Both of them were taken back by what happened.
Yi Shiqiong’s eyes flickered. Then, she ran into the man and woman’s arms, “Dad, mom!”
As she supposedly continuously cried, she whispered something by their ears.
Zhong Mingjuan stopped caring about Fu Xiuyu and ran up as well.
“In-laws, I’m so sorry that you are witnessing this. Let’s go out and talk. Yes, let’s do that.”
The middle-aged man received Yi Shiqiong’s instructions. His face first darkened before he said unhappily, “So your son doesn’t want to marry my daughter anymore?”
“He does! How could he not!” Zhong MIngjuan grinned apologetically, “Xiuyu is still young and doesn’t know better. But we adults are clear-headed! The parents should make the calls regarding our children’s marriages! I will ask him to apologize to Yi Shiqiong later!”
The man hissed, “He better! There are lines of men in country Y who want to marry my daughter! If it weren’t for the fact that my daughter doesn’t want to consider anyone but your son, there is no way I would agree to their marriage!
“Of course, of course.” Zhong Mingjuan said, “Don’t worry, in-laws. I’m in charge here! I promise you that I can grant you a satisfactory answer!”
Everyone around began to gossip and guess who that man was. How could he talk like that to the Fu family? The Fu family was one of the most prominent families in the city.
One of Zhong Mingjuan’s friends eyed that middle-aged couple and asked, “Mingjuan, those are your son’s in-laws? Why not introduce us?”
Zhong Mingjuan straightened her back, “This is the CEO of GR Corporation from country Y, Yi Feili. This is the psychology professor from the University of England, Ms. Rareo.”
Her words caused a wave of discussion. Most people nodded and agreed those two families were good for each other.
Zhong Mingjuan listened to what everyone said and felt a little better about what had just happened. The smile on her face was now genuine and relaxed.
Mu Jinghang was about to say something to Jun Yexuan but Jun Yexuan had gone to Qiao Qing. So instead, Mu Jinghang whispered to Qi Yusen, “Yi Feili may be low key like the boss of Jing Li Xuan, but we’ve found out some things about him. There’s no way he’s that old, right?”
Qi Yusen didn’t respond.
The middle-aged woman looked over to Fu Xiuyu and said to Zhong Mingjuan, “He’s holding onto another girl right now! What does that make my daughter?! You say you have the say in this marriage, yet he’s disrespecting my daughter. Even if this marriage happens, will my daughter be happy with him?!”
The middle-aged man agreed, “Exactly! Now that I’m seeing what is happening, I wouldn’t even agree to this marriage anymore! It’s all because of my daughter’s wishes that I’m not walking out with her right now.”
“I don’t care what is going on between your son and that girl. But since you agreed to marry into my family, then your son will need to take a stance and end it with that girl!”
“If you can’t even do that, then no matter what my daughter says, as a father, I wouldn’t allow her to be with your son! I am going to take her to country Y right now!”
Zhong Mingjuan became flustered right away, “Mr. Yi, Ma’am, please don’t be mad. I’m going to tell those girls off right away! She seduced my son and my son only touched her because of a moment of weakness. Please wait a second.”
Then, she looked over to the couple who refused to part and ordered in a heavy voice, “Butler, find someone and beat that b!tch until she leaves my house!”
Just then, a provoking voice arose from outside the crowd, “What a scene y’all are making!”
