A Delightful Marriage with Twins - Chapter 101

Chapter 101: 11. They could not separate

After Bai Li left, He Yi solemnly said to Yi Liangze, “I suggest that the wedding be postponed. You should take the initiative to tell the elders so that they won’t be put in a difficult position.”

Yi Liangze was very surprised. “Why?”

“The poisoning case can’t be investigated in a short period, and the matter has become so loud. It would be too much of a stretch to hold a wedding at this time. Moreover, your second Aunt said that if I were to marry into the Yi family, she would have to leave with her child. Once this happens, the wedding would turn into a sad matter. The elders would not be happy!” He Yi listed out the reasons one by one, however, what she did not say was that she felt that her marriage with Yi Liangze was too rushed. Before the knot in her heart with him was unlocked, a quickie marriage would only end up in a kind of trauma.

She did not want to hurt him, nor did she want him to hurt her because of it. The only choice was to postpone the wedding and wait until they understood each other and could truly accept each other before they got together.

After saying this, He Yi saw that Yi Liangze was silent, so she could only explain helplessly. “Originally, I also planned to accept this flash marriage, but… I once told you that after the two of us get married, we will still live our own lives, because… I can not accept a man whose body has betrayed me…”

“Qing Xing is already dead, and you still won’t give up!” Yi Liangze interrupted her.

He Yi fell silent. She suddenly realized that although the two of them seemed to be close to each other, they were very far away.

Yi Liangze stood up, and his tone was determined without any room for negotiation. “The wedding date will not be postponed! I believe that you are not the one who poisoned him. As for where the real murderer is, let the police slowly find out! If the elders in the family have any objections or make a fuss about moving away with the children, it has nothing to do with me. The person you are marrying is me, not them! If they don’t agree, we will hold the wedding in Jinxiu Hua Ting. In any case, the wedding room has long been prepared!

He Yi turned her head and said coldly, “Since you have already decided, I have nothing to say!”

He was determined to complete the marriage on time, and she could not stop him. However, he had to bear all the consequences himself.

…

“I’ve said it before. After the marriage, Wan Wan and I will still live in the Leather Factory, and we’ll live our separate lives!” When she said these words, her gaze avoided Yi Liangze.

She had said these words to him before with confidence. However, because he had helped her investigate Mayor Chu’s bribery case, it could be said that he had helped her a great deal. This means she owes him a huge favor. In addition, his great assistance had allowed Wan Wan to slowly accept that Chu Tianyi was not her biological father. She had also gradually accepted the fact that Yi Liangze was her biological father. This meant a lot to He Yi.

He had made two great contributions. She could not bear to treat him so coldly anymore. What kind of marriage was this? Therefore, she had proposed to postpone the wedding while there was controversy over the poisoning case. Wouldn’t it be better to wait until they had resolved the knot in their hearts before getting married?

However, Yi Liangze’s attitude was extremely firm. There was no room for negotiation at all.

She had suggested that they should live separate lives after getting married. Her tone and attitude were no longer as confident as before.

Yi Liangze did not get angry. Instead, he laughed coldly and said, “It doesn’t matter where we live! I can move to the leather factory with Baby!”

He Yi could no longer remain calm. She turned her head and looked at him in disbelief. “You and Baby are moving to the Factory?”

What a joke!

“If you and Wan Wan can live there, why can’t I and Baby live there?” Yi Liang said righteously. “A family should live together, we can’t live apart!”

After saying that, as He Yi seemed to want to refute it, he quickly stated, “That day, nothing happened between me and Qing Xing. When you catch an adulterer, you have to catch both of them! You condemned me just like that and used it as a reason and excuse to live apart after marriage. I’m not convinced!”

He Yi looked at him and bit her lip. She was having an intense struggle in her mind.

Was she being too pretentious? The children needed him as a father, and he had helped her to deal with Chu Tianyi several times as a way to repay his kindness… No, her misfortune was all caused by him. He should be the one to compensate her, not her to repay him.

If she had not been raped by him back then, she would not have given birth to twins before marriage. Now, of course, she would not have to reluctantly accept him for the sake of the children.

As for Chu Tianyi… even if he did not help her, she would have eventually dealt with him. It was just that she needed more time to do things.

