“Mom, I don’t think that’s a good idea. Besides, Li Qingcang is very defensive and has more self-control than these other men have. Basically, we don’t stand much of a chance.”

Ying Yimei could see that Li Qingcang was deliberately avoiding her during this time. Under the circumstances, it would have been impossible for her to be impregnated by him.

She didn’t know that with Qie Wang’s lesson from the past, Li Qingcang was no fool. How would he not notice this kind of behavior?

Ying Yimei’s mother leaned close to Ying Yimei’s ear and whispered, “My dear, are you out of your mind? Li Qingcang might be very wary of you, but certainly not of old lady Li. You just have to persuade old lady Li to do this. Once you do, your wish to marry Li Qingcang will come true. Then I will become Li Xing’s real in-laws. At the very least, if it does not work no matter what you do, you just cry harder. Can they blame you? It’s not like you drugged him or anything, right?”

Ying Yimei’s mother’s idea matched with her own.

It seemed that this mother and daughter duo had the same nature.

“Then, what should I do now?”

“The squeaky wheel gets the grease, don’t you understand? You have to cry now. The louder you cry, the more hurt you will seem. Won’t old lady Li pity you for it?”

Ying Yimei nodded. She understood.

Just as Ying Yimei was about to go to Li’s house, Grandma Li called Ying Yimei first.

After saying a few words on the phone, Ying Yimei said to her mother, “Mom, old lady Li is looking for me. I have to go.”

“Yimei, seize the opportunity, do you understand?”

Ying Yimei nodded vigorously.

She understood.

She would definitely seize the opportunity.

…

…

Meanwhile, at Li’s house…

Wu Tong, Li Xing, Aunt Li, and Grandma Li looked at the marriage certificate in front of them, and they didn’t get back to their senses for a long time.

Li Xing also didn’t expect that his son to be bold enough to get their marriage certificates behind his back.

“Do Xie Xuning and his wife know this?”

Li Qingcang sat upright in a military posture with his hands on his knees. His face was serious, and his eyes were looking straight ahead.

He replied solemnly, “I took Tianxin to tell Mom and Dad yesterday after we got the marriage certificate.”

Li Xing was going to ask when he told him that.

Then he thought about it for a while before realizing that he didn’t tell him and Wu Tong, his parents.

Instead, he told Xie Xuning and Ye Linlang, Ye Tianxin’s parents.

“Li Qingcang, you got a lot of nerve. Marriage is an important matter. You should have told us in advance, but you have acted first and reported to us afterward. Do you know how fastidious this is? Do you have any idea how rude your little stunt is? It’s disrespectful.”

Li Xing could not explain how he was feeling. All kinds of emotions, such as relief, excitement, sourness, surprise, and happiness, were interwoven.

His son had more gumption than him and always chose quickly in situations like this.

Li Qingcang still said blankly, “We have gotten the marriage certificate. Our marriage is under the protection of the law. Moreover, I am a senior general in active service of the Empire. It is a military marriage and cannot be broken.”

“No, Qingcang. Ye Tianxin hasn’t turned twenty years old yet, right? Is your marriage certificate even valid?”
