Chapter 1934 - 108: Agree to My Conditions
Resolute in her decision, she decided to face any unpredictable variables with steadfast immobility. Let’s see what tricks this person is planning to play.
Yan Xiyu looked at her coldly.
"Of course, there’s a condition for sparing your life: you must agree to my request."
"Oh?"
Dong Huiying crossed her arms, grinning in a particularly nonchalant manner. Her careless demeanor was almost a carbon copy of Third Brother Liang.
After a moment, Dong Huiying was completely baffled, her eyelids twitching wildly.
Yan Xiyu’s expression was indifferent. "So? This won’t harm you in the slightest. Besides, things between you and Qin Xuan have always been murky. If you can lend me a hand, all past grievances will be wiped clean."
Dong Huiying grimaced and sucked her teeth.
To this day, the people of Dongcui were still in the dark, unaware that Young Master of Qin Family was actually Yue Ning in disguise, and the real master was Yixuan.
And this Yan Xiyu, even if their interactions were few, Dong Huiying could still understand that she was a petty person who held grudges.
Her so-called ’wiping clean’ could be dismissed as nonsense. Right now, she wanted to use her to break off the engagement, only to settle scores later. Dong Huiying believed that Yan Xiyu was certainly capable of such things.
However, what concerned Dong Huiying the most was this ’breaking off the engagement.’
Logically, the Yan family and the Qin family were well-matched. Although there were rumors unfavorable to the reputation of Young Master Qin, wise people wouldn’t give them credence. Anyway, she was quite puzzled.
Was this Yan Xiyu out of her mind, or was there some hidden truth?
Otherwise, why was she so obsessed with breaking off the engagement like she was possessed?
Since she wanted her as an ’external aid,’ it showed she couldn’t decide this matter on her own.
Which meant, the Yan Family Master wanted to arrange this marriage, but Yan Xiyu was against it. Unable to win against Yan Family Master, she had to seek other strategies?
With various thoughts crossing her mind, Dong Huiying suddenly drawled, "Alright."
It seemed she agreed.
Yan Xiyu subtly breathed a sigh of relief, raising her hand to press against her temple. A plain yellow wooden bracelet hung on her fair wrist, yet this simple yellow wood seemed oddly mismatched with her luxurious attire.
It was as if things from two different worlds were forced together.
Dong Huiying couldn’t help but glance at her again, a slight contemplation flickering in her heart.
...
The carriage procession arrived outside the gates of the Qin family residence. Yan Xiyu handed over her visiting card, and the servants of the Qin Mansion came to welcome them.
It was the same conference hall as last time. Upon entering, Yan Xiyu’s face darkened considerably, recalling the humiliation she had suffered there previously, having made a fool of herself and even being severely beaten.
Her expression twisted into a momentary shadow of resentment.
Next, she saw inside the conference hall, besides the Second Elder and his inseparable confidant, there was also an elegant middle-aged woman.
This beautiful woman was the head of the Yan family and its authority holder.
Yan Xiyu put on a fake smile. "So, Mother is here too."
She addressed the Yan Family Master as ’mother’ with her mouth, but there was not a hint of affection in her eyes. It seemed insincere, even filled with distrust and resentment.
Yan Family Master took a sip of fine Biluochun tea. "What a coincidence. You always avoid me, but today you come with me. It makes me truly pleased as your mother."
Yan Family Master was amiably courteous, and even though Yan Xiyu clearly showed her disdain, she continued to greet her with a smile.
This so-called ’mother-daughter’ relationship, their way of interaction was truly peculiar.
