RETURNING FROM THE IMMORTAL WORLD

Chapter 721 - Chapter 730

Chapter 721: I Already Have A Perfect Wife At Home, So There Is No Bed Left For You

Yu Hong scornfully smiled in response to Tang Xiu's remark. She had been living in Changxi for many years, and even though her Yu Family could not be considered as a top-ranked family here, they were still a mid-ranked one and naturally understood the thoughts of the juniors of these families.

This farce, however, related to the faces of the two families, and even if Ji Mu was full of arrogance, it was highly unlikely he would do anything to shame them both.

In the beginning, she liked Tang Xiu a bit. After all, this guy was the man her good sister had a crush on. But now it seemed like this fella was ignorant about the situation as well as a boaster, simply courting humiliation upon himself.

At the restaurant's door, Ren Ranran stood there, with a face full of expectation. She was sure Ji Mu would not refuse her. Her good sisters incited and encouraged her to bet on this rugged, dangerous move. She liked Ji Mu a lot, to the point this feeling was carved deep down inside. And yet, she also realized that this guy felt just a bit affection toward her, and had yet to turn into liking, let alone love.

"You know my character, Ji Mu. What I hate the most is to have the Family do some kind of acrobatic for an arranged marriage. But ever since three years ago when you escorted me to the hospital due to my illness, only then did I realize that I liked you. The longer the time passed, the deeper this feeling got. My feeling for you is pure, uncontaminated by our so-called status. I like you even if you have nothing and I will follow you with all my heart, till death do us part. Please promise me... to marry... no, to take me as your wife."

Ji Mu, however, frowned deeply, and there was anger when he looked at her.

Was the child... she said... anything but only a chip? While she used their statuses to force him under the public witness?

Ji Mu sneered inside, then took out a cigarette and lit it up under everyone's watchful eyes. He did not wish to hurt Ren Ranran, but he did not want to be forced either. Had it been a couple days ago, he might have felt pressured due to their statuses and thus promise her. But now...

"I used to think that you were a smart woman, Ranran. At the very least, you did not pester me after what happened between us last time. So much so that I would start liking you if you were to work this out step by step and had exchanges with me just like how you used to. However... what you are doing today is anything but smart. Aren't you just using my child as a chip to force me? Like you are using our statuses in Changxi?

"I, Ji Mu, am not a man who treats affections and love like a child's play. If there was really a bond that tied our heart, I would be the one to take the initiative to court you and swear to give a happy life, so you would not need to use this kind of means to coerce me.

"But now...

"I refuse!"

Ren Ranran was stunned and dumbfounded. She had never dreamed that Ji Mu's reaction would be this intense, so much that the attitude he showed her was like that of... abhorrence.

Is it wrong? Is my love for him a mistake?

I have given you my body to the point that I'm now carrying your child.

So why?

For what reason he's ignoring the two families' faces, even refusing me so heartlessly like this?

Tears like beads were falling down her face as Ren Ranran desperately shook her head. Her hand that held the megaphone was trembling, as she loudly said, "I don't have the intention to force you, and neither am I threatening you, Ji Mu. What I'm doing today is just because I wanted you to know how much I really love you. For I, Ren Ranran, will do whatever you want even if I must cast away any constraints a woman must have and throw away my honor and reputation just to be with you."
