Zhu Congjian didn't take her words seriously. In his mind, it was just a little girl's boastful talk, not to be taken seriously.
But he was still very happy that his daughter had this intention.
However, when it came to the Qiu family, Zhu Congjian sighed: "Your maternal grandparents' family is not easy to deal with. If you go there, you will inevitably suffer some grievances. It would be better if I asked someone to go to Heling these next few days to make arrangements for you and buy a house. That way, you won't have to live in the Qiu family and suffer in silence, being controlled by others everywhere."
He didn't intend to stop his daughter. After all, his wife came from the Qiu family, and the two families were still closely connected. It was obviously unrealistic to make his daughter sever ties with the Qiu family.

Zhu Jiayu shook her head: "Father is just being overly concerned. Do I look like someone who would be mistreated? It's not certain who will be mistreated when I go to the Qiu family."
She had experienced firsthand the true colors of Qiu's older siblings. None of them were particularly clever; they couldn't outsmart her.
Zhu Congjian sighed heavily, recalling what he had heard later about his daughter cracking open someone's skull at Xingyunfang: "That's true. If things really escalate, it's unlikely that his daughter will be the one who suffers."
Thinking about it that way, he felt much more at ease.

The guard quickly flattered him: "Young master, your family is of noble birth and your status is outstanding."
"Is your young master not good-looking?"
Another guard quickly added, "Young master, you have a face like jade and a refined and elegant demeanor."
"Then why did she reject me?"
For the first time in his more than ten years of life, Wei Xiaolangjun felt confused about matters between men and women.
