"What, you want to break off the engagement?"
Mengying looked at her daughter kneeling in front of her with a surprised look on her face, and couldn't believe her ears.
"mother!"
Meng Ji bit her lip, tears falling from the corners of her eyes to the ground: "I have someone else in my heart... Wu Jie and I can't be together..."
"Nonsense, do you know what the consequences of doing this will be? What do you think of the Wu family? Where do you put the face of our two families?" Meng Ying scolded sternly.
"Mom... I know the consequences, but I'm sorry for him now. If I marry Wu Jie again at this time, wouldn't it be..."
The words her daughter cried made Mengying feel irritated: "That's enough, I don't care what you think in your heart, but I tell you, you must sever ties with him!"
"Why!"
Meng Ji felt cold in her heart when she heard Mengying's order, "Mom, can you bear to watch your precious daughter ruin your happiness?" Then she looked at Meng Chun again: "Dad, I will only marry Meng Han in this life. .”
Mengying: "You don't want to get married, why did you agree to the Wu family's proposal of marriage in the first place? You..."
Mengying was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Meng Ji said firmly: "Father, mother, my daughter is already Meng Han's. If you really disagree, I will die in front of you."
"You..." Mengying said angrily: "Okay, then go ahead, I want to see if you have this ability!"
Mengchun: "Okay, okay, don't talk anymore. Since it has happened, let's just go back and rest first."
After speaking, he looked at Meng Ji: "Come here, lock the young lady up first. Don't let her out of the room even half a step without my permission!"
Maid: "Yes."
When Meng Ji heard her father's words, her eyes were full of despair. She stood up slowly, turned around and walked out.
Mengchun was not optimistic about Wu Jie's honesty. Wu Jie had a high understanding of cultivation, but his management of the family business was really poor. He felt that Wu Jie was not worthy of his precious daughter, and he even wanted to destroy it. The idea of a marriage.
It's just that he felt that his daughter liked Wu Jie, so he compromised like this.
After Meng Ji left the room, Meng Ying sat back on the chair and rubbed her brow: "Master, what on earth did your daughter think? She actually agreed to this marriage..."
Mengchun: "Okay, now that things have happened, I'm going to see what kind of person that boy is, so that our precious daughter is so obsessed with him. If possible, let him get married."
"But this is not good for the Wu family..."
Mengchun: "Don't worry, I will take care of the Wu family's side. It's getting late, and I should go back to the study to handle official business."
After speaking, he turned and left.
Seeing this, Mengying shook her head and sighed.
…
Wu family.
As soon as Wu Jie returned home, he was told by the servant that the head of the family summoned him to the meeting hall.
Wu Jie did not dare to delay and hurried to the meeting hall.
Inside the meeting hall.
Father Wu looked at his son: "My father promised you about breaking off the engagement, but I still need to know one more thing. Is it time for you to tell your family about this?"
Wu Jie frowned: "Father, what do you want to ask?"
Father Wu: "What happened to you and Meng Ji? Why did you suddenly break off the engagement?"
Wu Jie was silent for a while after hearing this: "Father, it is indeed impossible for Meng Ji and I to be together again."
Wu's father was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect Wu Jie to say such words. He calmed down and said, "Who is that boy you brought Mengji to see?"
Wu Jie sighed: "He is her sweetheart."
Father Wu laughed angrily: "Sweetheart? Tell me how old you are, and you still talk about your sweetheart. You have really embarrassed our Wu family."
Wu Jie: "Dad, Meng Ji has him in her heart."
Father Wu: "Since you know that she has someone else in mind, why do you still propose marriage? After proposing marriage, you also take her to call him. You are almost putting me in shame."
Wu Jie knelt down and said, "Dad, Meng Ji has someone in mind. Wu Jie also has to be responsible for a girl. I will solve Meng Ji's matter myself."
Father Wu: "Okay, okay, I understand everything. Meng Ji will blame you first and break off the engagement later. Our two families are even." After a pause: "The people from Meng Mansion are coming to admit their mistakes. We Why don’t you make things difficult for them? After all, no one can change this kind of thing. Okay, okay, get up.”
Wu Jie stood up.
Mother Wu said: "Didn't you say you are responsible for a girl? If you have time, bring her back to your father and me."
Wu Jie: "Her name is Lu Wan, and her family is in the grape business. The child drank wine that day, so..."
"Okay, okay, stop talking. Let's settle the matter in Meng Mansion first before talking about anything else. The most important thing now is to save the face of our two families. We are businessmen and can't compare with Meng Mansion, but no On behalf of our Wu family, we are afraid of them and must handle this matter in a low-key manner."
"I understand, kid, please leave." Wu Jie nodded and left the meeting hall.
Mengying and Mengrun watched Wu Jie's figure drifting away, and the expressions on their faces became more solemn.
