Chapter 164: Confessing to Xia Chen

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xia Chen’s heart sank when he heard what Xia Wan had to say. It was obvious that she was in trouble.

Xia Wan took a deep breath and said to Xia Chen, “It was my duty to go to the supermarket today to buy bedding, but I saw a young man driving a luxury car that our townspeople definitely can’t afford. He stopped me in front of everyone and prevented me from going to the supermarket. He wanted me to accompany him. This man is shameless, and I hate him.

“After I got rid of him, I asked around and found out that he’s from another city. He came to our town for only one purpose: to find Xia Xu.”

Hearing this, Xia Chen’s eyes widened. “Xia Xu, isn’t that our grandfather?” Xia Wan nodded.

Xia Chen thought for a moment and then asked in shock, “So, this person is the fiancé who arranged the marriage with you. Is he here to find us now? He wants to marry you?”

Xia Wan shook her head. “He doesn’t look like he’s here to get married to me. He looks down on our town and the people around us. I’m guessing he’s more likely to break off the engagement now.

Xia Chen heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s good that he broke off the engagement. From what you described just now, this person is simply a hooligan. Let’s not live with such a person. Although breaking off the engagement is not nice, at least we don’t have to put up with him.”

When Xia Wan heard Xia Chen’s words, she sighed in her heart that her brother was still too naive and innocent.

“Brother, we don’t think he’s a good person. No matter how rich he is, he can’t be my son-in-law. But do you think if Lu Lin found the Xia family and

Grandma saw how rich he was, he would let go of this cash-cow son-in-law?”

“I don’t want to marry a hooligan. I don’t want to humble myself and curry favor with men to live a good life. However, Xia Ru and Xia Ye think otherwise, especially Xia Ru. Her reputation is already ruined. If she can be with Lu Lin, will she be able to turn from a crow into an eagle?”

“According to Xia Ru’s personality, she’ll probably be so smug that the whole village will know.”

Hearing Xia Wan’s words, Xia Chen also frowned. “But the person who exchanged the token with Lu Lin is you. The token is also in our hands. Grandma once said that without the token, the other party would not acknowledge this marriage.”

“That’s right. I’m the one who arranged this marriage. The token is in my hands as well. However, our family has already been separated, so Li Jin naturally wouldn’t allow me to have a good marriage. So, if she finds out that Lu Lin’s family is rich, she’ll definitely try to get the token from me and arrange for Xia Ru or Xia Ye to marry him.

“I don’t want such a man, but I don’t want this man to become Xia Ru or Xia

Ye’s husband either because it’ll only help them bully our family.”

Xia Wan’s face darkened as she said, “Brother, you and I know very well what kind of people our relatives are, so we must work hard. We can’t let Lu Lin join hands with those relatives to bully our family.”

Xia Chen originally just thought that if Lu Lin’s character was bad, he wouldn’t let his sister marry him. He didn’t expect that there were so many implications behind this. After listening to Xia Wan’s analysis, Xia Chen felt even more that if Li Jin and the others knew that Lu Lin’s family was rich, then she would indeed shamelessly steal the token as Xia Wan expected.

Xia Chen looked at Xia Wan. “When Dad and Mom were in the hospital, you must have packed the token when you came home, right? Hide it well, and don’t let Li Jin find it.”

Xia Wan nodded. “Don’t worry, brother. I’ve hidden this token well. No one will find it. Also, it’s not easy for people to find the house I’m looking for. It’s just that we’re setting up a stall here, so it’s easy to meet people we know. If Lu Lin comes to this Street to shop, she’ll definitely recognize me.

“We can’t say that we’re not setting up a stall because Lu Lin is in town now, right?”

Xia Chen looked at Xia Wan with determination in his eyes. “Sister, money can be earned any time. It doesn’t matter if we make less money for two days. The most important thing is to protect you and your family, so we shouldn’t set up for the next two days. First, we can pay some attention to Dad, and second, we can avoid this Lu Lin.. What do you think?”
