Hearing Pei Xingyan's words, Pei's father and mother's eyes lit up. That was what they thought, but they didn't expect that Yanyan had the same idea as them.
Pei Xingyue was surprised for a moment, then looked at Pei Xingyan with bright eyes.
What her sister said may have been a little harsh, but it really touched her heart.
From the beginning to the end, she didn't like this engagement, but it was decided because of her parents.
She thought her parents would not harm her, and she was really indifferent to love between men and women, so she did not refuse.
So, can you just say no?
No one from the Pei family said anything, but everyone was thinking the same thing.
On the other hand, at the Shen family, Shen's father and mother had ashen expressions, as if they were angered by Pei Xingyan's blunt words.
Shen Junhao, on the other hand, had an incredible expression on his face.
He didn't expect that he would be disliked so thoroughly.
He could see that this real daughter seemed to dislike him, but he didn't expect her to be so rude.
You're almost saying I dislike you, I don't like you, I don't think you're worthy of my sister, and I'm showing my dislike for you openly.
As the heir of the Shen family, he has been coaxed and praised wherever he goes since he was a child.
He was also confident that he had a good-looking face, but he never expected to be so thoroughly disliked in the Pei family.
After a moment of surprise, his eyes darkened.
Thinking of his parents' words, he frowned and spoke with all his might.
"Ms. Pei, this is just our first meeting, and you're already speaking sarcastically, devaluing Shen as worthless. Isn't that too uncultured?"
He thought that his rebuttal would embarrass Pei Xingyan.
Unexpectedly, Pei Xingyan just agreed with a completely nonchalant look.
“Ah, yes, yes, I’m uneducated.
I didn't take any etiquette classes, I grew up outside.
I have been spoiled by my adoptive parents since I was a child.
After they passed away, I was left alone to struggle in society, with no one to rely on.
I haven't learned what you call manners, and no one has taught me.
All I learned was to speak the truth.
I'm not targeting you, I'm just telling the truth.
Why, these days, people are not allowed to tell the truth?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Junhao frowned deeply.
It was simply that Pei Xingyan's words were hard for him to accept as he had always been praised by others.
If it weren't for the presence of his elders, he would have exploded in anger.
But thinking of his parents' instructions when he came, he had to endure it.
If he wants to get the Shen family's shares, he must marry into the family to consolidate his position.
It is true that he is the heir, but he is more than one child in the Shen family.
His good father had countless illegitimate children, and his mother also had more than one child.
Not to mention the distant ones, just his younger brother who was born to the same father and mother was enough to make him feel threatened.
He needed a marriage to increase his bargaining chips, and the Pei family was his best choice.
There are no sons in the family, only two daughters, one of whom is not his biological daughter.
In this kind of family, once you get married, you will be at his mercy.
He had thought it all out. He would first form an alliance through marriage and then use the power of the Pei family to obtain shares in the Shen family.
Once he has completely established his foothold in the Shen family and takes control of the Shen Group, the Pei family can withdraw.
By then, this so-called wife will be nothing more than a decoration kept at home.
The Pei family is in his pocket, and it is the reserve food he uses to fill the risks of the Shen family.
When it is needed one day, the Pei family will be finished.
In a society ruled by law, killing is against the law.
But as long as there is money, there are plenty of people who can make that untainted knife, just a few lives.
Thinking of this, his eyes became even deeper.
Pei Xingyan didn't get an answer, but didn't get annoyed. She looked at Shen Junhao's eyes, which were getting darker, and sneered in her heart.
The damn scumbag is plotting again.
Bah! Do you still think I was a great enemy in my previous life?
In this life, I will send you to hell.
Seeing that no one spoke, Pei's father quickly spoke to break the silence.
"Old Shen, look, it's not that our Pei family has a problem with you.
The truth is, we can't go ahead with this engagement.
Yanyan has been away from home for many years, and we owe her too much.
To make up for it, we don't want to interfere too much in her future life. As long as she is happy, that's all that matters.
As for Yueyue, although we have raised her for a long time, she is not our biological daughter after all.
She is an adult now and has her own considerations and plans. How can we interfere?
You have also watched Yueyue grow up and know that her hobby has always been performing.
Before, because she was our only child, we had to give up our dreams.
Now that we have Yanyan, we don’t plan to interfere with her choice.
If she wants to pursue her dream, she will definitely enter the entertainment industry.
She is still young and having a fiancé would hinder her acting career.
Taking all factors into consideration, it's better to cancel this engagement."
Upon hearing this, before Shen's father and mother could speak, Shen Junhao on the side became anxious first.
Without the engagement, how could he get the shares to take charge of Shen Group?
He stood up immediately, his tone urgent.
"Uncle Pei, this engagement cannot be cancelled.
I know that Miss Pei just returned home and cannot accept that I am engaged to someone else.
But changing the marriage partner was my parents' decision, and I personally had no such idea.
Yueyue likes acting and wants to enter the entertainment industry in the future, but that won’t prevent us from getting married.
We can have a secret marriage, and Yueyue is going to be an actress, not an idol, so dating and getting married will not affect her.
I……"
Before he could finish his words, Pei Xingyan stood up from the sofa and slapped him in the face.
