Secondly, she had already agreed to Chen Junyu's promise, and Chen Junyu had indeed risked his life to act as bait. How could she possibly go back on her word?

That doesn't make sense.

"Don't you want to marry Chen Junyu?" Qiao Yu noticed his daughter's thoughts and advised, "Junyu is a good kid. He's strong and simple-minded. You won't suffer if you marry him."

"Dad, I know what you're saying, but I'm still a little unwilling!" Qiao Ruoxi said dejectedly.

"I've already agreed, there's no going back." Qiao Yu sighed. "Back then, I didn't promise Junyu any conditions to use as bait, but Zhang Lin insisted on sending you. I had no choice."

"Ah, it's all because of him?" Qiao Ruoxi was shocked, then her face turned red with anger. "How could he threaten you with me? That's not something a real man would do!"

Qiao Yu smiled wryly, "I don't know if he's a man or not, but I'm definitely no match for him. I can only obey him, and... from now on we'll all be working for him. You can be dissatisfied with him, but don't show it, understand?"

"Okay." Qiao Ruoxi was even more annoyed.

She had a good impression of Zhang Lin before. After all, compared to Chen Junyu, who was weak-willed and could only meekly obey his father, Zhang Lin, who was the same age, was able to gain the upper hand in front of her father and even put him in a difficult position.

Qiao Ruoxi admires the strong. In the past, her father was the strong one in her heart, but now, Zhang Lin's performance clearly shows that he is even stronger than her father.

She used to admire Zhang Lin a bit.

Now……

After learning about Zhang Lin's methods of threatening her father, Qiao Ruoxi's admiration for him vanished.

"Hmph, he's not a real man!"
