The time of the city

Chapter 211 Trying on Wedding Dresses

It was early in the morning, and the villa area was quiet. Nan Feng had just brewed a cup of coffee, and the steam was rising, filling the air with a mellow aroma. Just then, the doorbell rang.

Nan Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, put down the coffee cup in his hand, and walked quickly to the door. The moment the door opened, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

I saw He Qingqing standing outside the door with dark circles under her eyes.

"Qingqing, why are you here?" There was some doubt in Nan Feng's voice.

He Qingqing raised her phone, her eyes slightly red, her voice filled with grievance and sadness: "A Feng, why haven't you contacted me for so many days? Don't you miss me?"

Nan Feng frowned slightly, and said apologetically: "I've been busy with work recently, sorry."

He Qingqing bit her lower lip lightly, pushed Nan Feng aside, walked straight into the house, sat down on the sofa, and said excitedly, "I saw a short video a while ago. The person who filmed the video was fighting a war. They had time to record the video while fighting, but you are so busy that you don't even have time to send a message?"

After she finished speaking, she looked up at Nan Feng, only to see him leaning against the door frame, looking at her silently.

"A Feng, is it because my father ran away and my family's company collapsed that you ignored me?" He Qingqing's voice trembled slightly. "You approached me because you wanted my cousin's support, not because you liked me, right?"

Nan Feng sighed slightly, his eyes wandering, looking at a certain place without focus, his voice as flat as stagnant water: "Qingqing, in our circle, arranged marriages are very normal. We don't have the right to choose who to marry. I approached you in order to gain the support of the Zhao family and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results." At this moment, he was like a puppet with his soul taken away.

In fact, after learning that Nan Feng was hypnotized, and after thinking about it for a few days, He Qingqing vaguely guessed that Nan Feng approached her because of a task assigned by Qiao Zhengrong.

After being hypnotized, he was like an emotionless robot, only knowing how to accept instructions and complete tasks.

These days, He Qingqing had been searching around and had found many photos of Nan Feng and Mo Yu together. In the photos, Nan Feng's eyes were always closely following Mo Yu. When he looked at her, his deep peach blossom eyes were filled with tenderness and a smile, a gentleness completely different from the one he showed to her.

It was not difficult for He Qingqing to imagine how Nan Feng would resist when faced with Qiao Zhengrong's request for an arranged marriage. He would never have said so calmly, "Arranged marriage is very normal."

"Ah Feng, I understand. So, will you only be happy if my cousin stands firmly on the side of the Qiao family and fights against the Ni and Lin families together with the Qiao family?"

Nan Feng shook his head, his tone still calm: "Your brother is an independent person, he has his own ideas, I can't force him to do the same thing as me."

He Qingqing's lips curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile. She thought to herself, "Looks like that old man Qiao is behind this. He's controlling A-Feng, and now he wants to control me and the Zhao family too. He's just taking advantage of my liking for A-Feng to manipulate me. Don't forget, I have something on him too."

……

In the afternoon, Mo Yu woke up from her nap with a heavy head. She went downstairs in a daze to get some water. Her steps were unsteady and she was not fully conscious yet.

Just as she was going down the stairs, she suddenly missed a step and lost her balance instantly. She subconsciously closed her eyes.

However, the expected pain did not come, and she fell into a strong embrace.

"Little Confused, be careful downstairs."

Mo Yu suddenly opened her eyes, and what came into view was Ni Jiamu's smiling face.

"You... why are you back?" Her voice was still hoarse from just waking up.

Ni Jiamu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, reached out to take a glass of water from the table beside him, and handed it to her: "Today is the weekend, I have worked overtime all morning, it's time to have a good rest."

Mo Yu nodded slightly, took the cup of water, walked to the sofa and sat down, tilting her head back and drinking the water in one gulp.

"Pack up and take you somewhere."

"Where to go?"

Ni Jiamu just smiled and said nothing.

The moment Mo Yu stood at the door of the bridal shop, she instantly understood Ni Jiamu's intention.

"I'm not going." She frowned tightly and turned back without hesitation.

Ni Jiamu hurried forward and took her arm: "Xiaoyu, we are getting married, and trying on wedding dresses is the right procedure."

"Get married?" Mo Yu widened her eyes and pulled her arms out with force, feeling a little agitated. "Did you get my consent? I don't want to marry you." If she had known that she was coming to try on wedding dresses, she would never have come out.

The two of them struggled for a long time at the entrance of the bridal shop, with passersby casting curious glances at them. Many people recognized them because they had been in the news before.

"Xiaoyu, a lot of people are watching us. If you don't go in, you'll be photographed again." Ni Jiamu leaned over and whispered in her ear.

Mo Yu's face turned red instantly. She didn't have a mobile phone during this period, but she knew in her heart that the previous photo of her and Ni Jiamu must have been on the hot search and must have affected the reputation of the Ni family, otherwise her parents would not know about it.

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and reluctantly followed Ni Jiamu into the bridal shop.

As soon as I walked in, the manager came up to me with a big smile on his face and said respectfully, "Mr. Ni, the wedding dresses you liked earlier have all arrived. I'll show them to you and Miss Mo."

"Let's go and see if there's anything you like." Ni Jiamu took Mo Yu's hand and tried to pull her over.

"My stomach hurts a little and I want to go to the bathroom." Mo Yu suddenly covered her stomach with a painful expression on her face.

"Then you go first. Do you need me to accompany you?"

Mo Yu quickly shook her head, turned around, and walked quickly towards the toilet. As soon as she was out of Ni Jiamu's sight, she quietly put her hand down and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mo Yu, why are you here?" A sharp voice suddenly rang out. Chen Xiangqin appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of Mo Yu, with Gu Bai beside her.

"What does it have to do with you?" Mo Yu glanced at her coldly, her tone full of disgust.

"Oh, so it's about your brother. No, you have severed ties with the Ni family. It's your ex-brother who came here to try on the wedding dress?" Chen Xiangqin deliberately raised her voice and turned back to look at Ni Jiamu who was waiting not far away.

A trace of anger flashed in Mo Yu's eyes, and she said loudly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I sever ties with the Ni family?" At the end of her words, her voice couldn't help but tremble.

Chen Xiangqin snorted coldly, her face full of pride. She opened her phone and handed it to Mo Yu: "Ni Jiamu is so rich, but he didn't install a signal for you. He said so himself."

After seeing the text on the phone clearly, Mo Yu felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and her whole body was extremely cold.

Chen Xiangqin pulled the phone back and continued to nag, "Not only did you seduce Gu Bai, you even didn't let your own brother go. Ni Jiabai adopted you. I guess Ni Jiamu's parents must hate you to death, so they cut off all ties with you. And Ni Jiamu said he wanted to marry you, but don't be complacent. He'll just play with you for a few days at most, and then he'll just throw you away..."

"Shut up!" Mo Yu couldn't bear to listen any longer, pushed Chen Xiangqin away, and ran towards the toilet.

"My parents really don't want me anymore." Mo Yu leaned on the sink, tears falling uncontrollably.

"Are you okay?" At this time, a soft voice came from behind.
