Reborn-After-C120
by MarineTLChapter 120: You’ll Know When You Get There!
Since being reborn, it’s rare to see Han Xinyan so serious.
Shen Fei couldn’t help but straighten up his posture.
“Hmm, go ahead,” he said.
“Li Xin has set the engagement date with Li Li, and it’s on the 14th day of the 8th lunar month, September 9th!”
“That’s just two weeks away?” Shen Fei asked in confusion.
“Yes, this date was decided after my mom consulted several fortune tellers! September 9th—‘long lasting,’ and it’s also the day before Mid-Autumn Festival! Li Xin wanted to delay it a bit, but you know my mom, once she has her sights on Li Li, she can’t wait to get her married off! So, this date it is!”
As she spoke, Han Xinyan showed a bit of worry.
“I think your mom’s afraid that if they delay, Li Li’s family might change their mind!” Shen Fei said with a smile.
“Exactly!” Han Xinyan nodded slightly.
“Although I don’t really like Li Li, my mom is determined to get her married to Li Xin. If anyone dares to speak ill of her, they’ll get an earful from my mom! It’s made everyone too scared to say anything bad about Li Li! We just have to ignore it, or else it’ll only bring us trouble.”
“True, but this can’t go on forever, right?” Shen Fei said.
“As long as Li Xin is happy! In the end, they’re the ones who will be family!” Han Xinyan shrugged.
“Do you think Li Xin will be happy after marrying someone like Li Li?” Shen Fei whispered.
“I don’t know, but happiness isn’t something we outsiders can define! Besides, my mom likes Li Li so much, she just wants Li Xin to marry her quickly! Every time someone says something about Li Li, my mom is so mad she can’t stand it! Who dares to speak the truth anymore?”
Before Shen Fei could reply, Han Xinyan continued, “Compared to Li Li, I think there’s someone more suitable—Xiao Min, the wedding planner from Li Xin’s company. I think she’s a good match for him! She’s beautiful, composed, and much better than Li Li! The best part is, she likes Li Xin… But it’s all unrequited love!”
“I’ve talked to Li Xin a few times about this, but he’s so focused on Li Li that he doesn’t pay attention to Xiao Min. Now that the wedding is almost here, we just have to keep quiet about it! It’s all up to them now!”
Despite her generous advice, Han Xinyan wasn’t optimistic about Li Xin’s marriage. The main reason was that Li Li wasn’t someone who would settle down easily.
From Li Li’s attitude toward Li Xin, it seemed she didn’t treat him like a long-term partner but more like a backup.
However, no matter how pessimistic she was, she was still an outsider. This matter could only wait until the parties involved woke up to the truth.
“Since it’s like this, let’s not worry about it anymore! We’ll just get blamed if we do!” Shen Fei comforted her.
“Right! That’s exactly how I feel!” Han Xinyan smiled bitterly, feeling helpless.
“By the way, did your mom agree to all of Li Li’s conditions at the dinner table?” Shen Fei asked.
“Pretty much! They’ve already paid the down payment for the house, and bought the car. As for the dowry, they’ll give it soon! Speaking of this, it really makes me upset. Your 500,000 yuan is included in it! They really have the nerve to use it!”
Han Xinyan was indignant about it.
“Alright, that 500,000 wasn’t spent in vain. It’ll be used for Li Xin’s wedding. Consider it my way of thanking him! After all, if it wasn’t for his help back then, our wedding wouldn’t have gone so smoothly! Let’s not talk about that 500,000 anymore—it doesn’t do any good to keep dwelling on it!”
Regarding this marriage, Shen Fei didn’t have high hopes either. But bringing it up would only cause Han Xinyan more distress.
Moreover, Li Xin was a stubborn person, and after being so devoted to Li Li for so many years, it wouldn’t be easy for him to just give up. Unless Li Li hurt him deeply, he wouldn’t turn back.
“By the way, for Li Xin’s wedding, he wants Yueyue to be the flower girl!” Han Xinyan exclaimed.
“Let her go!” Shen Fei shrugged, not concerned.
The two paused, and with mutual understanding, quickly moved on to another topic.
At that moment, the waiter brought the dishes to the table.
Shen Fei had tried several times to bring up the matter of buying the house, but he hadn’t yet.
After thinking for a while, he decided to take them directly to the new house.
After eating their fill, the family of three got into the car and drove along the long road.
“Dad, this isn’t the way home… Are you taking us to the amusement park?” Shen Jiayue exclaimed excitedly.
Ever since her first visit to the amusement park, the little girl had been longing to go again.
Seeing the familiar signs ahead, she immediately became thrilled.
Han Xinyan looked around in surprise, realizing the route they were taking was the opposite of the way to their rented house.
“It’s late, the amusement park must be closed by now!” Han Xinyan said suspiciously.
“Yes! So the purpose of this trip isn’t the amusement park!” Shen Fei replied.
“Then where are we going? A joyride? Don’t! Gas money is still money!” Han Xinyan said, worried.
“It’s not a joyride!” Shen Fei denied.
He glanced at Han Xinyan, who was still confused, and laughed, “Don’t ask so many questions, you’ll know when we get there!”
Seeing Shen Fei act like this, Han Xinyan could only let go of her doubts and stopped asking questions.
As she watched the scenery passing by outside, her curiosity only grew.
After all, today wasn’t anyone’s birthday, nor was it their wedding anniversary.
“Dad, we passed the amusement park!” Shen Jiayue noticed the Ferris wheel flashing by and said anxiously.
She was so focused on the amusement park that she didn’t pay attention to the conversation between Shen Fei and Han Xinyan earlier.
“Yueyue wants to go to the amusement park? How about another day?”
Shen Fei said gently, “Today, Dad is taking you and Mom to a place even more beautiful than the amusement park! Once we get there, you won’t want to leave!”
Hearing this, Shen Jiayue got even more excited.
“Really?”
“Really! Dad isn’t lying to you!”
As they spoke, Yunhe Villa slowly appeared in front of them.
