When Pei Chi returned to the house, it was dinner time. Not long after he sat down, he heard Pei Yu coquettishly asking Mrs. Pei how she should dress tomorrow.
Pei Chi became more and more confused as he listened, and couldn't help but ask, "What are you going to do tomorrow?"
Pei Yu was a little shy and embarrassed to tell him.
Mr. Pei, on the other hand, shook his head and sighed: "King Cheng will come over tomorrow to propose marriage."
Hearing this, Pei Chi suddenly stood up from the table, but was immediately pushed back by Mrs. Pei, "Sit down first."
Pei Chi looked at his parents in disbelief, "No, when did you agree? Don't you, my parents, know exactly what kind of person Gu Chengxuan is? How could you agree to him!"
"I haven't agreed yet." Mr. Pei frowned.
"He's coming to our house to ask for his hand in marriage, and you still said you didn't agree!" Pei Chi obviously found his father's words unconvincing.
Mrs. Pei comforted him and said: "Chi'er, your father and I did not agree with your sister being with him at first. Aren't we afraid that Yu'er would be bullied? But he is King Cheng after all, and he can withstand the pressure and make the decision to marry him. With Yu'er's behavior, mother can't really slander his thoughts towards Yu'er, at least it's true."
When Pei Yu heard this, her nose felt slightly sour. She sniffed and nodded gently, as if she was just confirming a fact with herself, "The prince really loves Yu'er..."
Mr. Pei: "..."
Pei Chi was silent for a moment and said, "So you agreed to him? What if he reveals his true colors after marriage and bullies Yu'er?"
"This is unlikely. If he dares to marry Yu'er, dad will know that he is serious. Besides, Gu Chengxuan is not that kind of person. Don't worry."
Pei Chi still couldn't understand why his parents' attitude towards Gu Chengxuan had completely changed just a few days later, as if Gu Chengxuan's marriage to Pei Yu cost Gu Chengxuan half his life.
After eating, Pei Chi returned to his courtyard in a depressed mood. Not long after, Mrs. Pei came and knocked on the door.
Pei Chi opened the door and was slightly startled when he saw his mother coming over, "Mother, why are you here..."
Mrs. Pei looked at him helplessly and smiled, "Do you feel that your parents are not doing this safely?"
Pei Chi frowned, and while walking in with Mrs. Pei, he said, "I just can't trust that guy Gu Chengxuan."
"Chi'er, because of the Gu Chengxuan incident, your sister has been having trouble with the family for a long time. In fact, as parents, in the final analysis, we just want Yu'er to be happy. You can also see that Yu'er really wants to fight She likes Cheng Wang in her heart, so her parents can’t help but let her like her... "
Pei Chi couldn't help but snorted: "What can a little girl like her know?"
"Don't tell me, my mother always thought Yu'er was ignorant before, but last time she told me firmly in front of her parents that she wanted to like someone. At that time, my mother felt that Yu'er was not sensible. I'm not playing around." Mrs. Pei said, sighing deeply, "Mom, after thinking about it, let Yu'er make her own decision. Since she is willing to marry him, my parents have nothing to say. .”
Pei Chi frowned and did not say anything immediately.
"Mom came here to tell you this. I just hope that you will take care of it tomorrow and not embarrass your sister. Think about it from another perspective. As long as Yu'er is happy, it will be fine. Do you understand?"
