"I just don't want to get married now." Shen Mengxue became more willful.

"Shen Mengxue, are you out of your mind? Do you still think you're in your twenties? You're over thirty! If you're just in it for fun, you shouldn't be together at all, and you shouldn't go to that Mingchang Construction Company!"

"I have shares in that company, of course I have to go." The stubbornness of the boss lady was unparalleled.

"If you dare go, I'll break your legs!" Shen Tenglong couldn't hold it in, shouting out loud.

Shen Mengxue was taken aback; she never expected her usually doting father to be so fierce!

Jiang Qingyao had been listening to the conversation, and hurriedly came out, saying, "Tenglong, don't rush, words can be spoken calmly, anger harms your health!"

Shen Tenglong still angrily said, "A woman over thirty only thinking about dating and not marriage is the one who loses in the end!"

Jiang Qingyao quickly said to Shen Mengxue, "Your dad is saying this for your own good, you have to be a bit obedient! Think about it, what thirty-something woman only wants to date and not get married? That's just becoming a leftover woman!"

Shen Tenglong remained furious, "Her head must have issues, still thinking about dating at thirty-something. She was the same way back then, insisting on marrying Zhang Biao, and what happened? Divorced. Now we want her to marry, and she's not doing it!"

Hearing Zhang Biao's name, Shen Mengxue's face changed slightly.

Marrying Zhang Biao brought her untold hardship; it was the most wrong choice of her life.

"Dad, I know you're looking out for me, but I'm over thirty, I have my own thoughts. I'm not a child, please respect my decisions, okay?" Shen Mengxue said softly but firmly, tears falling down.

The two softened upon seeing Shen Mengxue's tears.

"Alright, alright, let's talk about this later." Jiang Qingyao said.

"Why not talk about it now? If we don't now, you'll regret it later." Shen Tenglong said resolutely, "I said I wouldn't oppose you being with Su Ming, but you need to marry him, you can't just date. Can you understand my hard intentions?"

"I understand, but..." Shen Mengxue didn't know what to say at the moment.

"Since you understand, then what's with the 'but'? If you're too embarrassed, I'll call him over myself to talk." Shen Tenglong said directly.

Actually, Jiang Qingyao also hoped Su Ming would marry Shen Mengxue soon, so she could have a chance to be nourished by Su Ming, after all, once a woman experiences such a strong man, she can't forget it!

"Dad, don't call him, I'll speak to him." Shen Mengxue hurriedly said.

"Alright, I'll be waiting for your good news." Shen Tenglong's expression softened.

After hearing this, Shen Mengxue hurried back to her room.

However, Jiang Qingyao followed her in and asked, "Is it you who doesn't want to marry, or does Su Ming not want to?"

"It's me." Shen Mengxue said through gritted teeth.

"Fine, I won't force you, think it over carefully." Jiang Qingyao said and then walked out of the room.

Shen Mengxue was conflicted. If she couldn't marry Su Ming, would she have to break with her family for him?

If she loved him, why not be brave in the first place!

If she didn't love him, then why was she caught in such a dilemma now!

Shen Mengxue absolutely wouldn't be a mistress, but she couldn't bear to leave Su Ming.

She sighed deeply, in deep distress, torn with indecision.

After much thought, Shen Mengxue sent a message to Su Ming, asking, "Are you home?"

"Yes, do you miss me already?" Su Ming replied with a smile.

Shen Mengxue gritted her teeth and messaged, "Let's break up!"

Seeing this message, Su Ming's smile vanished completely, his previously good mood instantly turned sour!

Knowing texting wasn't enough, he directly sent a video call.

But the boss lady wouldn't answer, just texted back, "Let's just text."

"Texting is so tiring!"

"Just text."

"Alright then." Su Ming texted, "Did your uncle pressure you again?"

"No, I just don't want to be a mistress, and you've already registered with Yanan." The boss lady said.

"Then what about all the fun we had at the hotel? Was it really just for fun?" Su Ming felt an unspeakable pain in his heart.

They were originally supposed to be together forever!

And now, they're talking about breaking up!

Who could stand that?

The boss lady didn't reply for a long time!

After waiting a long while, the boss lady finally responded, "I'm sorry!"

"What's the use of sorry? At least tell me the reason?" Su Ming was extremely distressed.

He didn't want the boss lady to disappear without a trace like Lin Yanan!

Seeing no response from Su Ming, the boss lady sent another message, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have gotten involved with you. We should really break up! Treat Yanan well in the future!"

Su Ming replied, "I don't want to break up, no matter what happens, I refuse to break up."

Unfortunately, the other side did not respond. Calls and video requests were not answered!

When Su Ming sent another message, a red exclamation mark appeared—he was blocked.

Frustrated, Su Ming lit a cigarette and started smoking!

After finishing a cigarette, Su Ming felt like driving to the boss lady's house to find out what was going on!

But in the end, he didn't go. Everyone was emotionally unstable now, and asking would lead to nothing, maybe just being scolded by Shen Tenglong!

Feeling moody, he thought it over and called Chen Hong.

The phone rang for a long time before it was answered, and Chen Hong asked groggily, "What is it?"

"I want to drink with you?" Su Ming said.

"I don't feel like drinking, but you sound unhappy. If you tell me what's bothering you, maybe I'll join you for a drink." Sun Miaohong said.

"Forget it." Su Ming didn't want to talk about the boss lady, so he hung up the phone directly.

Unexpectedly, Chen Hong called back, asking, "Why do you hang up so abruptly?"

"I invited you for a drink. If you're not coming, why should I not hang up?" Su Ming retorted.

"Hmph, something's up with you, tell me what happened?" Chen Hong asked with the slyness of a vixen.

"Nothing, just in a bad mood." Su Ming said.

"Never mind that, now I want to drink. You have to accompany me!" Chen Hong unexpectedly announced.

"Alright, let's drink properly then." Su Ming agreed directly.

"Come to my place quickly, I'm waiting for you." Chen Hong said.

"Can you pick me up?" Su Ming asked.

"Where are you?" Chen Hong queried.

"I'm at Tangquan Yipin." Su Ming replied.

"You must be missing your wife, that's why you went there." Chen Hong knew Lin Yanan had returned to Shangjing and also knew Tangquan Yipin's villa belonged to Lin Yanan.

"I don't like what you're saying." Su Ming hung up immediately.

When Chen Hong called again, he didn't answer, instead, he lay on the sofa and fell into a deep sleep.

Unexpectedly, he was awakened by the phone ringing again in his sleep.
