The tribesmen who were originally playing music and laughing happily were also confused.
The sounds of music, laughter, and talking all quieted down instantly. The originally noisy entrance of the Chi family suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Chi Zishu in confusion.
Seeing this, Mu Qingli hurried forward and asked with concern: "Zi Shu, what's wrong with you?"
Yang Xinyi and Yang Lingxiao also gathered around, while the girls in the village stood aside, covering their mouths and whispering to each other.
"Chi Zishu, what do you want?" Long Pinqing felt terrible when he saw Chi Zishu like this.
He seemed to see that the admiration of the young people in the village had turned into ridicule, and he felt that he had lost all his dignity.
Maybe others don’t know what’s going on, but he knows in his heart that Chi Zishu doesn’t want to marry him.
"Brother Pinqing, you knew it so clearly, why did you still do this? We are getting engaged today, such a big thing, why didn't you tell me? All of you know about it, but you only treat me, the person involved, as a transparent person?" Chi Zishu stood up with the help of Mu Qingli and the others, crying and shouting.
"What's going on?"
"How come the Saint doesn't know she's getting engaged today?"
"No wonder it took him so long to come out. He must have been getting dressed up!"
"The girls in our village are all free to marry, so why would someone arrange a marriage for the Saint?"
"Chi Zishu and Long Pinqing are recognized as the golden couple in our village. They have been together for so many years, they should have gotten married long ago!
What if I didn't tell her about the engagement because I wanted to give her a surprise? Long Pinqing is so handsome and majestic. He is the most outstanding young man in our village!
Mu Qingli and the others heard the girls in the village talking about Chi Zishu, and for a moment, they didn't know what to say or how to persuade them.
"Zishu! I just wanted to give you a surprise, but unexpectedly, you also gave me a big surprise. I thought you would be very happy, but unexpectedly, you were so angry!" Long Pinqing may have heard the girl's discussion, and said to Chi Zishu affectionately.
Chi Zishu instantly felt that Long Pinqing's appearance was very annoying. She had said long ago that she always treated him as her brother, but he was surprisingly indifferent. Today he even pretended to be innocent and talked about surprises and such a big scare.
Mu Qingli and the others had nothing to say about this matter. After all, at the beginning, everyone thought that Chi Zishu and Long Pinqing were a couple.
You said you clearly didn't like him, you should have made it clear long ago! If you think it's just brotherly love, a brother who has been inseparable from his sister for so many years...
"You did it on purpose! Isn't it funny? Now let me put it this way, your Long family doesn't respect me at all, and I refuse to get engaged to you!" Chi Zishu said with a cold face.
When Chi Zishu said this, the elders of the Chi family and the people of the Long family were stunned and looked at each other.
"Zi Shu! What are you talking about?" Seeing this, Chi Wanjun scolded with a cold face.
"Dad! How could you treat me like this!" Chi Zishu's eyes were full of disappointment towards Chi Wanjun.
"Zishu, the relationship between you and Pinqing has been tacitly agreed upon by both families since you were young. What's wrong with letting you get engaged now?" Chi Wanjun persuaded patiently.
"No! It's simply not right!" Chi Zishu said firmly.
She knew that what she did today was a bit too much, but she also knew that if she didn't do it today, she would have no chance in the future and would be at the mercy of others.
"Chi Zishu! What do you mean? You have been with my brother for so many years, and now you regret it? You don't take my brother seriously, and you don't take our Long family seriously!" At this time, Long Pinru pointed at Chi Zishu and cursed.
Her face was full of anger, but her eyes were filled with gloating glee. She didn't want Chi Zishu, who always felt superior, to marry into the Long family. It would be too disadvantageous for her.
Chi Zishu looked at Long Pinru coldly, too lazy to pay attention to her. She felt that this unruly and unreasonable Long Pinru was not worthy of talking to her at all.
"Wanjun, is this the attitude of your Chi family? You are really going too far!" Long San was originally happily chatting and laughing with the elders of the Chi family, but when he saw what happened here, he couldn't help but look cold.
"Long San, Zishu was wrong in this matter! Don't take it to heart with her!" Chi Wanjun said with a smile.
"Haha! I don't want to argue with her either. So tell me, are we going to get married today?"
"We must marry! Of course we must! Our two families have been friends for centuries. We can't let them become enemies in this generation. That would go against the wishes of our ancestors!"
"Then tell me, how do we get married?" Long San had a questioning look on his face and a very bad attitude.
Chi Wanjun just kept smiling and compromising, which made Chi Zishu a little angry.
"Dad!" Chi Zishu shouted unwillingly.
"Zishu! Stop it!" Chi Wanjun turned around and said helplessly to Chi Zishu.
"Dad! I don't want to marry into the Long family!" Chi Zishu refused firmly.
"It seems that our marriage cannot be completed. A forced melon is not sweet. Let's forget it. Our Long and Chi families cannot become enemies because of this. Since Zishu doesn't want to get married, don't force her!" Long San smiled frankly and said sincerely.
"Long San, this..." Chi Wanjun said with some embarrassment.
"Uncle Jun, since Zishu has always treated me as her brother, then I will also recognize her as my sister! As a brother, there is nothing wrong with my taking care of and protecting her over the years!" Long Pinqing said with a forced smile, acting as if he was very generous.
Long Pinqing's attitude had completely changed from before, which made everyone even more confused. However, there was no doubt that his words had put Chi Zishu on the spot.
