Chapter 813 430: The Other Meaning of Bride_2

Zhao Qingge interrupted rudely, "Don't use the child as an excuse. If you were truly thinking about the child, wanting to give them a normal, healthy environment to grow up in, you wouldn't have handled it like this from the start. Secondly, have you ever considered me from the beginning to the end? No!"

"You earnestly treat your desires as romance, see greed as a habit everyone has, you're so used to lying you don't even know you're doing it, and when others expose those lies, you put on an aggrieved look pretending to be a victim, talking about empathy, mutual understanding..."

"How do you have the nerve? Don't forget, you're also a father now, you can't be as shameless as before, you need to set a good example for the child!"

This criticism hit the mark, without a single profanity yet incredibly harsh, leaving Li Peifeng unable to retort, he could only bow his head over his bowl.

"Well done, that was a great scolding."

Xu Manning said with a smile, "But after scolding him, don't scold the two of us, ok?"

Wu Wenyue also chuckled, continuing to eat as if her appetite had grown.

Useless, all of them useless!

Seeing that she can't rely on her teammates, Huang Tianxuan cursed inwardly, deciding to charge forward alone:

"Old Zhao, what you're saying is unreasonable. It's precisely because of the children that we're holding this wedding. Only by doing so can the children grow up in a normal, healthy family environment. If Peifeng and I didn't hold this ceremony, we wouldn't have the proper titles, and my parents would definitely be suspicious. If they both become suspicious, over time, your relationship is bound to be exposed."

"And that would be the most irresponsible thing for the children. So don't just talk out of anger, thinking you'll make a big scene, I'm not afraid. Regardless, both options lead to dead ends, why wouldn't I hold the wedding? Let me tell you, if you agree, I'll go ahead, if you don't agree, I'll do it anyway!"

Zhao Qingge sneered, "If you're not afraid of the wedding turning into a joke, go ahead and try!"

Huang Tianxuan stared fiercely, continuing, "You've made up your mind to cause trouble, right? Back when you and Peifeng held your wedding, not one of us complained, now it's our turn and you stand out to interfere? One shouldn't be so shameless, you need to set a good example for the children! Wasn't that what someone just said?"

A classic replay!

"Exactly, exactly!"

Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning laughed heartily, saying things like, "Defeat magic with magic, just like that!" "A good move to repay in kind," the air was filled with joy with a hint of awkwardness.

Zhao Qingge slammed her chopsticks down forcefully, "I'm not eating!!"

...

The conversation ended on a sour note, as Li Peifeng expected, Zhao Qingge held firmly to her bottom line, the greatest concession being to maintain the status quo. If Li Peifeng planned to hold a grand wedding with Huang Tianxuan or Wu Meng two women, she would file for divorce and explain the truth to her parents.

The difficulty lay ahead, yet Li Peifeng wasn't afraid, but he didn't attempt to initiate a conversation with Old Zhao to persuade her to agree to his 'second marriage.' Instead, he pretended as if the whole matter hadn't happened, continuing as before to take care of the confinement period, looking after the children.

He thought if he acted too aggressively about this, constantly bringing it up to Zhao Qingge, it would certainly have a negative effect. If he didn't bring it up, but continued living as normal, being a qualified husband and an excellent father, perhaps Zhao Qingge would soften unexpectedly.

Therefore, in the time following the conversation's end, Li Peifeng behaved particularly obediently, spending his days centered around Zhao Qingge and the two children, not only rarely visiting next door but also temporarily setting aside work matters.

Of course, Zhao Qingge saw through his clumsy move, although she felt disdain in her heart, with things being this way, she thought she could have a few comfortable days, and thus didn't bring up his 'remarrying' with Huang Tianxuan.

The couple tacitly allowed the thorny problem to slip into the background, as though it didn't exist, causing Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi to worry sick.

With the agreed-upon day drawing closer, their son still hadn't resolved the matter, how could they not be anxious?

But being anxious wouldn't help; Li Peifeng feared triggering a negative effect so he didn't undertake ideological work on Zhao Qingge, and as elders, the two couldn't proactively persuade their daughter-in-law to support their son's remarriage, that would be pushing the Li family's elder daughter-in-law down a dead end.

But they couldn't just ignore the Huang family's younger daughter-in-law either, so on September 25th, under the urging of Mr. Huang, Mrs. Huang, and Huang Tianxuan's suggestion, Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi boarded a flight to Hangzhou.

Before departing, they had a private conversation with Zhao Qingge.

"Qingge, don't worry, although their dates and hotels have been set, and the Huang family has already sent out invitations, we aren't going to Hangzhou to attend the wedding this time, but to discuss with Mr. Huang and Mrs. Huang about possibly canceling it."

"Exactly, from start to finish, we've opposed this, but… well, anyway, your father and I will find a solution, under no circumstances should you or the children be wronged."

Their attitude was clear, their stance firm, allowing Zhao Qingge to relax her tense nerves a bit, even though she knew they were saying this partly to comfort her, even though she knew the wedding wouldn't easily be canceled.

Because Huang Tianxuan's resolute words 'if you agree, I'll go ahead, if you don't agree, I'll do it anyway' still echoed in her mind.

Sure enough, just three days after Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi left, Huang Tianxuan also took Huang Zhiyi back to Hangzhou.
