After a while, Jian Yue broke the silence.

"Let's just call off this engagement! Since we don't even have the basic trust in each other."

These words exploded like thunder.

Li Hongwen was the first to jump out and speak out against it.

"No! How can this engagement be finalized?"

As he spoke, his hands were still clenched into fists.

So what if Jian Yue is dirty.

No matter what, it’s yours!

Jian Yue sneered, looked at everyone with a firm gaze, straightened her back, and said loudly: "It's a new era now, we value free love, not arranged marriages! We can't be bound by old ideas! There is no emotional foundation between Li Hongwen and I, and we won't be happy if we are forced to be together."

When Wang Chenglan heard this, she stamped her feet anxiously, put her hands on her hips, and shouted, "What do you mean by free love? The engagement has already been made, how can it be changed just like that?"

Jian Yue responded calmly with a relaxed smile on her face, "Mom, the current policy advocates marriage autonomy and cannot be forced. I was doing a good deed last night, but it was spread so badly. You suspected me without even investigating. Can such a marriage last long?"

As he said this, he spread his hands and shrugged.

Father Li pondered for a moment, frowning, "Girl, that being said, but this engagement..."

Jian Yue interrupted him without hesitation, "Uncle, you are also an educated person, you should know that a forced melon is not sweet. Li Hongwen and I are really not suitable."

Jian Weiguo frowned, his face full of anger, and shouted loudly: "Jian Yue, stop messing around!"

Jian Yue looked at her father without flinching, and said solemnly: "Dad, I'm not messing around. I want to decide for my own happiness."

At this time, the elders in the family fell into silence, each with a serious expression.

Li Hongwen still wants to fight for it.

He took a step forward and grabbed Jian Yue's arm, "Jian Yue, I don't agree..."

Jian Yue shook his hand off and shook her head with a look of disgust, "Li Hongwen, this engagement was made because I saved you when I was in junior high school! Since I don't even ask for anything in return, why are you still hesitating?"

Finally, after her eloquent words and persuasion, the elders looked at each other helplessly, sighed, and agreed to cancel the engagement.

A satisfied smile finally appeared on Jian Yue's face, and a big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

Jian Yun was secretly delighted at the side, he finally achieved his goal!

The pride in his eyes could not be hidden, and he glanced at Jian Yue from time to time.

Jian Yue naturally caught a glimpse of the pride of her "good sister".

But it’s still early!

After solving the trouble with the male protagonist, she will naturally deal with the vicious female protagonist.

After all, the original body's life was in the hands of her own sister.

Li Hongwen stood aside with a disappointed look on his face.

He never thought that things would develop to this point, and then he was taken away by his parents in a daze.

It was late at night and everyone was asleep. Jian Yue took great pains to crouch down and quietly slipped into the kitchen.

There is no other way, I have to quickly get something valuable to sell.

You have to take this contraceptive pill early, otherwise if you get pregnant, you're doomed.

After all, thinking about how crazy the two of them were last night still makes people blush.

As for why she came to the kitchen, it was because she seemed to have seen a small jar of salt at home that was a little special in her memory.

Jian Yue quickly changed the bowl and put the salt in it.

Then he rinsed it hastily and ran back to the room like a frightened rabbit.

Returning to the room, she breathed heavily and carefully closed the door, fearing that she would make any noise and be discovered.

Jian Yue sat down on the edge of the bed, covering her chest with her hands, trying to calm her breathing.

It took her a long time to come to her senses and turn on the dim desk lamp.

The faint light from the desk lamp fell on the salt shaker, casting blurry shadows.

She picked up the salt shaker and examined it intently, without blinking.

This salt shaker looks ordinary, with a rough surface and several signs of wear.

Jian Yue looked at it over and over again.

Is it an antique?

If so, then it would be great and could be exchanged for a lot of money.

If not, then all the work will be in vain and the salt will have to be replaced, otherwise it will be terrible if it is discovered.

She stared at the jar, her eyes almost dazzled, and she really couldn't see anything.

I might as well just open the auction house and put all the things in there.

After a while, a reminder appeared on the screen.

【Congratulations, the transaction is successful. 】

Jian Yue couldn't wait to glance at the account balance in the upper left corner.

What? Sold it for 250 bucks?

Her brows were furrowed into a frown, and her eyes were almost filled with tears.

Puzzled, he opened the auction house's records: a replica of a Qing Dynasty teapot was successfully sold for 250 yuan.

Seeing this, his face drooped like an eggplant hit by frost.

"I thought I could become rich overnight!" she muttered, with a look of disappointment and helplessness on her face.

However, the money was enough for her to buy birth control pills.

I ended up spending 48 bucks on an emergency contraceptive pill.

When I was about to close the hypermarket, I caught a glimpse of toothbrushes on sale for only 2 yuan.

I thought of the toothbrush I used this morning that was so broken that it couldn't be any more broken.

Well, just buy it directly.

After purchase, the items appear directly in the storage space.

Jian Yue directly opened the outer packaging and took it out.

As for the garbage, just throw it into the fire tomorrow.

Swallowed the contraceptive pill in one gulp.

When I thought about the fact that I only had two hundred dollars left, I felt so upset.

I flipped through the book over and over again, trying to find out where in my house there were antiques hidden, or where I could find a bargain.

As I turned the pages, my eyelids became heavier...

The next day, Jian Yue was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly awakened by a rapid knock on the door.

"Second sister, second sister, open the door quickly!" Jian Zhen's voice was urgent and loud.

Jian Yue sat up dazedly, rubbed her eyes, yawned and said, "Come on, come on, stop knocking."

When the door was opened, Jian Zhen rushed in, her face full of anxiety.

"Second sister, the Jiang family is here to propose marriage!"

After these words came out, Jian Yue was completely stunned, with a bewildered look on her face, "What Jiang family? Whose relatives are you talking about?"

Seeing that she was still confused, Jian Zhen stamped her feet anxiously and gestured with her hands, "Second sister, it's the Jiang family! The powerful ones! I don't even know their names, but they came to propose to our family and want to marry you!"

Jian Yue frowned, her eyes half-closed, "Zhenzhen, don't be anxious, let me take it easy, what the hell is going on?"

Jian Zhen took Jian Yue's hand and pulled it hard, "Second sister, don't worry about it for now, wash up quickly, dress up a little, and change into nice clothes before going out. Grandma and my parents are waiting in the living room."

She looked helpless and scratched her head, "Oh, okay, okay, I'll go right away."
