Seeing how frightened she was, Qin Xuanyi quickly came over and pulled her into his arms to comfort her.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here! I won't marry that woman, and the old man can't force her on me."
I only recognize you as my wife. Even if he's an elder, he can't be so unreasonable!
He spoke lightly, but Qin's father frowned deeply. That old man was not someone to be easily fooled!
Only by sending him away can the plan be successfully implemented. If he stays, his doting on that girl from the countryside will only become an obstacle!
"Alright, Yazhu, you can stay at the Qin family for now. I'll talk to your father later!"
Upon hearing his father's words, Qin Xuanyi quickly led her to the guest room.
"Brother Xuanyi, what should we do? Grandpa doesn't like me and always favors my sister. He definitely won't agree to us being together..."
She cried with tears streaming down her face, looking pitiful. Inheriting the beauty of the second wife, she was also a very pretty and charming young woman, with a delicate oval face, large almond-shaped eyes, and fluttering eyelashes.
She was still innocent and virginal, possessing a captivating charm that was fatally attractive to men.
Qin Xuanyi already liked her, and now he felt even more heartache for her.
"I'm not afraid. I don't like that country girl. She probably won't get a good education living in the countryside. She'll just be like those uncouth, low-class peasants. My wife absolutely cannot be like that!"
He recalled the rural women he had seen on the street, their faces sallow and thin, their behavior rude and vulgar. He shuddered, shook his head, and banished the image from his mind.
Besides, Ya-zhu has been his companion all these years since his mother passed away.
Bai Yazhu, nestled in his arms, listened to his disdainful words, a surge of joy welling up inside her, and a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips where he couldn't see.
The more Xuan Yi disliked that girl, the happier she became. Because of her existence, she spent a long time of her childhood listening to gossip and pointing fingers. How could she not hate her?
"Brother Xuanyi, I believe in you!"
Qin Xuanyi listened and saw the love in her eyes, and his heart softened.
"You are the kindest and most innocent one. Don't be soft-hearted when that woman comes."
Bai Yazhu silently replied in her heart, "I won't be soft-hearted!"
But she still said, "I...she is my sister after all. Although I feel bad, I will endure it for the future of our two families."
Moreover, Dad said he would make it up to her later.
Hmph, once they're all gone, leaving her alone in the provincial capital, with her household registration here, she can't escape.
When the time comes, the Red Guards of the Brotherhood Committee will only take their anger out on her. That annoying little brat won't have an easy time!
You'd better suffer all the torment and die a peaceful death!
Qin Xuanyi rubbed her head and sighed softly, "You're just too soft-hearted. Because of her, how much have you suffered over the years? And you still take her side!"
Because of that country girl, Old Master Bai always treated Bai Yazhu coldly and even harshly, which led to gossip from outsiders and caused Yazhu a lot of grievances!
Bai Yazhu's nose tingled as she recalled those events. "Brother Xuanyi, you understand me best. It's so good to have you..."
Knowing that Old Master Bai had stayed in Shanghai and that the country girl would be returning soon, she needed to increase her leverage for the future...
She would never let go of such an outstanding person as Qin Xuanyi, who is good-looking, comes from a good family, and is capable!
Through her teary eyes, she looked up at Qin Xuanyi.
The two poured out their hearts to each other, and the atmosphere was just right. With a beautiful woman in his arms and the invitation extended by the person he had loved for many years, how could he resist?
As the other person's handsome features drew closer, Bai Yazhu unconsciously closed her eyes.
Her breathing became rapid, and her eyelashes trembled, revealing her unease and anticipation.
But the moment their lips touched, both of them trembled.
Their bodies drew closer and closer as they embraced.
In the heat of their passion, the young couple couldn't resist and tasted the forbidden fruit...
