Chapter 525 The Obedient Young Lady's Cold-Faced Bodyguard 20

"It's because it was my mother who made the decision that I've endured it until now," Xie Qingyu said, crying.

There's nothing she can do; that's just her constitution. Even when she's in the right, she'll burst into tears before she can even open her mouth when Xie's father questions her.

Although she didn't want to cry at all.

"Fine, fine, fine, what do you think I've been raising you all these years for? Without the marriage to the Jian family, what value do you have?" Xie's father pointed at Xie Qingyu's nose and scolded.

Qin Zheng stepped forward and blocked Xie's father's finger.

Qin Zheng remained silent in the corner. Xie's father hadn't even noticed his presence since the meal began, only realizing he was still there when Qin Zheng stepped forward.

Xie's father took a deep breath, and thinking about who had sent Qin Zheng, he suppressed his anger and began to act like a kind father.

“I was worried that you were too young and immature. This marriage was carefully chosen for you by your mother and me. Your Aunt Wen has a good relationship with your mother. She will treat you well after you marry into the family and will definitely not let you suffer any grievances. Is there anything you are not satisfied with?” Xie’s father pressed.

“I married Jian Linchuan, not Aunt Wen. He doesn’t like me.”

With Qin Zheng standing in front, Xie Qingyu seemed to have more confidence.

"I was just saying you were too young, but look how immature you are now. After all, the family has raised you well all these years. You need to understand that this is a business marriage. Whether you like it or not is secondary. I think Lin Chuan will definitely make a name for himself in the future, and you will have a good life," Xie's father said earnestly.

His words sounded quite convincing, but in reality, he was just talking about business when Xie Qingyu brought up feelings, without ever admitting that he was the one who first brought up the emotional card.

“A business marriage doesn’t necessarily have to be me. Xie Qingli can do it too.” Xie Qingyu’s finger twirled and landed on Xie Qingli.

The two people, who were originally extremely incompatible, inexplicably developed a tacit understanding when Xie Qingyu was in agreement.

Xie Qingli's eyes lit up, and she even looked at her father with a hint of anticipation, hoping that he would agree.

"Nonsense, can't you just change things like that? Your marriage with Linchuan has been arranged for so many years, everyone knows that." Xie's father rejected Xie Qingyu's suggestion without even thinking.

Even if Jian Linchuan is willing to marry Xie Qingyu, he naturally won't do anything unnecessary.

He had allowed Xie Qingli to stay with Jian Linchuan before because he could tell that Jian Linchuan didn't like Xie Qingyu and was afraid that they might want to go back on their word and refuse the marriage. After all, the person who arranged the marriage for Xie Qingyu was no longer alive, so there was nothing he could do if they didn't acknowledge it.

If that's the case, then having Xie Qingli attract some admirers could be another way.

However, now that Jian Linchuan has taken the initiative to propose marriage to Xie Qingyu, this is the best course of action.

"No one would be unaware that she's always following Jian Linchuan around. Don't many people think the engagement has already been broken off?" Xie Qingyu's statement was true; the original owner of this body had been asked this question to her face quite a few times before.

Although most of those who asked the questions were not malicious, but genuinely wanted to ask and see if they could have a chance to pursue Xie Qingyu.

However, the original owner only felt embarrassed when asked, especially if Jian Linchuan and Xie Qingli were passing by at that time.

"Don't talk to me so much. There's no room for negotiation on this matter. You don't need to go out for the time being. Just stay at home. You'll understand my good intentions later." Xie's father didn't want to waste words with Xie Qingyu, but because Qin Zheng was still there, he still said some high-sounding words.

Xie's father was adamant and completely disregarded Xie Qingyu's words.

Or rather, the reason Xie Qingyu took it so seriously was that it restricted her freedom to go out.

Even the next day when Xie Qingyu wanted to go out, someone came to persuade her not to go out, because they wanted to stop her. If Xie Qingyu went out, they would be fined by Xie's father.

They said this because they understood Xie Qingyu's somewhat soft-hearted nature.

But Xie Qingyu also had to consider them.

However, Xie Qingyu's departure was merely a test, and Xie's father did just that, fearing she would run away from the marriage.

Even knowing that Xie Qingyu probably wouldn't do something so unconventional, they still made preparations.

Xie Qingyu went home after being persuaded by her aunt, while Qin Zheng was not restricted from going out.

Xie Qingli was not restricted from going out.

Last night, Xie's father didn't let her go out, but she went out early this morning.

But he returned shortly afterward, and upon entering and seeing Xie Qingyu, he immediately sat down next to her.

"You really don't want to marry Jian Linchuan?" Xie Qingli asked tentatively.

"I don't want to," Xie Qingyu nodded.

Xie Qingli's expression showed disbelief. "Why? Didn't you always value him and wait to marry him?"

"You know I slapped him the day before yesterday?" Xie Qingyu asked directly.

