She immediately picked up, afraid that Li Qingtian would hang up the phone later, "Hello, why did you suddenly call me? We're getting engaged tomorrow, so it's a good idea to meet tomorrow. " Ling Lan said in a gentle tone, excited to the point that his hands were dancing when he thought of the two of them tomorrow.
After waiting for five years, she was finally going to get what she wanted.
Gu Fanxing, look, when I say Li Qingtian is mine, he is mine! You will never be able to take it from me!
"I'm at your door." Li Qingtian said into the phone.
Ah!" "Why are you here!" Ling Yun was so shy that he stood up and paced around the room uneasily. She didn't expect Li Qingtian to come visit at this time.
"Qing Tian, wait for me for a while, I'll come down and open the door for you. My parents are at home right now to prepare for tomorrow's engagement, and you should also see if there's anything you need to change." Ling Lan said happily. Without waiting for Li Qingtian to speak, he quickly went downstairs to open the door.
Li Qingtian hung up the phone, got off the car, and stared at the Ling Family entrance. His eyes were long, he lit up a cigarette he had not smoked for a long time, took a deep breath, and puffed out a cloud of smoke.
Li Quan got down from the carriage and stood outside the Ling Family residence with a walking stick in his hand.
In less than two minutes, the Ling Family's gate slowly opened. Ling Lan walked over quickly in a pair of flat shoes, and just as she was about to jump into Li Qingtian's embrace, seeing Li Quan standing beside him, she immediately dispelled that idea.
Even so, she would still welcome him with a smile. After all, her matter with Li Qingtian was already decided, and could not be changed.
"Grandfather, why are you here so late?" It's not too late to see you tomorrow, right? " Ling Lan laughed and asked, standing obediently in front of Li Quan.
"Where are your parents?" Li Quan asked.
"They are preparing things for me and Qing Tian at home. The hotel has confirmed that their relatives only invited close relatives. They didn't do anything extravagant." Ling Lan explained. He originally wanted to support Li Quan, but was rejected. He could only follow beside Li Qingtian.
After entering the villa, Ling Lan immediately ordered the servants to prepare tea and pastries, and then ordered people to invite his parents.
"Qingtian, why did you look for me so late?" Ling Lan asked in confusion, sitting down beside Li Qingtian. Whenever she wanted to get close to him, he would unconsciously pull away from her, causing her to suddenly feel a sense of crisis.
"Sorry, Ling Lan ?" Before Li Qingtian could even finish speaking, Ling Rong and Fang Yimei who was dressed in their plain cheongsam came down from upstairs, "My lord, why have you come so late at night?"
Seeing that, Li Quan stood up politely using his walking stick, "It's my old man's fault to be disturbing you so late."
"You are too polite. What do you mean by disturbing me? Please take a seat." Ling Rong was very courteous, the Ling family marrying the Li family was something he did not expect.
"I wonder, what business do you two have for us to come here so late at night?" Ling Rong sat in front of Li Quan and asked.
"Sigh ?" Li Quan took a deep breath, and then used his walking stick to stand up again, "Apologies, I, old bones, am here to apologize for my grandson! Qing Tian and Ling Lan are not fated, for tomorrow's engagement, cancel it ? "
Li Quan's words immediately shocked everyone present! Ling Lan also suddenly stood up and stared at Li Qingtian in disbelief. She did not expect that on the day before their engagement, they would actually cancel the wedding! She could not accept this!
"My lord, I am afraid you are joking with us! Cancel the engagement ceremony? Isn't that a joke? "
"No, it's because Qing Tian has an illegitimate child outside that isn't compatible with Miss Ling Lan. Rather than forcing himself to be together with her, why don't I explain it clearly to all of you? I have already severely punished him. " Li Quan threw his old face out.
"Qingtian, it won't happen! You told me it wouldn't! How could you do such a thing! You must be lying to me, right? " 's mind was in a mess when he heard the reason for the cancellation of the engagement. It was not easy for her to look forward to the engagement ceremony but in the end, she, Ling Lan, still laughed so hard and still couldn't get anything in the end!
How could she be willing! She couldn't accept it!
Her tears flowed down her face like a broken kite. She wanted to personally hear the truth from Li Qingtian!
"Will you tell me? Why did you have to do this to me? Tomorrow is our engagement ceremony! I have already invited relatives and a bunch of sisters. Can we talk about this after the engagement ceremony? "
She didn't care about anything and could marry him. Even if he really had an illegitimate child, she was willing to be a stepmother and compromise. As long as she could marry Li Qingtian, she was willing to do so.
"Ling Lan, I'm sorry." Li Qingtian sincerely apologized, "I cannot be engaged to you."
"You're lying to me, right? I don't believe it, you only got engaged to me because you loved me, right? If you don't love me, why did you agree to the engagement? Who was that person! Say it. " Ling Lan excitedly pulled at Li Qingtian's sleeves and begged him.
From start to finish, she was unwilling to believe that a man who had taken care of her for five years would suddenly say that he no longer took care of her. Why? ?
"Ling Lan girl, don't be sad, this is all my fault, I should not have agreed to your engagement, and I will not harm you like this, my Li Family will take responsibility! I will never let your reputation be affected. " Li Quan said.
"My dear sir, isn't it too irresponsible to say such words now!?" Since he was going to cancel the engagement ceremony, why didn't he say so earlier and at this critical juncture? We've already sent out invitations! How can we, Ling Lan, face up to anything tomorrow? "Does anyone dare to come and propose marriage in the future?" Ling Rong cried out for Ling Lan in anger.
"Qing Tian, this is your fault, what do you want us Ling Lan to do!" Fang Yimei scolded. She had expected things to turn out like this, but she did not agree to this marriage!
"Mom!" Don't say anymore! " Ling Lan cried loudly, she sat down on the sofa weakly, she was unwilling to face the reality, "Qing Tian, can you tell me that all of this is fake? What's wrong with me, Ling Lan, you have to treat me like this."
"This has nothing to do with you. It's my own fault. I must take responsibility for my child. I cannot let you down." Li Qingtian said expressionlessly.
It was unexpected that he and Ling Lan would break off the engagement, but it was within expectations. In his heart, he did not even love Ling Lan, and he felt that no one would be happy if they just barely got together.
"Your child, where did you get your child? In these five years, you haven't had anything to do with other women at all. Tell me, where did your child come from? " These past five years, she had investigated Li Qingtian's life thoroughly, how could he suddenly have a child!
