Chasing You Like a Tenacious Falcon

Chapter 142

Quan Zhisui continued to cast her fishing rod, reel it in, and focus on fishing, as if her earlier words were nothing more than a casual "good morning," completely oblivious to the immense pressure she had just put on the other person.

Yan Yue's expression shifted repeatedly as she observed Quan Zhisui, her heart sinking bit by bit.

After a long while.

Yan Yue took a deep breath and spoke again, "Quan Zhisui, please break up with Wei Shixu."

Quan Zhisui's lips curled almost imperceptibly as she asked, "Why?"

Yan Yue faced her and said solemnly, "Because there's no place for you in a family alliance marriage."

Quan Zhisui's lips curled again as she replied, "Oh, I refuse."

"Quan Zhisui, can't you be more sensible?" Yan Yue's voice rose slightly.

"If Quan Feng were still alive, perhaps you might have had a chance to stand beside the Wei or Yan Families. But Quan Feng is dead! What does the Zuo Family amount to? Your father doesn't measure up. He's not worthy!"

As Yan Yue spoke, her mind recalled the scene of Zuo Zhiyu running to Gusu like a stray dog, begging her father with a pitiful and submissive attitude.

Her words were harsh but undeniably true.

The gap in status was just too vast!

Quan Zhisui paused and said, "Don't speak about my mother."

Yan Yue nodded, "Fine, I apologize."

Quan Zhisui remained silent.

Yan Yue continued, "The alliance marriage between the Yan and Wei Families is inevitable. The two great families have been in conflict since the last century, and it's time to resolve their grudges. There's no better opportunity than now."

Quan Zhisui asked, "Are you willing to go through with this marriage?"

Quan Zhisui: "Why? Surely it's not because you like Wei Shixu, is it?"

Yan Yue: "Why can't it be because I like him? Tell me, who in the entire Jiangnan region is more outstanding than Wei Shixu? Whether it's his looks, his family background, or his personal abilities, he surpasses everyone else."

Quan Zhisui smiled faintly, "Then why do you think he would agree?"

Yan Yue: "He has no choice but to agree. This is the best solution. The Wei Family is proud, but are they really going to risk everything to fight the Yan Family to the death? There's no need! In families like ours, interests always come first."

Quan Zhisui looked at her and smiled, "You're the most formidable rival I've ever encountered."

"Should I thank you for the compliment?" Yan Yue also smiled, then added, "However, I don't need praise from someone whose family background is inferior to mine."

Quan Zhisui: "Is family background everything to you people?"

Yan Yue's gaze sharpened, "Not everything, but how can an ordinary person's ten years of hard work compare to generations of business in my family? This world has never been fair!"

Quan Zhisui: "Indeed, it's not just Yan Guanghua who is impressive. The children of the Yan Family are also remarkable."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Yan Yue took a deep breath and said, "So, have you agreed to break up with Wei Shixu?"

Quan Zhisui: "No."

Yan Yue frowned, "The Wei Family will never accept you. Are you planning to be the mistress in our future marriage, someone who can't even show her face in public?"

Quan Zhisui began to reel in her fishing rod, "Wait a moment."

Yan Yue glanced at her and said coldly, "Fine, I can discuss the matter of being a mistress with you properly."

Qian Cheng: "..."

The Wei Family is full of lunatics.

And so is the Quan Family.

...

The Yan Family's convoy drove out of the Wei Family's Old Mansion. The mother and daughter hadn't even gotten a chance to meet Wei Jingsan.

In the back seat of the car.

Su Mei held her daughter tightly, stroking her back.

Yan Yue was furious, repeatedly asking, "Will Dad kill her for me? Will he?"

Su Mei comforted her, "Your father will handle it. He won't let you be bullied."

Yan Yue: "I was humiliated at the Wei Mansion. Quan Zhisui slapped me in the face, which is like slapping Dad. And since this happened at the Wei Mansion, it's as if the Wei Family has slapped the Yan Family!"

Su Mei frowned but said nothing.

The situation was serious. The alliance marriage was likely off the table.

...

At school, Wei Shixu's phone vibrated.

Five seconds later, he got up and left the classroom, walked out of the school gates, and got into the Wei Family's car.

In the dining room, Wei Jingsan was gnawing on a roast duck.

Wei Shixu walked in, glanced at him, and asked, "Having fun?"

Wei Jingsan tossed a duck bone aside and said, "Lots of fun."

Wei Shixu turned to a servant and said, "Take this away. Bring him a proper meal."

Wei Jingsan was furious, "Don't tell me what to eat!"

Wei Shixu ignored him and walked to the room at the end of the second floor. He knocked on the door.

Quan Zhisui: "Come in."

Wei Shixu opened the door, stepped inside, and locked it behind him with a click.

Quan Zhisui looked up at him, confused.

Wei Shixu pulled open his school uniform jacket, lowered his head, and bit the collar.

With a sharp tug.

Whoosh...

The zipper came undone in one swift motion.

"You can have me anytime," he said.

Quan Zhisui: "???"

Wei Shixu: "I was already tempting when I was ten. Everyone wanted a piece... Do you want to try?"

Quan Zhisui: "!!!"