Xie Qingli looked a little uncomfortable when this was mentioned. She cleared her throat and awkwardly said, "I know."

She went over to comfort Jian Linchuan, who was furious and cursed Xie Qingyu countless times.

Who knew that the next day would bring news of his marriage to Xie Qingyu? Jian Linchuan had clearly said that she was the best, unlike Xie Qingyu who was so clueless about romance.

"He's probably just trying to get revenge for slapping me, so he's deliberately trying to marry me." Xie Qingyu lowered her head at the opportune moment, showing weakness. "I don't want to marry him, anyway, he doesn't like me..."

When Xie Qingyu said the last sentence, she looked up at Xie Qingli.

Xie Qingli immediately straightened her posture and raised her head.

She knew that Jian Linchuan had a special feeling for her, or rather, that he liked her.

However, in all the time that has passed, Jian Linchuan has never mentioned breaking off his engagement with Xie Qingyu, even though he has expressed his dislike for Xie Qingyu to her several times.

Xie Qingli finds it hard to believe that Xie Qingyu is going to marry him just because Xie Qingyu slapped him.

When she asked on WeChat yesterday, Jian Linchuan said he would tell her after they met today.

But when she went to look for Jian Linchuan in the morning, he wasn't home and she didn't see him.

"Brother Linchuan doesn't like you, so you definitely won't have a good life if you marry him." Xie Qingli's words were a rebuttal to what her father had said earlier, but she only said it now.

"Well, that's why I'm not marrying him, but now my dad won't let me go out, and I don't know what to do..." Xie Qingyu said helplessly.

"I'll help you think of a way." Xie Qingli's eyes were firm.

She had never been so sincere towards Xie Qingyu as she was now.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Xie Qingyu seemed to be placing her hopes on Xie Qingli.

Xie Qingli knew about her rivalry with Xie Qingyu ever since she came to this family.

There are only two children in this family.

On the surface, she was the child brought in by Huang Manli, not Xie's father's biological child.

But the truth is that she and Xie Qingyu are the same.

But no matter how you look at it, she seems to be a head shorter than Xie Qingyu.

Xie Qingyu is Xie's father's biological child, but Xie's father only has her as his biological child.

No matter how hard she tried during her studies, she could never compare to Xie Qingyu. Even when studying art or other subjects, she was always a little behind Xie Qingyu.

This was completely unbearable for her.

Once she finally realized that Jian Linchuan was starting to dislike Xie Qingyu, she immediately came up with a good way to turn the tables.

However, it seems that some deviations have still occurred.

Xie Qingli, for reasons unknown, went straight upstairs.

Xie Qingyu went outside to the courtyard to watch the people pruning the flowers in the garden.

Everyone here seemed to be watching Xie Qingyu's every move, preventing her from sneaking away.

Xie Qingyu herself had no intention of running away at all. To be honest, she was quite content right now, although others didn't see it that way.

Especially from Qin Zheng's angle, all he could see was Xie Qingyu curled up in the recliner, looking outside, reminding him of how she tried so hard to cry last night.

Yesterday, after she went upstairs, she went back to her room and cried. Qin Zheng didn't know how long she cried.

Anyway, she didn't seem to be in a very good state when she left her room this morning, and she's been staying here ever since.

It's ridiculous that they can't even resist this marriage.

Thinking about how obedient Xie Qingyu had been all these years.

Qin Zheng didn't hesitate much, stood next to her and then squatted down.

“It’s okay, you can… you can call your cousin, that way he can’t force you,” Qin Zheng said.

Xie Qingyu looked up at him, her smile vanished from her small face.

Seeing her like this, Qin Zheng unconsciously softened his tone, "Don't worry about anything else, I'm here... with your cousin here, no one can force you to do anything you don't want to do."

“Dad won’t agree.” Xie Qingyu shook her head. “This marriage is more important to him than me.”

“That’s not up to him to decide, even if he’s your father,” Qin Zheng said solemnly. “No one can restrict your freedom. You can choose not to get married if you don’t want to.”

"Let me think about it." Xie Qingyu's expression was conflicted, probably because she didn't want to disturb Zhao Kuangxi rashly, after all, she wasn't that close to Zhao Kuangxi.

"Don't be afraid," Qin Zheng said softly.

With him around, Xie Qingyu won't be forced into marriage.

At this moment, he was even somewhat grateful for Zhao Kuangxi's arrangement. If he hadn't accompanied Xie Qingyu, he really didn't know how badly Xie Qingyu would have been bullied.

Xie Qingyu couldn't go out, but she kept wandering around the yard, making everyone in the family a little worried.

However, in the afternoon, an uninvited guest arrived here.

Jian Linchuan has arrived.

Xie Qingyu was already in the courtyard and was the first person to know he was coming.

Jian Linchuan, who had just entered, also saw Xie Qingyu. He turned around and went straight towards Xie Qingyu.

"Did Uncle Xie tell you about the marriage?" Jian Linchuan asked with a smile in his eyes.
