"Jiang Yao, do you remember that the Zhou family wanted to force Zhang Lanxiang onto Weiqi?" Chen Xuyao spoke quickly. "Mrs. Zhou, Mr. and Mrs. Du went over to the Li family this morning. They wanted to push forward Zhou Changkang and Li Tianxin's engagement to tomorrow night."
"Do you think it's due to Weiqi's plan to cut ties with the Zhou family?" That was the only reason Jiang Yao could come up with. "They wanted the Divine Doctor to mend Du Chen's leg. Plus, they realized yesterday that Weiqi was treated very well by the lot of you, unlike their previous assumptions, and recognized his importance in the role he can play to further the Zhou family's cause. They're not willing to let him go."
Jiang Yao chuckled. "In my humble opinion, Zhou Changkang wanted to get engaged to Li Tianxin hastily not only because the Zhou family wanted to confirm their ties with the Li family as soon as possible, they also wanted to create an opportunity to scheme against Weiqi."
"Brilliant! You've got it all right!" Chen Xuyao exclaimed. "This is what they wanted to do: look for a hooker, have her accompany Weiqi for the entire duration of Zhou Changkang's engagement night, she will then drug Weiqi and have her way with him before switching her place with Zhang Lanxiang after everything is done."
"Then, everyone from the Zhous to the Dus to the Zhangs would burst in and catch Weiqi red-handed. They will then force the marriage, with Zhang Lanxiang marrying Weiqi. Let's not forget she's now pregnant with Zhou Changkang's son. Even with Weiqi cutting ties with the Zhou family, they still have Zhang Lanxiang to monitor everything that Weiqi does. I'm telling you; this is an awful idea!" Jiang Yao could not believe how low people could stoop to achieve their goals.
"That's it." Chen Xuyao almost laughed his jaws off. "The Zhou family is foolish. If Weiqi wanted to cut ties with the Zhou family, what can Zhang Lanxiang do? Does she actually have the ability to keep tabs on Weiqi?"
Once out of the Zhou family's grasp, Zhou Weiqi could divorce Zhang Lanxiang at any moment he saw fit.
