Chapter 126

In bed. She tried her best to keep her eyes wide open, but she still could not hold back her tears. She did not know why she was crying, she only felt that after this decision was made, something had been put down completely. It was as if something heavy had been squeezed down as well. It pressed down.

Since she was young, she had always thought that she was just an ordinary girl with an ordinary appearance. Even if her knowledge was slightly better than ordinary people, she was still mediocre in the famous university she studied in. She grew up in the so-called Wealthy Class, but she was just like a clump of weeds that silently saved her life.

It was only because she was a girl who could not affect the overall situation that she was able to live on with her last breath. However, because of her existence, she constantly reminded Big Aunt of her failure, so in places where her father could not see, she endured countless humiliation.

Endure. Endure when she was young. Endure when she grows up. Endure when she gets married. Endure when she gets divorced. She had already become accustomed to tolerating. And when would she dare to live a good day for herself?

The civil servant surnamed Fang looked very ordinary. He belonged to the type that no one would pay attention to when walking amongst the crowd.

However, his work was not bad, and he had not been able to find anyone to meet up with. Knowing that he had just finished lunch with Jing, he finally understood the reason. This person was very dull and boring.

If it was just this alone, it didn't matter. After all, his condition was considered average in this city, and being dull and boring wasn't a big problem. But Jingwen's sharp senses made people feel a sense of oppression and unspeakable discomfort when she was with this man.

However, it was clear that her mother was extremely satisfied with this man called Fang Jin. When she found out that he was going to the restroom, she immediately saw her mother passionately bringing him food and paper towels, and although that man seemed too pedantic, he wasn't a person who didn't know etiquette. When she looked at him from afar, her mother's hopeful expression made her heart sour, and she slowly lowered her head to wash her hands and walked out.

If he would marry her, she would.

After dinner, he asked for a pot of tea. Because it was a meeting his mother proposed, they were the ones treating this time. This pot of Jade Spring was not cheap, but his mother didn't even blink as she took a small porcelain cup and sat there quietly with her eyes lowered.

"Auntie Song." Fang Jin suddenly opened her mouth, and in the next moment, he heard him speak. He could not help but become startled, she put down his cup, and looked at the man in front of his, only to see that Fang Zheng was looking at her, his eyes were cloudy, and although his gaze was for a short moment, Jing Zhi felt uncomfortable.

He took the cup in front of him and lowered his long eyelashes. Only then did he hear the man's voice, "Auntie Song, if you have no objections, let's settle things. I think Jingzhi is a good girl. I'm not young anymore …"

"Aiya, this is such a good relationship. According to what I've said, it's already the end of the year. Why don't you guys book it first and arrange a marriage after the new year? What do you think?"

Song Rumei's eyes suddenly lit up, and said happily.

Fang Jin nodded and replied: "Alright, then auntie, look at the betrothal gift …"

She clenched her teacup, and her face paled. She bit her lips involuntarily, and her heart felt like it was being held by someone else. She tightened her grip, and by the time she could feel that she couldn't breathe, it was already too late …

Her fate had been decided with just a few words. What was even more laughable was that she didn't want to resist at all.

Hearing him say that, Song Rumei seemed to have made up her mind, and straightforwardly said: "Xiao Fang, as long as you stay and listen, there's no need to care about the betrothal gift."

Hearing her say that, Fang Jin anxiously said: "Auntie, that won't do, how about this, you see, I just bought a house and have to pay off the mortgage, I don't have much on me, other than the engagement jewelry, I'll give you twenty thousand dollars first."

"If you don't have enough money, you can forget about it. In the future, we'll be family. If you give the gift money to Jingzhi, you'll have to bring it back …"

"That's what I said, but etiquette cannot be wasted. Auntie, why don't you give me ten thousand first? Anyways, after we get married, won't mine be hers as well?" Fang Jin seemed to have become lively at the moment, after hearing his words, he could not help but feel unexplainable disgust, at times it was dull, at other times it was smooth talking, and the words were pleasant to hear, but without showing it, he dropped the price to ten thousand, not because he was greedy, but because of his method of handling things, it was just that he did not have any good feelings towards others.

"Alright!" Kid, you are sincere, but you are too formal! It's really her fortune to be married to you! " However, Song Rumei was extremely happy, seeing such a huge matter, she was actually able to make up her mind in such a short time, she felt unspeakably carefree, and when she paid the bill, she did not feel the pain anymore.

It was only when the three of them said their goodbyes and Jingzhi and her mother had left for a long distance that she felt the anger in her heart had slightly dissipated.

Song Rumei was in high spirits, she straightened her back and turned to look at Quiet And Steadfast who had a wooden face. She could not help but be displeased: "Know, what's your impression of Xiao Fang?"

Quiet And Steadfast said in a muffled voice, "Just do that, Mom. As long as you're satisfied."
