Chapter 1197 I'm not targeting her
"That's because you don't understand my parents enough. Do you think they really care about my feelings? In fact, in their eyes, only Tingting is the most important. As long as Tingting likes someone, no matter who it is, they will agree to them being together, unlike me, where even repeated compromises are of no use."
Although Xia Youxin would occasionally return to the Qi family during the years she was married to him, she didn't really know much about Qi's parents.
They never really spoke a few words to her.
Mr. Qi's attitude towards her was always cold and indifferent, and they basically never invited her to eat at their home. So she would only come home to visit and buy some things. Mr. Qi was not home most of the time.
Every time, Qi's mother treated her with harsh words and never said a kind word.
In Xia Youxin's eyes, she felt that real parents should cherish their son, which is why they cared so much about this marriage.
"How could that be? You're your parents' only son. In a wealthy family like yours, shouldn't sons be more important than daughters? After all, sons are the heirs, okay?"
Many families strive to have a son, resulting in countless daughters. The son is the most precious child; he gets everything he wants.
Qi Xuan smiled bitterly, "What you're talking about isn't just other people's families, not ours. Most of the families around me are like that too. Ayan's family and the family that proposed marriage, Junhuai's family both have two children, a boy and a girl, but they are the apple of their parents' eyes."
Just look at Ayan and Wan'er's marriage to know that Wan'er would have a hard time marrying in high society, given her insufficient education and less-than-stellar reputation. Perhaps no parents would accept such a daughter-in-law.
Qi Xuan then remembered. Xia Youxin and Tang Wan'er were best friends, practically inseparable.
Speaking of Tang Wan'er like that in front of Xia Youxin must have made him uncomfortable.
He was simply stating the facts and had no prejudice against Tang Wan'er, so he quickly explained.
"I don't have any romantic feelings for Wan'er. After getting to know her, I know she's a very good girl. Otherwise, given Ayan's personality, he would never have liked her, especially since she's your most..."
"Good friend, I certainly wouldn't have any problem with her. It's just that people who don't know her well probably don't think that way. I'm just stating the facts, so don't take it too seriously."
Xia Youxin really didn't like others looking at Tang Wan'er with prejudiced eyes. After all, they hadn't experienced the pain Tang Wan'er had gone through, so they naturally couldn't understand why she had become so rebellious.
However, she knows all about her upbringing, so she can understand why she became like a hedgehog. To put it bluntly, it's simply to protect herself.
She also believed that Qi Xuan didn't have that prejudiced view of Tang Wan'er, and that he was really just judging things objectively. So this time, she chose to ignore the unpleasant feelings in her heart.
"I know you're not really targeting Wan'er, there's no need to be so nervous."
Seeing that Xia Youxin wasn't angry, Qi Xuan mustered up his courage and continued, "So Ayan's parents are really good. They care more about their child's feelings. To be honest, for a family like ours, whether or not we have a marriage alliance doesn't really matter. Our status in the country is basically unshakeable, and there aren't many families that are truly good enough for us."
