330: Chapter 330: My Happiness is in My Own Hands!
Seeing Fang Bai publicly acknowledge his relationship with her daughter in front of Jiang Fenglian and her son, Sun Lin’s face grew even colder.
“Mr.
Fang, I am grateful to you for saving Wui and teaching her martial arts.
However, when it cos to Wui’s lifelong matters, as a mother, I hope she can find a well-matched, ideal partner, and you…
are not suitable for Wui…”
Although Sun Lin’s words were relatively implicit, the underlying aning was clear to everyone present: Fang Bai and her daughter were not of the sa social standing, and he was not qualified to beco the son-in-law of the Ye Family.
Ye Wui’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing her mother belittle Fang Bai; she feared that Fang Bai would have a verbal altercation with her mother, which would put her in a difficult position caught between them.
Ye Wui knew that although Fang Bai ca from an ordinary family, his identity was anything but ordinary.
Just take last night’s charity auction, for example.
Lu Jianfeng from the Lu Family, Dongfang Rushi from the Dongfang Family, Hua Yi from the Hua Family—every one of these heirs from prominent clans were courteous to Fang Bai.
Even the couple, Lu Xingping, treated Fang Bai with the utmost respect, addressing him as “Master.”
Moreover, Ye Wui had witnessed Fang Bai’s miraculous dical skills firsthand, which even the four great National Doctors of the ti could not match.
Based on this alone, Fang Bai’s status was second to none.
And the martial arts techniques that Ye Wui cultivated were all taught by Fang Bai, and the wonder of these techniques could only be appreciated by her personally.
If her mother knew about these things, she probably would not have spoken of a “well-matched” match.
In Ye Wui’s eyes, Fang Bai, with his divine dical skills and unfathomable strength, was an omnipotent Master.
When it ca to the issue of “being well-matched,” she actually felt unworthy of him.
“Mom, how…
how could you say that?
Fang Bai, he…”
Ye Wui, out of frustration, stamped her foot, wanting to speak up in defense of Fang Bai, but was stopped by a look from him.
Fang Bai did not get angry; he simply smiled lightly and said frankly, “Auntie Sun, as soone who has been through it all, you should know that matters between n and won should be based on mutual affection and willingness.
Even if you marry Wui to soone she does not like, what good is being well-matched if she is not happy?”
“My daughter’s marriage is my decision!
Nobody else has the right to interfere!”
Seeing that she had made herself clear, Sun Lin grew even more impatient with Fang Bai, who still did not know to back down, and her words beca even more curt.
Jiang Fenglian and Wang Dong watched the argunt with cold eyes, inwardly pleased.
Although Jiang Fenglian was dissatisfied that Sun Lin had concealed the fact that her daughter had a boyfriend, if she could drive Fang Bai away, the two families could still sit down and have a proper discussion.
Jiang Fenglian coveted the Ye Family’s influence in Lingnan, while Wang Dong coveted Ye Wui’s beauty.
A marriage alliance between the two families would be beneficial for the Wang Family as a whole and for Wang Dong personally.
Fang Bai laughed proudly, wrapping Ye Wui in his arms and said with overwhelming authority, “Wui is your daughter, true, but she is also my, Fang Bai’s, woman!
You want to go against her will and marry her into the Wang Family, I do not agree!
With here, no one can make her suffer the slightest grievance!”
“You…
you…
Wui, co here!
Stand by your mother’s side!”
Sun Lin’s eyes widened with anger, her chest heaving violently.
Seeing her mother and Fang Bai arguing, Ye Wui’s eyes reddened anxiously, and she was on the verge of tears.
“Mom, why…
why are you forcing to marry soone I don’t like?”
Although Ye Wui was a dutiful daughter, she knew she couldn’t succumb to her mother regarding her own lifelong happiness; if she did, she would lose not just Fang Bai, but also her lifeti of happiness.
“Wang Dong is a very outstanding young man.
You haven’t spent ti with him; how do you know you don’t like him?
Your father and I were brought together by our parents’ decision too, and don’t we live well now?
Wui, listen to , you and Fang Bai really aren’t suitable…”
Sun Lin justified herself confidently by citing her own marriage with Ye Xing as an example.
Having been married for many years, they lived in mutual affection and love, indeed a model couple.
This was clearly understood by their daughter, Ye Wui.
However, Ye Wui also knew that her parents’ happy marriage was an exception and that, in this world, most couples who married without affection and solely for the benefit of their families didn’t speak of happiness after their marriage.
“Mom, I can’t listen to you this ti.
I want to control my own happiness!
I also believe that my choice is the right one!”
Ye Wui declared defiantly, with tears swirling in her beautiful eyes.
Ye Wui had never talked back to her mother before.
She felt aggrieved and uneasy; if it weren’t for Fang Bai by her side, she might have already lost control of her emotions and burst into tears.
Ye Wui ca with Fang Bai intending to act out a scene to foil the arranged eting for Sun Lin and Jiang Fenglian, but she had beco completely absorbed in the act without realizing it.
The words she spoke now were her true feelings.
Sun Lin didn’t expect her normally obedient daughter to turn against her for Fang Bai’s sake, causing her to lant that “daughters are hard to keep by your side” and her face to beco uglier.
“Wui, you’ve disappointed !
I can tell you clearly, it’s impossible for you to be with Fang Bai!
Unless you no longer recognize your mother or this family!”
Sun Lin said, overco with exasperation.
Ye Wui froze, disbelief in her eyes as if she had not expected her mother to say such things.
Then, a wave of sorrow washed over her, and tears fell like rain.
“Mrs.
Sun, as a mother, instead of considering your daughter’s happiness, you’re pushing her into a pit of fire!
You’ve disappointed too!”
Fang Bai, seeing Ye Wui crying her heart out, felt pity.
His palm softly stroked her back, and his gaze towards Sun Lin was sowhat icy.
He changed his address from “Auntie Sun” to “Mrs.
Sun.”
Facing Fang Bai’s icy stare, Sun Lin felt a chill as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, a sense of fear enveloping her, leaving her speechless for a mont.
“Ill-mannered wretch, who are you calling a pit of fire?
I think you’re the one who is…”
Jiang Fenglian, hearing Fang Bai’s remark about being “pushed into a pit of fire,” knew he ant the Wang Family where she belonged, imdiately took offense, placing her hands on her hips, scolding vehently in her shrewish nature.
Slap—
Jiang Fenglian hadn’t finished speaking when her face was struck by a slap, leaving five red fingerprints visible on her cheek.
