As Xing Ziling walked into the house, before she had time to change her shoes, she was surrounded by several sisters. They made things difficult for her and spoke ill of her.

At this moment, Xing Yuxuan walked over quickly, his eyes wide open with anger, and shouted fiercely at the sisters: "Don't go too far!" As he said that, he helped Xing Ziling up.

However, facing her brother's protection, Xing Ziling did not feel the slightest warmth. Her brother's tone was full of helplessness and powerlessness, which made her heart feel as if it was being pricked by a needle.

Seeing that Xing Yuxuan dared to get angry at them, the sisters became even more unscrupulous and started punching and kicking Xing Yuxuan. In order to prevent things from getting worse, Xing Yuxuan endured it silently and did not fight back.

Mother came over and said, "Behave yourself, our new boss is coming."

The sisters said disdainfully: "Humph, how great can it be!"

Xing Yuxuan frowned and said, "It's already this late, don't cause any more trouble."

The mother glared at them and said sternly, "Be quiet, everyone! If anyone messes up, you'll be in trouble!"

When An Junde came over, his mother smiled and said, "Welcome to our humble home. You really make it a great honor."

The older sister and brother also hurriedly welcomed them with smiles on their faces, saying, "Welcome, welcome. It's our honor to have you here."

Xing Yuxuan helped Xing Ziling up and said angrily, "We can't stand this."

Xing Ziling said, "Brother, don't be impulsive."

An Junde walked over and said, "What's going on?" He looked straight at Xing Ziling.

The mother said palely: "It was an accidental bump, it's nothing serious."

Xing Yuxuan angrily pushed An Junde's hand away and said, "Don't touch my sister!"

The sister approached An Junde and said, "Don't dirty your eyes."

An Junde frowned and said, "What the hell are you doing?"

My sister quickly smiled and said, "Oh, Mr. An, don't be angry. They are just playing around with each other and don't know what's going on."

An Junde snorted coldly: "Are you kidding? I don't think it's that simple."

At this time, Xing Ziling couldn't help but say, "Mr. An, it's not what you see."

An Junde looked at her with a hint of inquiry in his eyes: "So, tell me, what's going on?"

Xing Ziling bit her lip, wanting to say something but stopping herself. Her mother quickly interrupted, "Ziling, stop talking nonsense."

An Junde's face darkened: "Stop hiding things. We must make things clear today!"

Lin Yue? Xing Ziling's mother, Lin Yue, said with a smile, "This is just a little fight between children, it's harmless."

Xing Yaqin's eyes were as charming as silk. She reached out and gently touched An Junde, saying in a sweet voice, "Sir, you are of noble status. Why do you care about these children's playful things? My sister was just being naughty for a moment. Am I right, Xing Ziling?"

Xing Ziling's heart tightened, and she was slightly startled, but she nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, I was just joking."

Lin Yue asked in confusion, "An Junde, what brings you here today? What brings you, my distinguished guest?"

An Junde pushed away Xing Yaqin's hand without hesitation and said seriously, "I'm here to talk to your father. I have something important to discuss with him."

Xing Ziling looked up at An Junde, her eyes full of complicated emotions. Seeing this, Xing Yuxuan hurriedly said to Xing Ziling: "Sister, there is nothing for you to do here, go back to your room and rest."

Xing Ziling's face was filled with anxiety, and she said anxiously, "Brother, I..."

The eldest brother stepped forward, blocking Xing Yuxuan's way, and said in a bad tone: "Oh, Xing Yuxuan, don't meddle in other people's business."

Lin Yue raised her voice and shouted, "Xiaoyue, don't be rude."

He responded in a muffled voice: "Mom, I know."

Lin Yue said with a smile on her face, "My husband went out for something." She winked at Xiaoyue. Xiaoyue understood and hurried off to call her father.

Lin Yue turned around and looked at An Junde eagerly with a flattering smile on her face. She said, "An Junde, I have many daughters. I wonder which one you like? I can let my daughter accompany you."

An Junde frowned, his face showing disgust, and said sternly: "Who do you think I am!"

The smile on Lin Yue's face froze, but she quickly recovered and said eagerly, "Really, I promise I will satisfy you." As she spoke, she reached out to pull the corner of An Junde's clothes.

An Junde pushed Lin Yue's hand away with force, his eyes full of anger.

Lin Yue, however, said something even more coercive: "An Junde, please don't be ungrateful. This is something many people would beg for but can't get."

An Junde sneered and said, "Okay, then I'll choose." Then he strode towards Xing Yaqin.

Xing Yaqin immediately smiled and lowered her head shyly.

However, An Junde suddenly turned around and put his arm around Xing Ziling's waist.

Xing Yaqin turned pale with anger, staring at An Junde with wide eyes as he hugged Xing Ziling's waist and said angrily, "I choose you!"

Xing Ziling looked at him and instinctively wanted to push him away, but An Junde leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Think about it, I'm here for you, give me some face."

Xing Ziling was slightly stunned and stopped struggling.

Seeing this scene, Xing Yuxuan was so angry that he clenched his fists and glared.

Lin Yue quickly said, "Xing Yuxuan, don't be rude!"

Lin Yue said in a panic, "Mr. An, children don't understand things, please don't take it to heart."

Lin Yue also said: "Just choose Xing Yaqin, Xing Ziling has a very strange personality."

An Junde, however, took Xing Ziling into his arms, sat on the sofa, teased Xing Ziling's chin with his fingers, and said, "I like her like this."

