The Time-Limited Love and Marriage
Chapter 121

Chapter 121: Chapter 121

"Your dad is simply unbelievable, forcing us to make such a choice." As soon as Yu Man entered the room, she couldn’t control her emotions and burst into curse.

Jiang Guosheng also harbored grievances: "If you hadn’t provoked Jiang Moxi in front of him, would this have happened?"

"Jiang Guosheng, can you stop blaming me for everything? Don’t you know what kind of person your dad is? He definitely had planned this long ago, otherwise he wouldn’t have kept urging us to call Moxi over last night!"

Yu Man’s outcry left Jiang Guosheng with no choice but to heavily sigh.

Indeed, as Yu Man said, Jiang Tairan was that kind of cunning old fox.

Especially after the Jiang Family made their fortune, his scheming became even more evident.

If he had no premeditated plans for Jiang Moxi, he absolutely wouldn’t have intentionally called several times during gatherings, insisting they invite Jiang Moxi over.

So just as Yu Man had said, even if she hadn’t picked on Jiang Moxi at the old mansion today, Jiang Tairan would still proceed with his plan.

Jiang Weiwei was holding two cups of hot milk, quietly listening through the slightly ajar door to the conversation inside.

Actually, after the ancestral worship ceremony when Jiang Tairan asked to talk to them, Jiang Weiwei had guessed that Jiang Tairan definitely had some decision in mind.

But hearing them continuously mention Jiang Moxi, she thought this matter was only related to Jiang Moxi, and was about to knock and deliver the milk to warm them up.

However, at that moment, Yu Man said, "Bu Xin has some nerve, daring to fancy our Weiwei."

Thus, Jiang Weiwei’s hand, which was about to push the door, paused, and her eyes slightly narrowed.

"He is relying on the fact that the moat area is in the Bu Family’s hands," said Jiang Guosheng.

"But I won’t agree to trade Weiwei."

Yu Man’s confident tone made Jiang Guosheng frown: "So, you really decided to marry Moxi to Bu Xin?"

"I, I don’t know," Yu Man immediately became uncertain again and started to curse.

"Your dad precisely targets us because he thinks we are easy to bully, otherwise why doesn’t he focus on Yuqing or Sibei..."

Yu Man’s scolding continued, but Jiang Weiwei had roughly understood from the pair’s conversation that Jiang Tairan was forcing them to choose between her and Jiang Moxi, to marry off to Bu Xin.

Bu Xin?

She remembered seeing him once at a charity gala, decent looking, but his smile was bone-chilling.

It was said that he had caused his ex-wife to become a Fourth-level Disability due to domestic violence.

Such a man, how could he be worthy of her, Jiang Weiwei?

Simply a toad lusting after a swan’s flesh!

He’s more or less a match for Jiang Moxi!

She really didn’t understand what Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man were hesitating about!

Could it be, besides that face, Jiang Moxi has something else better than her?

Even if they hesitated, she would soon force them to make a choice between her and Jiang Moxi.

Two days later, Night Color—

Jiang Moxi pushed open the ninth-floor private room door and saw Fu Youhan.

This was the first encounter between Jiang Moxi and Fu Youhan after two days.

That day, after Fu Youhan asked if Jiang Moxi wanted to meet Jhiang Heting and was refused, he hadn’t appeared either at Night Color or Tianqin Bay, nor had he contacted her.

Because of Yu Dingding’s words, Jiang Moxi also began to fear that she might have fallen in love with him, and tried hard to restrain herself from seeking him out, wanting to pull back at the last moment.

It was like two children in a standoff, neither willing to bow first, both wanting to see who would give in and take that step forward.

Even now, as their eyes met, Fu Youhan didn’t gesture for Jiang Moxi to come over to him as he usually would, his gaze was just deep and as cold as frost.

Jiang Moxi also just exchanged a brief glance before carrying her drink over to where Yu Dingding and Ye Chen were.

"How are you feeling today?" Jiang Moxi greeted Yu Dingding while pouring a drink.

"Not bad, since I can’t resist, I might as well go with the flow."

Yu Dingding felt that struggling against fate was truly exhausting, so she wanted to try going along with it.

Jiang Moxi roughly understood her meaning and quite supported Yu Dingding in giving it a try.

After all, Ye Chen gave Jiang Moxi the impression that he cared a lot about Yu Dingding.

So even if the two can’t make it to the end together, Ye Chen would look out for Yu Dingding for the rest of her life based on their past relationship.

While Jiang Moxi was zoning out, Yu Dingding asked her:

"What about you? I feel like this private room comes with its own air-conditioning effect today!"

Jiang Moxi knew Yu Dingding was asking about her and Fu Youhan, she replied with a light smile: "I don’t have a romantic story here, just a car accident."

As Jiang Moxi’s words fell, Yu Dingding’s beautiful eyes also showed a hint of confusion.

She had really thought before that Jiang Moxi and Fu Youhan’s interactions seemed like a love story, how could it suddenly turn into an accident?

Ye Chen then glanced at Fu Youhan, his grin showing unknown schadenfreude.

Fu Youhan’s gaze was clearly fixed on Jiang Moxi, his eyes deep and inscrutable.

Just as he was about to speak, Chi Jing suddenly pushed the door open.

"Something wrong?" Fu Youhan’s voice was cold as frost, clearly displeased with Chi Jing’s appearance at this time.

"Miss An apparently got wind of your presence here at Night Color, and she’s now downstairs insisting on thanking you in person."

Chi Jing leaned close to Fu Youhan, lowering his voice slightly, clearly not wanting to cause any misunderstandings between Fu Youhan and Jiang Moxi.

As long as Fu Youhan gave him a clear instruction to reject An Xueluo, today’s matter could be perfectly resolved.

Yet, what Chi Jing never expected was that Fu Youhan actually replied, "Let her come up directly."

"Ah?" For a moment, Chi Jing forgot his words, staring at Fu Youhan in astonishment.

But he saw those pair of pitch-black and profound eyes, coldly gazing at Jiang Moxi.

Perhaps because Chi Jing didn’t respond for a long while, Fu Youhan suddenly turned back to him, his eyes harboring a hint of dangerous light.

"Do you have an objection?"

"No!" How could Chi Jing dare to object?

An Xueluo and Jiang Moxi aren’t his women!

Since Fu Youhan wasn’t worried about these two women meeting and causing a scene, Chi Jing had nothing to worry about either.

So he quickly replied, "I’ll bring Miss An up right away."

Then, Chi Jing hurriedly left.

Once Chi Jing left, Ye Chen, possessed by the God of Gossip, asked Fu Youhan with a sly face, "Who is Miss An?"

"A friend," Fu Youhan lit a cigarette, and soon smoke swirled around him making his distinctively handsome face appear somewhat ethereal.

"The kind that makes our Assistant Chi personally fetch her, must not be a simple relationship, huh?"

Ye Chen teased Fu Youhan, not forgetting to subtly observe Jiang Moxi.

But Jiang Moxi’s beautiful face remained calm, she didn’t even look up to see them, continuing her work.

While Yu Dingding narrowed her eyes slightly, assessing Fu Youhan.

Seeing Fu Youhan lazily smoking one cigarette after another, seemingly relaxed and aside from a brief glance at Jiang Moxi earlier, no other reactions.

At that moment, Chi Jing pushed open the private room, leading a beautiful lady with an elegant demeanor into the room...
