Elder Shen was ashamed facing Elder Xi's interrogation. He sighed and said, ”Elder Xi, to be honest, we really don't want this to happen, but the Lin family did save my daughter so how can I continue suppressing them?”

”So, you're so appreciative of their help that you couldn't wait to be in-laws with them‽” Elder Xi questioned angrily.

Anger also showed on Elder Shen's face when they talked about that. ”It is really not my intention that we become in-laws!”

”Tong Yan and Lin Xuan are getting married. Do you still want to lie to my face?”

”That is something that I can't help with.” Elder Shen sighed helplessly. ”Everyone knows that granddaughter of mine fancies that kid from the Lin family. Having her all cooped up recently probably had caused some resentment within her. She found a chance to slip out of the house and the first thing she did was to go find that Lin family kid, one thing led to another and… They ended up together! My Little Yan later told me she's already his woman and would marry no one other than him, so what other choice did I have? Furthermore, Xiao Ru agreed to this marriage, so how can I deny them anymore? Even the Tong family had no choice but to relent so what could I do?”

”You mean, the two of them…” Elder Xi frowned.

Elder Shen nodded as all the light of hope went out of his eyes. ”That's right. If this didn't happen, I would do everything in my power to crush that despicable Lin family! How dare they scheme against us, scheme against the Shen family's only bloodline‽”

However, what choice did he have?

The Lin family acted so despicably against Tong Yan but the girl was stupid and willing enough to be used by Lin Xuan, so no matter how influential they were, they were powerless since Tong Yan had already given herself to Lin Xuan.

All the elders' hands were tied when it come to this girl, so they had no choice but to accept this engagement.
