Chapter 848 Mom, you must believe that day will never come.
"Alright, stop talking. Shanshan, are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
After Mu Qianqian calmed down, her concern shifted to her daughter's health.
"Mom, I don't feel unwell anywhere, just occasional morning sickness."
When Shanshan answered, she carefully observed her mother's expression.
Seeing that her mother wasn't angry or blaming her, she felt relieved.
"Your morning sickness isn't too bad, thankfully my little grandson isn't causing you any trouble. From now on, Mom will arrange for a nutritionist to cook for you and help take care of your health."
"Thank you, Mom, you're so kind!"
A smile appeared on Shan Shan's face.
"Yu Heng, I'm asking you, are you willing to secretly marry Shan Shan and give her all your shares in the Yu Group?"
Mo Tingye looked at Yu Heng, observing his expression.
"As long as you agree to let me marry Shanshan and get a marriage certificate, I'm willing to do anything. What I have originally belonged to Shanshan, including the shares."
Yu Heng agreed without the slightest hesitation or doubt.
"What will you do if your grandfather and parents object?"
Mo Tingye asked this question deliberately to test his son-in-law.
"Grandpa is overjoyed that I'm married and Shanshan is pregnant. He won't stop me. As for my parents, they won't say a word as long as it's my own choice."
"That's good! I've already had my assistant draft the secret marriage agreement. You can sign it."
"Dad, do we really have to keep this a secret? It's not fair to Shanshan. Think about it, she's the rightful young mistress of the Yu family. If we hide her identity, it will cause all sorts of bad rumors about her. For example, people will say that she got married because she was pregnant and that she's not liked by the Yu family. Or that our marriage is a political one and we don't have any feelings for each other. Then people will say that she's just a tool for having a baby. Also, those women who want to marry into the Yu family will harass me because of this, which will hurt Shanshan and is bad for her health and the baby!"
Yu Heng tried his best to persuade him, and even analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of a secret marriage.
"Of course, Dad, I'm not against secret marriages. I'm just trying to put myself in Shanshan's shoes and think about her best interests."
"You're still so young, won't announcing your marriage still attract criticism from the outside world?"
"Dad, there are so many college students getting married these days. They're so young, and nobody seems to think it's wrong. What do you think? Is it better to keep it a secret or announce it publicly?"
Mo Tingye felt that he was about to be persuaded by his son-in-law.
Upon closer examination, the disadvantages of secret marriages outweigh the advantages.
"Besides, many wealthy families marry young. By giving Shanshan a formal title, I can prevent her from being subjected to all sorts of negative gossip, speculation, or even humiliation when the outside world suddenly finds out that she and I were secretly married."
"this…"
“Dad, I also think my brother-in-law makes a good point. It’s like if Erhan and I hadn’t gone public with our marriage and had secretly married and had children, and then the media suddenly broke the news, what would they say?”
Cheng Sinuo asked her father-in-law.
“They will say that the eldest son of the Mo family is in a political marriage, that Miss Cheng is not liked by her in-laws and they are unwilling to reveal her identity, or that Miss Cheng and the eldest son of the Mo family have no feelings for each other and are a mismatched couple made up for the benefit of both parties. Our baby will also be criticized as a victim of a political marriage.”
"If we really do that, our baby will grow up in an environment where he or she is subjected to all kinds of verbal abuse. Is that good for the baby?"
"And then there's my second brother and his wife. If they were also secretly married, and it gets exposed by accident, they'll be questioned by the media or outsiders. They'll say that my sister-in-law is disliked by the Mo family because of her bad background, and that the Mo family is unwilling to give her a formal title, so they're unwilling to reveal her identity. Or they'll say something even worse, that my sister-in-law is a scheming woman who got pregnant by sleeping with someone and then used her child to gain status. They'll then intensify their slander against my sister-in-law. Dad, don't underestimate the deliberate smear campaigns by the media and netizens. So many people have become depressed or committed suicide because of online bullying. Of course, I'm not looking down on my sister-in-law, I'm just using her as an example."
Cheng Sinuo spoke eloquently, prompting Mo Tingye to quietly toss aside the secret marriage agreement he had prepared long ago.
"Sister-in-law, don't be angry. I was just giving you an example. I didn't mean to belittle you. I'm sorry."
Cheng Sinuo took the initiative to apologize to Xu Zhiyi.
"Nono, I know your personality, so naturally I don't believe you're deliberately belittling me. Your analysis makes a lot of sense. Luckily, Mom and Dad and Erchen didn't hide our marriage, otherwise it really would have been like you said. I know how powerful media words and public opinion can be."
Xu Zhiyi smiled slightly, not angry at Cheng Sinuo's words.
“When my dad was scammed and the Xu Group went bankrupt, I experienced online harassment from the media and the elite circles. Fortunately, we came to China at that time. I had friends like Zhizhi who were sincere to me and comforted me, as well as your comfort and encouragement in China. That’s why I didn’t collapse because of the sharp knife of public opinion.”
"So Dad, you and Mom should seriously consider the marriage between Shanshan and her husband!"
Xu Zhiyi also shared what she had experienced.
"Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, thank you both."
Yu Heng expressed his gratitude to Xu Zhiyi and Cheng Sinuo.
Deep down, he didn't want to have a secret marriage with Shanshan.
He truly loved the girl who was pregnant with his child. He longed to announce it to the world, to give her a formal title, to let everyone know that this beautiful girl was his lawfully wedded wife, and to let his little wife receive everyone's heartfelt blessings.
His eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law's words were essentially helping him.
"Honey, let's just forget about it. Let them get married in a happy way, instead of keeping it a secret."
After listening to her son-in-law and two daughters-in-law, Mu Qianqian agreed with their statement.
"Okay! We won't sign the secret marriage agreement, but we still need to sign a formal share transfer agreement and guarantee."
Mo Tingye abruptly changed the subject, producing two more agreements as if by magic.
Yu Heng felt that his father-in-law had come prepared, and everything he did was to secure the greatest benefit and happiness for his precious daughter.
He really is a cunning and shrewd old fox who has been in the business world for many years!
Yu Heng sighed inwardly, but did not show it on his face.
"Okay, I'll sign these two agreements. I know you're doing this for Shanshan's own good, Dad!"
“I understand. Dad, you’re worried that I’m young and impetuous and will treat love and marriage as a game. You’re afraid that I will change my mind and abandon Shanshan in the future, so you’re using this method to protect Shanshan’s future.”
"Actually, Dad, although I am young, I will never treat feelings as a game. Once I've decided on a woman, I will treat her well, love her, pamper her, and make her happy for the rest of my life."
"I understand Dad's concerns. I will sign the agreement carefully. From now on, Mom and Dad, just watch my actions!"
Yu Heng poured out his heart in one breath.
Mu Qianqian looked at Yu Heng and said only one sentence.
"If you stop loving her in the future, don't hurt her; break up gracefully."
"Mom, you have to believe that day will never come."
Yu Heng's face was full of sincerity.
