3020 chapter 3042-
“what’s wrong? didn’t shixun tell you?” master bai was very surprised. ” you’re already married, but he still hid it from you? ” it seems that you’re not as honest as a normal couple.”
fang ziqian didn’t even bat an eyelid. ” you’re being too serious, ” she said in a calm tone. everyone has their own privacy. i don’t want to talk about things that will make shixun feel uncomfortable. anyway, i believe that shixun has good intentions in hiding anything from me. ”
master bai raised his eyebrows when he heard that.
his words were meant to sow discord, but he did not expect fang ziqian to see through it with one look. furthermore, she was not affected at all.
old master bai paused. ” you’re smarter than i thought. ” since shixun didn’t tell you, where did you find out?”
“the circle is only so big,” fang ziqian said,”someone must’ve heard about what happened to the bai family back then. however, i’ve only heard some scattered rumors. i can’t be sure if they’re true or not. i don’t know if you’re willing to dispel my doubts, old man?”
master bai frowned and pulled a long face. he slammed his walking stick on the ground again. ” fang ziqian, what makes you think i’d tell you about the bai family? don’t think that i’ll acknowledge you as my granddaughter-in-law just because you and shixun secretly got a marriage certificate!”
fang ziqian didn’t seem to notice the anger on his face. not only was she not scared, she even smiled.
” of course you’ll tell me. didn’t you call me over for this? ”
master bai was stunned and his brows furrowed even more. ” you’re thinking too much. i called you here because i want you to divorce shixun as soon as possible and stop harming him! ”
“there must be a reason for us to divorce, right? i promised shixun that i won’t break up with him again because of the pressure from the elders.” fang ziqian had a smile on her face the entire time, and her tone was neither fast nor slow, as if she knew that victory was already in her hands.
master bai was extremely displeased. he had thought that fang ziqian would be careful to please him in order to gain his recognition.
he didn’t expect that this little girl didn’t have the slightest intention of lowering her voice and spoke to him as an equal.
her graceful bearing and temperament were something that many real ladies from prestigious families could not compare to.
other than his family background, there was nothing to be picky about.
if not for bai shixun’s illness …
at the thought of his only grandson, master bai could not be bothered to argue with fang ziqian anymore. he sighed deeply.
“alright, i’ll save you myself. i’ve also seen you graduate from a famous school and enter the bai family with my own eyes. i know you’re a smart girl. i know that if you don’t know the truth, you won’t leave so easily, so i’ll tell you what happened back then. after you hear it, you’ll know why i’m so against you two being together.”
” what do you know about shixun’s parents? ” master bai asked after a pause.
fang ziqian pursed her lips and tried to be as reserved as possible.”it’s just … some things about shixun’s parents after they got married. i heard that there’s a great disparity between their family backgrounds. shixun’s mother was born into poverty, and you were against their marriage. “after the marriage, there were a lot of conflicts because of shixun’s mother’s family. it even led to the two of them preparing for a divorce … but, just before they got divorced, they got into a serious car accident …”
