by MarineTLChapter 150: This Humiliation I Won’t Endure!
“Have you had enough yet?”
Holding a large bouquet of flowers, Han Lixin glared coldly at Li Li inside the car.
“Why are you shouting so loud? My Li Li isn’t married into your Han family yet, and this is how you act? What happens after marriage then?” Li Li’s mother angrily reprimanded him.
But Han Lixin ignored her completely. His eyes were red, staring firmly at Li Li.
“Han Lixin, what do you want to say?”
“Are you getting out of the car or not?!” Han Lixin gritted his teeth, barely holding back his emotions.
“I’m listening to my mom. The 68,000 yuan get-out-of-the-car gift must be given, or I’m not stepping out. Besides, compared to the amount my mom’s friends get, this is already too little. Got it?” Li Li coldly smirked at Han Lixin.
She knew Han Lixin well. No matter how fiercely they argued, he would always give in first and come to make peace. This was why she dared to act so dominant now.
“Damn it! Li Li, you’ve gone too far! Let me ask you this—do you even want this wedding or not?!”
Hearing her words, Han Lixin finally gave up hope. He was shaking with anger.
The sudden outburst shocked everyone present, especially both sets of parents.
“Han Lixin, what’s gotten into you!” Zhang Xiulian hurriedly scolded him, tugging at his clothes to calm him down.
But Han Lixin dodged her hand and firmly said, “Mom, don’t stop me!”
“Do you even know what you’re saying, Han Lixin?!” Li Li’s mother shouted in anger.
“How dare you yell at me! Han Lixin, have you lost your mind?” Li Li screeched sharply, her voice shrill like a street brawler.
“Whether this wedding happens depends on your sincerity! Don’t think no one else will want me if I don’t marry you. I have plenty of suitors waiting for me—”
Before she could finish, Han Lixin interrupted her coldly.
“Fine. Fine. Fine!”
After repeating the word several times, Han Lixin looked utterly defeated.
Seeing this, Han Xinyan felt a pang of sympathy and stepped forward to intervene, but Shen Fei stopped her with a shake of his head.
Meanwhile, memories of the past few years flashed through Han Lixin’s mind—the years of humiliation, constant compromises, and sacrifices he made for Li Li. He could no longer hold it in.
He threw the bouquet to the ground and kicked the car door with force.
“Everyone disperse! This wedding—anyone who wants to marry her can go ahead, but I’m done!”
Pulling the bowtie from his suit, Han Lixin loosened his collar, his face unusually calm.
His words shocked everyone. No one had expected this.
The most stunned were his parents, Han Jian and Zhang Xiulian. Their faces instantly turned pale.
Canceling the wedding now? They had already paid for the venue, and relatives were all here to celebrate the joyous occasion. If the wedding didn’t go through, not only would the Han family lose face, but the 200,000 yuan spent on the banquet would be gone. That was their retirement fund!
The Li family was equally panicked. If the wedding fell apart, they’d be the laughingstock of their relatives and friends.
Li Li’s mother was furious and confused. How could the usually subservient Han Lixin lose his temper like this? And for what? All she asked for was 68,000 yuan. How could the Han family not afford it?
“Fine, Han Lixin! You think you’re something special? Don’t marry me then! It’s not like I, Li Li, can’t survive without you. This wedding? I don’t want it either! Don’t come begging me later!”
Li Li stormed out of the car, ripping off the bride’s label and throwing her bouquet to the ground.
Her actions escalated the already chaotic situation.
“What did we do to deserve this?!” Zhang Xiulian cried loudly, hitting Han Lixin in anger.
“You idiot! Do you know what you’re doing? All our relatives are here! We spent 200,000 yuan on this banquet! That’s real money! If you cancel now, it’s all wasted! Apologize to Li Li—she’s just angry; she didn’t mean it!”
“Mom, stop! I’m completely done with her! Even if she wants to marry me now, I won’t do it. I’ll pay back the money later, but this humiliation—I won’t endure it!”
With that, Han Lixin turned to leave, but Han Jian blocked his way.
“You can throw your face away, but what about your parents? Think of your mother! Apologize to Li Li and get this over with!”
Han Lixin sneered.
“Face? Dad, you and Mom care about face so much—that’s exactly why Li Li’s family walks all over us! Stop it already. I’m done with her!”
“You… You’re going to kill me, aren’t you? What are we supposed to do in front of all these people?” Han Jian trembled with anger.
“Fine! You want face, right? Well, I, Han Lixin, want my happiness!”
Saying that, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
…
Meanwhile, Ren Xiaomin collapsed onto a sofa, exhausted.
As a wedding planner, she had been working non-stop since early morning. Though her body was tired, her heart felt even heavier.
“Xiaomin, why the long face? Tired? Go home and get some sleep,” her friend Hu Jie asked kindly.
“I’m fine. I just need to rest a bit.” Ren Xiaomin forced a smile.
Seeing her like this, Hu Jie understood immediately.
“Come on, stop thinking about that guy. He got married today, and you were the one planning the wedding. Face it—he’s a lost cause!”
“I know…”
Before Ren Xiaomin could finish, Hu Jie cut her off.
“Listen to me—someone like you shouldn’t waste time feeling sad over a guy like that. You deserve better! Fate is strange. You liked him, but he’s getting married. That just means you weren’t meant to be. I’ll introduce you to some high-quality guys, ones way better than him!”
“Hu Jie…”
Hearing that, Ren Xiaomin felt a lump in her throat.
Just as she was about to find an excuse to leave, her phone suddenly rang.
Seeing the name on the screen, her heart skipped a beat.
