Chapter 716 Confession 2
If she got together with Brother He, she would want more, as that’s just human nature; once you have something, you don’t want to lose it. She wasn’t a saint; she didn’t possess such a generous mindset.
If Brother He broke up with her in the future, she would be very hurt. Therefore, not starting at all was the best choice.
He Nan frowned slightly, "We won’t break up."
His tone was very firm, "The things you mentioned aren’t problems. My marriage is my own business; no one can force me to marry someone I don’t want to. I will buy another house in the future, and we won’t have to live with the elders after getting married. As long as I’m here, no one can bully you."
Respecting elders doesn’t mean blindly following them. He Nan had always been a person of conviction, clearly understanding when to compromise and when not to.
His wife would be his, not someone married for the sake of his family. Therefore, He Nan didn’t think that marrying Shen Mianmian meant she had to win the affection of everyone or be subservient to his family members.
Seeing the serious determination in his eyes, Shen Mianmian almost wavered, "Brother He, if we get together, what about Miss Cheng? What if Brother Ruan’s sister finds someone, then what about Miss Ruan? Don’t your families have a marriage arrangement?"
"Whoever made it can go marry her." He Nan answered crisply. He never cared about those things because from the moment he understood the meaning of marriage, he never thought about marrying Cheng Xining.
