Seventies Sweetheart: From Breakup to Billionaire-Chapter 252: I Xiwang You Find Happiness (Bonus 1)

Chapter 252

Chapter 252: Chapter 252: I Xiwang You Find Happiness (Bonus 1)
Having someone he’s fond of is normal, as long as he can live steadily after marriage. Yang Lihua doesn’t expect any romantic love.
But the problem is, every time he faces Deng Jiaxin, Chen Qiqiang seems to lose his mind, disregarding right and wrong, always counting Yang Lihua as being at fault.
Deng Jiaxin becomes even more proud.
Also more eager to create discord between the two.
"You know there’s this issue between you two, so why still marry him?"
Yang Lihua gave a bitter smile, "If I miss out on Chen Qiqiang, I won’t marry into the city. Besides, my parents, brother, and sister-in-law are very satisfied with him. Even if it’s not him, marrying someone else would still come with various problems."
"Whether he likes me or not doesn’t matter; I just want to get what I want. As for Deng Jiaxin... she doesn’t even fancy Chen Qiqiang, she’s just finding a sense of existence between him and me. Once she finds someone to marry, she’ll stop causing issues between us."
So even though she knows there’s a problem between them, Yang Lihua has clear goals and can endure it, leading to the situation now.
Lin Xiang didn’t know how to comment.
From a friend’s standpoint, she certainly hopes Yang Lihua stays away from these two people. Marriage is a lifelong matter, and if there’s already a red flag before marriage, why still knowingly jump into the fire pit?
But Yang Lihua’s words revealed an intent.
Although her family isn’t bad, they’re still rural folks, and her marriage with Chen Qiqiang is like a stepping stone; she can become a city resident.
Whether Chen Qiqiang has her in his heart, that doesn’t matter at all.
"Lihua, I’m sorry," Lin Xiang said, feeling a bit guilty, "Earlier when my aunt asked me to inquire, I didn’t find this out. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said anything..."
Yang Lihua held Lin Xiang’s hand, "This isn’t your fault."
"Chen Qiqiang isn’t a bad person. He’s competent and has potential. Even if you inquire at the factory, they wouldn’t know about his personal matters. So, girl, don’t blame yourself."
Moreover, Yang Lihua is merely using Chen Qiqiang as a stepping stone; who he truly loves doesn’t matter.
Yang Lihua patted Lin Xiang’s hand and walked straight to Chen Qiqiang.
"Why are you here? Didn’t I tell you? We shouldn’t see each other before the wedding tomorrow."
"These are bad customs that should be abandoned long ago. Besides, my family doesn’t have many rules; it’s alright," said Chen Qiqiang, echoing Deng Jiaxin’s sentiment.
His eyes fell on the diamond hairpin above Yang Lihua’s ear, then asked Deng Jiaxin, "Is this the one you’re talking about?"
Deng Jiaxin nodded forcefully, her eyes fixed on the hairpin, determined to get it.
Chen Qiqiang stretched out his hand, "Give me the hairpin."
"What did you say?" Yang Lihua looked at Chen Qiqiang incredulously, "Just because Deng Jiaxin fancies it, I have to give it to her unconditionally?"
"It’s just a hairpin," Chen Qiqiang looked at Yang Lihua with an expression as if she’s making a fuss, "If you like it, we’ll go to the supply and marketing cooperative after we’re married to buy another one. Let’s give this one to Jiaxin."
"This hairpin is the gift Lin Xiang brought me from Beijing. Why should I give it up just because she fancies it? If she fancies you, do I have to give you up too?"
Without considering the consequences, Yang Lihua blurted out her thoughts.
Chen Qiqiang was startled, quickly covering Yang Lihua’s mouth with his hand, "Don’t talk nonsense!"
Deng Jiaxin’s face changed drastically but eventually forced a smile, "Yeah Lihua, I’m just friends with Qiqiang. We’ve known each other for years, if I had feelings for him, it wouldn’t have ever reached you."
Yang Lihua glanced at Chen Qiqiang, "Hear that? She doesn’t have you in her heart at all, you’re moved by your own emotions here. If you must do this, don’t involve me."
Yang Lihua, worried that Chen Qiqiang might snatch her hairpin, took a few steps back, "If nothing else, I’m leaving. I won’t mention today’s matter to your parents or mine, weigh it sensibly!"
Yang Lihua turned around, grabbed Lin Xiang, and strode forward.
Now Lin Xiang was sure, Yang Lihua indeed had no feelings for Chen Qiqiang.
But, even for city residency, she didn’t have to sacrifice her marriage, right?
In this era, divorcing is harder than climbing to the sky.
It’s not that the procedure is hard to handle, but once you have thoughts of divorce, how much gossip you need to face, can Yang Lihua cope with it?
Staying married, does she have to endure and compromise for life? What’s the point of living like that?
But she didn’t advise against it.
This is Yang Lihua’s life, she’s already made her decision, and Lin Xiang neither should nor has the right to persuade her.
The banquet was at one o’clock in the afternoon, and after eating, Lin Xiang planned to leave.
"Lihua, I still need to go to school this afternoon to check the admission notices. I can’t accompany you, but I’ll go to Chen Family tomorrow to attend your wedding."
Yang Lihua shook her head holding Lin Xiang’s hand, "Better not come tomorrow."
"I wanted you to witness an important moment in my life, but today, you’ve seen the most embarrassing side of my marriage. Even if you go tomorrow, you won’t sincerely bless me. Because you know, within this marital relationship, I’m destined to be the one who suffers."
"But girl, everyone has their own ambitions. My desire is to marry into the city. Even though Chen Qiqiang’s heart is with Deng Jiaxin, his family’s situation is simple, his parents treat me well, aside from this issue, everything else is fine. It’s not certain I’ll suffer when I marry over."
"I can’t let you feel disappointed with marriage before you even get married. Thank you for the gift, find me during winter break, okay?"
With Yang Lihua saying this, Lin Xiang couldn’t insist.
She nodded, "I’ll go tell Chunya, in the future, when you’re free, you can visit her. You guys grew up in the same village, now you’re both in town, you can look after each other."
"Chunya has my contact information, if you need my help, find a way to call me."
After saying this, Lin Xiang bent down and hugged Yang Lihua.
"No matter what, I hope you can live happily."
After leaving Yang Family, Lin Xiang went home to get her bicycle and headed straight to Town First Middle School.
Principal Wu had returned from the provincial city and was waiting for Lin Xiang in the office.
As soon as she entered, Principal Wu said, "I’ve already inquired in the provincial city. The admission notice can be reissued, just the procedure is a bit complicated. First, you need to get proof from your brigade leader, then Town First Middle School needs to certify that you’re Lin Xiang, after that..."
