After lunch, Liu Wudi swiftly issued a notice to convene a family leadership eting to completely resolve the turmoil caused by the forced marriage, eliminate the dissenting voices against him, and restore peace to the family.
Because it was an ergency eting, within half an hour of the news spreading, the core mbers of the Liu Family began to arrive one after another at the reception hall of Liu Wudi’s villa. There had been word beforehand, so most of the senior mbers of the Liu Family had stayed on Tianjing Mountain, which was why they could gather so quickly.
Once everyone was present, Liu Wudi sat at the head of the table and, without intending to hide anything, directly said, "Everyone, the main purpose of suddenly gathering you all here today is to introduce soone! He is the person standing next to . You might not have much of an impression of him, but you must have heard his na! Because he is Ye Xuan, the future husband of my daughter."
The na Ye Xuan was not just familiar to these Liu Family mbers; it was absolutely famous!
So, after Liu Wudi finished speaking, everyone turned to look at the young man next to him, with various expressions flashing in their eyes.
Regarding the content of this eting and what Liu Wudi intended to do, they had long since guessed, so these old foxes were not at all surprised! They were only curious about the na Ye Xuan, and after taking a look, they turned their eyes away.
Taking note of everyone’s reactions, Liu Wudi paused slightly, then continued, "Everyone is aware of Ye Xuan’s situation. You all know his background! I won’t say more about that. What I want to talk about today is my daughter Liu Ying and her engagent with Wang Shaoyang—it has been canceled!"
"Now, there are no ties between Liu Ying and Wang Shaoyang or the Wang Family in Shangjing, and she has officially chosen Ye Xuan as her husband. They are truly in love and have already ford an engagent! So, Ye Xuan is now my daughter’s fiancé, and his status is that of my son-in-law to both and the Liu Family! From now on, we are all one family."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief, imdiately started exchanging looks, and began to discuss.
"This matter is finally settled. With Ye Xuan becoming the son-in-law of our Liu Family, there’s no need to worry about the Wang Family’s attitude anymore!"
"Yeah, isn’t that the truth? For this whole ti, I’ve been on edge, afraid of retaliation from the Wang Family. Now I can finally get a good night’s sleep!"
"The emotions between n and won are really frightening; the saying ’a beautiful woman can bring disaster’ is not wrong at all! Just take this incident, for example; it almost brought an irrevocable disaster upon the family! But we’ve finally gotten through it, and let’s hope nothing like this happens again, or it might scare into illness..."
"You’re overthinking it. Of course, it won’t happen again! With Ye Xuan as our son-in-law, how would the Wang Family dare to move against us? Unless they have a death wish themselves!"
"Yes, the Wang Family, being a prominent family, values benefits above all. They would never act rashly in matters that could harm their interests!"
"That’s right!"
...
This part of the conversation reflects a relatively optimistic mindset, believing that Ye Xuan can help the Liu Family solve all difficulties! However, alongside optimistic people, there are naysayers with an inherently pessimistic mindset, feeling that things are not that simple.
"I think we shouldn’t have too high expectations of him. People are inherently selfish. Ye Xuan might dare to go against the Wang Family for Liu Ying because she is his woman, but he might not necessarily confront the Wang Family for the Liu Family! Don’t forget, just a few days ago, he even caused a commotion at the Liu Family!"
"There’s a point to that. Honestly, he’s only the son-in-law of Liu Wudi’s family, not of the whole Liu Family! Who knows if he even regards the Liu Family as important?"
"I have a concern: does Ye Xuan truly like that girl Liu Ying, or is he just playing around? Don’t you know? He has more than one woman by his side, all of them are exceptionally beautiful. He might not keep his attention on Liu Ying. If he’s only interested for a short ti and ends up ditching Liu Ying, then who will protect us when that happens?"
"I agree with this view, which is why I’ve always been inclined towards the Wang Family! At least if Liu Ying married Wang Shaoyang, she could have been the main wife, right? As the main wife of the Wang Family, our Liu Family could benefit from it too. But marrying Ye Xuan, who knows where she stands? She might not even have an official status. No matter how you compare, it’s quite a loss..."
"Hey, keep your voices down. Now everyone is leaning towards Ye Xuan. If others hear us, it won’t end well for us!"
While these people were privately discussing, Liu Wudi, sitting at the head position, showed little change in expression as his gaze swept over the crowd.
After a short mont, he continued to speak: "Ladies and gentlen, earlier you argued incessantly because of this matter. Now that the Wang Family voluntarily withdrew the engagent, the issue is resolved. I think it’s ti for the debates to end and for everything to settle down!"
"Here, I hope that in the future, you’ll stop bringing up my daughter’s marriage as a topic. Xiao Ying is my daughter, and her marriage should rightfully be her own decision, not for others to intervene in! If I find out anyone sticks their nose too far into this, don’t bla for being impolite!"
"Furthermore, my daughter has already set an engagent with Ye Xuan. From now on, Ye Xuan is the son-in-law of the Liu Family, while the Wang Family and Wang Shaoyang are things of the past, and they have no relationship with the Liu Family going forward. I’ll say it again: those of you who were in the Wang Family’s camp should change your stance in a tily manner and make the correct choice, or else I’d have to exercise my rights as Family Head."
Liu Wudi’s words were powerful and resonated throughout the room, creating an eerie silence in the air.
In this matter, there had always been significant disagreents, with so supporting Liu Wudi and others strongly opposing!
But today, after hearing Liu Wudi speak, it seed no one dared to openly oppose or at least, no one dared to be the first to speak against it.
After a brief silence, voices began to rise in the room.
"Family Head, since niece Liu Ying has chosen Ye Xuan, then Ye Xuan is naturally our Liu Family’s son-in-law. We will certainly support him!"
"That’s right! Earlier, we were coerced by the Wang Family, which is why we had no choice but to yield and select Wang Shaoyang. Otherwise, who would willingly throw their own child into the fire? After all, we watched Xiao Ying grow up, and of course, we wish her happiness!"
"Yes, now that the Wang Family has voluntarily broken the engagent and will no longer threaten us, of course, we won’t choose them again!"
"We support Xiao Ying and recognize Ye Xuan as the son-in-law of the Liu Family..."
