet in her hands. At first, the girls thought they were in the wrong room and were going to apologize. But, Han Luo paused from doing so when she saw a familiar made up face.
'No way! Is this Tang Mei?' Han Luo was so surprised that she couldn't talk. She couldn't understand how in such a short period the traditional girl she knew had turned into a modern girl.
'Maybe, I'm seeing something wrong,' Han Luo thought. She hesitantly called out, "…Tang Mei?"
The girl in front of her bluntly answered, "Yes, that's me."
"!!!" Beth's jaw dropped onto the floor. It felt like she was watching the movie "Transformer". The yellow car had suddenly turned into a Bumble Bee.
"So, Ah Ming is inside, isn't he?" Zheng Mian asked. She didn't have the time to get surprised by the fiancée of her boyfriend. She was ready to beat her boyfriend.
"Yes, he is inside," Tang Mei confirmed.
Zheng Mian didn't wait any longer. She went inside the room.
Tang Mei crossed her arms and stared at Han Luo. "You, Han Luo. You are the one my cousin always had a crush on. But, he got engaged to another girl because you didn't approve of him. What do you have to say about this?"
Upon hearing her threatening words, Han Luo came back to reality. The shy spoken girl suddenly changed her attitude. 'This must be her real self,' Han Luo thought.
She answered Tang Mei, "Big brother Yujin chose his own path. It has nothing to do with me. Back then, when our engagement was decided, he refused to acknowledge my true personality and canceled the engagement. Even if he regrets it right now, there is nothing he can do to undo the past. Our ways have already parted. I've already found the man I want to be with. That's why, no matter what he felt about me and how much he suffered, I can only congratulate him and wish him happiness."
"Hmm," Tang Mei narrowed her eyes and looked at Han Luo's unwavering eyes. A few moments later, she smirked. "I like your attitude. Good luck with your love life." She walked past her and waved her hand without looking back again.
Beth finally found her voice. "She is terrifyingly gorgeous," she commented. Her voice was filled with admiration.
"I think she is good. She is straightforward. People like her don't hide anything. So, she isn't two faced." Han Luo smiled and looked at her friend. "I like her already."
"I wonder what Mian is doing to Sheng Ming." Beth tugged her friend. "Let's see what the couple is doing? Sheng Ming deserves a good beating."
Han Luo and Beth peeked inside the room and gasped in astonishment.

Zheng Mian was ready to beat Han Sheng Ming into a pulp, but her anger died when she saw blood on his face. "Ah Ming!" She shouted and ran toward him. She gently cupped his face while asking, "How did you injure yourself? How can you be so careless?"
"Mi… Mian…" Han Sheng Ming hugged her tight and buried his face in her bosom. "Mian, I'm so sorry. I couldn't do anything. I'll talk to my father and break off the engagement I promised."
He already apologized. What else could she do? "Are you sure you can do this?" She questioned him suspiciously. She doubted if he could pull that off.
"Yes, yes, I can." He looked at her with puppy dog eyes and asked her, "Why? Don't you trust me? Do you think I'm a coward too?" His eyes were glittering as if he was going to cry.
'Wait, wait, who is supposed to cry right now? I think our positions are reversed. This is not the time for that,' Zheng Mian sighed. "What do you plan to do?" She inquired.
Han Sheng Ming spoke with determination, "I'll talk to my father."
Zheng Mian told him, "Talking won't solve anything. Your father did it precisely because he doesn't acknowledge our relationship."
"I don't think so. He doesn't even know that we are dating," Han Sheng Ming confessed.
Zheng Mian was surprised. "What? Didn't you tell your family about us?"
"I was going to, after I propose…" Han Sheng Ming instantly covered his face. But whatever he wanted to hide was exposed.
Could she stay mad at him after what he just told her?
Zheng Mian asked him, "When did you decide to propose to me?"
Han Sheng Ming lowered his head. He was upset that he told her about his surprise plan. He answered, "…After graduation. I thought we could get married after we settle our careers just like you said."
Zheng Mian remembered once they were talking about the future and she told him to settle down after they reached their goals. Her heart swayed realizing he remembered everything she said two years ago.
This time, she hugged him and said, "Let's go to your father together and talk to him properly. I think we need Yujin's help since business negotiations are dependent on marriage."
"Okay," Han Sheng Ming gleefully embraced his girlfriend. He told himself inwardly, 'Just as I thought, my Mian is that best. While my little Luo Luo is the cutest. The rest of the women are all scary.'
"Don't just ignore us. We want to help you too." Beth entered the room and Han Luo happily followed her.
Han Luo told them, "It won't be hard to change uncle's mind but it will be hard to change Grandpa Tang's mind. He will explode."
Han Sheng Ming insincerely stated, "Tang Mei doesn't want to get married either. Leave it to her. She will manage her family."
And, he got lectured by his girlfriend, "Don't act so cowardly and leave it to a woman. Man up, and break off your engagement together. Working together is more effective than working alone."
"So, how are we going to proceed?"
