Chapter 269 She Was Resourceful
Chapter 269 She Was Resourceful
Essie didn't want to do any work anymore. Although she was trusted by Zac, she was still restless. Zac loved Leila so much, and they had been deep relationships for so many years, but he still gave up because of Leila's family. In his heart, the Rong's Group must be more important than women. Essie thought herself was just a substitute. She meant nothing to him. How could he be irritated for her and betrayed his family? All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
She took a shower to calm herself down.
Zac was leaning on the bed, watching the 3D building model on the computer.
Essie lay on the bed next to him and began to play IPad in silence.
Zac rolled his eyes and glanced at what Essie was looking at?
He was sweating slightly. Essie started actually studying the fate something. It seemed that she had been greatly stimulated in this matter!
"Honey, it can only be for fun. You can't take it seriously." He smiled and stroked her head.
"I don't want to be impeached, but is there anyone else who is serious enough to impeach me at a family meeting?" She said crossly. She couldn't sit still and wait for death. She had to spend the whole night studying it so that she could have a good fight with that annoying mother-in-law tomorrow. Even if she had to leave, she would be the one who offered to leave, holding her head high, instead of being dejected and driven away.
Zac put down his computer and held her in his arms. It seemed that someone was stirring up trouble again in front of his wife. "Don't worry. I'm with you. Everything will be fine."
"If the whole family agrees to let us divorce, will you still be able to stick your mind?" Essie didn't feel better after his words. How could he be able to struggle with the whole family?
Zac deliberately sighed and showed a very helpless expression. "If that's the case, the situation will be difficult to handle..." He swallowed back the words on the tip of his tongue, which made her heart freezing. She knew that once the whole family started to be against her, he would compromise and flinch. He knew clearly that the family was more important than a beauty!
Indignantly, she cast a sidelong glance at the IPad and didn't take any notice of him. After she finished the fight with her dear mother-in-law, she would take reprisals against him and divorce him. Then she valiantly walked out of the gate of the house valiantly.
Taking a look at her tightly frowned eyebrows and round face, Zac said mischievously, "honey, you don't want to leave me, right?"
"Don't flatter yourself. You just like the peacock flaunting its tail!" Essie rolled her eyes at him.
"Honey, do you know what your biggest characteristic is?" Holding his hands and the head, Zac looked at her leisurely.
"What?" She spit out one word.
"Liar." His handsome face was so close to her that she could feel his warm breath, as if kissing her indirectly. "I wish I could be free tomorrow. But I can't be slandered by superstition and nonsense, and I shouldn't be driven away. Although I'm a grass root, I have my dignity, which cannot be trampled on casually." Her voice was not only aggrieved but also stubborn. Never did she bow to any evil force, but the more braver she was.
"But honey, can you really handle the elders without my help?" With his arms around his chest, it seemed that he was waiting for her to ask for help. However, Essie gritted her teeth and refused to give in as if she was in a rage. He had decided to give up on her, and he was no longer the strong mountain she could rely on. "We're birds of the same feather, and when the disaster comes, we'd better rely on ourselves. I don't want to disappoint you when the chances are higher."
Zac frowned and looked a little gloomy. "Honey, don't you trust me?"
"Don't think that I don't know what you're planning in your mind," she pouted.
Zac touched his chin. His eyes were deep and sharp. "Say it."
"You must be ready to act according to the changing situation and be a fence sitter on both sides. If I have the upper hand, you are on my side; if I don't have the upper hand, you will betray me and let me down." "Only a fool will find an ally like you, who is not of strong will," she added, staring at him with her hands on her hips with contempt.
"Honey, why are you looking at me like that?" Zac sighed and looked rather disappointed.
"Am I not right?" It seemed that she had seen through him.
"It seems that you don't know me at all." Zac shook his head with a bitter smile. Her little brain was likely to suffer from foolish sometimes. As long as it was related to him, she would be so muddled that he was speechless.
In fact, she was not muddled, but she thought that the question was too realistic. "If you can't get both a fish and a bear, you will definitely choose a more valuable bear rather than a fish that can be found everywhere, won't you?" She said firmly.
"Who is the bear? Who is the fish?" Zac said, raising his eyebrows.
"Of course I am the fish." Essie uttered haltingly, pouting. Reality was always cruel and heavy.
"You can't swim. Why are you so stupid?" Zac smiled and flicked her forehead.
