67: Chapter 64 Going Home_2 67: Chapter 64 Going Home_2 Hongying, decent people don’t act secretively.
Can you dare to tell the truth straight?”
“The truth is, I originally didn’t like your brother, but ever since I was sensible, I’ve admired soldiers.
What I wanted most was to marry
Regarding family background, your family is top-notch in the village.
Regarding character, your brother doesn’t have any ill intentions.
Uncle Gangshun and Fat Aunt,
are also decent people.
As for you, other than your fiery temper, you don’t have any other bad habits.”
Moreover, your family has only your brother as a son; there’s no issue of dealing with co-wives.
So, marrying your brother
counts as a top choice.”
I’m not young anymore, and it’s time to consider my lifelong matters.
As for liking or not liking, does it matter?
for a long time, one naturally grows fond.”
Zhong Hongying’s argument didn’t seem to have any flaws, but still, something felt off, and Luo Xiaoqiong frowned, a face full of conflict.
“Based on what you’ve said, you should have a hopeful attitude toward this marriage.
But why does it feel like
you’re always trying to provoke Xiaoqiong’s anger?
You can’t possibly be unaware of Xiaoqiong’s position in Fat Aunt and Uncle Gangshun’s hearts.
What good does it do to make your sister-in-law dislike you?”
“Lin Chuxia, if it were you, would you want your sister-in-law to be especially nice to a love rival?”
“Oh?” Chuxia chuckled as she regarded Luo Xiaoqiong, “It sounds like you care quite a bit about my presence?”
“Of course, after all, you were the person Luo Hongqi’s parents preferred.
You were nearly engaged to Luo Hongqi.
No matter the final outcome,
the fact that you were once my rival cannot be denied.”
“Earlier you said, you knew that Luo Hongqi and I dislike each other, and being with him amounted to rescuing me.
how has it turned out that I am your love rival?”
Zhong Hongying’s expression became slightly unnatural: “This isn’t contradictory.
Your mutual dislike only means he wouldn’t choose you,
not that his family wouldn’t choose you.
I’ve said, people together for a long time naturally develop feelings.
If in the end he follows his family’s wishes, then,
the one marrying him could be you, not me.
In that case, aren’t you my rival?”
“That’s an eye-opener.” Chuxia laughed as she shook her head, “Why does it feel like you’ve agreed to something with someone else, intentionally
trying to break me and him up, yet you yourself do not want to marry him, thus using this method to deal with his family?”
“You’re overthinking…” Zhong Hongying gave a faint smile, “You really are overthinking.
Anyway, arguing more with you now
won’t change your way of thinking, so I won’t say more.” She quickened her pace, stepping ahead to Luo Xiaoqiong’s house.
“Chuxia, you’re too clever…” The moment Zhong Hongying’s figure vanished, Luo Xiaoqiong slapped Chuxia’s back hard, “I knew something was off, and now I understand what it was.
She must have accepted some benefit from the Xue family, deliberately seducing my brother.
The aim is to make my brother cancel the engagement with you, then, the Xue family could legitimately pressure you, and the day Xue Guohong succeeds, she’d surely break up with my brother!”
“The benefit is the military enrollment quota.”
Luo Xiaoqiong stared at Chuxia in astonishment, “You thought of that too?”
“She said her greatest admiration is for soldiers.
Rather than marrying a soldier, why not become one herself?
Considering how hard she works, you should know that her ambitions aren’t ordinary.”
“This woman, so disgusting.
I wondered why she thought of marrying into our family yet treated me so poorly.
she harbored these intentions.
No, I must write to my brother tonight, he can’t be deceived by that woman any longer.”
“Will it work?” Chuxia eyed her lightly, “Do you think your brother would listen to you?”
“That’s also true.” Luo Xiaoqiong’s face fell, “So what do I do, just watch as my brother jumps into a pit?”
“Write to him, make your words more sincere.
Whether or not your brother listens, you must at least do your part.”
“Is there a more permanent solution?” Luo Xiaoqiong pouted, her face convoluted, “Why bother writing if it doesn’t change my brother’s mind.”
“The effort still needs to be made; he’s your real brother.
If you don’t do your best, won’t you regret it later?”
“Ugh…” Luo Xiaoqiong glared at Chuxia resentfully.
Was this truly her friend?
Why did she feel like Chuxia was enjoying this too much?
“Don’t glare at me like that.
Right now, your brother has completely fallen into his own concept of happiness,
and your relationship with Zhong Hongying isn’t great.
So whatever you say, he won’t believe.
But you still must try, at least — consider it a vaccine for your brother in advance.
If one day he does get hurt, he might think,
‘I should listen to my sister more; she cares about me more than anyone else.'”
“Pah!” Luo Xiaoqiong spat, “Do I care if he listens to me?
“But he’s my real brother.”
“Annoying, can’t you give some constructive advice?”
“Can’t do, matters of the heart have no constructive advice.
Only through experience can one truly understand.
Pain isn’t always bad,
it helps you mature.”
“Ha…” Luo Xiaoqiong gave Chuxia an incredulous look, “Please, can you not be so pretentiously profound?
It sounds like you know so much about relationships.”
Chuxia chuckled: “At least more than you.
“No way?” Luo Xiaoqiong hastily grabbed Chuxia’s sleeve, “My mom said a good woman fears a persistent suitor.
Don’t tell me you’ve really fallen for Xue Guohong.”
