Chapter 301 - Chapter 301: Chapter 294: Fiancée Steps In_1 (2/2)
Tang Wenhаn was adamant.
“Qin Niu, I respected you as a hero, but I didn’t expect you to treat my sister with such contempt. I’m telling you clearly today that my sister does not have to marry you. There are plenty of distinguished young masters willing to marry her with eight palanquins.”
Tang Bin also said angrily on the side.
“I know this matter has made you very angry, please allow me to explain a few words. First, I have no intention of belittling Cai Xian. The betrothal gifts I presented to the Wang Family were the same as what I brought to your family. Second, I met Wang Wanyan before I met you. In those days when I was destitute and couldn’t even afford a meal, it was she who gave me alms and helped me survive the toughest times.
I can promise you, although Cai Xian will be a concubine, I will definitely not mistreat her, much less betray her deep-sea-like affection.
Also, if given the chance in the future, I will definitely help Cai Xian’s maiden family become a strong clan.”
Qin Niu wasn’t just bragging.
With his current strength, he was already slightly surpassing the Yan Family.
At the very least, he was on par with the Yan Family.
Now that the Green Demon Bee had hatched and both Green Ox and Termite were growing, his own cultivation was also improving. It would only take a year or two to completely surpass the Yan Family.
By then, Tang Wenhаn would be his father-in-law and Tang Bin his brother-in-law, undoubtedly receiving some preferential treatment.
“Stop fantasizing here. Even if you’re just an ordinary Insect Master now, even if you become a high-ranking member of the Black Tiger Gang, I will not agree to marry off my daughter to be your concubine. Our Tang Family won’t sacrifice our daughter’s lifetime happiness for the benefit of the clan.”
Tang Wenhаn refuted angrily.
“Father is right. This kind of glory and riches obtained by sacrificing our sister, we Tang Family don’t want it.”
Tang Bin echoed as well.
The father and son were indeed of one mind.
“Father, brother, thank you for loving me so much, but what I want to tell you is that marrying Qin Niu as a concubine is my greatest happiness. Marrying those young masters as a principal wife is not the love I want, and I wouldn’t be happy.”
Tang Caixian came down from upstairs.
Or rather, she had been eavesdropping all along.
Accompanying her was a rather beautiful middle-aged woman, presumably Tang Caixian’s mother.
“You… you’re confused!”
Tang Wenhаn stood up abruptly, raising his hand to strike his daughter.
But his wife shielded her.
“Our daughter is just sharing her true feelings, why strike her?”
“I want to smack some sense into this foolish girl. A fine principal wife she could be, able to marry into the city, yet she insists on marrying this Qin Niu. And to be someone else’s concubine at that.”
Tang Wenhаn bellowed with rage.
“Father, I know you want what’s best for your daughter, but you don’t understand what your daughter truly wants. Please, I beg you, agree to Qin Niu! Okay?”
Tang Caixian seemed quite pampered at home.
Even if her father was furious beyond measure, she didn’t appear afraid.
She still tried hard to fight for her father’s agreement.
“If you want me to agree, wait till I’m dead! Hmph… This is truly maddening.”
Tang Wenhаn gasped for breath, his breathing harsh.
Just as both parties were at a stalemate, a cool and pleasant female voice came from outside.
“May I ask if Uncle Tang Wenhаn is home? Wang Wanyan has come to visit specially.”
Everyone was momentarily stunned.
The situation was already chaotic enough, and Wang Wanyan’s arrival at this moment was akin to adding fuel to the fire, wasn’t it?
“Please come in!”
Tang Wenhаn sat back in the master seat, and his wife, along with his daughter Tang Caixian, did not go upstairs.
Wang Wanyan entered, wearing a fitted white dress.
“Miss Wang Wanyan pays her respects to Uncle Wenhаn!”
“What brings you here?” Tang Wenhаn asked with a blank expression on his face.
Only his tone had softened somewhat.
