Li Qianqian quickly got up, but Zhao Xiaolan beat her to it, saying, "I'll go see who it is."
None of them noticed, assuming it might be someone else from the village.
Zhao Xiaolan opened the door and immediately saw Zhao Xiaohe. "Xiaohe, what's wrong...?"
Before Zhao Xiaolan could finish speaking, she noticed that Zhao Xiaohe's expression was off. Only then did she notice Sun Qi standing behind Zhao Xiaohe.
Judging from his clothes and appearance, this person must be someone extraordinary. Zhao Xiaolan immediately became wary.
She asked in a cold voice, "May I ask who you are, young master?"
In the courtyard, Zhao Xiaolü and Li Qianqian walked over, also unaware of what was going on.
The two men, naturally unfamiliar with Sun Qi, looked at him with wary and unfamiliar eyes.
Sun Qi stared directly at Li Qianqian, a half-smile playing on his lips. Such attention towards a woman was somewhat disrespectful.
Li Qianqian immediately felt a little angry and asked with slight rage, "Who are you!"
Sun Qi then looked away, stepped forward, bowed, and said, "My name is Sun Qi. I apologize for disturbing Miss Li."
He Tiantian heard the commotion outside and came over as well.
The moment she saw the man outside dressed in fine clothes, she knew he was no ordinary person. Hearing Sun Qi's words, He Tiantian's heart sank to the bottom.
After learning Sun Qi's identity, everyone's expressions turned sour.
Li Qianqian's face turned pale instantly, and she stumbled back a few steps.
Then, a surge of anger welled up inside him. "You're from the Sun family? I never agreed to this marriage from the very beginning. If you want to marry me, you might as well marry my stepmother!"
The air seemed to freeze, and everyone glared at Sun Qi with hatred.
Zhao Xiaohe lowered his head guiltily and stood to the side, shrinking back. He really didn't mean to bring his enemy here; it was just that this person hadn't given him a chance to refute him.
Sun Qi glanced at everyone's reactions with amusement, then flicked his sleeves and said casually, "Don't be nervous, everyone. Although I'm a member of the Sun family, I don't approve of my father's usual practices. Otherwise, I would have brought people here today. Why would I have brought this young man out of the Sun residence?"
It turns out he's the eldest son of the Sun family...
However, even the eldest son of the Sun family wasn't something everyone knew very well beforehand. Even Li Qianqian didn't know.
What Sun Qi said makes sense, but is the matter really as simple as he makes it out to be?
Seeing that everyone looked unconvinced, Sun Qi continued to explain, "Don't you believe me? If I hadn't rescued this young man, do you think he would be standing here safely?"
He Tiantian stepped forward and asked directly, "Young Master Sun, what is your reason for helping us?"
Sun Qi raised an eyebrow and thought about the question seriously.
"Would you believe me if I said it was just a spur-of-the-moment thing?"
Everyone obviously didn't believe it! Li Qianqian was even more skeptical, because she didn't know Sun Qi at all! They had no connection, and this young master Sun had no reason to help her.
