Chapter 725: 0715 I will prove

Old Master Fu looked at Su Ran, a hint of appreciation flashing through his eyes.

Calm and composed, with quite a bit of courage!

"What do you think the reason is for my disapproval?"

Old Master Fu’s shrewd eyes narrowed with intensity.

Su Ran calmly met his gaze, supporting her chin as she pondered for two seconds.

"In terms of appearance, I am confident that I’m second to none; regarding tactics, you just praised me for my deep thoughts and ruthless methods; in terms of courage, there’s admiration for me in your eyes, so..."

Old Master Fu was taken aback, not expecting this woman’s observational skills to be so acute.

Observing the reaction of the old master, Su Ran then curved her lips and said:

"Apart from my family background, I really can’t find any reason for your disapproval!"

"..."

"..."

Should they say she’s too confident?

But, maybe, it seems, her analysis does have some logic to it.

After a moment, Old Master Fu suddenly let out a low chuckle.

His face bore no anger at being exposed by Su Ran.

"You are somewhat smart, since you already know the answer, why ask unnecessary questions? Or perhaps you could ask yourself, are you worthy of Qi Yuan?"

Su Ran blinked lightly, saying:

"I have already asked myself that question many times, and of course I’m worthy. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be with him!"

"..."

"..."

"Pfft—"

Fu Qixiu couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter!

Well, you asked me to ask myself, I did, and I must be worthy!

What now?

Sister-in-law is mighty and domineering!!

Fu Qiyuan’s lips curved into an indulgent smile, and he affectionately stroked the girl’s hair.

Old Master Fu was so irritated that his eyes bulged, this cheeky little girl!

She’s infuriating him!

Su Ran blinked, smiling at Old Master Fu.

"You don’t need to be angry. Although I don’t know what you mean by ’worthy,’ aside from not being able to choose my birth, I don’t feel inferior to anyone else in every other aspect!

Compared to those who were born into prestigious families, everything I own now I have fought for myself; if I want to, I can be a prestigious family!!"

The evenly spoken sentence sent shockwaves through everyone in the main hall!

If I want to, I can be a prestigious family!

How much confidence does one need to utter such an arrogant sentence?

Yet, given what had happened to her, no one could doubt it!

Old Master Fu stared at Su Ran, his eyes shimmering faintly with light.

But the moment passed, and he suppressed it once again!

"Hmph! Fine words though these are, Qi Yuan is the head of the Fu family. Do you think with your current capabilities, you can shoulder the responsibility as the mistress of the Fu family?"

"As long as he, Fu Qiyuan, thinks I can shoulder it, even if I originally couldn’t, now I can!"

After all, love is ultimately a matter between the two of them. As long as Fu Qiyuan is willing to believe in her, is certain of her, and thinks she’s worthy, even if she’s truly not, she will be!

On the other hand, if he thinks she’s not worth it, what others think is irrelevant!

Su Ran said this, paused for a moment, and while smiling at the old master, spoke again slowly:

"Moreover, at today’s banquet, everyone knows that I, Su Ran, am Fu Qiyuan’s fiancée, his future wife. Even if you don’t acknowledge it, you will have to acknowledge it!!"

"..."

"..."

"You..." Old Master Fu was so angry he couldn’t speak.

The others were equally shocked, their eyes wide with astonishment!

This woman was so brazen and arrogant; they had never encountered someone like her before!

Should they say, indeed she is worthy of being the one chosen by the head of the Fu family?

Her dominating presence, so similar to his!

"Sharp-tongued, even if others know, so what? Your family and background, what can they bring to Qi Yuan?

"Not only do you not provide him with any impetus or stability in his career, but in some respects, you even restrict him! You bring nothing to him but hinder him, becoming his weakness and vulnerability!!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiyao felt a surge of defiant determination in her heart.

She was the young miss of the Chu family, with status and background. Her family could offer a lot to the Fu family.

She was more than capable on her own and could assist him in both career and family matters.

She wouldn’t be his vulnerability, nor his weakness; she would only be his strong support.

And the others, how could they compare to her?

Compared to her, what right did this woman have to step through the Fu family’s door?

But this woman was right about one thing, one can’t choose their birth.

That’s her inherent advantage and capital. Only those born low and of ordinary birth would advocate for self-sufficiency and strive by their own efforts.

Chu Xiyao didn’t have to strive for anything. She was born with everything others could only wish for, and had enough capital to crush and look down upon anyone.

Aside from momentarily beguiling Qi Yuan, what did this woman have?

And yet she still wants to enter the Fu family’s door without weighing her own worth!

Hah!

Foolish and naive!

"I will prove it."

At that moment, Su Ran’s cool voice rang out with undeniable firmness.

"I will prove that I’m not his weakness!"

The silent hall fell quiet.

And the next second, a low, resolute voice beside her slowly rose—

"I will prove that she’s not a liability!"

As Fu Qiyuan’s words fell, everyone was in shock.

"Pfft—"

Sitting next to Su Ran, Fu Qixiu couldn’t help but burst into laughter, "Brother, are you promoting a case of a wife leading the husband?"

Fu Qiyuan glanced at his brother and said seriously,

"Hmm, my sister-in-law’s words must be heeded!"

"..."

"..."

Upon hearing Fu Qiyuan’s words, everyone was somewhat slow to react.

Nani?

Was this the Fu Qiyuan they knew?

The Eldest Young Master Fu, the current Head of the Fu family?

My sister-in-law’s words must be heeded?

A man who wouldn’t even listen to his own grandfather, was actually going to listen to a woman?

Was he trying to show off his love?

Or was he trying to infuriate Old Master Fu?

It took several seconds before Su Ran seemed to recover, looking up at Fu Qiyuan before finally saying seriously—

"Good!"

"..."

"..."

Hehehe!

Good my foot!

Is that a word that can be used on Fu Qiyuan?

That’s Fu Qiyuan, Fu Qiyuan!

The world view of those present shattered!

Old Master Fu choked, feeling as if he were about to pass out while watching his grandson act without any sense of pride—Pah, pah, pah!

In the end, he pointed angrily at Fu Qiyuan and growled,

"Qi Yuan, do you realize what you’re doing?!"

Old Master Fu could never have imagined, his most satisfactory heir would come to this!

Fu Qiyuan’s eyes were deep, "I’m fully aware."

Old Master Fu closed his eyes, overwhelmed with disappointment and anger as he spoke again.

"Are you aware of what? Do you not realize that you are the Head of the Fu family? You are different from others, you are the future of the Fu family, bestowed with the hopes of many. Did you think I wanted you to just find a wife of equal social status? I was trying to find you a safeguard! Your choice of wife is linked to the entire family’s future!"
