Since meeting with Chen Huaqiang, Bing Tianyi had never seen him speak to him in such a tone. Now, seeing this, he couldn't help but feel a bit worried.
"Uncle, we can take our time to talk. Three days might be a bit tight; how about five days? If it's five days, I can prepare," Bing Tianyi said seriously to Chen Huaqiang.
In fact, Chen Huaqiang knew very well that asking Bing Tianyi to marry his daughter was fundamentally unfair. After all, according to the doctor, his daughter only had one month left.
What could one month bring to Bing Tianyi? Happiness? Fulfillment? Or a lifetime of loyalty?
None of these were true; instead, what Bing Tianyi would face would be disdain from others, deep inner pain, and a sense of guilt towards Chen Qian.
Hearing Bing Tianyi speak so earnestly made Chen Huaqiang freeze. He stood there for a long time, looking at Bing Tianyi before finally asking word by word, "So you agree completely? You won't regret it?"
"I won't. Give me five days, and within those five days, I will take wedding photos with Chen Qian and then hold the wedding," Bing Tianyi said earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Chen Huaqiang was instantly moved to tears and tightly embraced Bing Tianyi.
At that moment, Bing Tianyi felt an immense pain in his heart. He hadn't expected that just after losing his brother, he would also have to part with his fiancée, whom he had been preparing to marry.
But this is life; nothing ever goes smoothly all the time.
Five days later, the news of Bing Tianyi's upcoming marriage to Chen Huaqiang's daughter spread throughout the streets and alleys of the county. Those who knew the details said that Bing Tianyi was a man of affection and righteousness, but those who didn't know were already cursing him behind his back.
"This kid is just after President Chen's money! Luckily he's young; otherwise, what will happen in the future?"
Such insults could often be heard on the streets.
On the night before the wedding, Bing Tianyi sat in his living room. His Second Uncle and others from the countryside had not yet left his home; how could they bear to leave such a good life?
"Child, have you thought this through? This concerns your reputation for a lifetime," Mother Bing said tearfully to Bing Tianyi.
"Don't worry, I've made up my mind."
"That's good. At least we should conduct ourselves properly and not let Mr. Chen down," Father Bing said with a sigh of resignation.
At that moment, Bing Tianyi's so-called Second Uncle spoke up: "What nonsense! You, a big boss of a Construction Company, are going to marry a girl who is about to die? Are there no other women in the world?"
"Shut up and stop talking nonsense in front of me," Bing Tianyi could no longer suppress his anger and shouted at his Second Uncle.
He knew he shouldn't react this way, but thinking about Chen Qian leaving this world made it impossible for him to contain his sadness.
"Fine, I won't say anything more. Do as you please," the Second Uncle said before turning and walking toward his room.
Father Bing glanced at his son and quietly said to his wife, "Alright, let the child be. He has been busy all day."
Mother Bing responded with a sob and turned to go into the room to apologize to the elders.
Sitting on the sofa, just a few minutes later, Bing Tianyi's phone suddenly rang.
Upon answering, Wang Ziyan asked softly on the other end, "Bing Tianyi, are you getting married?"
"Yes."
"With Chen Qian?"
"Yes." When Bing Tianyi said this, there were no unnecessary explanations. Although he knew it was likely that he would end up with Wang Ziyan.
Wang Ziyan paused on the other end of the phone. After a long while, she quietly said, "I'm waiting downstairs at your place right now. If you don't come down, I'll wait all night."
"Whatever it is, let's talk about it over the phone. I'm not in the mood right now," Bing Tianyi continued.
Upon hearing this, Wang Ziyan hung up the phone directly. Clearly, her attitude today was very clear.
Bing Tianyi sighed helplessly. Now that he rarely smoked, he couldn't help but pick up a cigarette from the table, light it, and take a deep puff.
After finishing one cigarette, Bing Tianyi walked to the window and looked out at the pitch-black night sky. The cold wind was rustling outside. As Bing Tianyi opened the window, the cold air rushed in through the gap, making it feel particularly chilly.
Stepping downstairs, as Bing Tianyi reached the entrance of the community, a small car drove towards him. A silver Audi stood out prominently in front of him.
Wang Ziyan got out of the car wearing a thick down jacket. Shivering from the cold, she tightened her clothes.
"Aren't you cold wearing just a warm shirt?" Wang Ziyan seemed to have just wiped away her tears and curiously asked Bing Tianyi.
Bing Tianyi forced a smile and told Wang Ziyan directly, "Not cold."
"Get in the car," Wang Ziyan said as she opened the car door and looked at Bing Tianyi. Her voice was filled with hopeful tones.
Hearing this, Bing Tianyi's heart softened. After all, it was rare for this girl to change her attitude towards him so positively.
