Chapter 719: Wedding Banquet

is hand: "I got here early, I love their tea, so I came ahead of time to have them make a cup for me."Shen Wanci presented the gift she brought: "Master Xu, thank you for your care during my time in J...Just now, Jingzhou said he would dump her. He didn't miss the flash of light that suddenly appeared in Qin Yuezhi's eyes, clearly pleased with that outcome.

Qin Yuezhi : “...”

Even the most luxurious cars have limited space in their cabins. When the conversation turns serious, the confined quarters can become even more stifling.

Although she had been looking forward to breaking up with Huo Tingdong all day, when he actually asked, she still inexplicably felt nervous.

Huo Tingdong was still looking at her, as if she didn't answer, he would just keep doing this.

A dark depth shadowed his eyes, his gaze upon her serious and intent.

Qin Yuezhi swallowed nervously, and said honestly, "It's not that... But I want a boyfriend who is warm and understanding, not someone who is full of lectures and constantly gives me legal lessons...Dad."

She hesitated for a moment before uttering the last word, her voice barely a whisper, but Huo Tingdong still heard it.

Man: "..."

"Phew…" Finally getting those thoughts out, Qin Yuezhi wasn't afraid anymore, and blurted out, "For the first twenty years of my life, I stayed at home. If I overslept, my dad would give me a lecture..."

Qin's father had been a soldier before, and the Qin family was well-off. When it came to rules and regulations, they were stricter than ordinary people. "If your bed wasn't made properly, you'd be scolded; if you did something wrong, you'd be scolded; if you were late coming home, you'd be scolded. After finally growing up and moving out, he could do whatever he wanted. He didn't want to find another 'father' for himself in the next forty years, living a life where he was either being scolded or on his way to being scolded."

Qin Yue wove a small mouth, babbling incessantly. Huo Tingdong had never known she had such a good tongue, and hearing the content of her words, he was directly amused by anger.

“Besides, if we really got together and had children, if they took after me, he'd have to discipline them just like I am disciplined every day. Kids who are disciplined too much can become depressed. If they took after you, it would be even worse – I’d be punished by both of you. I’m not living long enough to go through that.”

Knowing full well it's a fire pit and jumping in with your eyes closed is something only love-struck people would do. She, being the sophisticated and self-serving person she is, would never do that. Never in her life. There was another thing she didn't say, because it wasn't polite and wouldn't be respectful to elders.

Everyone says that children are a reflection of their parents. If Huo Tingdong's parents were just like him, she would truly be miserable if she married him. She'd be even worse off! She immediately thought of ancient noblewomen from high-ranking families. Every move they made had to be in accordance with etiquette, and they couldn't make a single mistake. If her whole life was going to be like that, she might as well just die.

She had never met Huo Tingen's parents, nor had she ever heard him mention them. But before, she had read an article that briefly mentioned his family background. It seemed that both Huo's father and mother were in the sports system. Given that they raised someone like Huo Tingen who was so rigid, their home environment probably wasn't very relaxed.

"Done talking" Qin Yuezhi didn't speak for a long time, and Huo Tingen only opened his mouth softly. His emotions didn't change much, but she still felt a chill run down her spine involuntarily.

She subconsciously rubbed her arms and nodded. “Yeah.”

"Well," Huo Tingdong let out a light chuckle from his throat, "No need to rush. Think about it, is there anything else you want to say Any grievances you have against me Just get it all out at once."

Qin Yuezhi didn't know what he wanted to do, but her intuition told her this man was dangerous. She stiffened her neck and shook her head: "No."

Ho Tingdong is actually a really good person. He's generous, considerate, gentlemanly, kindhearted, well-educated and capable. He's also clean-living and doesn't have any messy ex-girlfriends or white moonlight obsessions. He doesn't even have any rumored girlfriends, he's definitely a role model for the top 10 best men.

But he would constantly nag her, lecturing her and making her copy legal clauses. He wasn't a boyfriend; he was more like her university advisor.

"Are you breaking up with me just because I asked you to copy legal clauses"

“You not only made me copy, but also memorize,” her voice held a barely perceptible grievance as she said with a tight face, “I’m your girlfriend, not your assistant. What use is learning all that legal knowledge for Are you going to brag about it later”

Huo Tingdong chuckled helplessly: "I was the top of our class back then."

This 720-degree spin turn left Qin Yuezhi completely dumbfounded. She stared at him in disbelief, her big, watery eyes wide with shock: " So what Just because you're a top student, I can't break up with you You're first in academics, so you have to be first in love"

She suspected Huo Tingdong had poisoned his brain by reading too much. She heard that you need to graduate with a master's degree to even find a job in the legal profession.

"If people knew that the top student in law school found a girlfriend who's clueless about the law, those classmates I've always beaten would probably die laughing…"

His voice was light and cheerful, with a hint of teasing. This wasn't an explanation at all, it was clearly just a joke.

Qin Yuezhi glared at him coldly, then turned and opened the car door. From now on, if she said another word to Huo Tingdong, she would be a dog.

She spoke so seriously about the issues between them, but he treated it as a joke and teased her. Since he didn't want to find a solution, what was there even to talk about It was just wasting words.

"Zizi," Huo Tingdong pulled her into his arms, a face full of apology. "I'm sorry, I'll change these things in the future and won't lecture you anymore."

From a young age, he had never had female friends. As for the colleagues at the law firm, to him, they were only positions, not genders. If someone made a mistake, they would be scolded, so he got used to it. When he saw Qin Yuezhi make a mistake, he subconsciously treated her as an employee under his command.

Qin Yue's whole body stiffened as she was held in his arms. Although she had complained, she had never expected Huo Tingdong, this scoundrel, to apologize and say he would change. It was simply...

That's terrifying.

Huo Tingdong knew she was unhappy with him and didn't immediately chase after her to say sorry: "It's normal for couples to have arguments, you can't break up just because you're unhappy. I now know where I made you unhappy, so give me a chance. If I don't change in the future, you can break up with me again"

Qin Yue's head was spinning, and with Huo Tingdong's persuasive words, she somehow ended up nodding in agreement.

It wasn't until the man leaned in for a kiss that she realized she had been tricked again by Huo Tingen, that sly fox of a man.

"If you agreed, then you can't take it back. You can't break up with me anymore using this as an excuse."

He didn't give her a chance to take it back. After a fleeting kiss, he started the car and drove away.

He had originally planned to take their relationship a step further today, but after what just happened, it was obviously not possible. He sent Qin Yuezhi home and reached out to gently tousle her hair before leaving.

Qin Yuezhi wasn't in a hurry to divide things up, so she quickly put the matter aside. After taking a shower, she received a call from Shen Wanci: "Come over for dinner on Wednesday."

"So formal What for Aren't you getting married"er pant leg."“So I still have to take my pants off What kind of car is so unprofessional, giving someone a scar on their butt,” Qin Yuezhi now just wants to send her a small meme of Yueyue taking a de...
