Chapter 63 - It was impossible to get married
Chapter 63: 63. It was impossible to get married
Yi Liangze only showed the video to Wan Wan, but He Yi, who was beside her, also saw it.
It was extremely dangerous for “Internet celebrity” Su Anqi to appear in any public place, not to mention that there were so many media reporters at the reception. When they found out that the child abuse protagonist was there, they naturally wanted the world to be in turmoil, the bigger the commotion, the higher the value of the news.
When Su Anqi’s wall fell, everyone pushed her down. Following that, they beat her up. Everyone rushed to trample on her to show their righteous stance.
When Su Anqi fell to the ground and was trampled by the angry crowd, He Yi turned off the video and returned the phone to Yi Liangze.
“If this continues, if no one stops her, she might either die or be crippled. The banquet is your place after all. If something happens here, you won’t be able to escape responsibility,” He Yi reminded him lightly.
Yi Liangze admired He Yi’s calmness and thoughtfulness. At this moment, he didn’t clap his hands in satisfaction, but quickly realized the consequences. It was clear that she was thinking for him. He curved his lips slightly and said confidently, “The law doesn’t punish the masses, not to mention that this woman should be beaten up for offending the masses!” After saying that, he saw that He Yi’s expression was still grave, and smiled faintly. “Don’t worry, Qi Lin is watching from the side. He won’t let anyone beat her to death.”
If Su Anqi died, wouldn’t that be letting Chu Tianyi off easy? He wouldn’t give his love rival a good chance to get rid of his wife and return to being single.
He Yi paused. She couldn’t hold it in anymore. “Even if you don’t take responsibility for this, but...she’s still a member of the Yi family. If something happens at the banquet, your family will blame you for not taking good care of her.”
“It’s not my responsibility to take care of her.” Yi Liangze took out a cigarette. He remembered that He Yi hated the smell of smoke, so he didn’t light it up. He only placed it on the tip of his nose and gently sniffed it. “Wan Wan has been abused and bullied by her since she was young. This is the result she deserves.”

Su Anqi was beaten up. It was unknown whether she was alive or dead. However, He Yi wasn’t very happy. On the contrary, countless mysteries surged into her heart, causing her to be puzzled.
What happened to Yi Liangze. Not only did he give her all his help, he even abused Su Anqi for Wan Wan’s sake.
He Yi still remembered when he mentioned that this was what Su Anqi deserved, the sharpness in his eyes made people shudder. It was like a lion protecting its cub and mercilessly biting the intruder who threatened its child to death — as if Wan Wan was his flesh and blood.
The car stopped in front of a beautiful European-style villa. The four of them got out of the car. Xiao Chi went to the garage next door to park the car. Yi Liangze took out his smart key and pressed it and a click sounded.
The door opened and the lights lit up. The 25-degree temperature setting was activated, the humidity was adjusted, and soft background music started playing. The television came on, water dispensers automatically turned on, and the bathtub automatically filled up with hot water... Everything was ready, waiting for the return of the owner.
This was a smart villa. All the electrical appliances could be remotely operated, so the living experience was naturally more convenient and comfortable than a traditional villa.
He Yi was stunned. She did not know why Yi Liangze brought them here.
They walked up the steps and entered the villa. Inside it was elegant, luxurious European-styled with a modern twist. It satisfied the aesthetic feeling of the fashion, but at the same time, the sense of comfort was also very good.
“What do you think of this house?” Yi Liangze smiled, as he took He Yi and the two children on a tour of the residence.
He Yi’s mind was filled with alarm bells. She realized what Yi Liangze was trying to do. “I have to live in an office building now. The factory that just opened has a lot of work to do...”
“We need a wedding house at least.” Yi Liangze stopped and looked at He Yi. “We can’t have our wedding night in your office building on our wedding day.”
“...” He Yi was flustered. She was now really confused by him.
Just now, she thought that she had seen through his intention — to buy a luxurious house to hide his mistress in. But now, he was bringing up the wedding again, as if it was something real.
Calming her mind.., He Yi decided to start fighting back. “I heard that the two elders of the Yi family especially enjoy the happiness of having children and grandchildren. A large family of more than ten people lives in Huaxi Park in the military region. It’s bustling with children and grandchildren. We should follow the wishes of the two elders and live in Huaxi Park when we get married. How can we go against the family tradition and move out to live?”
This time, it was Yi Liangze who was surprised. “You like living together with a large family? I thought that moving out would be more peaceful. Since you like it, then it doesn’t matter where you live.”
He did not argue with her on this issue.
He Yi followed Yi Liangze’s footsteps and continued to tour the villa. After some silence, he took a deep breath and asked with a sweet smile, “I’ve given you the ring and the Roses. I’ve also bought a new house. When are we going to hold the wedding?”
Initially, she did not want to provoke him, but he was pushing his luck. He was getting more and more presumptuous. Since he was so keen on “Getting married,” she might as well seriously “Discuss” with him.
Yi Liangze looked sideways. “We’re not engaged yet. If you’re in a hurry, we can hold the engagement ceremony and the wedding ceremony together.”
He Yi smiled instead of getting angry. “Okay!” Her voice was unbelievably soft. “When is the set date?”
“This...” Yi Liangze touched his chin and thought seriously. “Grandma originally planned to ask the great immortal to look up a golden auspicious date. But if you’re in a hurry, it’s better to choose a date. It’s up to you.”
This “It’s up to you” thoroughly provoked He Yi’s temper. Her smile became even more gentle. “We’re all people with children. The wedding is just a formality. There’s no need to be too grand. However, it’s not convenient to omit the necessary procedures. After all, the Yi family is prestigious. We have to live up to our reputation. How about this? The ninth day of next month will be a good day. A month is enough to prepare. After the wedding, it’s better to stay in Huaxi Park temporarily to look after the elderly. After the honeymoon, we can then move into this house. What do you think of my arrangements?”

It was already very late when He Yi returned to the office building of the Leather Factory. He Yi was physically and mentally exhausted, so she forced herself to help Wan Wan take a bath. Then, she warmed up the milk for her and sent it into the small bedroom.
“Good night, baby.” He Yi lovingly patted Wan Wan’s little head, ready to help her turn off the lights.
“Mom,” Wan Wan hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, “Mom, are you going to marry Uncle Yi?”
He Yi rubbed her forehead, trying her best to be patient. She answered with a pleasant face, “Uncle Yi is just playing with mom, or maybe it’s a moment of passion. We can’t get married.”
“Oh.” Wan Wan was relieved, and hope flashed in her big eyes. “If Aunt Su is killed, dad will come to pick us up, right?”
“...” He Yi realized that Wan Wan’s cold and almost distant personality was caused by the cold environment she grew up in.
When Yi Liangze played the video of Su Anqi being beaten up. He Yi was afraid that Wan Wan would be scared, so he took the video away. However, she didn’t expect that Wan Wan wouldn’t be scared by the scene of the group beating. Instead, she hoped that Su Anqi would die.
After a long silence, He Yi smiled. “Before he comes to his senses, we still have to live our own lives, okay?”
“Okay, Mom!” The girl lay down contentedly, closed her eyes, and smiled sweetly.
This night, she was destined to have sweet dreams.
