"Su Qing, this is the person your mom introduced to you. Doesn’t he look good?" 0
 
Lying through her teeth, she was the best at it. 0
 
To call him 'not bad' was quite a stretch. 0
 
But I didn’t show my feelings; I just smiled and nodded. 0
 
My unexpected compliance made my mom very happy. 0
 
"Since both sides are interested, let’s set the wedding date today." 0
 
"As we agreed before, the betrothal gift is one million, no less." 0
 
One million? 0
 
Goodness, she really dared to ask for that. 0
 
Yet "Black Cube" didn’t say a word and happily agreed. 0
 
So we went from discussing wedding arrangements to talking about how many children we would have after marriage, from my studies to my career. 0
 
In those few hours of conversation, not a single person asked for my opinion. 0
 
Finally, it was "Black Cube" who remembered; he pointed at me and said, 0
 
"Mom, why haven’t we asked Su Qing what she thinks?" 0
 
To avoid the engagement, I told a lie and said I couldn’t have children. 0
 
My mom looked impatient and snorted coldly. 0
 
"What’s the point of asking her? I’m her mom; I make the decisions." 0
 
"Hei Pang Zi" smacked his lips and pulled out his bank card. 0
 
"Oh, you really are my good son-in-law." 0
 
My mom smiled so wide that the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes deepened. 0
 
Everyone was laughing, and as they were about to leave, I hurriedly called out to "Hei Pang Zi." 0
 
"I have an illness; do you really still want to marry me?" 0
 
"Hei Pang Zi" looked confused. 0
 
"What illness do you have?" 0
 
 
"Come here." 0
I pulled him aside. 0
"To be honest, I have a congenital uterine developmental disorder, which means I can't have children." 0
"My mom knows, but she doesn't want me to say anything. I couldn't bear to lie to you, so I told you the truth." 0
Not being able to have children is a big deal for his family; marrying a wife is all about continuing the lineage. 0
His expression immediately darkened. 0
"Then... why would you even get married if you can't have children? I'm not going through with this marriage." 0
After saying that, he angrily went to find my mom and snatched the card back. 0
"Hey, what are you doing? You already gave it to me, why are you taking it back?" 0
My mom looked puzzled. 0
"Who can't have children? Don't say such nonsense." 0
"He’s furious, thinking my mom is a big liar." 0
"You old hag, you think you can trick me!" 0
My mom instantly exploded. 0
"If you don't give me back the card today, don't even think about leaving this door." 0
My brother also shook his wheelchair and blocked his way. 0
"He’s not someone to mess with," he said fiercely, pointing at them. 0
"If you think you can stop me from leaving, are you sure about that?" 0
Those who have nothing to lose aren't afraid of threats; my mom and my brother, who are obsessed with money, certainly weren't intimidated by his words. 0
"Who’s afraid of whom? If you have the guts, just try to get past me." 0
The two stubborn and unreasonable people completely enraged him. 0
He actually pulled out a knife from his waistband. 0
My brother was so scared he hid behind my mom. 0
Though my mom was frightened, the thought of that one million made her stand tall. 0
 
 
"Come at me if you dare!" 0
"Bring it on! Anyone who backs down is a coward." 0
Hei Pang Zi charged forward with a knife in hand. 0
My Mom stood frozen, not moving an inch. 0
The blade sliced through My Mom's thigh, blood pouring out. 0
"Mom, are you okay?" 0
I feigned concern, but she shoved me away. 0
"Get lost! Is this your fault?" 0
"Mom, believe me, it wasn't me." 0
Hei Pang Zi stared at the bloodied knife, stunned. 0
He didn't expect My Mom to be so fierce, not even trying to dodge. 0
He tried to run, but my brother held onto his shirt tightly. 0
"You think you can hurt My Mom and just run away? Stand still!" 0
Hei Pang Zi kicked over the wheelchair, sending my brother crashing to the ground. 0
"Mom, I..." 0
My brother clutched his chest, wailing in pain. 0
My Mom dragged herself forward. 0
"Son, are you alright? Don't scare your mother." 0
Hei Pang Zi seized the opportunity to slip away. 0
"What are you standing there for? Go chase him and get that one hundred thousand back!" 0
As soon as I heard that, I dashed out after him. 0
Once I was far enough away, I leisurely sat by the roadside. 0
Hmph, how could I repay kindness with malice towards those who treat me well? 0
