The betrothal gift is 100,000 yuan, what does it mean to give 200,000

Chapter 319: The other side of Jiang Ning that you have never seen before, who can act like a spoiled brat!
Who should I choose?
The unspeakable answer is the forbidden fruit hanging on a tall tree in the Garden of Eden. The two spirit snakes growing in the garden would always look up at this fruit in between enjoying the rain and dew and a happy and beautiful life.

No one knows what it tastes like, but the more we don't know, the more we want to taste it, even if picking it will hurt each other.

But this is how the world works.

You can only gain if you lose, and you can only grow if you are hurt. No one can live this arduous life in peace and smoothness, not even those with a good family background or a kind character can escape this.

Jiang Ning and Jiang Yao are such good girls who deserve to be treated with courtesy by life, but they are still experiencing pain and struggle. From the darkness of childhood to the bright life of adulthood, from being autistic and discriminated against to healing each other. They hug each other tightly and look forward to a better tomorrow. As twins whose blood is thicker than water, they have the purest feelings in the world for each other, but fate has to make them stand in the middle of the same intersection, depriving them of the right to snuggle with each other.

"Is this the only way?" Chen Yuan felt like his throat was blocked by something, so he asked in a hoarse voice.

Jiang Ning was standing within a few steps of his reach, but he couldn't move forward. Before he got a real answer, he would never be able to reach Jiang Ning, no matter if he walked fast, walked slowly, or even ran like crazy, it was all the same. Although she never left, like an eternal shadow accompanying him, just a few feet away.

But, this is Jiang Ning.

There was light and darkness next to the street lamp. In the dim light, he could clearly see Ningning's profile hidden in the shadow. Her eyelashes were very long, slowly covering her eyes.

She didn't answer Chen Yuan's question, but blinked and asked back.

"Then what else do you want?"

"I……"

For Chen Yuan, Jiang Ning and Jiang Yao are two characters with completely different meanings in his growth path. He can clearly feel the huge gap between the two twins in personality, outlook on life and values.

He is confident that he can change Jiang Yao subtly. If one year doesn't work, then two years. If two years doesn't work, then three years. One day, Jiang Yao will accept his outrageous ideas. In Yaoyao's eyes, love and compromise are closely related.

However, Chen Yuan could always see Jiang Ning's stubbornness and persistence in her eyes, as well as countless unshakable things, including her judgment on the word "love".

Chen Yuan suddenly felt very irritated and had a headache, especially when her tone of questioning contained uncompromising doubt. At this moment, he suddenly felt that he was very selfish, and his complacency over the past few days really made him look like a clown.

Those things buried deep in his heart were like the dead bodies of animals buried in flowerpots. He covered them with a shovelful at a time, patting them down carefully. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there was no sign of anything on the surface. But as soon as he poured water on it, a rotten leg leaked out.

Now he just wanted to tear out this ugly corpse in one go.

He didn't want to be selfish or hurt anyone, and he was racking his brains to think of a solution.

But why did everyone want him to give an answer?
Why do Jiang Ning and Jiang Yao have to be twins?

Why did he have to abandon one?
Why is he at such a helpless age?

Why does this all have to happen so quickly?

The two stood face to face. Jiang Ning appeared calm on the surface, staring at Chen Yuan with her narrow and beautiful eyes, with a search for the answer in her eyes, but she did not notice that her lowered fingers were unconsciously rubbing the corner of her clothes.

The originally pure white corners of the clothes were wrinkled.

"I don't want to abandon you. Of course, I can't hurt Yaoyao. I like her very much." Chen Yuan said seriously.

"and then?"

"Can't we wait and talk about this? I know you think it's not good for three people to live together like this, but don't you think it's interesting? We have been giving each other warmth, right? It's not as absurd as imagined, but very happy and beautiful. I don't want it to end so soon..." Chen Yuan forced a stiff smile on his cheek and persuaded: "Maybe after a while, after a while, we can find a perfect solution instead of hurting each other."

This was the first time he spoke openly and honestly to Jiang Ning about his thoughts.

Of course Chen Yuan was nervous, so he kept looking into Jiang Ning's eyes, fearing that she would have some major emotional fluctuations, or would firmly oppose and laugh at him for being unreasonable, causing this heart-to-heart talk to completely collapse.

He didn't even say this to Jiang Yao.

Originally, he wanted to solve Yaoyao's problem first, because Yaoyao's heart was a simple equation, only needing X (her) plus Y (Chen Yuan) = a complete family. It could also be x+1, x, maybe they could discuss it.

He can't discuss it and he won't be slapped in the face.

