Chapter 917: Chapter 917: He Still Has One More Chance Chapter 917: Chapter 917: He Still Has One More Chance But this ti, Hai Lan didn’t co.
Hai Xiaotang personally invited her, but she still didn’t co.
Although she made the excuse that she was feeling unwell, everyone could feel that her absence was because of Wen Jingheng.
To avoid making Wen Jingheng feel awkward alone, Hai Xiaotang and the others also brought along children.
With a few children around, the atmosphere was always livelier.
“I heard Hai Lan is getting engaged?” Wen Jingheng suddenly asked in the middle of the al.
He was looking at Hai Xiaotang when he asked, but everyone was stunned for a mont, and the atmosphere seed to freeze for half a second.
Hai Xiaotang quickly smiled, “Yes, next month.”
“Which day?”
“The 13th of next month.”
“That’s in less than 20 days, the timing is just right.”
Just right for what?
The others didn’t understand what Wen Jingheng ant, but no one asked further. Only Wen Jingheng knew he had one more chance.
Hai Lan had asked him not to contact her for two months so that he could completely let go of her.
But he knew that after two months, he simply couldn’t let go of her. So before her engagent, he could pursue her one more ti.
Whether he succeeded or not, he hadn’t given up yet.
Perhaps even if she got married, he couldn’t give up…
Thinking of these, Wen Jingheng laughed at himself. It seed the fortune-teller was right, if he didn’t get married this year, he would remain single for life. It was also because he had never been involved with anyone that his grandmother beca anxious and went to have his fortune told.
Wen Jingheng was not superstitious and had even mocked the old lady for fussing over nothing. Now thinking about it, perhaps the fortune-teller was actually right…
But Wen Jingheng wasn’t demanding anything; things obtained by ans never last.
He didn’t want to resort to sches, he could only do what he could.
***********
“The fortune-teller said, Zhijie shouldn’t get married this year.” At the Wei family’s dinner table, Wei’s mother suddenly said hesitantly.
Hai Lan and Wei Zhijie were taken aback while eating.
Wei’s father had no reaction, probably already knowing about this.
Wei Zhijie puzzled, “Mom, when did you go to have my fortune told?”
Wei’s mother laughed, “Isn’t it our tradition to consult astrology for marriage to ensure good luck? I originally wanted to see when it would be good for the two of you to get married. The fortune-teller said that this year is not suitable for Zhijie, and actually said next year isn’t suitable either, otherwise it would bring bad luck. I’m not superstitious either, but hearing the fortune-teller say this, I feel uneasy.”
Hai Lan didn’t say anything, just glanced at Wei Zhijie.
Wei Zhijie hurriedly said, “Mom, you can’t believe what the fortune-teller says. Hai Lan and I have already planned to get married by next year at the latest. If you say this, won’t it make it impossible for us to marry?”
Wei’s mother explained, “That’s not what I an; of course, I hope you get married sooner rather than later. But I just fear the fortune-teller might be right. You two can get engaged first, and then it wouldn’t be too late to marry a year or two later.”
“That won’t do, how can we delay our wedding just because of a few words from a fortune-teller. Mom, you should find soone else to consult, maybe you’ll get a different result.”
Wei’s mother thought about it too, “Then I’ll go consult a few more people.”
“Even if the result is the sa, I still won’t believe it. Besides, how could I be unlucky marrying Hai Lan?” Wei Zhijie said, smiling and glancing at Hai Lan.
Hai Lan also smiled, looking very serene.
Wei’s mother actually liked Hai Lan very much, because she was truly sensible and perfect.
