63 Miss Ye, We Weren’t Talking To You
They spoke about how Jian Ningxue was crying all the time at home and that the marriage had been arranged by old master Huo. If he didn’t marry Jian Ningxue, old master Huo would probably come and cause trouble for Huo Xiting
The Jian family had used both kindness and threat. If the next step wasn’t to make them divorce, what else could it be?
As expected, Father Jian said seriously, “Ningxue has recognized her mistake. Old master Huo has been pressing her about it as well. Now, Ningxue has promised that she won’t run away from the wedding in a fit of anger. Xiting, you should have had enough fun from this. You and Miss Ye don’t have any emotional foundation.
“How about this, why don’t you and Miss Ye get a divorce soon so that you can marry Ningxue?”
“Miss Ye, don’t worry. The Jian family will pay for all the compensation after the marriage. We won’t let you suffer.”
Complete silence.
Uncle Zhang’s expression turned ugly. How could this man suggest such a thing?
Bang-
At this moment, Huo Xiting put down the teacup in his hand and slowly said, “Uncle Jian.”
The man’s eyes were light, as if he didn’t take Father Jian’s threat to heart.
“Uncle Jian, have you forgotten that I’m the one in charge of the Huo family now?” Huo Xiting chuckled.
So, was it useful to use old master Huo as a threat?
Uncle Zhang couldn’t stand it anymore. “Mr. Jian, what are you talking about?
“The old master has never arranged this marriage for the ninth master. When did miss Jian become the ninth master’s fiancée? Besides, it was Miss Jian who had insisted on marrying the Ninth Master. Old master Jian wanted the Jian family and the Huo family to go through thick and thin together, so he used the ninth master’s mother’s belongings to threaten the ninth master into marrying Miss Jian. Since Miss Jian was the one who ran away this time, the arrangement would have been over.”
Ye Beisheng gave a meaningful reply. “Ohhhhhhh.”
It turned out that Jian Ningxue and Huo Xiting weren’t even a couple, let alone running away from the marriage because of a quarrel.
Father Jian’s expression was extremely ugly.
He pulled a long face and acknowledged Uncle Zhang’s words but didn’t say anything about it.
“Xiting, you’re a smart person. It’s perfectly justifiable for you to marry Ningxue, but if you marry Miss Ye, there’ll only be a pile of trouble. Besides, it wouldn’t be nice to say that you abandoned your fiancée. Ningxue may have been a little mischievous, but you’re a man, Xiting. You should have waited for her and tolerated her tantrums. What’s wrong with that?”
“So, Xiting, you should divorce Miss Ye. Ningxue is more suitable for you.”
Ye Beisheng was speechless.
Then, she laughed out of anger.
Did this family have any idea what they were doing?
Your daughter begged to marry Huo Xiting. However, Huo Xiting had no feelings for her, so you used your friendship with old master Huo to force Huo Xiting to marry your daughter.
In the end, your daughter was the one who ran away from the marriage. A few days later, she realised that Huo Xiting was a good man, so she asked him to divorce his newly-wedded wife and marry his daughter again.
Was he sick in the head?
“Mr. Jian, I have a question to ask you.”
Father Jian still wanted to say something, but Ye Beisheng suddenly spoke with a smile.
She sat on the sofa and looked around. “So, in Mr. Jian’s heart, what do you think of the ninth master? It was old master Huo who has gone through thick and thin with your family, not Huo Xiting. Ninth master doesn’t need to marry a woman he doesn’t love just because of old master Huo’s tolerance for you.
“Besides, Miss Jian ran away from the marriage first, and now she’s forcing the ninth master to divorce me and marry her. In Mr. Jian’s eyes, is the ninth master such a small figure who can be at your beck and call? ”
After he finished speaking, there was an instant silence.
Was the Ninth Master a nobody? Who dared to say that the powerful Ninth Master was nobody?
Not even the Jian family!
Father Jian was just taking advantage of his seniority because he was Huo Xiting’s ‘elder’. Now that a little girl exposed him, he only felt his face burning.
Father Jian suppressed his anger and frowned. “Miss Ye, this is between the Jian family and the Huo family. We were not asking for your opinion.”