On the other hand, Jiang Ning, Chen Yuan did not have the confidence to solve the problem, so he kept avoiding answering and just wrote "solution".

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ning looked at him for a long time, then turned around and said softly:
"Is it very happy and wonderful? You feel this way because we are compromising for you. If you don't really love you, who would be willing to give up your boyfriend? Isn't this a little funny?"

Chen Yuan heard this.

He was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

Jiang Ning suddenly curled her lips in relief, and even her steps became much lighter. She walked forward alone, holding her loose sleeves with her hands. The evening breeze made her long hair fly upwards, and the gray night sky sank and dissolved in the bottomless river.

The street lamps next to the benches are like isolated islands in the darkness.

She took one step after another, her figure lengthened and shortened by the light, disappearing and reappearing, until she was very far away from Chen Yuan, so far that she could not clearly see her ponytail swaying.

Jiang Ning suddenly turned around and wrinkled her nose which was red from the wind, her eyes sparkling.

"Chen Zai," she suddenly shouted, "With your personality and family background, you can pursue any girl. I really think you are excellent. I can see your future. Anyone who marries you will definitely be very happy."

Jiang Ning's voice was not as gentle as usual, but it was extremely lively and energetic, as if it was her at the age of eighteen, walking on a campus far away in a foreign country with a book in her arms.

At that time, I had a high ponytail, my eyes were filled with infinite longing for the future, and I was not so reserved and dignified. Like every eighteen-year-old girl, my snow-white sneakers sparkled in the sun.

Chen Yuan couldn't see her expression and could only listen to her shouting.

"Even if I were to choose a hundred times, I would firmly choose to marry you. I really love you more than you can imagine."

"I'm not saying this to force you to choose me. I just want you to know that if you love someone, you should be wholeheartedly devoted to her... Don't let her down, don't be indecisive. I won't blame you, I believe Yaoyao thinks the same way, do you understand?"

She was far away, but her voice was clear, and every word entered Chen Yuan's ears. In an instant, he felt as if a basin of ice water was poured on him, and his beating heart seemed to be dragged into the abyss by a heavy stone.

Chen Yuan thought silently. He certainly understood the weight of Ningning's words, especially the sentence "If I don't really love you".

He received unparalleled affirmation, but he couldn't feel happy at all.

There are actually such moments in life, as if standing on the edge of a cliff, listening to these heavy words, Chen Yuan only felt his throat dry, his chest swollen, and his ears buzzing as if he suddenly suffered from tinnitus.

His clenched hands were sweating profusely.

Unspeakable guilt and bitterness gnawing at my heart.

Chen Yuan stood there. Jiang Ning stopped talking and turned to walk forward. Her steps were so fast that in a moment he could only see a shaking little white dot.

He wanted to chase after her, but what should he say?
Tonight, Chen Yuan wanted to give Jiang Ning a gift. It should have been a very beautiful scene, but he thought everything was too simple and also looked down on Ning Ning.

There is no doubt that he was struggling inside and wished he could cut open his chest and breathe some fresh air to relieve the feeling of suffocation.

Jiang Ning didn't say enough. She didn't even say that two sisters dating the same boy would be ridiculed and they didn't know how to explain it to their relatives and friends. She didn't even say that the Chinese law stipulates that only one man can have one wife, and no matter how powerful a person is, he can't change the cold law. She didn't even say that in this equal society, an unofficial relationship is an insult to a girl and will make people feel insecure.

But Chen Yuan understood.

Suddenly, Chen Yuan seemed to have figured something out. He took a step and looked in the direction Jiang Ning was going.

Then he quickened his pace and caught up.

"Do you regret going to Bauhinia Company? You think that if I don't choose you, you will leave in the end, and everything you have done will be meaningless, right?" he asked while chasing me.

"I do regret it, you are right, but it is too late to regret it now. I haven't started working in the company yet."

Jiang Ning pursed her lips, her eyes flickering.

She didn't expect Chen Yuan to be so thoughtful and guessed why she was so aggressive today. In fact, she regretted it the second after she agreed to be Chen Yuan's secretary, and thought about it again and again while cooking in the kitchen.

A woman's mind is very complicated, so complicated that even they themselves can't understand it.

Chen Yuan finally ran over, his chest heaving, and he couldn't stand steadily. He couldn't wait to say: "What if I agree to you now? If I choose you..." Jiang Ning stopped instantly and stared at Chen Yuan without any expression on her face. The seriousness in her eyes made people feel scared.

"You...say it again?" Suddenly, a myriad of hopes surged in her heart, the kind that couldn't be hidden at all, and even her tone of voice changed.