"I'm serious. Don't make fun of me, okay?" She clenched her fist and hit him hard on his shoulder. He suddenly reached out his hand and grabbed her wrist. He pulled her into his arms and said, "honey,
don't belittle yourself. You are not confident."
"I'm a very realistic person, not a silly and honey girl who keeps dreaming all day long." She tried to push him away, but he hugged her tightly and refused to let her go. "Idiot, what if I say you are a bear in my eyes?"
"It must be a trick." She simply replied. She didn't believe what Zac said. Essie thought she was just a substitute who could be changed at any time. After all, she was not of much value to him.
"You are tender and soft. You can warm the bed. And you are so stupid that you are easily teased and muddled. You are very easily deceived. There are many good virtues of you." Caressing her cheek, Zac wore a teasing smile on his face.
She spit out blood! Were that good virtues? In his eyes, she was nothing but a thorn in the flesh. She could just make trouble for him.
"Go away. Don't disturb my study." She was so angry that her hair even stood on end. Her little feet seemed to take revenge and she tried her best to kick his legs.
"Honey, learning such thing is bad for your health. You'd better do your duty as a wife and take care of your husband." Zac turned over.
"No way! Don't touch me tonight!" She beat and kicked hard, trying to fight against him, but failed. Her little hands were soon gripped and pinned above her head, and her long legs were caught and unable to move. Weak as she was, she was nothing but a lamb. How could she resist a fierce cheetah king like him? She could only be slaughtered and eaten obediently.
"Honey, I like your play." A devilish smile brushed on his face. He stared at her eyes, which were burning like fire, and her cheeks flushed like a ripe Washington apple. "Asshole!" she cursed. She said
angrily.
"You know that already, do you?" He kissed her red lips lightly, as if to tease her. She turned her head left and right, but couldn't avoid him. "I have to study, or after tomorrow, you will have no chance to bully me."
"Honey, you should know that if I lock you up, you will never be able to escape from the cage, except for my permission." His voice was light, like a night wind that broke into the window, but it contained some invisible firm power, which was invisible.
She was stunned and looked at him with her eyes wide open. His expression was unfathomable, like the vast sky outside the window with secrets that could not be found. Before she could figure out what he meant, his mouth had covered hers, and then she could no longer think...
The next day's family meeting was strongly requested by Mary. Even though she was harshly reprimanded by Albert, she did not change her mind. She felt frustrated every day as long as Essie was at home, as if her former rival in love turned defeat into victory and gained the upper hand.
Sitting on the chair, Essie was calm and only showed a trace of dissatisfaction for Zac on her face. Essie planned to get up early and learn more, but she was knocked out by him. It was almost noon when she opened her eyes in a daze. She could only meditate temporarily and nourish herself. After all, she was rather familiar with it. The grandmother in Yi family was an old superstitious person, and she had to check the birth date whatever she did. Essie had to be forced to learn something.
"I invited everyone here today to discuss the marriage between Zac and Essie. Yesterday, I went to the Huang Temple to check the birth dates for them. The master said that Essie was an extremely evil who would hurt her husband and make the family feel restless. He even plot a story for them. It seems that they were in danger soon if they get married. So my suggestion is that if they really can't be together,
it's better to let them divorce before the wedding ceremony begins. After all, our family had been through a disaster, we can't go through it again. "
Albert casted a glance at her. Women in the middle age were indeed all unreasonable. He took a sip of tea and turned to Essie. "Essie, do you have anything to say to your mommy?"
With a slight smile, Essie said, "Dad, mom, grandpa, grandma, and elders, We can't say the superstition is worthy of believing. We only know that anything we hear from others needs to be confirmed by our own assertion and inspection. So take the master of destiny as an example. This is the so-called the face of an extremely evil. " Essie turned on the projector, and uploaded the pictures online. "bee eyes, wolf forehead, high cheekbones, aquiline nose, the eyebrows were as low as it close to the eyes. These are the typical features of a woman with bad luck to her husband. Please look at me, do I look like this?"
"Nope." Sally shook her head.
Zac grinned in his heart. Essie had made a full preparation and showed the picture to the whole family.
Mary's eyes flashed a cold light. The little bitch was actually making a group of pictures to challenge the authority of her mother-in-law. Did she want to rebel?
"The master of the Huang Temple is famous for his miraculous medicine. Many celebrates and dignitaries in Dragon City would ask him to check the birth dates. He won't be wrong."
