"No way!"
"Zhao Yu can only marry !" Liu Si Yu protested imdiately.
"Are you worthy?"
Liu Si Yu's face turned pale, realized the status of Su Xiao Xiao. She felt humiliated.
But she had no way to counter.
Compared to Su Xiao Xiao, whether in terms of family background, appearance, or age, she has no advantage in all these aspects.
The only thing she had was that she was the one Zhao Yu liked.
She felt apart from being liked by Zhao Yu, she had no other advantages.
With her silent, the Butler Su turned to the phone, "Zhao Yu, what do you say?"
From the other end, Zhao Yu was also surprised that the Su family proposed he marrying Su Xiao Xiao to him.
He had t Su Xiao Xiao before. She looked very gorgeous but she was very young, like a middle school student.
Although he was physically only around eighteen or nineteen, his soul and ntal was about thirty.
Marrying such a young girl made him feel embarrassed. After a mont of hesitation, he replied, "This condition doesn't seem suitable. Su Xiao Xiao is a good girl. Marrying her off at such a young age is not in her best interests..."
"Moreover, haven't we already reached an agreent? You invest, and I provide the technology and products…"
What puzzled Zhao Yu more was that he was currently negotiating with just a butler from the Su family.
How could this butler have the authority to discuss the marriage of the Su family's daughter?
Zhao Yu has control over the surveillance certain that there was no one else beside Butler Su at the mont. Also, there were no earpieces in Butler Su's ears to communicate with anyone else.
This indicates that from beginning to end, Butler Su was speaking on behalf of the Su family to Zhao Yu.
"An alliance through marriage, although traditional, is effective. If you want to establish the Zhao family, without aligning with a prestigious family, do you think other powers will let you rise so easily?"
Zhao Yu hesitated and then asked, "You ntioned earlier that you are a butler of the Su family. Can you really decide the marriage of Su family's daughter? Do you have that authority?"
The butler laughed, a mix of pride and lancholy in his smile.
"I share a deep bond with the head of the Su family. Half of the Su family's current status is thanks to . If it wasn't for my innate illness, the city would be governed by two families…"
Really?
Zhao Yu recorded the conversation.
Despite the butler's contributions, a servant is still a servant.
On the surface, the Su family might not say anything about Butler Su's actions. However, behind the scenes, many might harbor displeasure towards him.
Furthermore, he seed to foresee that when the Master Su passes away, it might very well be the day Butler Su ets his end.
The butler seed to have the power to decide on marrying off the Su family's daughter.
"Let's discuss a different condition. I've said before, in this lifeti, I only love Liu Si Yu. Only she can be my wife…"
Liu Si Yu, who was already feeling down, looked in disbelief at the phone in the butler's hand.
Zhao Yu....
He refused the offer of becoming a son-in-law to the Su family for her.
This was an opportunity of a lifeti.
If the opportunity was offering to her, she would never even think about it and agree to any term and conditions.
Soon, Butler Su showed a hint of displeasure. "Zhao Yu, if you don't agree to this condition, our previous agreents are null and void. You may leave but Liu Si Yu, as well as her family and friends, will be dead…"
"Zhao Yu, don't do this for . Just agree to his terms!"
Although she was deeply grateful that Zhao Yu still loved her in this situation, she didn't want to die, let alone to her family.
"Is an alliance through marriage with the Su family really that important?"
"Every family has its own ans of survival. Marrying into the Su family is an essential part of that, without any exceptions." Butler Su explained.
"Zhao Yu, you should feel fortunate. Our Su family rarely marries off our main-line daughters for alliances. Most of the ti, it's the side branches. You should feel honoured."
Zhao Yu understood that according to the Su family's attitude, without this marriage alliance, there would be no future relationship.
"All these words are pointless. I only love Liu Si Yu." However, he didn't hastily agree.
"Zhao Yu, are you out of your mind? If you don't agree, I'll die. How are you going to love ?! In the after LIFE?" Liu Si Yu shouted.
Butler Su realized the worst outco and hesitated. "Marriage doesn't necessarily have to be about love."
"On behalf of the Su family, I can permit you to be with other won, but your primary wife must be Su Xiao Xiao."
Both Liu Si Yu and Zhao Yu were amazed at this unexpected condition.
Liu Si Yu, elated, quickly urged, "Zhao Yu, what are you waiting for? Just agree to him!"
Zhao Yu calmly replied, "Si Yu, if I do this, won't I be betraying you?"
"By agreeing, you truly show your love for ," she responded.
Liu Si Yu noticed her family mbers within her line of sight still under the threaten of the ard n as Butler Su made a simple gesture.
"But I wanted to give you a proper status..." Zhao Yu lanted.
"I don't care about status, as long as I can be with you, I'm willing to accept any condition," Liu Si Yu was almost in tears. She never imagined she would one day urge Zhao Yu to marry another woman and comfort him by saying, "You must marry her, and I'll be content with a lesser status."
"Once you establish the Zhao family, all your won can live there. You can even bring their families to live in your estate. With your protection, they should live well."
Although initially feeling coerced, Liu Si Yu urgently pleaded, "Zhao Yu, please, just agree."
Liu Si Yu even promised Zhao Yu to an extend of engagent. "As long as you marry Su Xiao Xiao, I'm yours, and you can take care of for the rest of my life."
