Chapter 2051: Really Tired
Qi felt complicated when he heard that.
He would never marry Tang Fanghua.
He had never thought about this before, and the thought of it made him feel uncomfortable. Of course, he would not do it.
However, this situation couldnât persist indefinitely.
Especially when Old General Xu Xiangyang and other senior figures began to express concerns about the ticking clock of a womanâs age. Delaying matters could leave Tang Fanghua labeled as an old maid. Qi knew he couldnât avoid addressing the issue forever.
Yet, despite their efforts, including those of the senior figures and their spouses, Tang Fanghua remained unyielding. She rejected all matchmaking attempts.
In a bid to quash any romantic notions between Qi and Tang Fanghua, the group concocted a plan to make them sworn siblings. It seemed like an ideal solution at first.
However, Tang Fanghua vehemently opposed the idea. She desired to be Madam Shao, not a sworn sibling. Despite the pressure, she stood her ground, insisting she wasnât worthy of being sworn siblings with General Shao.
Her refusal was unwavering, and no amount of coercion could sway her. Frustrated, they had no choice but to let the matter rest.
Their collective indignation was palpable.
Dealing with Miss Tang proved more exhausting than battling Beihu warriors. Truly, she was a formidable opponent.
Facing internal conflicts was draining. Qi grew concerned for Fifth Brother, Fifth Sister-in-law, and his family. After deliberating with the old generals, he decided to return home to visit them.
To Qiâs surprise, Tang Fanghua expressed a desire to accompany him. She claimed admiration for Lord Shao and Madam Shao, wishing to meet them.
Qiâs agreement to her request stemmed from his intention to seek advice from his family on handling her. Thus, he acquiesced.
However, traveling alone with her was out of the question. Even with servants and attendants, it wouldnât suffice. Therefore, he enlisted Qin Yuanshan and Yuan Mi to accompany them.
Qin Yuanshan and Yuan Mi harbored their own reservations toward Tang Fanghua, so they readily agreed.
Learning of their inclusion, Tang Fanghua and the others didnât seem too pleasedâŠ
Qi poured out his troubles in one breath. âFifth Brother, Fifth Sister-in-law, what should we do about this?â
Shao Yunduan grew irritated. âLook after yourself. You canât marry her, and donât let her scheme against you!â
âI understand, I understand!â
Qiao Xuan interjected with a smile. âNow that the debt has been settled, you neednât feel burdened. Simply send her back to her hometown. If sheâs clever, sheâll understand what to do.â
Shao Yunduan nodded in agreement. âWhen you depart, you neednât take her with you. Iâll arrange for someone to escort her back home.â
Though Qi was eager to comply, he hesitated. âBut what if she refusesâŠâ
Shao Yunduan sneered. âItâs not her decision to make.â
Qiao Xuan chimed in with a smile. âQi, youâre too kind-hearted. Itâs understandable to feel uncertain in such a situation, especially with Miss Tangâs position. Youâll learn to handle it better.â
It was unusual for Qi to not be coerced into agreeing with Miss Tangâs wishes. After all, he had saved her life. It was natural for him to feel hesitant.
Grateful for his brother and sister-in-lawâs support, Qi felt a wave of relief. With them in charge, he could finally relax a bit!
