My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1193 - 1029: Never Listened to Explanations, Never Gave a Chance (Part 8)

Old Master Zhang heard Zhang Zhentian saying these words to him, and he couldn’t quite grasp what kind of feeling was in his heart. He looked up at the sky and said to himself: Dear wife, can you see this? Our son has grown up, and this girl is his fiancée. You can be at ease now.

Xia Jing knew that Old Master Zhang was very happy at this moment. She spoke to him, "Uncle, I also want to thank you. If it wasn’t for you, Zhentian and I wouldn’t be together today. If it wasn’t for you, our fate might have ended when I went far away to the UK. You painstakingly raised Zhentian, and I only had the chance to find such an excellent life partner because of that. You made me understand what is truly important; it’s not whether one’s career succeeds, but that a family can be happily together!"

Not only Zhang Zhentian and Old Master Zhang didn’t expect it, but everyone present didn’t expect that a dignified mercenary group leader would speak such heartfelt words publicly.

"I know everyone might not believe that the words I said today could come from a mercenary, but I want to take this opportunity to say: Although I am a mercenary, I am also a woman, and I will have someone worth using my lifetime to protect. I hope everyone can dispel their prejudices against mercenaries!"

Xia Jing is actually quite extraordinary. She is perceptive and knows what she should and shouldn’t do. What she said today was actually to eliminate the world’s prejudice against mercenaries, because only in this way can the brothers and sisters who have always followed her and fought for her have a way out, can they be with the ones they love! She is doing this to plan for the future of her brothers and sisters.

Everyone felt quite embarrassed hearing Xia Jing’s words; they didn’t expect their true inner thoughts to be seen through by Xia Jing just like that.

For a moment, the atmosphere was quite awkward. Zhang Zhentian also felt something was off, so he said to Xia Jing: "Xia Jing, don’t worry, I will treat you well for the rest of my life. Whatever you want, I will do my utmost to give it to you. I only ask you to be with me forever!"

Everyone was stunned by Zhang Zhentian’s heartfelt confession.

"Zhentian, I hope you understand that I, Xia Jing, am definitely not with you for money. If I needed money, I have hands and feet, I can work hard to earn it myself. I don’t demand you treat me extraordinarily well when we are together; I only hope you can understand me a bit more, then I’ll be completely satisfied!"

"Oh my, Xia Jing, I almost forgot. Don’t you think Uncle should hurry and arrange your wedding? I have long wanted to hold a grandson!" Old Master Zhang chimed in.

Both Xia Jing and Zhang Zhentian were startled by Old Master Zhang’s unexpected words. They simultaneously said to him: "You’re thinking too far ahead!"

Both felt a bit embarrassed for saying this at the same time.

"You speak first!"

"You speak first!"

Once again, they spoke simultaneously. Xiao Wei and Li Jiayuan started to egg them on: "You two are really in sync, even speaking together with the same words. Should we play a game?"

Everyone was curious about what the game was, and someone asked: "Sure, sure, what is the game?"

Xiao Wei gave Zhang Zhentian and Xia Jing a mischievous smile; Xia Jing and Zhang Zhentian immediately felt a bad feeling deep inside.

"Let’s have them guess where their loved ones are. If they guess wrong, they’ll be punished to drink three cups of wine. How about that?" Xiao Wei said, still fearing the world wouldn’t be chaotic enough.

Xia Jing and Zhang Zhentian exchanged glances and knew: Things were not looking good!

"Let’s start now!" Xiao Wei said to everyone, smiling.

"Great!"

Everyone agreed with Xiao Wei’s suggestion. He walked over to Xia Jing and said, "Elder Sister Xia, isn’t my proposal great? Just wait to see how drunk my brother-in-law is going to get!"

Xia Jing originally thought this was just a game Xiao Wei and the others thought of when bored, but after hearing Xiao Wei say this, she realized she was completely mistaken. It wasn’t a spur of the moment idea, but a premeditated plan.

Xia Jing looked at Xiao Wei; Xiao Wei shrugged at Xia Jing with a helpless look and then walked away.
