"Dongfang Mei's stomach will surely grow bigger day by day. If I don't marry Dongfang Mei, the reputation of both our families will be ruined!"
"Tiansheng Group cannot be affected in any way right now, otherwise we won't be able to establish ourselves in the capital. Moreover, our Jiang family will become a laughingstock because of this!"
Jiang Yi said, "Besides, Dongfang Mei is the eldest daughter of the Dongfang family. If she gets pregnant before marriage, how will she face anyone in the future? Anyway, we have to get married sooner or later, so marrying now is the same!"
Hearing this, Li Ping nodded.
"You've grown up and finally know how to consider the consequences when you act!"
Li Ping said with relief, "You are steady in your actions, and I am at ease. Tomorrow, you will accompany me to the Dongfang family. You should talk to Dongfang Mei properly. This matter cannot be taken lightly, otherwise, you know the consequences."
"I understand!" Jiang Yi said.
"By the way, there's something I don't understand!"
Li Ping's gaze fell upon Jiang Yi.
"Dongfang Mei has always liked you very much and dreamt of marrying you. Why doesn't she want to marry you now and wants you to beg her?"
"She's doing it on purpose!"
Jiang Yi finished, "She knows she's pregnant, and I will definitely marry her, so she's using the marriage to make me bow down."
"Preposterous!"
Li Ping said angrily, "She hasn't even entered our Jiang family's door yet, and she's already doing something like this! If she were to enter our Jiang family's door, who knows what would happen? If she weren't pregnant, I would never agree to your marriage."
Seeing Li Ping so angry, Jiang Yi regretted mentioning this.
"Mom, don't be angry!"
Jiang Yi said, "Dongfang Mei has suffered a lot. She has no other intentions, she just wants to play a joke on me!"
"You don't need to speak up for Dongfang Mei. I know very well what kind of person she is! Once she marries into our Jiang family, I will definitely discipline her well and let her know that if she wants to be a daughter-in-law of our Jiang family, she must be well-behaved!" Li Ping said.
Jiang Yi felt like crying but also laughing!
After Dongfang Mei married him, these two would probably turn the household upside down.
Jiang Yi knew Dongfang Mei's personality; she was someone who couldn't be swayed by either soft or hard tactics.
"It's getting late, I need to rest. You should rest early too, we still have to go to the Dongfang family tomorrow!"
After Li Ping finished speaking, she returned to her room!
The night passed without incident!
The next morning, Jiang Yi drove Li Ping to the Dongfang family.
As soon as they got out of the car, they saw Dongfang Teng standing at the villa entrance, along with some members of the Dongfang family.
"Why don't I see Madam Liu?" Li Ping asked.
"Her illness hasn't recovered yet, so she can't be exposed to the cold wind, which is why she sent us to welcome Madam Jiang!" Nan Gong Teng said hastily.
"Take me to see her!" Li Ping said.
"Okay!" Su Dan Novel Network
Nan Gong Teng responded and then led Li Ping and Jiang Yi into the villa.
As soon as they entered the hall, they saw Liu Hong.
Liu Hong was sitting on the sofa in the hall, looking much better.
"Aunt Liu, where is Dongfang Mei?" Jiang Yi asked.
"She's in the garden in the backyard!"
Liu Hong finished and smiled, "Hurry up and go see her! She's been talking about you all morning, she probably misses you!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yi left the hall and went to the garden in the back.
As soon as he arrived at the garden, he saw Dongfang Mei.
Dongfang Mei had been waiting for Jiang Yi.
"Why are you here?" Dongfang Mei asked.
"Can't I come?" Jiang Yi retorted.
"Of course, you can come!"
Dongfang Mei smiled, "But you've come at the wrong time. I've already told my mother that we'll talk about the marriage later. I don't want to marry you now, and my mother agreed. So, you and Auntie have come for nothing today!"
"Can you stop causing trouble?"
Jiang Yi said speechlessly, "I came here today with sincere intentions to propose to you."
"Since you've come to propose to me sincerely, why have you come empty-handed?"
"You're here to propose to me, shouldn't you at least buy a bouquet of roses or something? You didn't bring anything, is this what you call sincerity?" Dongfang Mei asked.
Jiang Yi was completely speechless!
This time, Dongfang Mei had the upper hand.
"Tell me, what exactly do you want before you're willing to marry me?" Jiang Yi asked.
"I don't want anything specific! In short, I don't want to marry you now. We'll get married after you've sorted out your affairs!" Dongfang Mei said.
Jiang Yi took a deep breath. Dongfang Mei's mood changed faster than flipping a book.
Suddenly, at this moment, Ying Zi arrived!
"Is something wrong?" Dongfang Mei asked.
Seeing Jiang Yi there, Ying Zi had a hesitant expression.
"It's okay, just say it!" Dongfang Mei said.
"Just now, Madam Jiang mentioned your marriage to Mr. Jiang to Madam. Madam outright refused, and Madam Jiang was preparing to leave," Ying Zi said.
Hearing this, Dongfang Mei became a little anxious.
She just wanted to tease Jiang Yi. If she angered Li Ping too much, she wouldn't even have the chance to marry.
"You don't understand my mother, she can't tolerate being provoked and she's very proud. If Aunt Liu refuses, my mother will definitely leave directly!"
Jiang Yi smiled slightly, "Didn't you just say you didn't want to marry me? Now it's as you wish!"
Dongfang Mei frowned slightly and said, "Go and check the hall again..."
"Yes!"
Ying Zi responded and left the garden.
Jiang Yi couldn't help but smile inwardly.
No matter how clever Liu Hong and Dongfang Mei were, they couldn't outwit his mother because his mother knew Dongfang Mei's intentions.
"Forget it!"
Jiang Yi said, "Since you don't want to marry me now, that's fine. We'll talk about the marriage later!"
"Okay!" Dongfang Mei said.
"Then it's decided!"
After Jiang Yi finished, he continued, "I have something else to do, I need to leave now."
Then, Jiang Yi turned and walked straight out of the garden.
Seeing Jiang Yi preparing to leave, Dongfang Mei felt a little flustered and quickly called out, "Wait..."
"Is there anything else?" Jiang Yi asked with a smile.
"Considering your sincerity, I agree to marry you!" Dongfang Mei said.
Hearing this, Jiang Yi couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Dongfang Mei asked.
"Now that you've agreed, my mother probably won't anymore!"
Jiang Yi shrugged and said, "I know my mother's temper very well. She's the most impatient person. Perhaps she's already left."
As soon as Dongfang Mei heard this, she didn't have time to think and hurried towards the hall.
Jiang Yi watched Dongfang Mei's retreating figure, a smile forming at the corner of his lips.
Dongfang Mei was too much of a troublemaker!
But it was a pity, her little tricks were useless against his mother.
"Beep beep..."
Jiang Yi's phone suddenly rang.
He took it out and saw that it was Shen Lu calling.
Jiang Yi answered the phone!
