Xia Mei glanced at Xue Jing and smiled at Nie's mother.
"Yes, from now on, our two families will be even closer. "
Xue Jing's face was a little Pale after being seen by Xia Mei.
On one side was Gu Boshu's father, and on the other side were the members of the Nie family.
Now that Xia Ling was unconscious, how could she reject the engagement?
It was said that a few years ago, Nie Chen insisted on going out to train himself, and suddenly lost contact with the outside world. In order to survive, he ate human flesh before coming out of the rainforest alive.
Xue Jing would rather die than marry such a cruel and cold man.
She was hesitant in her heart.
On the other side.
Everyone in the room had seen her expression.
Especially Nie Chen.
He took a glance at Xue Jing and withdrew his gaze.
He was rushed back by mother Nie in a hurry and only then did he know that today was his engagement party.
Mother Nie told him that Xue Jing liked him very much, which was why she was willing to marry him.
But now, it seemed that mother Nie lied again.
This so-called fianc��e of his did not want to marry him.

Nie Chen furrowed his brows.
"Mom, Aunt Xia, don't be busy. I came back to say that I'm not going to get engaged. "
"Nie Chen! " Mother Nie's face turned white.
Nie Chen had decided to start his own company a few years ago. He was suppressed in the business world until he was about to go bankrupt, but he survived just like that. Not only that, but he also showed no mercy to those companies that had once suppressed him He forced them to go bankrupt before he gave up. Because of that, he had a brutal reputation.
It was rare that the adopted daughter of the Xia family was willing to marry him. Mother Nie also wanted to seize this marriage for Nie Chen's good.
However..
Mother Nie looked at Xue Jing. With her pale face, who wouldn't be able to tell that she was unwilling Only Xia Mei wouldn't know, right?
"You guys settle your own matters. I still have some matters to attend to at the company. I have to go back first. "
From the corner of his eyes, he swept a glance at the girl on the bed. Nie Chen turned around and left.
His personality was cold and indifferent, and he was even more cold and heartless towards others. When mother Nie called him over, he was half-kidnapped and half-deceived. This adopted daughter of the Nie family was more or less the same, so Nie Chen accepted it.
However, mother Nie also didn't expect that this adopted daughter of the Xia family... ...
Her reputation was quite good outside, but it wasn't as good as being famous when they met.
The people outside were waiting. The engagement matter couldn't be resolved.
Nie Chen Wasn't willing, so naturally, no one could force him.
"Xia Mei, this matter... let's just let it go. " Mother Nie sighed ...
"It's been hard on you. " Xia Mei patted Xue Jing's hand.
Xue Jing lowered her head and let out a sigh of relief, but her eyes were red.
She seemed to be wronged, but in reality, she was glad.
Using the engagement matter to exchange for more favor with Xia Mei was also very good for her.
The atmosphere fell silent.

Just as mother Nie was about to ask to leave...
"Mom"
A weak voice came from the bed.
Xia Ling 'woke up' .
She half-supported her body and Xia Mei helped her sit up.
She was covered by a thin blanket and her slightly wrinkled red dress made her look worse and haggard.
Xia Ling's gaze fell on Xue Jing's hopeful face.
She looked at mother Nie.
"Aunt Nie, I heard everything you said. "
"In the afternoon, Sister Jing came to me and said she wasn't willing to marry Nie Chen. He and Gu Boshu were in love. ". "I originally wanted to discuss this with all of you. I wanted sister Jing and I to change our engagement partners, but I didn't expect my body to be so weak that I fell sick before I could speak. "
"It's just right. Now that everyone is here, let's talk about it. "
Xia Ling spoke naturally.
However, as soon as she spoke, everyone present had a subtle look on their faces, especially Father Gu. He glanced at Xue Jing and felt inexplicably awkward.
Xia Ling took a break and said again.
