Chapter 250: Actually, Your Daughter Already Has Someone She Fancies
Yuan Pandi was not losing her head.
As the old saying goes, having your own is better than relying on parents.
As the parents of Yuan Shougui, they had no status or position of their own, what skill would it be to rely on their brothers?
Alright, even if it were because of their brothers’ relationship that this marriage was possible, what kind of status does the Sheng Family have, wouldn’t they have demands?
Could they meet those demands?
They certainly couldn’t.
By then, they would just have to go to Yuan Yindi.
Once is fine, twice is tolerable, what about three times? Four times?
Although Yuan Pandi didn’t have much capability, he had backbone.
"Husband, what about our Shougui then?"
Mrs. Li looked anxiously at Yuan Pandi, "Are we just going to stand by and do nothing?"
"What is there to manage?"
Yuan Pandi snorted, "In a few days, I’ll visit Shiqu Village. If that brat has figured it out, I’ll bring him back. Otherwise, let him stay there by himself!"
"Husband, how can you be so heartless!"
Mrs. Li actually understood well that Yuan Pandi was right, what he said made sense. But, he is their own son, how could they just ignore him?
"It’s not that I’m heartless!"
Yuan Pandi sighed, "If I could, I would also want Shougui to get what he wants. But where in the world are such convenient matters?"
"Alright, don’t bring this up anymore."
"Everything, let’s talk after I return from Shiqu Village!"
Yuan Pandi waved his hand decisively, cutting off Mrs. Li’s words, and even put an end to the topic directly.
...
Outside Sanchuan City, in Shiqu Village
Yuan Shougui’s days had not changed much compared to earlier in the year.
But at the Sheng Family Manor, not far from Shiqu Village, there had been some changes.
Sheng Xueyi’s father Sheng Lu and her stepmother Su Fu were trying hard to mend the relationship with Sheng Xueyi, attempting to make her believe that everything they did was for her.
Unfortunately, Sheng Xueyi had a keen insight and already knew the nature of her useless father.
Although in her past life she hadn’t met her stepmother Su Fu, from this life’s encounters, Sheng Xueyi was pretty sure that her stepmother was no pushover.
Not to mention, Sheng Xueyi had already learned from Mrs. Wu’s lips that her father and stepmother had special plans for her.
"Xue’er, pack up and come back with us to the Capital in a few days!"
More than a month had passed after the New Year, and Sheng Lu and Su Fu finally decided to return to the Capital.
During this time, they had tried everything in their power, but unfortunately, the results weren’t significant.
Sheng Xueyi’s attitude towards both of them remained somewhat distant.
This situation made Sheng Lu and Su Fu quite unhappy.
Yet they couldn’t do anything to Sheng Xueyi now, they couldn’t beat her, and they couldn’t scold her. With plans in mind, many things were different.
"Dad, I’m not going back to the Capital!"
How could Sheng Xueyi possibly follow Sheng Lu back to the Capital?
She still hoped to find and leave with the members of the Yuan Family through Yuan Shougui. The five sons of the Yuan Family were the helpers she wanted to secure!
If she left here and the Yuan Family found Yuan Shougui, wouldn’t she miss it?
"Nonsense!"
Upon hearing Sheng Xueyi’s refusal, Sheng Lu’s face immediately darkened, "Your previous arranged marriage is already off, come back with me, and I’ll have your stepmother find you another match!"
"Staying in this backcountry, how could that work?"
"Dad, please stop!"
Sheng Xueyi looked up at Sheng Lu and slowly spoke, "Actually, I’ve already met someone I like."
