Chapter 429 Yes, I'm Getting Married
She caught a glimpse of Wen Qingqing's red eyes, and hurriedly hugged her, whispering, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
When Wen Qingqing saw Ning Xi coming, she quickly wiped away her tears, pulled a smile from the corner of her mouth, and said softly: "Mom is fine, don't worry."
"Mom, do you think I will believe it? Mom, tell me what's going on?"
Ning Xi held Wen Qingqing's arm and kept asking without giving up.
Wen Qingqing couldn't resist and sighed earnestly, "I was chatting with your grandmother today and we talked about relationships. Suddenly I realized that the relationship between the three of us is not going well... Then..."
Ning Xi was very attentive and caught the key points immediately.
Although everyone kept the old lady's health condition a secret, she had lived to such an old age, and had seen all sorts of storms and waves. She had already seen through this little trick.
I’m just afraid of the younger generation in my family…that’s why I’ve been pretending not to know.
She said this now simply because she wanted to see her mother and her have a good ending before she died.
Ning Xi said softly, "Mom, don't cry. If grandma finds out that your eyes are swollen, she will get suspicious."
Wen Qingqing closed her eyes and suppressed the emotions in her eyes: "Mom knows."
Suddenly, Ning Xi had a flash of inspiration and an idea came to her mind.
She took out her cell phone and planned to call He Zhao.
"Xiao Xi."
When Ning Xi heard He Zhao's voice, she suddenly remembered her time with Gu Huaijing last night, and her tone became a little unnatural.
"I...didn't disturb you?"
Hearing her tone, He Zhao suddenly felt something was strange.
"Xiao Xi, did something happen?"
Ning Xi thought for a while after hearing this, and said seriously: "Well, there is something important I want to discuss with you."
Since she said so... He Zhao touched his chin and said solemnly: "Then let's talk when I get back."
After hanging up the phone, he said goodbye to Mr. Kongshan and hurried to the airport.
In the afternoon, He Zhao arrived in City A and contacted Ning Xi immediately and made an appointment to meet at a restaurant.
After the two sat down, Ning Xi slowly explained the carefully prepared plan, and He Zhao listened attentively, nodding his head from time to time to show his agreement.
As the topic deepened, the atmosphere in the restaurant gradually became solemn.
She stared closely at every subtle expression of He Zhao, trying to capture the waves in his heart.
However, unexpectedly, he froze in place, his voice trembling in a rare way: "You...you mean...really?"
He excitedly grabbed Ning Xi's hand and grinned, "Are you kidding?"
Ning Xi was a little surprised to see him like this.
"Calm down, this is just a plan. Besides, it's not certain whether your family members agree or not, especially Madam He."
After all... Ning Xi will have to live with Lu Ruoxing in the future, and the He family may not accept it.
"What's so difficult about this? I can just accept it, right?" He Zhao interrupted her eagerly, fearing that she would back down. Ning Xi was surprised: "You really don't mind?"
He Zhao was afraid that Ning Xi would overthink it, so he quickly shook his head.
"No, don't worry, we must carry out this plan to the end."
There is a hidden selfishness in his heart, and he is content with it even if all this is just an illusion.
Ning Xi was moved by He Zhao's determination and said sincerely, "Thank you."
Just as the two were about to leave, a man in a baseball cap appeared quietly, with the camera in his hand flashing a cold light.
The corner of his mouth curled up into an obscene smile: "Once this news comes out, won't the traffic be easily obtained?" On the other side, in the old house of the He family, the atmosphere was solemn.
As soon as He Zhao returned home, he gathered all the members of the He family.
As soon as everyone arrived, He Zhao announced his marriage to Ning Xi, which shocked everyone.
Madam He frowned, obviously holding a grudge against Ning Xi's past. However, He Zhao was determined and did not hesitate to bring up Madam Wen's wish to win her support.
"I know you have some opinions about Ning Xi, but what happened between her and Gu Huaijing is over, and the child is not her biological child. Moreover... this is also the wish of Old Madam Wen, who is now seriously ill..."
However, even though He Zhao's saliva was almost dry from talking, Old Madam He remained unmoved.
"Grandma, this is the decision made by Ning Xi and I. Please approve of it." He Zhao said this with unprecedented determination.
Madam He was silent for a moment, and finally compromised helplessly: "Since you all insist so much, I have nothing to say."
At this time, He Xintian suddenly raised her phone and said with trembling lips: "Brother...my dear brother, do you know? You are on the hot search!"
He Xintian waved the phone in front of his eyes, and He Zhao looked down. In the restaurant, he was holding Ning Xi's hand affectionately. They were very close to each other. Perhaps because the person taking the photo was skilled, it looked like he was kissing the back of Ning Xi's hand.
He Zhao thought secretly, Ning Xi was really smart. She even knew how to find someone to take photos and create topics, which would make it seem more realistic.
At the same time, Ning Xi also saw the hot searches on the Internet.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, this He Zhao's actions were too fast...
Just as she was thinking about it, Gu Huaijing called her. She was about to refuse, but accidentally pressed the answer button.
As soon as she answered the phone, she heard Gu Huaijing's voice questioning her.
"Ning Xi, why can you be so smiling and intimate with Ji Yunxu, He Zhao and the others, but be so cold to me?"
At this time, Gu Huaijing leaned against the wall, his lips tightly pursed into a straight line, his hands tightly holding the cup, and asked with restraint and forbearance, determined to get the answer he wanted.
"Are you sick? When have you ever been intimate with them? Why do you call me and question me out of nowhere?"
Gu Huaijing sneered: "What a joke? The rumors about you and He Zhao have spread online. Is this still fake? Aren't you two going to get married?!"
God knows, when he saw this trending search, he wished he could find the person who posted it and tear him into pieces.
Hearing the word "marriage" seemed to touch the sensitive spot in Ning Xi's heart. She frowned and said coldly: "Yes, I am indeed going to marry He Zhao."
