Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1074: Chapter 1075: I Also Think There’s a Problem...

Tobanya remained silent.

Meng Zhuqing waited for quite a while, and seeing that Tobanya still did not speak, he turned to leave. His mood became downcast again, very much so; he did not want her to change her mind at all.

Yet, he also had the feeling that what she had said just now was a joke.

Just as Meng Zhuqing’s hand was on the door latch, about to open the door and leave, Tobanya finally spoke, her tone neither cold nor warm, ”Won’t.”

Meng Zhuqing’s deeply downcast mood was instantly healed.

Turning around, he smiled as he looked at the person lying on the bed in the faint moonlight, then Meng Zhuqing left the room contentedly.

Of course, he did not leave immediately.

After exiting Tobanya’s room and closing the door for her, Meng Zhuqing stood outside the door with a silly smile for a while, then went to the window and tapped lightly. Only then did Meng Zhuqing really leave.

Hearing Meng Zhuqing tapping on her window, Tobanya, who was pretending to be asleep, softly cursed with a laugh, ”Fool.”

Immediately after, the smile on Tobanya’s face disappeared.

Her eyes slowly opened, her gaze filled with emotions so complex that even she didn’t understand them.

After a long while, Tobanya murmured softly, ”I lied to you, fool. I will surely regret it.”

...

When Meng Zhuqing announced that Tobanya had agreed to marry him, not only An Jing and Gong Juechen were surprised, but Xiao Changyi also looked astonished.

”Did she really agree?” An Jing asked in disbelief. Given Tobanya’s personality, even if she agreed, it would not be so soon, so she really did not believe it.

But she also believed that Meng Zhuqing would not lie, and then she asked this question.

”Yes, she agreed. I even asked her if she would change her mind, and she said she wouldn’t,” Meng Zhuqing said truthfully.

”This...” An Jing didn’t know why Tobanya would do this either.

Gong Juechen was more direct, ”Zhuzhu, I don’t mean to be offensive, and don’t hit me, but your sweetheart is probably just toying with you. Even if she has come to terms with it and let go, she would not accept you so quickly. It’s just her personality.”

After pausing, Gong Juechen concluded, ”There must be something fishy when someone acts out of the ordinary. Her prompt agreement definitely has some issues.”

Meng Zhuqing had not expected Tobanya to agree so readily either. Even though Tobanya said she would not change her mind, Meng Zhuqing still did not feel secure. Now, hearing what Gong Juechen said, he felt even less secure.

Involuntarily, Meng Zhuqing looked towards An Jing and Xiao Changyi, hoping for some reassurance from them.

Unexpectedly, An Jing said, ”I also think there’s something amiss.”

In an era that emphasized the continuation of the family line, a woman’s inability to have children was not something one could simply get over.

It was less about not believing that Tobanya had agreed to marry Meng Zhuqing, and more about not believing that she could so quickly get over her infertility.

Tobanya truly did like Meng Zhuqing, and she would not want him to be without an heir. Naturally, she would not agree to the marriage.

But now, Tobanya had agreed...

There really was a problem!

Hearing An Jing say that too, Meng Zhuqing now had absolutely no sense of security.

”What should your subordinate do?” Meng Zhuqing really didn’t know what to do. He had clearly asked already, and she had said she wouldn’t change her mind. But seeing Gong Juechen and the others like this, he felt she would definitely change her mind...

Gong Juechen blurted out, ”Simple, just force the issue. I have a remedy here, I’ll give you one, and I guarantee you—”
