Chapter 355: 202 Unpleasant Conversation (Third Update)_2

She was now filled with such regret that it was killing her. How could she have agreed to this marriage arrangement? She had almost pushed her precious daughter into an abyss!

If it weren’t for the apocalypse; if she hadn’t seen the Qiu Family’s true colors and actually let Fang Yuxin marry into the Qiu Family... the outcome... Just thinking about it made Qu Qianhe shiver! Whether it was her son or daughter, they were flesh of her flesh, her treasures, and if anyone dared to harm them in the slightest, she’d fight them to the death!

Therefore, when she looked at Zhou Fanghua now, her gaze was like that of staring down an irreconcilable foe!

Zhou Fanghua felt a chill in her heart under that gaze, although she always thought she had done nothing wrong. With the military power the Qiu Family held and their status in the Safe Zone, she felt she had the right to look down on others. So even if her demeanor in front of the Fang Family was a bit arrogant, she didn’t think it was a problem.

The Fang Family was no longer what it once was! If not for valuing Fang Yuxin’s talents, she would not have condescended to come here and be subjected to indignity, let alone agree to let Fang Yuxin marry into their Qiu Family!

But under the hateful gaze of Qu Qianhe, she suddenly felt a trace of guilt, as if she had indeed made a mistake.

Zhou Fanghua cursed herself for her lack of resolve, then lifted her eyes to defiantly meet Qu Qianhe’s gaze, and declared, "That’s right! This is indeed Qiu Hongsheng’s and my intention. Since you’re in a hurry, let’s get straight to the point. The children have long been of age to discuss marriage, so why not prepare this afternoon and hold the wedding tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?" Qu Qianhe shook with anger, suppressing her fury so she wouldn’t slap Zhou Fanghua across the face, and merely asked, "And how do you intend to manage this wedding? Do you think there’s enough time to prepare in just half a day?"

Zhou Fanghua noticed Qu Qianhe seemed quite irate and, fearing that she might do something impulsively, discreetly took a step back while keeping a close eye on Qu Qianhe’s reactions. Seeing that Qu Qianhe seemed to be forcibly holding back her anger, Zhou Fanghua breathed a sigh of relief, and a disdainful sneer crept into her heart.

She was right, the Fang Family had significantly declined! Otherwise, how could Qu Qianhe possibly swallow her words in silence? But that was exactly what she had done! What did this indicate? It clearly showed that Qu Qianhe didn’t dare to offend her!

Zhou Fanghua was secretly pleased with herself, but failed to notice that Fang Yuxin’s gaze towards her had turned colder and colder. Meanwhile, the Fang Family’s dining room had grown so quiet you could hear a pin drop, with everyone’s complexion ashen and their eyes shooting icy glares in Zhou Fanghua’s direction!

Although they were inside the house and couldn’t hear the conversation outside due to the distance, their spiritual power had grown with time and could extend outside, making it easy for them to "hear" the exchange.

If Fang Jintang hadn’t stopped him, Fang Yuyang would have already burst out in anger!

The Qiu Family was really going too far!

Fang Jintang’s expression was also very grim, and he too wanted to give Zhou Fanghua a good lesson, but since Zhou Fanghua had come alone, their whole family confronting her would seem like bullying.

Fang Yuyang glared at Fang Jintang irritably, his least favorite thing about Fang Jintang was this very trait, sometimes he was so incorruptibly naive! Zhou Fanghua had come to their house to bully them, what was there to worry about? Even if it was bullying by the majority, so what? Could they really let her continue to be arrogant like this, to think that their family was afraid of the Qiu Family?

Chen Qiao and others were sitting by the dining table; they too had "heard" the conversation outside, and their appetites were ruined, wishing nothing more than to teach Zhou Fanghua a lesson and show her who was boss!

At this moment, Zhou Fanghua spoke up, "During this extraordinary time, the wedding can only be a simple affair. Rest assured though, aside from the wedding dress and rings that can’t be prepared, there will certainly be many guests. We will make the wedding as lively as possible, ensuring Xin Xin is married off to the Qiu Family with pomp and splendor!"

She was bubbling with excitement as she spoke, growing more proud with each word. Then she glanced casually at Qu Qianhe and Fang Yuxin beside her, and quickly asked, "Since you have no objections, then this matter is settled. I’ll have people prepare as soon as I return!"

Qu Qianhe’s expression cooled completely, and it was time for her to speak up or it would be too late! With a scornful laugh, she looked straight at Zhou Fanghua with eyes sharp as swords, "Who said we agreed? I certainly did not agree to this marriage! Zhou Fanghua, don’t flatter yourself and become the laughingstock here."

Zhou Fanghua became anxious, "What do you mean by that? Yiming and Xin Xin’s marriage was settled long ago; it’s just being held earlier than planned, what’s the big deal?"

"Of course, it’s a big deal!" Qu Qianhe looked at her coldly and then began to mock, "Xin Xin has already proposed to your beloved Qiu Yiming to cancel the engagement, didn’t he tell you? Xin Xin even returned the engagement ring to him, and he accepted it."

"What?" Zhou Fanghua was completely infuriated, glaring at Qu Qianhe and Fang Yuxin as if she wanted to devour them, "How dare you do this? If you wanted to cancel the engagement... why didn’t you speak to me and Hongsheng directly?"

Under the immense shock, Zhou Fanghua actually began to think clearly. Her eyes scrutinizing Qu Qianhe and Fang Yuxin, she desperately wanted to see through their ploy!

Human emotions are so complex; she used to look down on Fang Yuxin, thinking she wasn’t good enough for Qiu Yiming, not wishing for her son to marry her. But hearing Fang Yuxin had initiated the break-off, she reacted with dissatisfaction, why should Fang Yuxin look down on her son?
