Chapter 89: Husband
Ye Yan, busy tending to patients, returned to her office and saw several missed calls on her phone.
"Ah Yan, I’m being targeted by the Devil," Meng Tian’s voice came through the phone, sounding a bit anxious, "That bastard Tang Jingyao, he actually told my parents he has liked me since we were kids and wants to marry me."
"What do your uncle and aunt think?"
"They will definitely respect my opinion, if I don’t want to marry, they won’t force me." As the cherished pearl of the Meng Family, pampered since childhood, her parents naturally wouldn’t agree to let her marry someone she didn’t love.
"Then what are you afraid of? As long as you are unwilling, your uncle and aunt won’t force you into the marriage." The Meng family wasn’t the kind to prioritize benefits over their children’s happiness.
"I know, but I’m afraid this is just the first step for Madman Tang. Next, he will definitely make other moves. If he only targeted me it would be fine, but what if he turns against my parents? They still regard him as a friend’s son and think highly of him."
"Do Uncle and Aunt not know about Jiang Ying’s issue?"
"Few people know about that matter, and Madman Tang won’t let Jiang Ying’s reputation be tarnished. I also can’t tell my parents, otherwise knowing my issues with Madman Tang will only make them worry more, and they can’t cope with him either," Meng Tian looked up at the sky, her tone melancholic. She knew Tang Jingyao wouldn’t let her off easily; she never expected him to be so sinister—to tie a woman into a sunlight-devoid marriage was undoubtedly the most vicious revenge.
"I’ll go find Fu Xingzhou," Ye Yan gripped the phone tighter.
"Don’t, don’t go," Meng Tian quickly interjected to stop her, "On one side is a good brother, on the other a wife, Mr. Fu would also find it difficult, and besides, Tang Jingyao has gone mad. He won’t listen to anyone."