“He Yi, our marriage is not only for ourselves but also for the children!” Yi Liangze softened his tone and attitude. He tried to get closer to her, wanting to pull her back into his embrace. “Stop being stubborn! The baby needs a mother, and Wan Wan needs a father too! Otherwise, she will always be stupid and not know who her father is!”

Perhaps it was the last sentence that made He Yi make up her mind, but she finally compromised. She let out a long sigh, and her whole body softened.

Yi Liangze took the opportunity to pull her into his arms and said gently, “Be good, what’s wrong with marrying me? I will love you well!” As he said that, he kissed her gently.

He Yi was powerless to resist. She could only close her eyes and make one last request to him, which was her bottom line. “The thing with Qing Xing made me very sad. I don’t want to experience it a second time in my life!”

“It won’t happen!” Yi Liangze quickly promised. “There won’t be a second time!”

“What if there’s a second time?” He Yi opened her eyes. Her clear eyes were as cold as a cold star.

Yi Liangze was a little embarrassed. After a long time, he said, “It’s up to you to deal with it!”

This was a very cunning answer. Her punishment could be big or small! Just like how she had originally decided to be a nominal couple with him, her heart softened because of his great contributions. Now that she had promised him, the bottom line that she was prepared to hold on to became vulnerable.

However, there should be a second time for an affair! He could not resist the temptation of Qing Xing, so he might not be able to resist the temptation of other beauties. When the relationship between the two became dull, he might make the same mistake again for the sake of passion.

There was a prolonged silence. He Yi finally said solemnly, “If there is another similar matter, we must agree on a divorce. As for whether we want to maintain a marriage of convenience or a public divorce after, it depends on the situation!”

After all, the Yi family was large, and divorce was a shameful matter. He was also the father of two children. If they were to divorce, of course, he had to consider everything thoroughly and reduce all the losses and injuries to the lowest point.

Yi Liangze seemed to be in disbelief. His surprise was greater than his anger. “You’re not married yet, and you’re already planning to divorce!”

He Yi turned her face away, not intending to apologize for this. “Who asked you to have a criminal record!”

“…” Yi Liangze was silent for a long time, and many complicated emotions flashed across his deep, dark eyes.

He Yi did not know what he was thinking about at this moment. was he thinking about his future with her or the dead Qing Xing?

Towards the dead Qing Xing, the two of them undoubtedly felt guilty. Although Qing Xing was dead, she was forever standing between them.

He Yi was very clear that the two of them would never be able to return to the pure and passionate love of the past. They had also lost their initial trust.

After an unknown amount of time, Yi Liangze gently pushed her away and slowly stood up. He said, “I’ll go and see the children.”

“Oh!.” He Yi also stood up. For some reason, she felt a little awkward and uncomfortable. “I should go back too!”

“Alright then.” Yi Liangze curled his lips. “Let’s go out together!”

*

Back at the factory, her mood was a little stifled. It was good news that Wan Wan had acknowledged her biological father. After Chu Tianyi found out the truth about Mayor Chu’s corruption, he probably wouldn’t continue to harm her. However, why did his heart feel like it was weighed down by a heavy stone? Why wasn’t he happy.

“… no, I’m working! … I can’t do that. There’s been a lot of things going on at the factory recently. I’ve been lazy for a long time accompanying you to play, and I’ve left a lot of work behind. When He Yi comes back, she’ll scold me!”

He Yi pushed open the office door and heard Wei Jimeng chatting on the phone. As for who she was talking to, judging from her sweet voice, she must be flirting with Fang Yu.

“… Tomorrow! I really can’t spare time! It’s getting late… Aiya, I really can’t talk to you anymore! Otherwise, I’ll have to work overtime tonight!”

After hanging up the phone with great difficulty, Wei Jiameng’s face was still flushed with excitement. She stroked her violent heartbeat and was about to continue working when she realized that He Yi had returned.

“Hey, you’re back!” Wei Jiameng cheered, “That’s great! I don’t have to work overtime tonight!”

He Yi’s expression was a little unsightly. She threw her bag into the sofa and sat down. “I specifically told you that your task today was very heavy, and I have a lot of things to be busy with. You only cared about dating that playboy and didn’t do anything!”