After getting into the car, Bing Tianyi sat in the back seat and looked ahead, only to find Ouyang Tian was also in the vehicle.
"Uncle, didn't you go to the city with Mr. Wang?" Bing Tianyi couldn't help but ask.
Ouyang Tian's response was just two words: "No."
Hearing the other person's stiff attitude, Bing Tianyi lost interest in asking further questions. When Wang Ziyan got into the car, she said to Ouyang Tian, "Take us to No. 7 Mansion."
"Yes." Ouyang Tian replied with just two words again.
In the car, neither Wang Ziyan nor Bing Tianyi spoke until they arrived at No. 7 Mansion. Only then did Wang Ziyan smile at Ouyang Tian and say, "Uncle Ouyang, please wait for us here for a moment."
"Okay." Ouyang Tian nodded.
Wang Ziyan entered No. 7 Mansion with Bing Tianyi. It seemed that this young girl was sure that Bing Tianyi would come, so she had reserved a private room in advance.
After entering, Wang Ziyan casually closed the door, sat down on the sofa in front of her, poured herself a glass of red wine, and gestured for Bing Tianyi to sit across from her.
Bing Tianyi did not sit down but looked at Wang Ziyan and asked, "What did you want to talk to me about? Hurry up; I need to go home and rest afterward."
"Are you really that unwilling to talk to me?" Wang Ziyan held her wine glass with an air of confidence and asked Bing Tianyi seriously.
Bing Tianyi smiled lightly and shook her head, saying, "Not at all."
"Then why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
"I've already told you, I want to go back and rest," Bing Tianyi said with a sense of helplessness.
To be honest, five days had already made it difficult for Bing Tianyi to bear. During the day, when he met Chen Qian, he had to endure the inner pain and put on a happy smile.
When he returned home at night, he faced either the reproaches of relatives or the doubts of friends. The various pressures made Bing Tianyi feel as if he couldn't catch his breath while lying in bed at night.
Seeing this, Wang Ziyan didn't expect that Bing Tianyi would appear so sorrowful at that moment.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you like this?" Wang Ziyan slowed her tone and asked softly while looking at Bing Tianyi.
"Nothing. What do you want from me? Just say it quickly."
Wang Ziyan took a sip of red wine, her red lips trembling slightly. She looked up and asked Bing Tianyi directly, "Are you marrying Chen Qian for the assets under President Chen's name? Or is it because your company is facing financial difficulties?"
"Do you all think I married Chen Qian for money?" Bing Tianyi furrowed his brows and stared at Wang Ziyan.
Seeing the anger on Bing Tianyi's face, Wang Ziyan was taken aback and curiously asked, "Isn't that the case?"
"Yes, that's right. I’m with Chen Qian just for his damn money; so what?" Bing Tianyi shouted angrily.
"Haha, it seems that's really the case," Wang Ziyan said as she put down her wine glass.
Bing Tianyi didn't think much of it and turned to walk out the door.
Just as he reached the doorway, Wang Ziyan suddenly called out, "Wait, I still have something to say."
"What did you say?" Bing Tianyi asked.
"If I were to ask you to marry me, would you be willing if my father's assets also became yours?" Wang Ziyan inquired.
It was evident that Wang Ziyan's eyes reflected genuine emotion at that moment. If Bing Tianyi agreed, she would undoubtedly be overjoyed.
After Wang Ziyan finished speaking, Bing Tianyi smiled. He turned around and walked step by step to sit across from Wang Ziyan. Once seated, he picked up the red wine on the table and drank more than half of the bottle in one go.
Catching his breath, Bing Tianyi said directly to Wang Ziyan, "Wang Ziyan, I’ll tell you the truth now: Chen Qian won’t live for much longer. According to the doctor, she can only live for a month at most. However, based on my calculations, she might last three months at most."
"What? Are you serious?" After hearing this, Wang Ziyan was stunned, looking at Bing Tianyi with curiosity.
"Whether you believe it or not is up to you. This is also why I want to marry Chen Qian. And there's one more thing I need to tell you honestly: despite dating Chen Qian for so long, I have never touched her. Although we have slept in the same bed, I was completely drunk at the time and couldn't possibly do anything with her." As Bing Tianyi finished speaking, tears could not help but fall from his eyes.
Wang Ziyan turned pale, sitting on the sofa as memories of her usually arrogant yet somewhat endearing senior suddenly flooded her mind.
"It can't be; how could someone so young leave this world?" Wang Ziyan thought to herself, murmuring repeatedly.
"Go ahead and ask what else you want to know. Tell me everything you're curious about, and I will give you the truth without missing a word," Bing Tianyi said, staring intently at Wang Ziyan.
Wang Ziyan tilted her wine glass slightly, and the red wine flowed slowly from the glass. By the time Bing Tianyi finished speaking, her eyes were already moist.
