"Okay, then you two can talk it out nicely." Even though she knew that neither Yu Qizhe nor her older brother were the type to fight over a disagreement, Yu Jiao was still a little worried that they would have an unpleasant conversation.

But both of them were determined to avoid her, so Yu Jiao had no choice but to inform Yu Fuling and wait in the carriage.

After the green curtain fell, Liu Ziqi retracted his gaze, looked at Yu Qizhe and said, "Mr. Yu seems to have forgotten what I said earlier. I don't stop Yu Jiao from getting close to you, but that doesn't mean I'm indulging you to continue to entangle with her. She cares about the old relationship and treats your sister as a relative, so I naturally won't force her to distance herself from you. But if you still have other thoughts, I advise you to give them up immediately. It's not as easy to stay in the capital as you think!"

Yu Qizhe slowly tightened his hands in his sleeves into fists, his face remained calm and silent, enduring silently. He had nothing now, no ability to fight back, not qualified to propose marriage to the Liu family, what he wanted could only be endured and not expressed, planning secretly.

Liu Ziqi looked at Yu Qizhe, who still had a calm expression, and actually felt a little admiration for him.

He has a rare silence and restraint in his age, and does not have the frivolity and sensitive and proud self-esteem of a teenager. He is a patient person and will achieve great things in time.

But such a person is too thoughtful, and Yu Yujiao is not a good man.

Furthermore, his humble origins have determined how high he can go in the future, and such a person cannot protect Yu Jiao at all.

Those who have climbed from a low position to a high position cannot give up their desire for fame and fortune, and cannot risk everything to protect Yu Jiao.

It is said that an elder brother is like a father. Yu Jiao only has him as her relative in this world. As an elder brother, how can he not consider Yu Jiao wholeheartedly?

"You have studied hard for several years. I know you cannot give up the path of imperial examination and officialdom." Liu Ziqi spoke again, "If you have the idea of ​​marrying Yu Jiao so that you can have a father-in-law who is a minister as your backer, then I can only say that you are extremely foolish! No matter what, I will not let Yu Jiao marry you!"

Yu Qizhe raised a mocking arc at the corner of his lips, his expression was cold, "Mr. Liu is not good at judging people."

Liu Ziqi didn't care about his words and continued, "If you give up your thoughts about Yu Jiao and treat her as a brother, my Liu family can help you after you enter the officialdom. You are a smart person with a shrewd mind. You should know in your heart what choice is the most beneficial to you."

Yu Qizhe smiled faintly, "Mr. Liu must have misunderstood. I am not a smart person."

Liu Ziqi's eyes turned cold, with a faint sense of coercion, "It seems that Master Yu doesn't want to be a smart person. Since you want to suffer for yourself, don't regret it in the future!"

"I think Yu Jiao doesn't like others to control her feelings." Yu Qizhe said coldly, "Since Master Liu has said so much, I will tell Master Liu one thing frankly. I can give in to other things, but there is no way out for Yu Jiao. As long as she has me in her heart and likes me a little bit, I will not let go."

Only Yu Jiao, and only Yu Jiao, is the one he will never let go, give in or abandon. Even if Liu Ziqi does not allow Yu Jiao to marry him, or his status is not worthy of Yu Jiao, he can work hard and make plans to deal with these things.

Liu Ziqi frowned. If he hadn't noticed how deeply Yu Qizhe loved Yu Jiao before, now Liu Ziqi realized that he was clearly obsessed with Yu Jiao.

Liu Ziqi said with a cold face, "You are so stubborn!" and walked towards the Liu family's carriage.

Yu Jiao quietly lifted the car curtain. Although she couldn't hear what the two were talking about, she could tell from her older brother's expression that they were clearly parting on bad terms.
