Yes, what does it have to do with the other party? The marriage is a matter between her and Yang Yichen. Even parents have no right to arbitrarily change their children's marriage, let alone Yang Bingshan, who is not even recognized as a father.
The calmer the girl became, the angrier Yang Bingshan grew, like a punch hitting cotton, leaving him feeling stifled with no outlet for his frustration.
"You, you, you, how can you be so thick-skinned? If you agree to break off the engagement now, I will give you a substantial compensation, and it won't affect your reputation too much. Otherwise, if this escalates..."
The threat in Yang Bingshan's words was very obvious, but Liu Qingxi didn't take it to heart; he was just a meddlesome fool.
"It seems that Master Yang has no authority here! Go find Yang Yichen. If he wants to separate from me, I won't say a word and will immediately annul the engagement. If not, I'm afraid I cannot meet your demands."
"Seeing that your business is doing so well, I thought you were reasonable. I didn't expect you to be utterly unreasonable." Although Yang Bingshan looked down on Liu Qingxi for showing her face, he had to admit that this Young Lady was doing better than him.
Liu Qingxi shifted her stance, exuding a relaxed aura. She paid no mind to Yang Bingshan's hurtful words and gracefully walked behind the desk before slowly sitting down.
Her casual posture contrasted sharply with Yang Bingshan's standing position, resembling a servant reporting to a master. Yang Bingshan felt stifled as he couldn't get his breath out; he felt frustrated by her disrespect.
When had he ever been looked down upon like this? Except for the days when the Yang Family was in decline, since Yang Yichen became a Juren in high school, who dared to treat him with anything less than respect?
Perhaps this sense of superiority made him feel that his status was unshakeable and that he had the right to decide on important matters in Yang Yichen's life.
However, he was wrong. Liu Qingxi came from a modern soul, was highly educated, and had years of work experience; how could she be intimidated by such a scene?
"Master Yang, all of this is just your wishful thinking; Yang Yichen wouldn't think like this."
"Hmph! If you understood things better, you should take the initiative to step back. Or if I'm in a good mood, I might let Yichan carry you into the door." Yang Bingshan held himself in high regard and truly believed he had the authority.
Little did he know that in Yang Yichen's eyes, as long as things appeared acceptable on the surface, it was enough.
However,
Liu Qingyan, who had not spoken throughout this exchange, was already boiling with anger. Carrying his sister into the door? This statement from Yang Bingshan deeply provoked his fury. How could someone so perfect and respected as his sister be humiliated like this?
Especially after repeated extreme remarks from the other party; he had endured enough and finally erupted: "On what grounds do you insult my sister? What right do you have?"
"Hey, who are you? A kid should go away; you have no right to talk to me," Liu Qingxi said, clearly irritated. A child just over ten years old actually dared to speak so boldly.
Yang Bingshan didn't care about himself; after all, he couldn't change the fact that she and Yang Yichen were a pair now and in the future. For someone like him, ignoring was the best retaliation.
However, she could not tolerate others disrespecting Liu Qingyan. She was fiercely protective of her own, and she could go to great lengths for this.
"Someone, Liu Yi, take Master Yang outside."
With a wave of her hand, she acted decisively, not giving Yang Bingshan any time to react.
Upon receiving Liu Qingxi's order, Liu Yi, who was always on high alert, quickly moved into the study. With his strong physique, he dragged Yang Bingshan, whom he considered a weakling, to the front door.
"Get lost; our family does not welcome people like you who insult young ladies. This is intolerable," Liu Yi coldly glared at Yang Bingshan, who was half-kneeling on the ground, almost ready to kick him again.
Having spent so much time with Liu Qingxi, he had long regarded this strong, kind, lovable girl as family and even as his junior.
Being humiliated in his own home like this was unacceptable. Even if Liu Qingxi hadn't instructed him to do so, he would have followed Yang Bingshan out to teach him a lesson.
Yang Bingshan stumbled to his feet. He never expected that within such a short time, he would be thrown out twice—once by Yang Yichen and once by Liu Qingxi.
Looking at the imposing gates of the Liu Family, a calculating glint flashed in his eyes: "Liu Qingxi, don't blame me for being ruthless." A thought slowly formed in his mind.
Hobbling onto the carriage and watching Ten Li Pu grow distant while the Liu Family Courtyard became a mere dot in the background, Yang Bingshan felt a surge of determination.
Meanwhile, Liu Qingxi had no idea that this person would devise another plan after failing with the first one. She couldn't imagine that Yang Yichen had such a father.
At this moment in the study, Liu Qingyan was seething with anger: "Sister, how dare he do that?"
In her heart, her sister was the most beautiful and strongest girl who should not be bullied by anyone.
"It's nothing; he's just a person. There's no need to pay him any mind. What happens between me and Yang Yichen is none of his business," Liu Qingxi gently comforted Liu Qingyan by stroking her head.
After all, she was still a child and couldn't maintain her composure. As for herself? In this life and the last, along with her experiences in different worlds dealing with various people, she had become immune to someone like Yang Bingshan.
In the business world, what kind of bizarre people have you not encountered? What unpleasant words have you not heard?
However, Liu Qingyan is different. Even after experiencing hardships and the disdain and abuse from others, her life experience remains shallow. Maintaining composure is not something that can be done casually.
"Alright, hurry up and go rest. You've worked hard studying at school, so when you're home, you should relax. You don't need to worry about these troublesome matters." Education is the priority. Liu Qingxi, like all parents wishing for their children to succeed, hopes that Liu Qingyan can focus on her studies.
As for the remaining Yang Bingshan? Yang Yichen can make him lose everything once; she can make him lose everything again.
Yang Bingshan, leaving in a dejected manner, looks at the current prosperity of Ten Li Pu with envy and jealousy. The houses stand like piles of white silver before him, yet he feels unqualified to possess any of it.
Linyi County
Yang Yichen sits at the head of the table, listening to reports on this year's wheat harvest yield.
"My lord, this year the average wheat yield across the county is four hundred twenty jin, an increase of ten percent compared to last year. Several villages even reached five hundred jin in harvest." A young clerk reports earnestly while holding his statistics.
The smile on his face cannot be concealed; after all, the results over the past two years are evident. Compared to two years ago when a yield of three hundred jin per mu was considered excellent, who would have thought it would be this much?
A full thirty percent increase in yield? Don’t underestimate this thirty percent; after taxes are paid, what remains could solve major problems and even save a family from hunger and poverty.
In contrast to the excitement and enthusiasm of those below, Yang Yichen remains calm and composed.
