"How could this be?"

"Didn't you say you were going to come back to me?"

"Xie Ze, you're a big liar. You lied to me in my dreams, and you lied to me in reality too."

A wave of discomfort washed over me, my chest felt tight and painful, and tears slowly welled up in my eyes.

It looks just like pearls flowing down one by one.

Qiao Wanwan cried for a moment, still finding it hard to accept. She shook her head slightly, hardly daring to believe it. She continued to curse at the stone tablet:

"Xie Ze, you're a villain, how could you possibly die! In the book, you live to be a hundred years old. Even if Qiao Wanwan died, you shouldn't be dead. Are you lying to me? Get out of there!"

"You're clearly the villain who killed Qiao Wanwan, and I'm still alive! How could you possibly be dead! Liar. You're a complete liar!"

Qiao Wanwan slammed her hand on the stone tablet, as if trying to wake the person inside.

Zhong Shi and Chun Xia watched as the woman frantically questioned the stone tablet, but they couldn't understand her.

They assumed that Qiao Wanwan had suffered a severe blow this time, causing her great harm.

To the point that he's become somewhat mentally disturbed.

"Miss…"

Chunxia felt very sorry for her young lady when she saw her so sad.

Perhaps the young lady truly likes him, otherwise why would she have become like this?

Unfortunately... Young Master Xie still left.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

No matter how much the woman knocked and pounded on the stone tablet, her fingers became bruised from the effort, it was all in vain.

She could only bury her face in her hands and cry, cursing incessantly.

"You bastard, you liar, you filthy villain, you pervert! Come back here! You promised to come back to me!"

……

Since Qiao Wanwan returned to the Qiao family mansion in a daze, she has resumed a life where she has lost interest in everything.

She sat quietly in the courtyard, holding a wooden carving in her hand, staring blankly at the peach tree in the yard.

Pink petals drifted down with the wind, landing on the woman, covering her with a thick layer of petals, yet she remained unmoved.

Quietly, she was deeply and earnestly thinking about something.

Qiao Qingfeng, standing outside the courtyard gate, looked at his daughter sitting in the courtyard, lost in thought, and felt too embarrassed to disturb her.

He stopped Chunxia, ​​who had just come out, and whispered:

"Wanwan, is it still like this now?"

"Yes, Alliance Leader. After Miss came back, she didn't cry or make a fuss, and she ate normally, but she just couldn't muster any interest. She didn't even want to go out to buy jewelry, which she used to love the most."

"Hey!"

Qiao Qingfeng sighed deeply.

He raised his finger as if to blame Chunxia, ​​but then, remembering something, he suppressed his anger and withdrew it.

"You, you, knowing full well what your young lady is like, still sent her to Anqi City? Look how upset she is now!"

Spring and Summer were reprimanded by the alliance leader. She lowered her head, feeling wronged, and whispered:

"Alliance Leader, you agreed to this matter first, otherwise how would Chunxia dare to act on her own?"

"... "

Upon being reminded, Qiao Qingfeng's expression stiffened, and he felt somewhat embarrassed.

Yes, he's forgotten.

Without my consent, how could a servant have the ability to take the young lady out on his own?

"Cough cough."

He coughed lightly twice to cover up his embarrassment.

"Forget it, let's not pursue this matter any further. I need to think about how to make my precious daughter happy."

After saying that, he turned and left in frustration.

"Congratulations, Lord Alliance Leader."

...

In the study, Qiao Qingfeng, having just finished discussing serious matters, suddenly asked his subordinate a question:

"Do you have any ideas on how to make my precious daughter happy?"

"this…"

The elders sitting in their seats exchanged slightly puzzled glances.

Only then did they begin asking:

"Is Alliance Leader Qiao referring to your daughter?"

"Of course, I only have one precious daughter, Wanwan. If I'm not talking about her, then who am I talking about?"

"I heard that your daughter has suffered a heartbreak; we should comfort her right now."

"Then how do we do it?"

"Haha, that's easy!"

"Oh?"

An elder stroked his white beard and said:

"Kids all love to go out and play. I think it would be nice to take them to the countryside to fly kites. My grandson really enjoys it."

"This method..."

Qiao Qingfeng envisioned this countermeasure.

He happily held the kite, stood smiling in front of his beloved daughter, and gently invited her to ask:

"Wanwan, would you like to go to the countryside with Daddy to fly a kite?"

"... "

Qiao Wanwan glanced at him, speechless at his sudden invitation. She turned her head away, annoyed, and teased:

"Dad, I'm not a child anymore. I don't like kites. I find them boring. If you want to play, go play by yourself. Don't bother me."

"click"

As a result, Qiao Qingfeng was disliked by his beloved daughter, and a crack appeared on his mask.

He bit his handkerchief, whimpering pitifully.

Oh my god, Wanwan rejected me.

Realistically, Qiao Qingfeng shook his head violently at the thought of this outcome.

"No, this will make Wanwan think I'm too childish. This method won't work, next one."

Another middle-aged man offered a solution, saying:

"Since it's a heartbreak, let your daughter meet a new man, and she'll forget about that person, won't she?"

"What are you thinking? Do you think my daughter's feelings are just a game? My precious daughter is just like me, a deeply affectionate person."

"What other way is there? We can't let your daughter keep thinking about the deceased. We can distract her by having her look at potential husbands. Maybe she won't think about that person anymore."

“That’s right. The Alliance Leader’s daughter is only 17, a beautiful age. She can’t just keep waiting for a dead man, can she? Now that the Alliance Leader’s beloved daughter has taken a liking to her husband, it’s just the right time for them to get married.”

"!"

Qiao Qingfeng was just beginning to react when he heard them come up with this terrible idea.

He was immediately silenced by the other party.

"Alliance Leader, please don't rush to refute. As a father, you will eventually grow old and can't stay by your daughter's side forever. We know you love your daughter very much, but it would be better if you could find a husband who can take care of her and protect her in your place. Isn't that a better choice?"

"... "

Qiao Qingfeng found this reasonable and slowly shut his mouth.

They're right, they'll all grow old eventually, and it's impossible for them to stay with Wanwan forever.

He would feel at ease as long as he found someone who could take care of Wanwan.

Seeing their opportunity, the elders began to introduce themselves.

"Now is the perfect time to start looking for a husband. I have someone I can introduce you to; would you like to learn more about him, Alliance Leader?"

"I also have a grandson who can..."

"Don't fight over this one, I'll introduce the best one, I guarantee the Alliance Leader will like him."

"... "

A group of elders were arguing noisily as they introduced themselves, creating a chaotic scene of chatter.

Qiao Qingfeng was completely bewildered. He rubbed his forehead slightly and patted the table:

"Alright, I need to think about this matter some more. Go back and make a list of the people you want to introduce so my daughter can choose."

"Alright, Alliance Leader, you're very generous."

Everyone wore smiles; if you didn't know better, you'd think it was a happy occasion for them.
