Chapter 368: Stubborn as a Mule




This chapter is updated by wuxiaworld.eu
Ah! Get married?
Even Xiang Wan, who was quite a calm person, was stunned by the news.
Previously, she had felt that Fang Yuanyuan seemed troubled and was keeping something from her.
She had never thought that Yuanyuan was actually thinking of marriage.
That’s too daring of her!
Since Xiang Wan did not reply, her mom started to question her.
“Did she talk to you on this matter?”
“Nope
”
“Do you know the man she wanted to marry?”
“
 She didn’t tell eldest aunt?”
“She only said that she wanted to get married, but as to who she wanted to marry, no matter how we probed or pressed her for an answer, that stubborn girl refused to reveal anything! Do you think she’s being abducted or something?”
“
”
Fang Yuanyuan was definitely together with Huang He.
However, if she did not tell anyone at home about Huang He, of course Xiang Wan wouldn’t rat on her.
Under her mom’s “bombardment” as well as Bai Muchuan’s “ravenous” gaze, Xiang Wan felt numbness at her scalp as well as realized how troublesome the situation was.
“Mom, this is definitely not so serious. Don’t worry so much
”
“Not serious? This is still not serious enough? You youngsters can really scare the hell out of us! She was just fine a few days back and suddenly, she wanted to get married
 Your eldest aunt is so angry! Fine then! Your youngest aunt is thinking of bringing your eldest aunt to Xi City tomorrow first thing in the morning!”
What!
Xiang Wan was shocked.
“
 Mom! You must persuade them not to be so rash!”
“But she can’t just say she wants to get married whenever she wants to! We don’t even know who is that person she wanted to marry. How could she do this
? Even though I’m not her mom, I wouldn’t agree to this either! How can anyone do that?”
Agree

Fang Yuanyuan is being too impulsive in this matter!
No matter what, she should have brought Huang He along to visit her parents and speak with them.
Xiang Wan sighed softly.
“Mom! Let me understand what is happening first from Yuanyuan. Do calm down and don’t do anything rash for that might hurt her. Yuanyuan may seem like she’s heartless, but she knows what she wants. If we force her too much, she might simply go ahead with what she wanted to do
 Mom, please tell eldest and youngest aunt to hold their horses and wait for my news, alright?”
Her mom agreed.
It was because they were family; of course, they would be worried.
They didn’t want anything bad to happen to Fang Yuanyuan either



