Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 4

Chapter 4: Break Off The Marriage Engagement (2)

“… This–” Being questioned in public, the village chief was speechless because he knew that what she said was right.

Tang Zizheng was dumbfounded when he heard Duan Yixin questioning his grandfather. Seeing him just staring at Duan Yixin in a daze, Liang Jiaying felt threatened for no reason. Seeing the way he looked at Duan Yixin, she seemed to be going to lose something very important. She reminded him with a gentle tug on his sleeve, frowning in worry.

Tang Zizheng felt a tug on his sleeve, came to his senses, and turned to look at Liang Jiaying. When he saw her frown, he felt guilty for no reason.

He turned back to glare at Duan Yixin and said, “It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. With your jealous character, no man will be willing to marry you!”

Duan Yixin raised her eyebrows slightly after hearing his words. She found these people’s way of thinking quite fascinating. Although in her original world, it was not uncommon for men to have wives at home and mistresses outside, it was a shameful behavior that would be looked down upon by society.

But here, when her cheap fiancé said those shameless words in public, these villagers did not react at all. It was like what he was saying was the norm here.

Realizing this, Duan Yixin frowned and thought, ‘It seems that the culture of this world is very different from my world. If I don’t terminate this marriage engagement when I have the opportunity, it will be difficult for me to do whatever I want in the future. I should strike while the iron is hot.’

Thinking of this, Duan Yixin asked, “You mean, before marrying a wife, you want to take that young lady as your concubine first?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Liang Jiaying’s complexion paled. Her eyes reddened as she said aggrievedly, “Miss Duan, the relationship between Elder Brother Zheng and I is not as you thought. We– we are only friends. If you don’t like me, then– then I just leave this village.”

Looking at Liang Jiaying’s expression, which made it seem like someone bullied her, Duan Yixin knew that this young woman was not as simple and weak as she appeared.

She tilted her head slightly, calmly looked at Liang Jiaying, and said, “This young lady, you overthink. I just stated the facts. You two came together and held hands in public. If you didn’t have any affair with him, why did you let him hold your hand and touch your body casually? Is this a normal way for friends to get along?”

After listening to her words, the villagers realized that things were indeed as she said. Tang Zizheng and Liang Jiaying did come together. They also displayed intimacy in public without taking Duan Yixin’s feelings into account. Tang Zizheng even pointed at his fiancée and shouted that he wanted to break off the engagement, not giving Duan Yixin even a little bit of respect or care about her reputation.

If he hadn’t had an ambiguous relationship with Liang Jiaying, would Tang Zizheng have terminated his marriage engagement with Duan Yixin without reason? As long as a man has a brain, he will know how to choose between a woman who is good at work and a woman who can only cry and needs someone to serve.

Tang Zizheng saw that Liang Jiaying was almost crying because of Duan Yixin’s words and quickly stood in front of Liang Jiaying protectively.

He looked at Duan Yixin with obvious disgust in his eyes and said, “Duan Yixin, I never knew you were such a vicious woman. How could you tarnish Ying’er’s reputation without reason? What’s more, I never like you. I only love Ying’er. So, you should stop coveting things that don’t belong to you! You really let me down!”

Duan Yixin almost forgot about her excellent upbringing and rolled her eyes at Tang Zizheng’s shameless words. Chi Xinru, who was standing behind Duan Yixin, was really fed up with Tang Zizheng’s shamelessness.

She stepped forward and retorted, “Tang Zizheng! You are shameless! It was you who tarnished Xin Xin’s reputation for no reason and brought your lover with you in public to show off your affection unscrupulously! Who do you think you are to dare to say that Xin Xin has let you down? If you don’t have a mirror, why don’t you go pee and take a look at yourself?! Look who failed whom!”

After being scolded by Chi Xiaru in front of everyone, Tang Zizheng was so angry that his face turned red. He flicked his sleeves and said, “No wonder Yixin became like this. It turns out it’s because she grew up with a shrew like you!”

“What did you say?! I dare you to repeat it!”

Before Chi Xiaru could rush towards Tang Zizheng and tear off his face, Duan Yixin grabbed her wrist and shook her head at her. Although she was furious, Chi Xiaru also knew that this was a personal affair between Duan Yixin and Tang Zizheng. Even if she wanted to help her best friend, she had no right to interfere in their personal affairs.

Duan Yixin doesn’t want to waste her precious time on this pair of shameless men and green tea women anymore and says, “Don’t talk too much nonsense. If you want to break off the marriage engagement, then do it as soon as possible and stop wasting my time. I still have to go back and clean up my house.”

Seeing that she finally agreed, Tang Zizheng took a deep breath to calm down, then took out a small, long wooden box from his sleeve and said, “This is the marriage contract between your family and mine. Once we exchange the marriage contracts, there will be no relationship between us.”

Duan Yixin glanced at the small, long wooden box, then looked at Chi Xinru and asked, “Xinru, do you know where I put that kind of box before? I don’t remember.”