Can be imagined.

How much she was looking forward to this answer.

Although I never pressed the issue, I always pretended to be nonchalant and waited, my thoughts flowing quietly like a river.

But she had dreamed of this moment and these words so many times.

"I choose you. I now understand that a three-person relationship is wrong, and I think clearly. I have liked you from the beginning to the end, from the time I pulled you into the room while playing games, to the first time I met you in the university classroom, and then Yaoyao pretended to be you to come to me to get back together. Jiang Ning, you are the one who moved me from the beginning to the end," Chen Yuan said only a few words. His mouth was dry, and he saw Jiang Ning's eyes were red. He hurriedly took out the gift he bought from his pocket: "Today, I just bought you a gift with my salary. I asked you to take a walk by the river to give it to you... I didn't know that my hesitation would hurt you. I'm sorry, Ningning, I should have understood it earlier."

A woman is most beautiful when her cheeks or eyes are red.

Jiang Ning lowered her head and looked at the jewelry box that Chen Yuan handed over to her. She hesitated for a moment, then reached out to take it.

"what……"

"Open it and take a look."

She exerted a little force with her hands and opened the square white box. Suddenly, a pure blue gem appeared. In the dark night, it flashed a crystal clear light, and there were pendants made of diamonds hanging around it.

Left side, right side.

This is a pair of extremely expensive earrings.

Jiang Ning lowered her head and her expression could not be seen clearly. She was silently thinking about something.

"Then..." She held the box and began to rub the corner of her clothes, saying in a very low voice: "What should we do about Yaoyao? Have you thought about it?"

"Don't tell her yet. After her birthday, I'll pick a suitable time to tell her clearly. Can you give me some time?"

"OK……"

She bit her lip and lowered her head almost to her chest. There was no emotion in her answer, so low that Chen Yuan thought it was an illusion.

He was confused in an instant.

Is this happy or unhappy?

Suddenly, Jiang Ning reached out her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes. She took off the headband that tied her hair. With the hair on both sides covering her face, her cheeks were hidden even deeper.

But she couldn't hide the tears that kept falling, and they flowed out one after another as big as beans. She wiped her cheeks hard again.

"I hate you, you stinky Chen." She pushed Chen Yuan, her voice sounding a little coquettish and hoarse like crying.

"Ah?" Chen Yuan suspected that he had heard it wrong.

He had really never heard Jiang Ning act like a spoiled child before. He felt a little dazed and his heart was filled with shock.

"I hate you, I hate you...Why didn't you tell me earlier? You made me scared for so long. Do you know how sad I was when I thought about leaving..." She pushed Chen Yuan gently, not with much force.

"You are the only boy I like since I was a child, and you still treat me like this..."

"Do you know that it's tiring to keep so many things in my heart? I also have bad emotions that I want to vent. I also want to be unrestrained in front of you like my sister..."

She was mumbling something and pushing Chen Yuan, but she lost her balance and fell into his arms.

Jiang Ning didn't move again, and Chen Yuan suddenly felt that she was hugging him tightly and burying her cheek in his chest.

Like a lazy cat.

Ningning looks so strong, but she also has such a delicate side. Chen Yuan seemed to suddenly recall her acting like a spoiled child on the voice call.

It’s really... cute!
"I'm going to bite you."

"Ok."

In response to this unreasonable request, Chen Yuan put his hand to her mouth, and half of Jiang Ning's cheek was exposed from the edge of his sweatshirt.

However, Chen Yuan, who stretched his body straight, did not feel any pain.

Just a kiss gently fell on his hand.

"Why don't you bite?"

"Your hands are so beautiful, I can't bear to part with them."

"Are you Ningning?"

"I'm."

"Then who am I?"

"You are my Chenzi, mine alone, and I want to marry you."

"...Are you going to hold me forever?"

"want."

"Can I kiss you?"

"You can kiss me as you like. I will always kiss you as you like from now on."

"Ningning, to be honest, I'm a little uncomfortable with it."

"Just tonight, I want to act like a spoiled child, I don't want to envy others."

"Then you try it."

"Chen, I want you to carry me to the bench, okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay, the bones are a little soft."

"Chen cub~"

"Okay, okay, hug me again, hug me again, hold my neck tight."

"Can you put the earrings on me, Chenzi?"

"can."

“How much did you pay for it?”

"not much……"

"Give me your salary card for safekeeping."

"what!?"

"I was lying to you." Jiang Ning tilted her head, her eyes curved, and a charming smile appeared on her face. She pinched the sea-blue gem earrings and whispered, "Do I look good?"
