Seeing the steaming bowls of cornmeal porridge, Sister Zhou couldn’t resist her hunger and sat down to eat. She observed Li Xinting happily enjoying her meal.
Hmm…
It had to be said that the taste was indeed excellent!
As for Yang Qingyue, she sat quietly on the side, observing.
Sister Zhou couldn’t help but cast a few more glances at her from the corner of her eye.Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update
Admittedly…
Even though Yang Qingyue wore simple clothing and didn’t wear any makeup, her delicate features and well-maintained figure made her quite the beauty!
However, when she thought about the fact that Yang Qingyue was going to marry the Wang Ergou mentioned by Li Xinting, she felt a bit uneasy!
Ten minutes passed.
Li Xinting finished her bowl first, and Sister Zhou had eaten most of her portion. It wasn’t that she was wasting it, but…
The bowls were just too large.
Li Xinting burped, then rolled her eyes playfully and said, “I told you to come to my place, but you refused. If you were with me, I wouldn’t have to come back every time to eat this.”
Her tone was very relaxed.
Yang Qingyue smiled faintly and replied, “Not used to it.”
Simple answer, but the meaning behind it was far from simple.
“Alright, alright, you’re good! If you’re not used to it, I won’t force you!”
“But, Little Blue Moon, I have to tell you this time, it’s absolutely impossible for you to marry that beast!”
“I have plenty of money here! If you dare to say otherwise, I’ll tell you that I won’t talk to you in the future!” Li Xinting pulled out all the stops!
However…
Yang Qingyue just smiled faintly and said, “You can’t do it.”
Li Xinting was speechless.
Sister Zhou was speechless too.
It was simple and clear.
“Sister Xinting, I know why Yang Qingyue wants to marry that buttface!”
“It’s because I overheard the stubborn old couple talking to Yang Qingyue. They said if she doesn’t marry Wang Ergou, he will break their legs, seize their land, and drive them out of the village!”
The young boy didn’t pay any attention to Yang Qingyue’s gaze. He just blurted it out in one breath.
After saying this, he turned and ran away without giving Yang Qingyue a chance to reprimand him.
Li Xinting, who heard this news, was stunned, and then she looked at Yang Qingyue with anger.
“Are you a fool? Why would you believe whatever those two stubborn old folks say? Even if they get their legs broken, they deserve it! Why do you care about their lives or deaths?”
“You tell me, since when have they ever truly treated you as their daughter from your childhood to now?”
“Why are you so naive? How much suffering have you endured from childhood until now? Why on earth are there people as foolish as you in this world?” Li Xinting was on the verge of tears, consumed by her frustration.
The question of whether Yang Qingyue’s foster parents spoke the truth hardly seemed to matter at all.
Even if their claims were accurate, it was a new world governed by the rule of law—the antiquated ways of the past had lost their grip.
The notion that one could engage in criminal acts without facing the full weight of justice was preposterous.
What a joke!
Yet despite her seething indignation, Li Xinting found herself disarmed by Yang Qingyue’s tranquil smile.
The soft-spoken revelation came like a soothing balm: “They saved my life.”
Once again, Li Xinting lost her temper.
This simple declaration quelled Li Xinting’s fury.
Yang Qingyue had always maintained that, regardless of how her foster parents had treated her, without their intervention, she would have succumbed to the merciless elements.
Whatever the underlying reason for their rescue, it all boiled down to preserving her life.
In her eyes, her existence was irrevocably intertwined with her foster parents.
As for the enigma of her acceptance of this arranged marriage, it could perhaps be best described as settling an age-old debt.
Li Xinting realized that any further argument with Yang Qingyue would be futile. With an exasperated sigh, she pointed accusingly, “Very well! Yang Qingyue, you’ve bested me. I shall cease my attempts at persuasion. I’m off to find Wang Ergou and I’ll ensure he doesn’t wed you! Will that suffice for you?” With that declaration, Li Xinting turned and made her way to the exit.
Sister Zhou, standing by in silent astonishment, hurried to follow her.
However, at that very moment, a voice, tinged with a mischievous tone, suddenly echoed through the room.
“Well, our dear Sister Ting.”
“If you won’t permit Qingyue to marry me, could it be that you’ve resolved to become my bride instead?”