“I have things to do too.” Wei Jiameng’s biggest advantage was her good temper. Especially when He Yi was unhappy, she was always careful not to quarrel with her. “Here, I helped you print out the new order from Jinling!”

Hearing the words ‘New Order’, He Yi felt excited. “Let’s have a look.”

Forget it, forget it. Who hasn’t lost their mind in love! Wei Jiameng would at most delay Fang Yu’s labor time, but she had been tricked by Chu Tianyi into going to the He Corporation.

As a woman, she had to do a few silly things to live up to the word ‘love’ when she was in love.

He Yi adjusted her emotions as she mocked herself. She reached out to take the new order and skimmed through it. She couldn’t help smiling.

“How is it? I knew your anger would dissipate after seeing this.” Wei Jiameng smiled and lifted her chin. “It’s three times the price!”

He Yi slowly stopped smiling and sighed lightly. “Although the price is high, the production is low!”

Jinling Group’s Inspectors passed all the 3A leather sent by Fu Xing. They had also started to process and produce luxury leather goods. The quality of the finished product was super good, and it received the unanimous approval of all the inspectors.

Therefore, the high-level Council of Jinling decided to increase the purchase of 3A leathers, as much as possible, and order 100 million worth of leather

This was undoubtedly a big cake, but he yi was both happy and worried. She knew very well that no matter how many orders there were, no matter how big the profits were, if they could not produce enough leather, everything would be in vain.

The most important thing now was to quickly find an additive that could replace the wild pigeon dung. Only by not being affected by the output could they start to sell more leather.

When she walked out of the office, she happened to see Wen Yongxiang hurriedly walking over from the other side. When he looked up, he felt a little awkward. “Hi, sister-in-law is off work!”

He Yi was stunned. She stopped and sized up Wen Yongxiang. “Eh, what happened to Second Young Master Wen? Your face is bruised and swollen.”

Wen Yongxiang touched the redness on his face and smiled embarrassedly. “Your bodyguard’s temper is quite fierce!”

He Yi understood and pursed her lips. “You chased her to this place to flirt with my bodyguard?”

“I didn’t flirt!” Wen Yongxiang quickly waved his hand in denial. “How would I dare to flirt with her?” After a pause, seeing He Yi’s face full of disbelief, he explained with a bitter face, “I’m pursuing her!”

“Oh!” He Yi nodded and understood. “It seems that your method is not very popular!”

As she said this, she intended to end the conversation and go to the lounge to eat.

“Hey, sister-in-law,” Wen Yongxiang chased her and pleaded, “Help me! If You can woo that hot girl, I’ll treat you to a big meal.”

He Yi did not stop and was not interested in the big meal he promised. “Save it! I have been losing weight recently!”

“Hey! Hey!” Wen Yongxiang quickly pressed the door lock of the lounge to prevent He Yi from entering. “Sister-in-law, help me! Jinling recently placed a big order for you…”

“Don’t flatter yourself. Does that order have anything to do with you?” He Yi crossed her arms and looked disdainfully at Wen Yongxiang.

“I played a part in my big brother’s decision!” Wen Yongxiang drooled and insisted, “If I could get together with your bodyguard, it will only benefit your factory and Jinling’s continued cooperation!”

“The development of cooperation depends on mutual help, not these messy things!” He Yi glanced behind him and reminded him lightly, “If you continue to pester me, the redness on your face will be as beautiful as a peach blossom!”

“Huh?” Before Wen Yongxiang could react, he was kicked from behind and almost had a live version of his mouth gnawing mud.

Ji Xueshan kicked Wen Yongxiang away, and warned him sternly, “If you dare to pester Sister He again, I’ll beat you until you can’t get up! Also, if you dare to get someone to send some broken flowers to pollute the environment every day, I would throw them into the trash can for you! Those broken copper and iron jewelry, when you go out, turn left and look for them in the second trash can!”

Wen Yongxiang shook his head in disappointment. “What a beautiful girl. She’s so intense, it’s tormenting!”

“Get lost! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I’ll make your face blossom!” Ji Xueshan pretended to hit him.

He Yi winked at her – Be careful how you attack the second young master of the Wen family.

