Zeng's mother looked a bit awkward and forced a smile, saying, "Why are you bringing this up?"
"It's all those bad women deceiving Zeng Guoqiang!"
"Zeng Guoqiang is so honest, how could he do such a thing?"
I shook my head helplessly; Zeng's mother was more stubborn than I had imagined.
"Auntie, considering how good you used to be to me, I advise you to pay more attention to your son. You know if he has any issues."
"As for this marriage, I have called it off."
"Also, I reported Zeng Guoqiang."
"Instead of trying to persuade me here, you should think about how to make Zeng Guoqiang's time inside a bit more comfortable."
After saying that, I left without looking back.
Behind me, I heard Zeng's mother calling out, "Xinyi! Xinyi!"
Zeng Guoqiang had been detained for half a month.
Zeng's parents were looking for connections everywhere, hoping to make Zeng Guoqiang's time inside more bearable.
The Zeng family couldn't find me for the time being, and I finally enjoyed a period of peace.
During this time, my parents came to visit. I took Zheng Miaomiao with me, and we went shopping and dining together; it was the most relaxing time I had in the past half month.
My parents also supported my decision and advised me to be careful outside to avoid retaliation from the Zeng family.
But unexpectedly, the Zeng family still came.
"Xinyi..."
Zeng Guoqiang stood in front of me, looking at me affectionately as if he were still the same passionate Zeng Guoqiang from before.
I looked at him coldly and said, "Since we're meeting today, let's talk about breaking off the engagement; let's not waste time."
Seeing my firm attitude, he stopped pretending and glared at me fiercely.
"Xinyi, I told you it was that woman who seduced me; my heart really only belongs to you."
"Can you stop messing with me?"
I let the Zeng Family into the house, preparing to have a serious discussion with them.
I took out the Bride Price and Wedding Gifts and placed them in front of them.
"The Bride Price and Wedding Gifts are here; I'm returning them to you."
Zeng's mother shot me an unhappy glance, "These were supposed to be ours; do you think you can just use these to dismiss us?"
"What do you want then?" my mom asked from the side.
"Of course, we want compensation," Zeng's mother snorted coldly. "Our Zeng Guoqiang was reported by your daughter and detained for half a month; shouldn't you compensate us?"
"Are you trying to extort us?" My mom stood up angrily. "Your son did something wrong; my daughter reporting him is justified. Do you expect my daughter to pay your son’s prostitution fees?"
"Watch your words!" Zeng's mother also stood up, pointing at my mom, "The suffering our Zeng Guoqiang endured this past half month must be compensated, along with emotional damages—totaling one hundred thousand; not a penny less!"
"Have you lost your mind over money?" My mom was so furious she almost struck out.
My dad quickly held her back, urging her to calm down first.
"My daughter reported illegal behavior; your son betrayed her, giving us reason to Break off the engagement. As for Zeng Guoqiang, he brought this upon himself; we won't pay a single cent."
My dad remained relatively calm, looking at the Zeng Family without a hint of fear.
"You just don't want to Break off the engagement or pay compensation, right?" Zeng's mother glared at me fiercely. "Fine, then we'll proceed with the wedding as planned. After all, your daughter has already lost her virtue to our Zeng Guoqiang; her reputation is ruined. I doubt anyone else would want her!"
"Watch your mouth!" My dad was also enraged, standing up and glaring at Zeng's mother.
