"Bang!"
Nangong Xuan slamd the table, reprimanding, "Wan'er, do not be disrespectful!"
Hearing her father's scolding, Nangong Wan bit her lip, stubbornly looking at the Oval-Faced Beauty, and said, "Aunt Yun, I'm sorry, but I cannot accept a future husband who is an ordinary person unable to cultivate. I must annul the engagent today."
Upon hearing this, Song Fan lowered his head in frustration, feeling even more bitter inside.
Once upon a ti, he was a genius admired by all, sensing his vital qi and blood at the age of three, and reaching the Skin Refining Stage by four. His early enlightennt was unmatched, even among the direct descendants of the Song family.
But fate is unpredictable, and at the age of five, he suddenly contracted a strange illness.
His vital qi and blood would mysteriously deplete.
This strange illness weakened his body over the years, and not only did he fall from the Skin Refining Stage to a state worse than an ordinary sickly person, but he also lost the ability to sense his vital qi and blood. No matter how many precious herbs he consud, he could never begin his martial path.
anwhile, his fiancée, Nangong Wan, had beco a prodigy in the Beta Battalion, with hopes of refining her Bronze Bones and entering the Alpha Battalion. He understood why she wouldn't want to marry soone like him, a failure, but the bitterness in his heart was unavoidable.
A young boy cannot hide his feelings, and seeing Song Fan like this, the Oval-Faced Beauty's eyes filled with a trace of sorrow.
She sighed softly, looking at Nangong Wan, and said earnestly, "Wan'er, I understand your thoughts, but marriage is not a matter to be taken lightly. Fan'er has been gradually recovering recently, and his body is not as weak as before, perhaps a sign of recovery. You have been close since childhood, with deep feelings. It's a pity to give up so easily. Why not wait for three years? If Fan'er still shows no hope of cultivation, then we can discuss annulling the engagent."
At this mont, Nangong Xuan also put on a stern face and said, "Wan'er, I have already risked my reputation today by coming here to do sothing so dishonorable. I have no face to et my sworn brother in the afterlife. If you don't agree to this request, we will sever our father-daughter relationship!"
Upon hearing this, Nangong Wan's eyes instantly reddened, her lips tightly pressed together, looking extrely aggrieved.
Clearly unwilling to agree.
But faced with her father's threat to sever their relationship, she dared not refuse, her heart in turmoil.
What if Song Fan recovers in three years?
He's already too old, having missed the best ti for cultivation. He might not even reach the Bone Refining Stage.
And as for herself?
She has already entered the Beta Battalion and might even refine her Bronze Bones. She and Song Fan are no longer on the sa level. After reaching adulthood, he would only beco a low-level mber of the Song family, while she, with her outstanding talent, would be a key talent nurtured by the Divine General's Manor, with limitless prospects.
Song Fan, her childhood sweetheart, should just remain a friend...
"Uncle!"
Song Fan took a deep breath, stood up, and cupped his hands towards Nangong Xuan, saying, "Since Wan'er doesn't want to, I won't force it. Let's call off the engagent!"
Nangong Xuan looked troubled, "Nephew, you..."
The Oval-Faced Beauty, who had been observing Nangong Wan, understood that the girl was determined to annul the engagent. She didn't want to force her in such matters, nor could she. She sighed softly, "Brother, let them be."
Nangong Wan was secretly delighted.
She quickly took out the marriage contract she had prepared and returned it to Song Fan, as if afraid he might change his mind.
Seeing this, Song Fan felt even more bitter inside.
When you're just trying to make great content at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.
"Miss Nangong, as an elder, let give you so advice: the wheel of fortune turns, and one should not look down on a poor youth..."
At this mont, a gentle voice ca from outside the hall.
Song Fan's whole body trembled.
He looked up to see a tall, handso young man in a white embroidered robe walking in slowly.
