Reborn as the spoiled male wife of the mortal enemy

Chapter 340 He Only Wants Nanchun

Someone had tipped off the newspapers about the Wang family's upcoming banquet for the Sheng family. Suddenly, the news of the Wang family's impending marriage to the Sheng family spread like wildfire throughout Yangcheng.

Sheng Zexi's face was gloomy.

Someone was plotting something bad in secret, trying to put him on the fire.

When Sheng Yuqing found out, he thought it was a good thing.

He knew that Zexi had no such intention towards Miss Wang, and was still thinking about how to convince him.

Now that public opinion is fueling the flames, Zexi has to think twice even if he is unwilling.

"Which young lady from a wealthy family in Yangcheng doesn't have a temper? Although the appearance and character of the young lady from the Wang family are not the best, they are acceptable. Counselor Wang is now very successful in the officialdom, and he will probably be promoted to a higher level next year. There is no harm in our Sheng family marrying into the Wang family." Sheng Yuqing said.

Old Master Sheng coughed lightly and said, "Zexi, your father has a point. Let's arrange the marriage before the New Year, and then wait for Counselor Wang to be promoted after the New Year, so that we can have a double happiness."

Sheng Zexi didn't say anything, but a surge of anger was burning in his heart.

I have done so much for the Sheng family over the years, but in the end I was still used as a tool to seek benefits.

Noticing that he looked unhappy, Old Master Sheng asked with concern, "Zexi, what's wrong? If you really don't like it..."

"Dad, didn't Zexi say before that he doesn't care who he marries? It's up to us to decide. What does it matter whether he likes her or not? If there is someone he really likes, he can just marry her as a concubine." Sheng Yuqing said.

Sheng Zexi smiled bitterly.

Yes, he did say that it didn't matter who I married, as it was all decided by my grandfather and father.

But now...it's different.

He only wants Nanchun.

Sheng Zexi walked out of the main courtyard with heavy steps and went straight to the gate.

He was very irritable and didn't want to stay here for a second.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I met my second uncle's family.

"Second uncle, second aunt."

"Oh, it's Zexi. Why are you going out so late?" Sheng Yuquan said.

"I want to go out and get some fresh air." Sheng Zexi said.

Sheng Zekai saw that he looked unhappy and said with a smile, "Brother, are you depressed because of the news in the tabloids?"

Ruan Hongyan said, "Zexi, don't be silly. What a wonderful match! Second Aunt heard that Counselor Wang will be promoted soon. Having a powerful in-law is a real backer. Alas, our Zekai is not so lucky."

Sheng Zexi sighed, "Alas... I have someone I like, and I really don't want to break my promise to him. I'll go to the Wang family tomorrow and put this matter off!"

He said that and wanted to leave.

Sheng Yuquan grabbed him and said angrily, "What are you talking about? The marriage between the Sheng and Wang families is of great importance! As a descendant of the Sheng family, you must prioritize the overall situation and not act recklessly!"

Sheng Zexi said with a cold face, dissatisfied: "Descendant of the Sheng family? Am I the only descendant of the Sheng family? If you like, Second Uncle, you can marry into the Wang family!"

After that he left.

"Hey, what's that brat talking about? I'm already old, and you're asking me to arrange a marriage?" Sheng Yuquan was both angry and amused. He looked at Sheng Zekai and said, "It's rare for something to make your elder brother so angry!"

Sheng Zekai said with a gossipy look on his face, "I wonder who Big Brother has his eye on. Could it be that actress Li Rou from his film company? Grandfather and uncle would definitely not agree!"

Ruan Hongyan was full of thoughts and was still thinking when she entered the yard. She almost bumped into the bonsai in the yard.

Sheng Yuquan saw that she was distracted, so he asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you so absent-minded?"

Ruan Hongyan's heart was beating fast. She pulled Sheng Yuquan aside and whispered, "Although Zexi said some nonsense just now, he also reminded me. Our Sheng family does have more than just one descendant! Isn't our Zekai the same?"

Sheng Yuquan curled his lips and said, "The Wang family is interested in Zexi, not Zekai."

Ruan Hongyan rolled her eyes at him and said dissatisfiedly, "What's wrong with our Zekai? Besides, haven't the two families officially met yet? The rumors outside... just say that the Wang family and the Sheng family are interested in a marriage. They didn't mention whether it's with the eldest or second son."

Sheng Yuquan looked embarrassed: "But..."

"But what buts? Zexi himself is unwilling to do this now. For the sake of our Sheng family, Zekai has to take up this burden. You should go and talk to the old man!" Ruan Hongyan said.

Sheng Yuquan hesitated. Who in Yangcheng didn't know that the Wang family was targeting Zexi? Besides, his father and eldest brother were also very happy with this marriage. How could he bring himself to speak?

Seeing him hesitate, Ruan Hongyan said angrily, "If you don't tell me, I'll go tell the old man! If we wait until tomorrow, and Zexi goes to the Wang family to refuse this marriage, it will all be over!"

After she said that, she walked towards the main courtyard. Sheng Yuquan had no choice but to hurry up and follow her.

Main courtyard.

"Why are you here so late?" Mr. Sheng took off his glasses and said.

"Dad, my daughter-in-law heard that we are planning to marry into the Wang family." Ruan Hongyan said with a smile.

Mr. Sheng nodded and said, "That's what happened."

"Look, our Zekai is old enough to get married." Ruan Hongyan and Sheng Yuquan looked at each other.

Sheng Yuquan hurriedly said: "Yes, it's time for Zekai to be decided."

Old Master Sheng raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "Why? Are you trying to snatch Zexi's marriage?"

Ruan Hongyan was horrified and said hurriedly, "Dad, you can't say that! I only thought of letting Zekai take on this responsibility after hearing that he didn't want to."

"Zexi said he doesn't want to?"

"Yes, I just ran into him at the door. He looked unhappy and wanted to go out for some fresh air. I asked him why, and he said he had a lover and didn't want to marry into the Wang family. By the way, he also said angrily that he would go to the Wang family tomorrow to clarify the matter.

"Dad, this marriage is a matter of great importance. Now everyone knows that our Sheng family is going to marry the Wang family. If Zexi really goes to the Wang family and refuses this, wouldn't that be a slap in their face in front of everyone in Yangcheng? Then we will become enemies with the Wang family!" Ruan Hongyan sighed.

Mr. Sheng looked solemn.

Zexi grew up by his side since childhood, how could he not see that he was unwilling?

I just think this is a great help to Zexi. As a member of a large family, marriage is not something that can be decided by oneself.

Seeing his attitude soften, Ruan Hongyan hurriedly said, "I know you're reluctant to let Zexi suffer any injustice. But you're also worried about creating a feud with the Wang family. Wouldn't it be better to have Zekai join the marriage?"

If only it were that simple, Mr. Sheng frowned.

Will Miss Wang be attracted to Zekai?

Sheng Yuquan understood his concerns and said quickly, "We didn't explicitly say the marriage proposal was with Zexi. If the Wang family rejects the marriage, it won't be our fault. Then everyone will say that the Wang family looks down on the Sheng family, and it will be the Wang family that will be anxious."

Mr. Sheng thought about it and agreed.

In any case, the Sheng family will not suffer any loss.