Ji Xueshan nodded in understanding!

Then, He Yi opened the door to the lounge, leaving the couple to flirt with each other.

Xueshan was not bad, much better than Wei Jiameng. He Yi could not help showing a happy expression, feeling more or less relieved. Second young Master Wen was just like Fang Yu, an out-and-out flower butterfly. She doubted how long his love would last.

Facing second young master Wen’s crazy pursuit, Ji Xueshan was not moved at all, she even hated him deeply. What did this mean?

He Yi suddenly thought of something and her clear eyes flashed. Was there someone else in Xueshan’s heart, which was why she looked down on and could not tolerate the romantic second young Master Wen?

*

It was almost the wedding date! After the elders of the Yi family discussed this, they decided to temporarily cancel the wedding and sent someone to call Yi Liangze home to discuss this matter.

Yi Liangze did not decline. After he was done with the company’s matters, he immediately rushed home.

The elders of the Yi family were all present, and their expressions were somewhat solemn.

After sitting down, Yi Liangze pushed aside the tea brought over by the servants and announced bluntly, “The wedding will be held as scheduled. If I do not receive the blessings of the family, I can change it to a wedding in splendid Washington.”

Seeing Yi Liangze’s firm attitude, there was no room for discussion. The elders of the Yi family realized that no one could change his decision.

Yi Jingye’s face was gloomy, he scolded, “You’re too willful! You’re only thinking about yourself. Why don’t you consider the reputation and face of the Yi family, as well as the safety and feelings of your second Aunt and Yang Yang? He Yi is the suspect in the poisoning case. I won’t allow her to marry into the family until the real culprit is found and she hasn’t been cleared of suspicion!”

“Dad, did you hear what I said just now?” Yi Liangze seemed to be a little surprised. “I’m the one who wants to marry er Yi. I believe that she didn’t poison him, and I won’t delay the auspicious time with her just because you are waiting to find out the real culprit! I can understand the second Aunt’s feelings. If she objects, she doesn’t have to attend the wedding! Any of you who disapprove of the wedding don’t have to attend!”

“You…” Yi Jingye was about to faint from anger. “Is this rebellion?”

“I’m an adult, I know what I’m doing!” Yi Liangze’s expression was cold, there was no room for negotiation.

Su Yuzhi immediately cried, feeling extremely wronged. “Is he forcing us to leave? For that woman with ulterior motives? Is he preparing to make an enemy out of the entire family?”

Old Lady Yi glared at her and frowned. “Second daughter-in-law, stop shouting. My head hurts.”

Yi Xianzong quickly advised his wife, “Mother has just been discharged from the hospital. She needs some peace!”

Su Yuzhi choked with sobs. “If we have to let He Yi in, how can there be any peace in our family? Every time she comes to our house, a disaster will happen. The children will not have a moment of peace! I’m so afraid…”

In the end, Fang Yaqin tried to smooth things over. “Forget it. The wedding date has been set long ago. Going back on your word at the last minute will not be good for our Yi family’s reputation, so there’s no need to change it. Why don’t we listen to Liangze and hold the wedding in Jinxiu Hua Ting? The second daughter-in-law doesn’t have to attend the wedding. It’s better to be out of sight than out of mind! If there’s nothing special after the wedding, He Yi doesn’t have to come back! This is the decision I made after discussing it with Jingye!”

Elder Yi felt a little remorseful. “I’ve been looking forward to this for so many years. It’s not easy for us to have a family reunion, and we still can’t live together…”

“It’s fine. When we find the real murderer, or when the second daughter-in-law’s anger subsides, we’ll let He Yi come back!” Elder Yi could only agree to this for the time being.

Su Yuzhi said sadly, “It’s not that I can’t tolerate He Yi, but she always makes our family restless… if Liangze is to marry her, then I can’t stop her. It’s not that I’m too narrow-minded and can’t tolerate others! Let’s forget it, why do I have to be such a bad person? As long as we don’t live together after marriage, the conflicts will naturally be reduced!”

In other words, she also tacitly approved of He Yi and Yi Liangze’s wedding but also agreed with Fang Yaqin and Yi Jingye’s proposal for He Yi not to live in Huaxi park after marriage.
