Bai Yajing tapped on the table.
"If a great man knew that you were distorting him like this, he would be both angry and amused."
It's not that we can't oppose arranged marriages, but you should at least have some shame! You can't have it all. Since you've changed your mind and betrayed your fiancée, you should honestly admit your mistake and call off the engagement.
Instead of distorting the facts with sophistry, the premise of pursuing free marriage is that you first arrange things for the people you've already been with, and then pursue other people with a pure heart and mind.
The marriage certificate was written in the presence of both families' elders and the matchmaker, and was announced to heaven and earth. How can you treat it so lightly?
"Alright, we have different bottom lines, I'm too lazy to argue with you, let's just break off the engagement."
As for the Qin family daring to conspire with that mother and daughter to scheme against her, she'll settle the score slowly after the engagement is dissolved! It'll save her from dragging things out.
After she finished speaking, Old Master Bai looked at her approvingly and said, "Good! Well said! As expected of my family... relative, you are so knowledgeable and polite! Hahahaha."
Bai Lao Si looked at her with admiration; this was the true eldest daughter of the Bai family! Unlike that girl who peed all the time, acting like everyone owed her money!
As the old man spoke, he took out the marriage certificate he had prepared long ago and the token that Bai Yajing had just handed to him from his pocket, and handed them to Chairman Qin.
The father and son were rendered speechless by Bai Yajing's retort. Seeing the marriage certificate and the golden phoenix hairpin, they felt no joy at having successfully escaped the marriage contract they had disliked for more than ten years.
Instead, they were somewhat annoyed that the other party was so tactless! They were being put in such an awkward position!
However, the next plan is the most important, so they endured it!
President Qin took the marriage certificate, checked it, confirmed it was correct, and then set it on fire.
As for the hairpin, it was casually tossed on the table and ignored.
Qin Xuanyi also took out the marriage certificate and a jade pendant shaped like two fish and pushed them in front of Old Master Bai.
Grandpa Bai opened it as well, then burned it, and put the jade pendant with the double fish design away. This was a keepsake from Nannan's mother, and he would have to return it to her later.
With the business concluded, the Qin family still needed to keep Old Master Bai to discuss Bai Yazhu's marriage.
As if to vent his anger and deliberately provoke Bai Yajing, Chairman Qin invited Bai Lao Er and his wife, along with Bai Yazhu, out.
Old Master Bai snorted coldly, "What? You can see the light now? Why don't you just turn into a rat instead of hiding in the shadows and eavesdropping!"
He was utterly disappointed in this son! Otherwise, he would have sent his daughter and her whole family away, while he and his family stayed behind in the rear.
Actually, he didn't want to bring Bai Zhijun along; he was just a troublemaker who couldn't think straight! But in order to appease his second brother, he had no choice but to reluctantly take him.
Bai Lao Er felt guilty for a moment, but quickly calmed himself down.
"Dad, look at what you're saying. If I'm a mouse, then you're a mouse too. Well, it's like this, we don't have much time, so it's better to settle some things sooner rather than later, just in case something unexpected happens!"
Bai Yazhu had been listening to the whole thing from next door, and Bai Yajing's sarcastic remarks had already made her furious.
She looked up at her with her red, swollen eyes and said, "This must be my older sister. I know you hate me for taking Xuan Yi away from you."
But matters of the heart cannot be forced. If Xuan Yi doesn't love you, forcing yourselves to be together will only cause you both a lifetime of pain.
"We're doing this for your own good, why don't you understand?"
Bai Yajing was so angry she almost laughed when she heard this.
"Huh? You really are shameless, with one side thick-skinned and the other shameless."
Tsk tsk tsk, who can do that as well as you! Turning black into white, clearly one is a scumbag and the other is a scoundrel, yet you're dragging in genuine feelings, aren't you afraid of making people laugh their heads off!
Also, my mom only gave birth to me, who's your sister? Don't claim relatives randomly!
Bai Yazhu's tears fell in large drops as she stammered, "Sister, no, Miss, I was wrong, it's all my fault, please don't blame Brother Xuanyi."
This caused everyone present, except for Old Master Bai, Fourth Brother Bai, and Bai Yajing, to feel extremely distressed.
Qin Xuanyi made no attempt to hide his feelings and pulled the person into his arms to comfort him.
