Chapter 993: Chapter 990: I Just Don’t Want To
"Who is it?" Qian Jinhua’s voice was sowhat impatient.
They said to leave the food outside the door, why suddenly calling?
"Miss, the master asks you to co down to the dining room."
The servant outside the door said.
"I’m not going!" Qian Jinhua said stubbornly: "Tell my father, I’m not in a good mood right now and don’t want to go out."
"Miss, please don’t make it difficult for , this is a direct order from the master!" The servant’s tone was full of plea.
"Alright then!"
Out of sympathy for the servant, a rather helpless Qian Jinhua opened the door and left her long-missed bedroom.
As she walked down the wooden stairs, she saw that there were more people seated in the dining room than usual.
The villa area of the Qian family is very large, and almost every elder or manager has their own villa.
In the villa where Qian Jinhua resided, it was usually just her and her ntor.
Her father was quite busy and rarely ho.
But now, her father was not only dining in the dining room, but there were several highly respected elders of the Qian family beside him.
More unexpectedly, there were two outsiders of the Qian family among the elders.
One person had a waxy complexion, full of wrinkles, displaying an unmistakable elderly deanor.
The other was much younger, handso-faced, wearing a confident smile, while staring straight at Qian Jinhua.
Seated opposite the young man, Qian Jinhua finally recognized that this leering fellow was Zhao Wuji.
Zhao Wuji, the direct descendent of the Zhao family, hailed as the next to succeed, is also a prominent figure in the Beijing circle, part of the city’s Four Young Masters.
Qian Jinhua hasn’t t Zhao Wuji many tis, usually just glimpsing him from afar at family-organized banquets.
Normally, they belonged to different circles and wouldn’t interfere with each other, but why would Zhao Wuji co to the Qian family and use that annoying look on her?
Furrowing her brows, a bad thought suddenly crossed Qian Jinhua’s mind.
"Cough, cough."
Once everyone was present, the patriarch of the Qian family, Qian Haiyu, spoke from the head seat: "My daughter is quite slow in action, apologies for the delays, I hope Brother Heisha and Nephew Wuji understand."
"Uncle, I don’t mind, girls need ample makeup and sleep ti."
Zhao Wuji smirked elegantly, his smile alluring to countless young ladies.
The elder next to him rely nodded coldly.
"Then let’s begin dining."
With that, Qian Haiyu started eating first, others followed suit in succession.
Silence settled over the dining table, Zhao Wuji’s gaze occasionally sneakily darted toward Qian Jinhua.
Qian Jinhua grew certain of the answer in her heart, becoming more furious.
Father, how dare you do this to ?
Once nearly done eating, the main event began.
With unchanged expression, Qian Haiyu asked: "Jinhua, what do you think of Wuji?"
"Boring."
Qian Jinhua murmured softly, earning a warning glance from Qian Haiyu.
She had to answer audibly: "Young Master Zhao is renowned both in arts and literature in Beijing, I admire him greatly."
Admittedly, Qian Jinhua’s acting was truly poor.
While professing admiration, her expression was devoid, as if reciting a textbook.
Zhao Wuji felt a bit awkward, while the elder beside him frowned.
Accustod to his daughter’s style, Qian Haiyu did not delve deeply but continued asking: "And how do you view the Zhao family?"
"A very large family, full of experts, with many admirable figures like Master Heisha here, who was once a legendary hero."
Qian Jinhua responded earnestly, not forgetting to flatter the elder beside Zhao Wuji.
After listening, the elder’s face improved significantly, his brows no longer furrowed.
Zhao Wuji’s expression was full of pride, thinking that this is beneficial to both families, appears he can win the beauty after all!
Qian Haiyu thought so too, nodding with a smiling face: "Then are you willing to marry into the Zhao family, and forge a happy union with Wuji?"
The purpose finally spoken. Qian Jinhua felt a wave of sorrow.
Even though she anticipated her father’s intention, hearing him say this still inevitably hurt.
"I’ve been your daughter all these years, excelled beyond peers in everything I’ve done, why are you still in such a rush to marry
off?"
Feeling extrely desolate, Qian Jinhua didn’t know what to say.
Despite her rebellious and assertive nature, she turned into a sheep before her father.
To exaggeratedly speak, from childhood to adulthood, Qian Jinhua had never defied her father’s orders.
Seeing Qian Jinhua hesitate, Zhao Wuji showed displeasure, thinking: I am the next patriarch of the Zhao family, a figure above many, and yet, you still hesitate?
Damnable woman, when the ti cos I will harshly toy with you, let’s see what the alleged Martial Arts Fanatic truly tastes like!
Everyone understood that a girl suddenly hearing she must marry would certainly be shocked and hesitant.
That’s a normal reaction, so no one paid much attention, allowing Qian Jinhua to slowly process it.
What they did not know was Qian Jinhua had no intention to accept this marriage.
A scene flashed through her mind.
It was the mont Qin Hao surrounded by many, a critical situation.
At that ti, Qin Hao spoke a very arrogant line.
Even now, Qian Jinhua deeply rembered that sentence.
——Don’t waste my ti, co at
together!
Recalling it now, how domineering, how blood-stirring was that line!
Qian Jinhua even mischievously considered, what if she said that sentence herself?
"Jinhua!"
Ti ticked by a minute, Qian Haiyu said with dissatisfaction.
The pressure suddenly mounted, Qian Jinhua’s face paled sowhat.
Her father used pressure on her just for this matter?
She felt aggrieved, wanted to cry, and a bit rebellious.
"I’ve practiced martial arts for years, aiming to escape the bonds of family marriage, and live my life freely!"
"How could I forfeit my goal before my father arrives?"
"Even that shaless lecherous Qin Hao can remain unyielding, so why can’t I?"
Thinking thus, a surge of unprecedented courage arose within Qian Jinhua.
She resolutely stated: "Father, I am unwilling!"
On these words, Zhao Wuji’s smile froze, Zhao Heisha’s face was extrely irate.
The elders of the Qian family showed signs of surprise.
Even Qian Feishun and Qian Haiyu’s eyes slightly widened.
The apprentice (daughter) actually refused?
In the Qian family’s perception, Qian Jinhua was the obedient daughter before Qian Haiyu.
Now, for the first ti in her life, the obedient daughter told her father no.
How astonishing was that?
"Daughter, are you perhaps, not fully awake, slightly confused?"
Despite his surprise, after realizing it, Qian Haiyu spoke with a heavy expression.
Those who know him understand when the patriarch wears such a face, a storm and tempest are bound to occur.
Qian Jinhua feared greatly, but for her happiness, to live none less than Qin Hao, she bravely lifted her head, standing firm, "I! Just! Un! Willing!"
