Xiao Jinhan leaned back as well, looking ready to fight him to the bitter end.
His cold gaze was sharp as he looked into his eyes, and he said with a smirk, "When it comes to feelings, there's no such thing as first come, first served. If there is, then I'm not the one who came later."
"Doesn't count?"
Xiao Jinhan raised an eyebrow and explained to him, "Lin Feng and Shi Liu were just a marriage contract from their fathers. They had no emotional foundation and had never met. But Shi Liu and I were arranged by fate. So, Godfather, Lin Feng was the one who came later."
Huo Ting: "???"
It's not just about undermining someone's career, it's about making it sound like this.
How could he not have known that the usually introverted and taciturn fourth brother was actually quite sharp-tongued?
"Secondly, we both know one thing: my mother would never force a daughter who has lacked maternal love for twenty years to marry someone she doesn't like. The idea of forcing her is untenable. Not only would I stop her, but my mother would be the first to stand up for her."
Huo Tingfeng had no doubts about what he said.
He's right.
Sure enough, the children are all grown up now, and you can't fool them anymore.
Finally, he softened a little and made a summary: "It seems that you really like and care about that girl."
"She's my fiancée, how could I not like her?"
He emphasized the position of his fiancée again.
Huo Ting didn't want to continue playing the bad cop. He picked up his coffee, took a sip, and then slowly said, "I originally thought that the bond between you two wasn't so unbreakable. Perhaps you would back down for the sake of being brothers with Lin Feng."
Xiao Jinhan did not back down at all, his eyes narrowed slightly, filled with a serious expression.
"When she made her official announcement at sixteen, she said that she wanted to have a relationship that would never end. In my understanding, that means she is willing to marry me and never separate from me. I have no reason to let down a woman who trusts me and has the courage to entrust her future to me."
We must not fail to live up to the direction of our hearts.
Therefore, even if Huo Linfeng is his brother, it won't work.
This is not just a matter of personal preference and principles, but also a matter of taking responsibility for her life.
He also saw her Weibo post and finally sighed: "Fine, I won't interfere in your affairs anymore. No matter how you fight, don't forget the friendship between the Fu and Huo families."
"Of course not."
Huo Ting spoke his mind, a hint of worry in his eyes: "I'm just worried about Lin Feng. He...sigh, he's waited too long..."
“In this world, there is no absolute deep affection, nor is there absolute promiscuity. Didn’t my godfather say he couldn’t live without my mother back then? Now, he and his wife are a harmonious couple, and their son is the same age as me.”
Huo Ting: "..."
He was speechless, and muttered a curse under his breath: "You little brat!"
Xiao Jinhan smiled faintly: "Just stating the facts."
Hopefully, Lin Feng can understand this.
"It's a matter of time."
Huo Ting wholeheartedly agreed with those four words. Back then, Qiao Yanzhi was like air to him. After they truly separated, he felt short of breath and in pain every day and night. The world was black and white, without any light.
As a result, he became resistant to all women for the next five years.
The pain of that loss gradually subsided over time, and in the end, when I thought about it again, even the resentment was gone.
Or perhaps, his wife appeared at that time, prompting him to resolutely say goodbye to the past.
Looking back now, those youthful days faded by time—we loved, we were deeply affectionate, we suffered—but it can't last forever.
You will always find your own ray of sunshine.
