The atmosphere at the dinner table instantly plummeted to freezing point, and Wu Youyou's expression was equally chilling.
She threw her chopsticks on the table, looked up at Wu Zhenyuan, her eyes filled with despair and anger.
"Dad, I've already said I don't agree to this!"
This glance made Wu Zhenyuan feel that the daughter in front of him was very unfamiliar, but after all, it was Wei Zhibin who stepped in to solve the problem, and besides, he was the heir of the Wei family, one of the four great families in Kyoto!
Seeing Wu Youyou's stubbornness, Wu Zhenyuan was instantly filled with rage.
"Look at yourself! Isn't it because you like Shi Zhan that you rejected the engagement? Don't you ever think about it? Wei Zhibin is the heir of one of the four great families in the capital. Where else can you find such a powerful heir? If you marry Wei Zhibin, you'll be a person of high status in the future. Why can't you understand that?"
Seeing the father and daughter getting carried away, Song Lan quickly tried to dissuade them.
"Zhenyuan, don't pressure our Youyou like this. Look how young she is, she hasn't even gone to university yet. You're already making her marry someone, even if the other person is the emperor's son, she'll find it hard to accept all at once. Just give her some time!"
He Qiangwei also stepped forward to dissuade Wu Zhenyuan.
“Dad, Aunt Song is right. You shouldn’t pressure Youyou about this. I understand perfectly well that Youyou doesn’t want to get married. Isn’t there any way to keep her from getting married?”
"Sigh, this matter isn't that easy!"
Song Lan sighed. As a mother, how could she not be angry and complain about this? But she knew there was no effective way to deal with it.
Looking into He Qiangwei's eyes, Wu Youyou knew that He Qiangwei desperately wanted her to marry into the family. Thus, Wu Youyou began her first scheme, her voice turning into a cold laugh.
"Dad, didn't I say before that you could adopt a daughter and marry her off to Wei Zhibin? Now that there's He Qiangwei, isn't she more suitable than me!"
Wu Zhenyuan glanced at He Qiangwei involuntarily and found that she didn't seem to mind Wu Youyou's suggestion. Not knowing what to say, he could only speak to the two of them...
"Don't think about this for now. Let's talk about it after the college entrance exam."
Wu Youyou got up and said she was full, so she went back to her room first.
When everyone was asleep at night, He Qiangwei, wearing her pajamas, went to the living room to pour herself a glass of water. Just then, she ran into Wu Youyou, who was also in the living room.
With no one else around, He Qiangwei naturally didn't need to be friendly to Wu Youyou. Instead, she walked over arrogantly, looked at Wu Youyou, and said sarcastically,
"Didn't expect that I would end up moving into the Wu family's house!"
Wu Youyou looked at her and recalled her past life. He Qiangwei moved into the Wu family because she was her older brother's girlfriend and her best friend. That's why they gave her the best room on the east side. Now, she finally understood that this was not fate at all, but a conspiracy from the beginning. No matter which method she took, the result was that she moved into the Wu family.
Wu Youyou glanced coldly at He Qiangwei and gave a light sneer.
"I'm not happy about you moving into my house, but I'm not surprised because I'm used to it!"
He Qiangwei didn't understand what Wu Youyou meant by "habit," but she just couldn't stand that Wu Youyou could remain calm and composed even at this point, and that arrogant attitude was what she hated the most!
Just then, Wu Maoyan was about to walk over. He Qiangwei saw him immediately, and as Wu Youyou walked past her to leave, He Qiangwei slapped herself hard, then fell to the ground. Turning to look at Wu Youyou, her voice choked with emotion, tears streaming down her face like a spring.
"Youyou, I'm sorry, it was my fault. You can hit me if you want, but how could you insult my mother?"
Wu Youyou was not quite there yet, wondering what He Qiangwei was up to.
Until Wu Maoyan rushed over and scolded Wu Youyou,
"Youyou, you've gone too far! How could you hit Qiangwei?"
When Wu Youyou saw that it was her older brother, she understood He Qiangwei's intention: she was trying every means to create conflict between herself and her family.
When Wu Youyou saw her older brother help He Qiangwei up, she shamelessly leaned into his arms, pretending to be an injured little bird.
Wu Youyou was furious. How dare she try to seduce her older brother?
Wu Youyou pulled her out of Wu Maoyan's arms and slapped He Qiangwei hard across the cheek, the same side that Shen Yi had slapped earlier.
He Qiangwei's new wounds had not yet healed, and her old wounds were aggravated by the slap. The pain made her see stars, her ears rang again, and blood gradually seeped from the corner of her mouth.
Wu Youyou looked at her coldly.
"It's only satisfying to slap someone yourself. Now you can tell everyone I hit you!"
Wu Maoyan never expected his little sister to be so quick. Seeing her say such things, he felt that his little sister was so unfamiliar, so unfamiliar that he felt a chill.
Wu Maoyan quickly stepped forward to help He Qiangwei to a seat on the sofa, and then began to scold Wu Youyou.
"Youyou, what happened to you? How could you hit the rose?"
Wu Youyou looked at Wu Maoyan with some heartache. In her past life, she deceived you, betrayed you, and framed you. How could your car suddenly have brake failure when it was perfectly fine? He Qiangwei did all of this. How can you still protect her?
But Wu Youyou couldn't say these things aloud. She looked at Wu Zhenyuan's tender care for He Qiangwei with complicated emotions, feeling an indescribable sadness in her heart.
