Old Mrs An trembled in anger and wanted to rain curses, but when she saw An Xia twirling her finger on the mouth of the cup, she quickly suppressed them.
She did not wish to have a cup in her mouth!
As such, the members were quiet again and did not dare to speak incessantly.
An Xia once again directed her line of sight at Old Mr Bo. Her eyes remained calm and dark. Although she might seem tranquil at first, there was danger and mystery wrapped around her.
She said, “Please continue.”
Old Mr Bo could somewhat sense An Xia’s intentions and no longer spoke in a roundabout manner like before.
“The eldest missy from the An family has committed a great sin, and even took the initiative to cancel the engagement. Even though the Bo family is benevolent and is hesitant to do so, the eldest missy from the An family insists. As such, the Bo family can only agree.”
“Xia Xia, will you accept it?” Old Mr Bo gave emphasis to the last words.
The An family were in great panic. Aren’t the Bo family outright ruining the An family’s name?
“I object…” Second Mrs An, who had been reducing her presence, suddenly stood up and spoke imposingly. At the corner of her eye, she noticed An Xia’s expression which sent goosebumps throughout her body and she quickly sat back down.
Mu Ning Xue’s heavy heart once again fell. If the Second House continued to object, then how long more would this have to drag on?
What’s the use of reputation?
Only by possessing it will it be useful!
An Yang Yang also secretly let out her unhappiness as she continued praying for the success of the cancellation while enduring the aching in her heart.
The one who was strongly against the demand was Mother Ye, and she cried, “Sir, if you do that, what will become of our Xia Xia? I’ll never agree to it.”
What!
She’ll never agree to it?
An Zi Qin was furious, “You b*tch, your daughter killed someone, and you still want her to marry into the Bo family? You must be out of your mind for a frog that wants to eat swan meat!”
As expected, he was punished by An Xia.
The expression on An Xia, who sat opposite him, didn’t look good. She threw the saucer accurately and it smashed against his forehead.
It was utterly shocking and blood flowed down his forehead.
“One more curse I hear from you, the place to bleed will be somewhere else.” An Xia’s dagger-like gaze pointed straight at An Zi Qin’s throat. An Zi Qin felt a chill down his spine and cold sweat formed on his back.
He did not wish for that to happen…
If so, it would be best if he kept quiet.
Old Mr Bo let out a heavy sigh deep down as he suppressed his swirling mind.
An Xia’s sort of tyranny was rather similar to Old Mr An back then.
A pity that the change happened too late.
The Imperial City’s Ye family had an interest to be connected to the Bo family by marriage. Unfortunately, Ye Meng Wei was Old Mrs Ye’s step daughter. As such, the An family could only abandon her as she was not useful.
As the An family’s joker, An Xia had once again shocked all the members present. And so, she comforted her mother, “Mom, I know what you’re worried about. I’ll deal with it properly.”
Mother Ye’s reason for objecting to the cancellation was already mentioned before. As long as that worry was resolved, then she would naturally agree to the cancellation.
Since her daughter was determined to cancel the engagement, Ye Meng Wei finally relent, “alright.”
That acknowledgement caused the mother and daughter, Mu Ning Xue and An Yang Yang, to grasp each other’s hands excitedly under discretion. Now, what’s left is the token!
Despite being careful, Old Mr Bo was in no hurry to request for it to be returned. Instead, he asked An Xia, “Since Xia Xia has agreed to it, then I’m sure you’ve a demand in return.”
“Let this old man guess. Xia Xia’s demand must be related to the Song family, am I right?”
An Xia raised a brow. The Bo family’s old man was indeed interesting and sly like a fox. Not only was his plan to keep his family’s reputation from being ruined, he even went ahead to play the good person until the end. With him as the head of the Bo family, the An family really did not deserve to be connected to them by marriage.
As for the Song family, she wasn’t even concerned about them.
However, it was all in order to let her mother be at ease.
Satisfied, she nodded, “Yes, and I’m sure you know how to deal with them.”
