Chapter 71: Firmly Refuse

Yī thought for a moment and said.She didn't want to stay in the Tiger Clan forever. She still wanted to see the seaside, where the Mermaid Clan mastered the art of salt-making. She wanted to exchange...Zhao Xianrou stood at the top of the second-floor stairs, her voice hoarse but firm, reaching every person in the room.

Zhou Mengyu immediately got up, went upstairs, helped Xiandou down, and sat opposite Yang Jun and Pu Li.

Zhao Xianrou's complexion was very poor, her face was pale, and she had severe dark circles under her eyes. It looked like she hadn't slept well. Her hair was also carelessly tied back, and she wore a pink house dress, which made her skin look even more unhealthy.

Purlì felt a little embarrassed now, after all, she had hinted earlier in front of everyone that it was Liánróu who wanted to use such low-class means to enter the Yang family. Now, before Liánróu could speak, she denied the proposal.

"She's soft-spoken. Your aunt was just flustered earlier, don't mind her! Ziyi is also a victim. He was being controlled by the drug, that's why he did those things."

Purl delicately explained.

"Aunt, things have already happened, and harm has been caused. This isn't something that can be erased with just words. I know Yang Ziyixian is not the culprit, but I also don't want to face him again. Every time I think about that day, I feel like I'm falling into an abyss."

As she spoke, her slender body trembled slightly.

Zhou Mengyu immediately reached out and hugged the slender, thin shoulders, patting gently to comfort. Then, she glanced lightly at Pu Li.

""

"Softly, what do you want us to do so that you will forgive Ziyi"

Yang Jun couldn't help but speak.

"Uncle, I don't blame Zixing. I just want to forget all this as soon as possible."

"But we have an agreement, you and I."

"I'm sorry, delivering on that promise won't be me."

Before this, because of the agreement between our families, I thought Ziyue would be the most suitable partner for me. But first, there was the incident of me being switched at birth, and now this has happened to us. If I still insisted on being with Ziyue after all this, it would make me feel too cheap.

To the unaware, I'm a woman who schemes to keep her engagement. To you, I'm not your first choice for marriage, just someone you need to appease for your son. If that's the case, why should I force myself If I'm going to seek retribution, I'll find the one who orchestrated all this.

After finishing her words, she turned her head to face Zhao Fenglin and said:

"Dad, please send me abroad! I don't want to stay in Shanghai, I don't want to be here anymore."

After saying that, her eyes became red.

"Good child, go rest now! When your body recovers, I'll send you abroad. You can choose where to go."

Zhao Fenglin said calmly.

Zhou Mengyu nodded to Yang Jun and his wife across from her, then supported herself and returned to the room, leaving the three in silence.

Especially Yang Jun and his wife, they previously thought it was a sure thing to persuade Zhao Xianrou. As long as she agreed, they could temporarily set a marriage contract, thus covering up the mistakes their son had made. However, now it seems impossible.

"Mr. Zhao, take a look,"

"If the child is unwilling, I will never force her. When she recovers, I will send Xiaorou abroad for recuperation and psychological treatment. As for the verbal engagement between Zhao Yang's families, let's just end it here!"

The Child of Ripples

Pu Li, unwilling to give up, continued.

Zhao Fenglin's eyes narrowed, and he stared at the other person, saying in a deep voice:

"Ripples wouldn't have the good fortune of becoming a member of the Yang family, after all, she didn't grow up with me. Children raised in average households generally lack proper upbringing. While she would be a wonderful daughter, she wouldn't make for a suitable daughter-in-law."

Moreover, she grew up surrounded by her loving biological parents. Wouldn't you think that they would be unwilling to let Lianyi and Ziyixing be together if their own daughter suffered such harm

This statement directly tells Pu Li that she is delusional.

At this point, there was no need to continue. Yang Jun aptly suggested departing and still said gratefully:

Although Ci'en cannot become a member of the Yang family, I am still grateful that she does not pursue Ziyi's mistakes. We are old acquaintances, and we should still visit each other often in the future.

I've heard rumors that the northern part of the city is going to expand, and land prices are expected to rise. Lao Zhao, if you have some idle funds, you could consider buying a couple of plots of land.

Yang Jun said the most crucial sentence before leaving.

Zhao Fenglin's eyes flashed, he quickly nodded, and politely sent the couple away.

Purlí stormed all the way home, slammed her bag onto the sofa, and sat down with a huff before disdainfully saying:

"What kind of person are you You act like a big shot! I've already given her face by agreeing to her being with Ziyi, and she still dares to refuse She's just so ungrateful!"

"That's enough! Can you stop talking Everything went wrong because of your words. If you hadn't said that, maybe things could have worked out. You said in front of everyone that she used underhanded tactics to get Ziyue engaged to her, and now Cien knows that you don't like her!"

People aren't fools, she may not be Zhao family's biological daughter, but she was raised as a precious pearl by them. To endure your anger shows she has feelings for you, although Ziyix's wrongdoing is understandable, it's still a crime! Furthermore, with Zhao Fenglin's intelligence, rejecting the proposal would benefit the Zhao family more than accepting it!

After Yang Jun's barrage of rebuttals, Pu Li also fell silent. Then she whispered:

"What should we do now Things have happened, Ziyi will definitely be affected, and this will have a bad impact on his future development."

“Of course I know, that's why I gave the Zhao family a generous gift. I hope they will consider this gift and refrain from making this matter public. Even if others find out, as long as the Zhao family involved doesn't admit it, no one will say anything about Ziyix.”

"Isn't this like trying to steal a bell while covering one's ears"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Pu Li said in dissatisfaction.

"Do you have a better way then"

""

The beauty vanished in an instant.

Just as Yang Zixian opened the door and walked out of his room, he saw both his parents there, their faces devoid of smiles. He knew immediately that things hadn't gone well.

"Mom and Dad, you're back!"

"Ziyi, how is your body recovering these two days"

Pu Li nervously stepped forward and asked.

"Mom, don't worry, I'm almost fully recovered!"

After Yang Ziyi sat down, he glanced at his father, rubbed his fingers together before speaking:

"Things not going well Mr. Zhao doesn't agree"

"It is not in agreement with being delicate."

Pu Li answered her son's question before Yang Jun could speak, and told him about their visit.

But she had always been to me

Yang Ziyixiao said with difficulty.

"Child, that is different."

This time Yang Jun shook his head and sighed.

"I understand. If she really wants to pursue legal action, I will take responsibility for my actions."

Yang Ziyi lowered his head and clenched his fists, saying that he couldn't implicate his father because of his own mistakes.

"Silly child, you're our only son. Of course we'll consider you. Besides, the blame for this isn't entirely yours. It wouldn't be fair to have you bear it alone. You're a victim too. If anyone needs to be held accountable, it should be the Wei family!"

Purity immediately birth comforted said. no effort in promoting this selection of beauties.As expected, when the album carefully selected through ripples reached the imperial table, the Emperor was very pleased, thinking his empress was tru...
