Chapter 320 Strong Tone
With these words, he threw the question back without leaving any trace.
"Mr. Nie, Nie Yao has just been found by the Nie family. She hasn't even enjoyed the blessing of being the eldest grandson and daughter of a wealthy family yet, are you going to ruin your marriage for this so-called marriage agreement?"
Li Jinxing spoke bluntly this time. He looked at Elder Nie gravely and said in a deep voice, "Besides, when the two families made the engagement, the eldest daughter should have been the current second daughter, Nie Jinxi, right?"
Elder Nie fell silent for a moment, and then Father Nie quickly spoke up, "Yes, Dad, what Master Li Jiu said makes sense. When we first made the engagement, A Yao was still living away from home, and we all mistook Jin Xi for her. Now that A Yao has been found, we can't force A Yao to fulfill the engagement. Wouldn't that be too unfair to her?"
As Father Nie finished speaking, Father Yu nodded slightly and echoed in agreement, "That's right. The Ji family didn't specify A-Yao originally. Now that A-Yao and Master Li Jiu are in love, why would they want A-Yao to marry Ji Minghuan?"
With the persuasion of Father Nie and Father Yu, Old Nie's expression relaxed a little, and he said thoughtfully: "What you said is not unreasonable, but I may need to discuss this matter with the Ji family for a while, so that they don't think we are not keeping our promise..."
The second son of the Nie family watched as Father Nie and Father Yu spoke up for Nie Yao. He sneered inwardly and said in a gloomy voice, "The Ji family originally intended to marry the eldest grandson of our Nie family, but now they're going back on their word just because Nie Yao was brought back. If this gets out, what credibility will our Nie family have? Is the friendship between our Nie family and the Ji family going to be ruined forever?"
After Nie Guanglin finished speaking, he smiled at Li Jinxing, who was sitting opposite him, and said, "Master Li Jiu, it's not that we don't give you face, but when it comes to this engagement, we also have to follow the principle of first come first served..."
Li Jinxing glanced at him coldly and said indifferently, "So, the Nie family's affairs can be decided by this second uncle of the Nie family?"
"I..." Nie Guanglin never expected Li Jinxing to answer like this. He was so excited that his face turned red for a moment, but was snorted coldly by Old Nie. He could only lower his head and said no more.
Li Jinxing calmed down the second son of the Nie family and continued to speak to Old Master Nie, "Mr. Nie, I respect you as my elder, which is why I'm willing to come back with Nie Yao to discuss this matter! The engagement between the Nie and Ji families doesn't necessarily require Nie Yao to fulfill. You know my temper, and I will never give my woman away to anyone else!"
Although his tone was flat, his attitude was firm and his meaning was very clear. He and Nie Yao came to the Nie family to inform them of the fact of their relationship, not to seek their opinions!
When Mr. Nie heard Li Jinxing's tough words, he frowned slightly and felt troubled.
He couldn't lose his credibility in this marriage, but he couldn't offend the great Buddha, Master Li Jiu, just for the sake of a marriage!
"Mr. Li, I understand your intentions. I also hope to see Nie Yao be with someone who loves and protects her. However, I'm afraid it's difficult for the Ji family to give an explanation..."
Before Elder Nie could finish his words, his father immediately said with a smile, "Dad, there's no need to worry about this. Nie Yao isn't the only girl in our Nie family!"
"That's right, Grandpa Nie. Ji Minghuan and Nie Jinxi are childhood sweethearts. Nie Yao already has Master Li Jiu, so why don't you let Nie Jinxi be the marriage partner?"
