Quan Zexi’s voice made Jun Yexuan tighten his fists.
He opened his mouth but no sound came out.
Just then, Qiao Qing’s crisp voice arose inside the room, “20 at the latest.”
“What?”
“What?”
Everyone in the room turned to stare at Qiao Qing. Jun Yexuan included.
Qiao Qing held tightly onto Jun Yexuan’s hand and intertwined her fingers with his. Her voice was loud and clear, “I said, 20 at the latest. I’m going to marry him then.”
“What did you say?”
“No!”
“Not allowed!”
“Sister, you must be crazy!”
“I’m not going to agree to that!”
Everyone in the living room once again exploded.
Jun Yexuan’s empty heart felt like it’s been injected with a warm stream of love. He tightened his grip around her hands.
It didn’t matter to him whether or not the others objected. He was happy as long as her intentions agreed to his.
Against everyone’s angry objections, Qiao Qing was unusually calm. Her gaze was also unusually determined.
She spoke in a way that made it clear she didn’t ask for an opinion. She was simply making a statement.
“T said, I’m going to marry him when I turn 20. Nobody can make any decisions on my behalf. The only reason I’m waiting a year is that I need some time to prepare for the wedding.”
She looked over to Quan Zexi, “Dad, if you interfere with our marriage, I promise you that within two months, you’ll receive the news that you’re going to be a grandpa.”
Quan Zexi,
Jun Yexuan, “…”
Everyone else, “…”
It took everyone a second to fully absorb the meaning of Qiao Qing’s words.
Jun Yexuan was in disbelief as emotions swirled around his stomach.
‘Mu Jinghang silently cursed and exclaimed over the hardiness of his sister-in-law.
You stop us from getting married? Then we’ll present you with a kid!
If his wife felt a third of how Qiao Qing felt about his third-brother, he wouldn’t be here right now.
Other than Jun Yexuan and Qi Yusen, everyone else crumbled.
Her father Quan Zexi, felt thunderstruck. He stared at her with his eyes wide, “Do you even know what you’re talking about?!”
“Tm not just a kid who is throwing a tantrum because she isn’t getting what she wants. It’s very clear to me what I want. It’s always been clear to me.” Qiao Qing stared back at Quan Zexi and continued to speak without backing down, “At first, I hated him more than anyone else. He managed to surpass all
the obstacles and entered my heart step by step. He made me love him and I am sure that it’s him for me.”
“Tm not a puppet without a soul or a heart. I cannot fulfill everything you ask of me. I cannot just randomly marry the man you pick for me.”
“Don’t pick other people to compare him against. To me, nobody is more important to me than him.”
“You say, Feng Heng and the others are willing to wait for me until I’m 34. That’s because there’s no way I’d be with them, You can’t compare how much someone loves you.”
“He’s different from them. He’s the man I love. For you to insult him all the time and tell him he has no right to love me, that is not something I can accept.”
By now, everyone was in shock.
Quan Zexi stuttered, “But…”
Qiao Qing interrupted him, “Let me finish.”
Quan Zexi shut up.
Qiao Qing continued, “There was one thing he got right. Don’t say I only say so because he seduced me. I’m fully capable of interpreting what’s best for me.”
“That one thing he got right, is… are you really doing all of this for my benefit? Do you really think I’m willing to wait seven to eight years before marrying him? My answer to that is ‘no’..
