Shang Yafang went straight to her father, Shang Yuanlan.

Shang Yuanlan saw the wide smile on Shang Yafang's face. Before she could say anything, he smiled genially and said, ”Little girl, why are you so happy? Have you found your father a son-in-law? That's why you're in such a good mood?”

Shang Yafang blushed and said, ”What nonsense are you saying, Father? Big Brother Shaoyun is big brother's friend. I was only bringing him back to wait for big brother.”

She knew that few things in the clan could be kept from her father. Someone had long reported to her father about the man she had brought home.

”Shaoyun? Xiang Shaoyun?” Shang Yuanlan asked in astonishment.

”Yes, him,” Shang Yafang replied.

”That doesn't make sense. Your brother left with some men to help him up, so why is he here alone?” Shang Yuanlan muttered doubtfully. ”Bring him to me.”

”Yes, Father,” Shang Yafang agreed, not daring to question her father.

But before she could leave, Shang Yuanlan stopped her. ”Wait.”

”Is there anything else, Father?” Shang Yafang asked.

”You're already 19. It's time you found yourself a husband,” Shang Yuanlan brought up a completely random topic.

Shang Yafang's face turned unsightly as she said, ”Father, are you chasing me out of the clan?”

The moment the words left her mouth, tears trailed down her cheeks, making her look incredibly pitiful.

Shang Yuanlan did not see that coming. He quickly explained, ”What? So you don't like Xiang Shaoyun? Fine, forget it then. Just pretend I hadn't said anything.”

Shang Yuanlan had heard of Xiang Shaoyun's freakish physique from his son. Coincidentally, his daughter had suddenly brought that freak back home. He had a.s.sumed that his daughter had actually taken a liking to Xiang Shaoyun. It would seem like he had been making his conclusion too early.

Shang Yafang stopped tearing and asked, ”Father, y-you're going to match me with Xiang Shaoyun?”

”Hehe, that was the plan. I heard from your big brother that Xiang Shaoyun is an outstanding young man. But since my daughter doesn't like him, for you, I won't,” said Shang Yuanlan.

A bashful look covered Shang Yafang's face as she said softly, ”Father, i-if it's him, I c-can give it a try.”

By the time she finished her sentence, her face had turned completely red, and she no longer dared to meet her father's eyes.

When Shang Yuanlan saw his daughter's expression, he laughed heartily and said, ”Haha, very well. Bring him to me. Let me see just what's so special about this kid to be able to attract even my daughter.”

At that, Shang Yafang jogged away, her heart thumping heavily with embarra.s.sment as she thought to herself, What is wrong with me today? Have I gone mad?

After calming herself down, she returned to Xiang Shaoyun's guest house. She found that Xiang Shaoyun had already taken a bath and was dressed in a new clean outfit. Looking at the clean and smart Xiang Shaoyun exuding a graceful temperament, she could almost picture a halo hovering around him. She stared at him in a daze.
