Chapter 341 - 341 341 Retreating from Marriage

341: Chapter 341: Retreating from Marriage 341: Chapter 341: Retreating from Marriage “Family Head, are you planning to help me by taking down the Wu family first?” Zhong Yuanliang blinked his eyes, sensing a hint of conspiracy!

“Nonsense, that was set by my senior brother, how dare I interfere and displease him?

What I mean is, if you can’t handle it, I’ll cripple you first to save my Zhong family from embarrassment!”

Zhong Wanshan said irritably!

Zhong Yuanliang’s face suddenly turned bitter, this approach was very much like the old Family Head.

After finishing his words, Zhong Wanshan headed straight for the door, proceeding directly to the Wu family.

In Zhongzhou, the Zhong family was wealthy and held significant prestige in the martial arts world, while the Wu family was merely a martial arts household, inferior to the Zhongs in both martial prowess and financial resources.

In previous years, the old Family Head had also seen the great talent of the Wu family girl and thus had the idea to set up a future marriage for the two, but Yuan Liang had always been overshadowed by the Wu girl.

When they were young, they met frequently, and although Yuan Liang was very talented, he was lazy!

Thus, in their childhood, he was often outperformed by Wu Yingying.

Later, Wu Yingying went to the capital to study, and they parted ways.

Afterward, Wu Yingying went abroad for further studies and completely lost contact.

By the time they had both grown up, their childhood appearances had changed so much that even walking on the street, they wouldn’t recognize each other.

However, the marriage arrangement between the Zhong and Wu families was well known to many and often brought up in front of Wu Yingying.

After living in the capital and abroad, coupled with her innate talent in martial arts, upon learning that Yuan Liang was still only at the level of a Martial Arts Grandmaster, Wu Yingying became even more disdainful of him.

The so-called open culture she adopted in the United States also made Wu Yingying quite different from when she was young!

This was also the reason why Wu Yingying always mentioned in front of others that Yuan Liang was useless.

As for Wu Yingying, in fact, the Wu family knew exactly what she was like.

At the beginning of her return to the country, they cautioned her a bit, but seeing that the Zhong family had no objections, the Wu family stopped commenting.

It wasn’t that the Zhong family had no objections, but rather that these issues were not communicated to Zhong Wanshan.

Over the years, Zhong Wanshan had been engrossed in martial arts, seldom leaving home, and Zhong Kui’an, even more fearful of upsetting Zhong Wanshan, deliberately kept the matter quiet, while the person involved, Yuan Liang, simply didn’t care, as he had never entertained the idea of marriage in his mind.

This was the first time in several years that the Zhong family had come to the doorstep, and it was Zhong Wanshan who came, not Zhong Kui’an—the founder of the Zhong family who had greatly expanded the family’s influence.

Everyone was unaware why, after one trip outside, Zhong Wanshan’s martial arts prowess had advanced by leaps and bounds, propelling the modest Zhong family beyond Zhongzhou city’s elite clans!

Both in past and present lives, the people of Holy Medicine Sect were not known to be of good temper, merely restrained by their sect rules against using power to bully others.

In his youth, Zhong Wanshan had a significant reputation in the martial arts community, a reputation naturally built through combat.

His personality was like a dynamite, igniting at the slightest touch!

In recent years, though he had withdrawn from active involvement to cultivate his character, his presence was still enough to put the entire Wu family on high alert.

“So it’s the venerable former Family Head Zhong who graces us with his presence,” said a middle-aged man, bowing respectfully to Zhong Wanshan.

“Summon Wu Tianfeng out here,” Zhong Wanshan said straightforwardly!

“Family Head Zhong will arrive shortly; the Family Head is on his way,” the middle-aged man said, unconcerned about Zhong Wanshan’s rudeness, and instead replied with a respectful smile.

A moment later, an elderly man appeared, with sword-like eyebrows and tiger-like eyes, a high nose bridge, who was Wu Tianfeng, the contemporary Family Head of the Wu family.

“Master Gong, I apologize for not greeting you from afar.

Please forgive me,” Wu Tianfeng said politely as he looked at Zhong Wanshan!

“Wu Tianfeng, you don’t have to feed me those empty words.

You should be aware of the situation, right?” Zhong Wanshan said coldly to Wu Tianfeng!

“Kids will quarrel; why get so heated about it,” Wu Tianfeng exclaimed in surprise!.

Over the years, the Zhong family had never gotten so angry about Wu Yingying’s actions; Wu Tianfeng did not understand why Zhong Wanshan had come personally this time.

As for Yuan Tianzhong, they couldn’t control him.

After all, he was a member of the Yuan family from the capital.

Although his own daughter had not regarded male-female interactions cautiously, as far as he was aware, she had done nothing to wrong the Zhong family.

How would he know?

The only things he was aware of were what the Wu family wanted him to know.

If he knew Wu Yingying was changing men every week, even rumored to be a courtesan, probably Zhong Wanshan wouldn’t need to come; he would have broken her legs long ago.

That was the situation with some large families where the second generation acted wildly without self-awareness.

Actually, some deeds of these second-generation members outside were truly unknown to their families.

After all, those who could establish a family in chaotic times generally had good nature and character; only to be ruined later by their second-generation.

“Heh, your granddaughter bringing a man to humiliate my grandson, and you call that kids quarreling?

What if I beat you up and call it a lesson?

If your Wu family does not wish to marry into my Zhong family, you could just say so directly, do you think my Zhong family is clinging to your Wu family?” Zhong Wanshan smirked coldly.

Wu Tianfeng forced a smile, but dared not speak.

The old master and Zhong Wanshan were close friends, and the two families considered each other family.

The marriage arrangement was made when the old master was alive, and he dared not oppose it.

Moreover, the Zhong family had always looked after the Wu family, and this time it was completely Wu Yingying’s own trouble.

“I won’t lie to you; this is all Yingying acting on her own.

The Wu family has absolutely no intention of disrespecting the Zhong family, nor any thought of breaking off the relationship,” Wu Tianfeng said, bowing respectfully to this uncle, sensing that Zhong Wanshan was truly angry.

“Hmph, acting on her own?

Wu Tianfeng, do you even know what your daughter is like outside?” Zhong Wanshan scoffed.

Upon hearing this, Wu Tianfeng was startled, seeing that there was an implied meaning in the old master Zhong’s words!

“I’d like to hear the details!”

“Changing a boyfriend every week, claiming that all the accomplished young men in Zhongzhou are her conquests, don’t forget, your Wu family and my Zhong family still have a marriage engagement, where does that leave my Zhong family’s dignity?”

“What?

Changing a boyfriend every week?” Wu Tianfeng said incredulously: “Old Master Zhong, my daughter indeed likes to make friends from all places, and she has quite a few male friends, but it’s definitely not as the rumors say, changing boyfriends every week!”

“Hmph, you’ll know the truth if you ask around.

Why bother saying these things to me?

I’m here today to tell you that the marriage arrangement between the Wu family and the Zhong family ends today!” Zhong Wanshan said with a cold face.

Just as Wu Tianfeng was about to speak, Zhong Wanshan spoke again:

“Your Wu family may disregard your reputation, but my Zhong family needs to maintain ours!

Today, my Zhong family is breaking off the engagement!”

Startled by his words, Wu Tianfeng hurriedly said, “Old Master Zhong, please calm down.

How can we break off the engagement before the matter is thoroughly investigated?”