Lin Yue's face turned pale. Xing Yaqin clenched her fists in anger and muttered inwardly, "Why?"

Xiaoyue came with her father, followed by a wealthy man named Zheng Qian.

He saw An Junde and Xing Ziling and frowned.

The father shouted, "What's going on?"

An Junde simply said, "You should ask Madam Lin Yue."

Zheng Qian said in panic, "This...this is outrageous!"

An Junde said coldly: "This is what Madam Lin Yue meant."

The father was furious. He raised his hand and slapped Lin Yue, shouting, "Nonsense!"

My father continued, "This is Zheng Qian's fiancée. Since you let Xing Ziling give her to An Junde."

Lin Yue covered her face, looked at him in disbelief, and said, "Master, I...I am doing this for the good of our family."

Zheng Qian looked at An Junde with a smile on his face. An Junde gently let go of Xing Ziling, stood up, straightened his clothes and said.

Xing Ziling's father's name is Xing Hongcai.

Xing Hongcai said, "Mr. An, I have something to discuss with you."

He bowed respectfully and said, "This is a family scandal. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. Wait a moment."

Xing Hongcai said: "Zheng Qian, this is my Xing Ziling."

Zheng Qian raised his eyebrows and said, "Uncle Xing, your daughter seems to have quite a personality."

Xing Hongcai said with an apologetic smile: "Zheng Qian, I have spoiled my daughter. If there is anything wrong, please bear with me."

Zheng Qian put his hands in his pockets, shrugged and said, "Uncle Xing, don't say that. It's normal for girls nowadays to have some personality."

An Junde stepped forward and said with a smile, "Xing Ziling, I didn't expect to see you here."

Xing Ziling looked bewildered and said, "An Junde, why are you coming to my house?"

Xing Hongcai quickly scolded, "Zi Ling, don't be rude!"

An Junde waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Uncle Xing, Zi Ling and I are friends."

Zheng Qian asked curiously, "Friends? What kind of friends do you mean?"

An Junde scratched his head and said, "We're just ordinary friends. We met by chance."

Xing Ziling rolled her eyes at An Junde and said, "Who are you and I just ordinary friends?"

Xing Hongcai's face darkened and he said, "Zi Ling, if you continue to be so willful, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."

Zheng Qian tried to smooth things over and said, "Alright, alright, everyone calm down. Since we're all acquaintances, let's have a good chat."

Zheng Qian raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Now that we've met, I'm your fiancé."

Xing Hongcai's face was full of smiles, and a shrewd look flashed in his eyes. He said, "Master Zheng, it is a blessing for our Zi Ling to marry you. If this marriage goes through, it will be of great benefit to both our families."

Xing Ziling's eyes widened and she shouted angrily, "Dad, how could you do this? My marriage is not a transaction!"

Xing Hongcai's face darkened and he scolded, "Zi Ling, don't be willful! This concerns the interests of the family!"

Zheng Qian crossed his arms and watched the father and daughter quarrel with interest.

Zheng Qian pinched Xing Ziling's chin and said, "Don't be so angry. Maybe we are a good match."

Xing Ziling slapped his hand away and glared at him, "Suitable? You're dreaming! I won't let anyone push me around!"

Zheng Qian sneered: "Hmph, it's not up to you. You can't be willful about this. Your father has already agreed."

Xing Ziling turned to look at Xing Hongcai, her eyes full of disappointment: "Dad, are you really going to push me into the fire pit?"

Xing Hongcai avoided her gaze and said in a firm tone: "Zi Ling, this is all for the family, so just be obedient."

Xing Ziling bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes: "I always thought you loved me, but I didn't expect that in your eyes, I was just a tool that could be used to exchange for benefits."

Zheng Qian put his hands in his pockets and said nonchalantly, "There's no point crying, it's already been decided."

At this time, An Junde couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward and said, "Zheng Qian, don't go too far. Forcing a girl is not a skill."

Zheng Qian glanced at him sideways: "This is a matter between me and her, it has nothing to do with you."

An Junde: "Xing Ziling is my friend, I won't stand by and watch her get bullied."

The situation was at a stalemate and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Zheng Qian said: "Just you?"

An Junde put his arm around Xing Ziling's waist and said provocatively, "This is what Madam Lin Yue said. She has been matched with me."

Zheng Qian's face darkened as he said, "Nonsense! How could such a thing be so absurd!"

An Junde sneered: "Believe it or not, this is the fact anyway."

Xing Ziling broke free from An Junde's embrace and shouted angrily, "What do you think I am? An object? Fight for me if you want!"

Zheng Qian and An Junde were both stunned and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

At this time, Xing Hong said anxiously: "Stop arguing, stop arguing, let's take a long-term view on this matter."

Xing Hongcai said, "Zheng Qian, this lady was just joking."

Xing Yuxuan walked to Xing Ziling and gently comforted her, "Don't be afraid, sister. I'm here and I won't let you suffer any injustice."

Lin Yue was so angry that she ignored Xing Hongcai and turned away.

Zheng Qian took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, then said, "Let's discuss this slowly."

Xing Hongcai quickly asked him to sit down and, with a smile on his face, talked about marriage: "Mr. Zheng, although this matter has some twists and turns, we can still discuss it and find a solution that is the best of both worlds. If you have any ideas about this marriage, please feel free to ask."

Xing Yaqin came over and said, "Sister, you don't want to, but I agree to be with you."
