Dongfang Yifei jogged over to Nangong Ziyan with a smile, disregarding Beiming Haotian's cold and wicked aura. He glared at Beiming Haotian fiercely, but when he looked at Nangong Ziyan, his face was full of smiles again.
“Yan’er, stop being stubborn and come back with us! We’ll get married when we get back. Uncle Nangong has already agreed to our wedding…”
"Shut up, who wants to marry you?" Nangong Ziyan quickly interrupted Dongfang Yifei.
Upon hearing this, Bei Ming Haotian felt an unbearable pain in his heart. He was also present when Dongfang Yifei's mother mentioned this matter years ago. Bei Ming Haotian's face behind the mask was terribly gloomy, and his hands were clenched tightly, as if he would not be satisfied until they were completely clamped down.
"Sigh! Yan'er, we've been betrothed since childhood. If you don't marry me, who do you want to marry?" Dongfang Yifei smiled broadly, seemingly not caring about Nangong Ziyan's words at all, but in his heart he thought: Nangong Ziyan, you have to marry me whether you want to or not. Just because of what Venerable Yunxiao said back then, I, Dongfang Yifei, must marry you.
"I'd rather marry a stray cat or dog than marry you, Dongfang Yifei." How could Nangong Ziyan not see through Dongfang Yifei's little tricks?
A flash of anger quickly crossed Dongfang Yifei's eyes, implying that he, Dongfang Yifei, was not even as good as a stray cat or dog.
Upon hearing this, Bei Ming Haotian felt an urge to laugh. Marrying a cat or dog—only she could come up with such a thing.
"Yan'er, don't be willful. Your mother and Yifei's mother agreed on this marriage back then. Now that she's of marriageable age, she should abide by the agreement. How could you run away?" Nangong Ruichen said sternly, glancing at Beiming Haotian. They had never met face to face before, so it was best to pretend they didn't know each other!
"Big brother! Don't be so harsh. You've frightened Yan'er," Nangong Jingqi said with a smile.
"Yan'er, quickly tell your older brother that you will come back with us." Nangong Jingqi kept winking at Nangong Ziyan, but Nangong Ziyan pretended not to see it. If she could go back, would she need to run away?
"Second Brother, Yan'er isn't going back." Nangong Ziyan pouted. If she really wanted to marry Dongfang Yifei, would she need to run away?
"Yan'er, how long are you going to keep this up? I've neglected so much to look for you. Come back with me now and we'll get married to Yifei on a chosen date," Nangong Ruichen roared sternly.
Baili Yuechan was no longer hungry. With a look of anticipation, she kept guessing about their identities. It turned out that these people all had extraordinary backgrounds.
"Brother, Yan'er will not marry. If you continue to force Yan'er, Yan'er will run away even further."
Nangong Ziyan was actually quite afraid of Nangong Ruichen when he became stern. She grabbed Beiming Haotian's arm with some fear. This habitual action of grabbing Beiming Haotian as her first reaction when encountering danger was something she herself did not even realize.
However, Bei Ming Haotian had already noticed this habit of hers, but he liked the feeling of her relying on and trusting him.
He asked in a cold voice, "Yan'er doesn't want to get married, why are you forcing her?" Bei Ming Haotian couldn't help but ask.
