The three of them were in the stairwell and overheard Mr. Liu talking about the arranged marriage!
Hearing this, Ou Junâs face immediately turned very gloomy.
Xia Chuyi furrowed her brow, but it was Fang Caiqin who didnât react much.
Ou Jun was too angry, focusing all his attention on the father and daughter from the Liu family, and didnât notice Fang Caiqinâs unusual behavior.
Meanwhile, Xia Chuyiâs gaze happened to catch Fang Caiqinâs expressionâFang Caiqin seemed unconcerned about what the Liu family was saying?
Fang Caiqin merely showed a hint of surprise and then became very calm and indifferent.
Xia Chuyiâs brow furrowed even more.
However, at this moment, she didnât have time to delve into this matter.
The situation in front of her was more important.
Mr. Liu, looking completely unconcerned, smiled and said, "Itâs just an engagement, not marriage. Anyway, even if itâs marriage, you can still divorce!"
"General Ou, as long as you agree to the marriage alliance between the Liu and Ou families, the Fang family will naturally be satisfied," Mr. Liu said confidently, patting his chest.
Upon hearing this, Ou Zhenting became even more furious.
Then, Ou Zhenting coldly snorted and deliberately eyed Liu Yingying up and down, nodded, and said, "Mr. Liu is right, Miss Liu is both beautiful and talented, educated overseas, sophisticated and intelligent..."
Listening to Ou Zhenting speak, Mr. Liu and Liu Yingying thought he was about to agree, showing smug expressions.
Unexpectedly, in the next moment, Ou Zhenting changed his tone and said, "So, with Miss Liu being so excellent, I fear my Junjun, a reckless soldier, is unworthy!"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu was taken aback, "What did you say? You disagree?"
"Sorry, I canât agree," Ou Zhenting said coldly, revealing the fierce aura of a soldier.
At this point, Mr. Liu realized that Ou Zhenting truly disagreed!
The previous amiable demeanor was all an illusion!
Suddenly, Mr. Liu was somewhat flustered and angry, pointed at Ou Zhenting and said, "Ou Zhenting, are you disrespecting me?"
"Disrespect... Mr. Liu, did you consider my face when asking my Junjun to break off the engagement?" Ou Zhenting, after all a soldier, immediately made Mr. Liu cower when actually confronted.
"You..." Mr. Liu pointed at Ou Zhenting, speechless for a long while.
However, Liu Yingying furrowed her brows and said, "Uncle Ou, I think you shouldnât act on impulse."
"A marriage alliance between our two families is beneficial for both of us."
"Besides, I believe I am far superior compared to other women in the Capital City!"
Upon hearing this, the enraged members of the Ou family were momentarily silent.
Xia Chuyi sighed, wondering if Liu Yingyingâs face was made of the Great Wall.
Shaking her head, Xia Chuyi could no longer stand listening and stepped out from the stairwell.
"Miss Liu, where does this confidence come from, thinking youâre so excellent?" Ou Jun squinted, his smile not reaching his eyes, and pulled Fang Caiqin out, saying, "There are plenty of women in Beijing better than you..."
She was about to mention "My sister-in-law," but Liu Yingying became very excited upon seeing her.
"Why is she here?" Liu Yingying hesitated for a moment and said, "General Ou, do you disagree with the marriage alliance because of this woman?"
Upon seeing Xia Chuyi, Liu Yingying immediately concocted her own dramatic scene.
"Isnât the unwillingness to break the engagement just an excuse?" Liu Yingying said, arrogantly, "Ou Jun fancying this university student, thatâs the truth, isnât it?"