“What’s the matter?” Bai Muchuan squeezed Xiang Wan’s hand.
Xiang Wan finally recovered from her daze.
Heaving a sigh of relief, she turned slowly to see Bai Muchuan.
“Yuanyuan said she wanted to get married! Everyone’s now worried about her!”
Oh! Bai Muchuan mouthed slowly. “This is simple!”
Mm? Xiang Wan had a perplexed look.
“Tell your mom what you’re doing now,” snickered Bai Muchuan snickered, “she’ll change her attention away from Fang Yuanyuan right away
”
“Bai Muchuan!” Xiang Wan gritted her teeth, wishing she could teach him a lesson.
“
”
Bai Muchuan surrendered by raising both his hands. They could not continue what they had wanted to do earlier due to the interruption. He pulled the pillow up and lay on it, rubbing his temples. “Go ahead and give her a call!”
Xiang Wan could finally relax.
“Aye! This girl really knows how to create trouble!”
She adjusted her clothes and dialed Fang Yuanyuan’s number.
However, the latter’s phone had been switched off.
“Umm
”
Xiang Wan looked at Bai Muchuan in confusion. “Her phone’s switched off. What happened?”
Bai Muchuan shrugged his shoulders. He did not know either.
Xiang Wan was now a little nervous. She quickly messaged Fang Yuanyuan in WeChat and QQ respectively.
However, she did not get any reply.
“Bai Muchuan, could something have happened again?”
Xiang Wan stiffened when she thought that Fang Yuanyuan might have gotten abducted again.
Bai Muchuan shook his head. “She’s definitely fine since she’s with Huang He.”
Looking at his confident expression, Xiang Wan frowned. “You sure?”
“Certainly,” Bai Muchuan glanced at her. “Huang He’s now an important individual under protection. He’s in a treatment area no one could enter. They were together this morning, what could have happened?”
Xiang Wan was quite relieved to hear that.
However, she was not entirely reassured.
“Help me ask Huang He about Yuanyuan, please! Also
 ask them why they want to get married so suddenly.”
He did not say a word.
His gaze was on Xiang Wan’s face.
After hesitating for about half a minute, he finally agreed. “Alright!”
Huang He’s mobile phone was not switched off.
It did not take more than two rings when the call was picked up.
Bai Muchuan went straight to the point. “Is Fang Yuanyuan with you now?”
Huang He replied, “Yes.”
Bai Muchuan went straight to the point. “I heard both of you are getting married?”
“
”
Huang He did not reply.
Bai Muchuan frowned. “What’s the situation?”
“No,” denied Huang He, “we’re not getting married.”
“
”
Bai Muchuan glanced at Xiang Wan.
Since the ‘male lead’ denied this, was the marriage thing a joke after all?
Xiang Wan pressed her lips together and gave a meaningful look.
Bai Muchuan knew what she wanted him to ask. “Her family members could not get ahold of her and are very worried about her. They just caught my wife and was questioning her about it earlier! Let her take the call!”
Since Xiang Wan was in a hurry to know what happened, she immediately took the mobile phone from Bai Muchuan.
However, after some time, there was still no response from the other end.
“Hello
 Yuanyuan?”
It was still Huang He at the other end, and he sounded a little troubled.
“She
 refused to take the call!”
“
”
Fang Yuanyuan was really obstinate!
Bai Muchuan activated the handsfree mode and beckoned to Xiang Wan.
Xiang Wan then leaned against him but couldn’t resist raising her volume while speaking into the phone.
“Yuanyuan, talk to me. I have something to tell you!”
Over at the other end, she could faintly make out Fang Yuanyuan’s calm voice. “I won’t! I know you’re here to persuade me. I’ve already made my decision. I’m an adult and have control over my own marriage matters. I don’t need to listen to anyone’s advice. I just want to marry Huang He right away!”
Huang He’s mellow voice followed, “Yuanyuan
”
Fang Yuanyuan raised her volume a little. “Don’t butt in!”
Huang He spoke no more thereafter. “
”
Fang Yuanyuan continued her passionate cry. “It’s not up to you this time!”
Huang He still remained silent. “
”
Xiang Wan was somewhat dumbstruck when she heard their conversation.
She realized that this marriage thing Yuanyuan was trying to pull was actually a one-sided wish.
Silly Yuanyuan, why must you take the initiative? she thought.
She was really poisoned by a type of drug called Huang He!
Of course, Xiang Wan did know about what Fang Yuanyuan and Huang He had gone through at Vulture’s Mouth. However, hearing from others and having to experience the ordeal personally were two different things altogether. Hence, she could not understand the significance and importance of Huang He in Fang Yuanyuan’s heart

“Yuanyuan, take it slow. You don’t have to rush this
”
“Take it slowly? But I’m afraid it might be too late!”
“
”
Xiang Wan sighed while Bai Muchuan laughed. “I would like to say this. Even if you want to get married, you should wait for him to be able to get up and walk before you both register for marriage. Look at his current ‘disabled’ state; I don’t think you’re getting married, you’re out of your mind!”
“
”
He could rebut Yuanyuan so logically!
Fang Yuanyuan was always a little fearful of Bai Muchuan.
After hearing that, she kept quiet for a moment.
“Once he could walk, we’ll register our marriage!”
Huang He was anxious. “Yuanyuan, don’t be silly!”
Fang Yuanyuan replied abruptly, “I’m not silly, you’re the silly one! Once you’ve recovered, you’re going to continue what you’re doing. Do you think I don’t know that? By then, it would be so hard for us to even see each other. When can we ever be together? Huang He, if you don’t want to marry me, then you don’t love me at all!”
