Chapter 109 Breakup
Chapter 109 Breakup
Shi Minghui frowned slightly: "Have I ever offended Fourth Sister?"
Ge Qiuheng already had a reason to cancel the engagement, and sneered in revenge: "Your eldest brother whipped your eldest sister-in-law, and your second sister-in-law was forced to hang herself, and you, your second brother, and your seventh brother are trying to destroy the innocence of your second sister.
Shi Minghui, how could any girl with a clear mind be willing to marry a family with such a family tradition? How can you be worthy of being called a good son-in-law?
Do you think the Shi brothers are so popular? They look beautiful on the outside but are rotten inside. You can only deceive those girls and people who don’t know much about the Shi family.”
Shi Minghui's face gradually darkened. "It's fine if you say that about me, but how dare you slander my brothers? Did someone say something to you that made you hate me so much?"
Yes, resentment.
Ge Qiuheng thought she had concealed it well, but when she saw Shi Minghui, all the old grudges came flooding back to her mind. No matter how hard she tried to endure it, the strong resentment in her eyes could not be concealed.
Two people flashed through Shi Minghui's mind, Shi Yao and Le Anning.
It could only be the two of them who spoke ill of him and his brothers to Ge Qiuheng.
Ge Qiuheng simply gave up and sneered, "Do you need others to tell your family about your family's affairs? Scandals have been one after another, and when one is suppressed, another one arises. It has already been known to everyone in the capital, women and children.
No wonder you knew I was interested in you, but you delayed the engagement and deliberately kept the Ge family a secret. My father worked hard to teach you martial arts and tactics, but the other day you took the opportunity to force my father to drink and coax him into accepting the marriage. You were afraid that your eldest brother and his wife's scandal would get out and my family would stay away from you!"
Shi Minghui clenched his fists quietly. After all, he was just a young man, how could he bear such humiliation? Ge Qiuheng said clearly that the Shi family was a marriage fraud.
"Ge Si, I don't need you! Don't try to make a fuss. You'll regret it later. Marriage is a serious matter. If you want to cancel the engagement, go and talk to the Marquis and his wife, and they will talk to my father and mother. I didn't ask you for this marriage."
The implication is that marrying him has always been what Ge Qiuheng wanted.
Ge Qiuheng was so humiliated that she almost cried, for all those years of blindness, and for her two children who had never seen the world.
She trembled slightly, clenched her fists tightly, and nodded: "Since you and I have no intention of each other, you don't like me, and I don't like you, there is no need to get married. Let's go, let's go and call your mother, your father, and my mother to cancel the marriage.
Fortunately, the engagement was only verbally confirmed and a token of love was exchanged. We were not named, and we did not exchange engagement cards or ask for a matchmaker. It is convenient to cancel the engagement."
Her words were not without sarcasm.
It was as if she was afraid that the Shi family would shamelessly rely on her.
Seeing that his face looked extremely ugly, Ge Qiuheng felt a little relieved and turned to leave, but Shi Minghui grabbed her arm.
Shi Minghui pulled her hard, and she fell in front of him in a mess, with her forehead hitting his chest.
She stepped back in a hurry, but her wrist felt as if it was clamped by an iron clamp and she couldn't get it free.
"Shi Minghui, let go! It's so shameless to pull and tug in broad daylight!" Ge Qiuheng, who understood the meaning of every look in his eyes, panicked, fearing that he would do something in broad daylight, and said angrily, "If you dare to destroy my reputation, I will hit my head against the gate of the Zhenguo Mansion and die!"
There was a hint of cruelty in Shi Minghui's eyes, but after hearing that, he slowly loosened his grip and relaxed his expression.
Ge Qiuheng quickly stepped back a few steps and looked at him warily.
Shi Minghui recalled the feeling of having the tender and beautiful woman in his arms, and threatened calmly, "If you die in front of my house, the reputations of your parents, brothers and sisters will be affected by you. Then I will have no choice but to marry your tablet and bury you in my ancestral tomb to preserve the reputations of our two families."
Ge Qiuheng was so angry!
Her eyes were red, and she said with tears and hatred: "Shi Minghui, you have no interest in me, what's the point of pestering me like this? Has your Shi family fallen to the point where you can't find a wife?"
The word "also" hurt Shi Minghui's heart.
Before this, he really thought that he had no feelings for Ge Qiuheng, and only thought that he liked Ge Qiuheng because of Zhuzhu.
The two families were close friends, so he reluctantly accepted Ge Qiuheng as his future wife.
But just now, Ge Qiuheng was determined to cancel the engagement in front of the elders. He pulled her back in panic, and then he realized his own feelings.
They have been childhood sweethearts for many years. Apart from Zhuzhu, the only woman around him is Ge Qiuheng. He has regarded her as his future wife since she was a child, and she is wholeheartedly determined to marry him. How can he not marry her?
If she doesn't marry him, who else can she marry?
When he thought of this, imagining that she had married another man and was enjoying the company of another man, he became furious and wished he could strangle Ge Qiuheng to death and bury her in his own grave immediately so that he could be buried with her when he died.
He put one hand behind his back and asked calmly, "Ge Si, who do you want to marry?"
His terrifying eyes frightened Ge Qiuheng so much that her legs trembled. She said boldly, "Who I marry is none of your business. I'd rather marry someone from the lowest class than you!"
Shi Minghui's face was calm, but his eyes were even more terrifying, as if he wanted to eat her. He approached her step by step, with great oppression.
Ge Qiuheng wanted to escape, but she was too scared. Shi Minghui had never been so terrifying in her previous life.
They had quarreled over "Shi Yao" in the early days, but Shi Minghui tamed her with ease, just like training a dog.
Later, they quarreled in the prison, and she went crazy and beat him up. He felt guilty about her, and did not fight back when she beat him or scolded him. He even hugged her and cried.
When Shi Minghui was young, he was not as cunning as he is now, and he could not completely control his emotions.
Ge Qiuheng was really scared. Shi Minghui would kill someone!
He would never allow his chosen wife to betray him!
As Shi Minghui raised his hand, Ge Qiuheng ran thousands of miles away in his imagination, but in reality he did not dare to move a step. He was exhausted physically and mentally in the past few days. He was so frightened that he rolled his eyes and fainted.
Shi Minghui: “…”
He reached out and put his arms around Ge Qiuheng's slender waist, his expression paused slightly, not understanding why she fainted.
He raised his hand, just wanting to help her put on her hood - her face was too pale, probably because of the cold wind.
He thought this action could ease the atmosphere, but unexpectedly, it frightened her to faint.
Seeing this, the maids ran over in a panic and asked, "What's wrong with the girl? Take her back to her room and ask the doctor to come!"
They were about to carry Ge Qiuheng away. Shi Minghui paused, then held her horizontally and went straight to the inner courtyard: "Send someone to get the doctor. I'll carry her faster. Someone, please lead the way for me!"
The maids stamped their feet, but they had to act according to the circumstances. This was not the time to be fussy. Besides, this man was the future son-in-law, so it was not considered to be impolite.
A long-faced maid ran to the front and said, "Eighth Master, follow me!"
