Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 252 - 225: Who Says I Don’t Want to Get Married
[Oh, finally, after going around in such a big circle, you finally revealed your true purpose.]
[So, in the end, it still comes down to not wanting to give a dowry.]
[But I don’t get it, didn’t the destined one say earlier that everything had been settled with her boyfriend? Why is she suddenly changing her mind now?]
[Don’t you get it yet? It’s because he knows the destined one is pregnant! He thinks he has the upper hand now. No matter what, the destined one has to marry him, so why spend that extra two hundred thousand?]
[Oh my God...]
[That line ’they can even pretend until after you have the baby’ has just gained more weight.]
...
Zhao Yixuan, hearing this, had already turned pale. How could she not understand the underlying meaning in her boyfriend’s words?
She laughed in anger, "What do you mean, you don’t want to get married anymore?"
"I do, of course I do."
Even though he couldn’t be seen, just from his words, one could feel how shameless the expression on her boyfriend’s face must be at this moment, "Who said I don’t want to get married?"
Zhao Yixuan’s displeasure was normal; he had anticipated it in advance, so he didn’t think much of it.
"But hasn’t something unexpected happened now?"
Zhao Yixuan snorted coldly, "What accident? Just because I’m pregnant?"
"You’re pregnant, so we have to spend more money, and my parents will have to endure more hardship. I think we should save this money."
"My parents have just me as a child; won’t their money eventually be mine anyway? You shouldn’t be so calculating at this time."
In the end, it’s Zhao Yixuan who is blamed for being too calculating.
"It was already a bit of a struggle for our family to come up with that money."
Zhao Yixuan countered, "If it was a struggle, why didn’t you say so earlier? Why mention it only after knowing I’m pregnant?"
Her boyfriend was at a loss for words.
But he was still searching for dignified excuses, "I just didn’t want you to be unhappy."
In any case, he certainly wasn’t wrong.
Something that was clearly agreed upon by both parties, in the end, turned out to be Zhao Yixuan’s problem alone.
Listening to the man’s voice, Zhao Yixuan no longer knew what to say.
After being together for so many years, it felt like Zhao Yixuan was truly meeting this man for the first time.
Seeing that after all the persuading, she still had not much reaction, her boyfriend knew that some words only needed to be said, and he lost patience.
"Since you have no problem, then it’s settled."
"During the wedding the day after tomorrow, I’ll just bring an empty bank card."
"Don’t worry, no matter how our family treats me, in front of outsiders, I won’t let you lose face."
He finished speaking and hung up the phone.
This phone call infuriated the livestream viewers immensely.
[What does he mean? He brings an empty bank card, and I have to thank him? I’m really gonna die laughing.]
[And he says I won’t lose face in front of outsiders; with a boyfriend like this, I’d break up on the spot!]
[In fact, it boils down to his firm decision not to give her a dowry.]
[What I feared the most happened. This was what I was most afraid of after learning the destined one was pregnant.]
[But actually, marrying someone like this would be more miserable, might as well see his true face before getting married.]
[What does it matter if you see it? Now that there’s a child, can the destined one not marry? No matter how you look at it, in this situation, it’s always the girl who loses the most, she just has to endure it quietly for the child’s sake.]
...
No matter how lively the online discussion got, Zhao Yixuan seemed not to see it; her eyes stared blankly as she was lost in thought, her expression extremely complex.
Until Mu Yunchu spoke.
"Do you want to see what he’s doing now?"
Zhao Yixuan was startled, "How will you do that?"
Mu Yunchu raised a hand, and instantly another screen appeared on the livestream.
On the screen was Zhao Yixuan’s boyfriend.
She got closer to the screen with wide eyes and soon realized the footage was being broadcast from behind her.
She turned her head quickly, and when she saw the moving scene in the void, she was immediately shocked.
This was the first time Mu Yunchu demonstrated such an ability on the livestream.
[No way! The streamer is surely not ordinary, right, with ability like this?]
[... That, that wouldn’t be the destined one’s boyfriend, would it? And the old woman next to him... that’s her mother, right?]
Everyone was stunned for quite a while.
There really was such an ability that only appears in novels.
Zhao Yixuan instinctively closed her mouth, silencing her voice, afraid they might hear.
However, Mu Yunchu said, "Don’t worry, no matter how you speak, they won’t see or hear a thing."
This feeling was magical, like surveillance appearing out of thin air. Her boyfriend’s every move and word was clearly visible.
Until a sound came from it, the viewers stopped commenting and focused intently.
The middle-aged woman, who was initially standing at a distance, upon seeing her son put down the phone, knew the conversation had ended and hurriedly approached to inquire:
"So, how was it? What did she say?"
This ’she’ was clearly understood by everyone to refer to Zhao Yixuan.
The call that just came was evidently pre-discussed by the mother and son.
The young man snorted softly, his face full of disdain.
"What could she say, of course, she’s not happy."
"Didn’t we already know that before calling?"
Even though he knew Zhao Yixuan would be upset, he still deliberately said those words.
And the middle-aged woman clearly had no interest in this; she just wanted to know if they still had to give away that money.
The two hundred thousand was indeed their hard-earned money.
A lifetime of saving still couldn’t accumulate it.
Now they actually had to give it to another unfamiliar woman, and even borrow some more on top of that.
How could she be happy?
Of course, the man knew what his mom was thinking, and he reassuringly patted her shoulder, "Don’t worry, Mom, since Yixuan is pregnant now, even if I don’t give her a dowry, she still has to marry me."
"We originally considered giving her two hundred thousand just because of her good family background; maybe she could be of some help to me in the future."
"I never expected the heavens to help me as well; she’s pregnant, so whatever she says, she has to marry me."
The middle-aged woman, hearing this, was quite reassured, grinning as she patted her son’s shoulder, "You’re still the better one!"
But her smile immediately froze, turning worried, "But she wouldn’t really refuse to marry, would she?"
"Impossible!" The man gestured with his hand, exuding confidence.
"Anyway, there are still two days left, for the next couple of days, I won’t call her; let her stew for two days, and she’ll start to panic."
"After all, it’s not my belly that’s getting bigger."
The happier he laughed, the more it stung Zhao Yixuan’s eyes.
The middle-aged woman kept nodding, "Oh yes, there’s a miracle doctor in our village, you should take Zhao Yixuan there to check if the baby is a boy."
She spoke while watching the expression on her son’s face, "You really don’t plan to just have one child, do you?"
"If it’s a girl, I’m telling you, your ancestors won’t rest in peace up in the heavens."
"You must have a son anyway!"
The man’s voice rose, "Of course! Once she’s married into our family, everything will be decided by me, your son."
"No such thing as not having a second child, by then, it won’t be her decision anymore!"
Having children was inherently a woman’s only value, and what he said was only a trick to fool Zhao Yixuan.
