However, with the strength of the Yan Family, Old Master Qin simply did not dare to offend them. Provoking a Martial Arts Family was definitely not a wise choice. Therefore, for many years, whenever the Yan Family brought up the marriage between Qin Xiaoya and Yan Kuai Fei, Old Master Qin would resort to dragging things out.
After dragging it on for so many years, last week, Old Master Qin suffered a stroke and fell into a coma. The Yan Family seized the opportunity and sent someone to visit Old Master Qin yesterday while also bringing up the marriage proposal between Yan Kuai Fei and Qin Xiaoya once again. With Old Master Qin incapacitated, the Qin family was bound to face turmoil; they might even be swallowed by other families. They needed to find a powerful ally. Under the pressure and temptation from the Yan Family, even Qin Xiaoya's parents had no choice but to compromise and agree to the Yan Family's request for a quick engagement.
This was not entirely their fault. The matter between Qin Xiaoya and Yan Kuai Fei could not be resolved by dragging it out any longer. The elder of the Yan Family had long declared that he had already recognized Qin Xiaoya as his granddaughter-in-law.
Qin Xiaoya was naturally aware of all this, but how could she possibly look favorably upon that wastrel Yan Kuai Fei? She was so outstanding; how could she allow herself to marry someone who was utterly useless?
She turned to her parents. "You agreed?"
"Qin Xiaoya, we had no choice. The Yan Family has clearly lost their patience. They came yesterday with their final ultimatum, and we had to agree," her parents replied helplessly.
"Sigh, Qin Xiaoya, if you want to blame someone, blame your grandfather. He shouldn't have impulsively arranged this engagement for you back then," Qin Baonan lamented.
Qin Xiaoya's face turned pale, but she couldn't say anything in response. She knew just as well as anyone that her engagement with Yan Kuai Fei could not be postponed any longer. At her age, she was nearing marriageable status; if this dragged on any further, she would become an old unmarried woman.
The engagement between her and Yan Kuai Fei had been set by both families' elders, and it required both sides to mutually annul it. However, it was clear that the elder of the Yan Family would never agree to annul it; he could hardly wait for Qin Xiaoya to marry into the Yan Family.
Suddenly, a figure flashed through Qin Xiaoya's mind. If only Yan Kuai Fei could possess half of his abilities, I would willingly marry him. Unfortunately, Yan Kuai Fei was just a good-for-nothing wastrel.
Feeling chaotic inside, Qin Xiaoya ultimately chose to compromise. She did not want to put her grandfather in a difficult position or create animosity with the Yan Family.
Being born into a wealthy family, especially as a woman, meant that some things were unavoidable.
"Grandfather, I don't blame you. I will get engaged to Yan Kuai Fei," Qin Xiaoya said with a smile that was filled with bitterness and resignation.
Seeing this, Qin Liao was overjoyed. As long as Qin Xiaoya got married, she posed no threat to him anymore. After all, a married daughter is like spilled water; once she married out of the family, she would only count as half of the Qin Family and would have no right to control the various resources of the Qin family.
Qin Xiaoya understood her cousin's thoughts all too well but felt powerless; after all, she was just a girl. However, her grandfather's recovery was more important than anything else. That Jiang Chen was indeed impressive; she should thank him!
Thinking of this, Qin Xiaoya said to Qin Baonan, "Grandfather, now that you're better, let's arrange for your discharge from the hospital so you can recuperate at home. I will organize a banquet to thank that esteemed person!"
"Yes, we must thank that esteemed person. Qin Xiaoya, hurry along!" Qin Baonan readily agreed. Although the elixir had cost ten billion yuan, money was unimportant to him; life itself was what mattered most. Without that esteemed person’s help, even spending hundreds of billions or trillions would not buy back his life.
