Chapter 426 But I Really Can't Let Go

To Grandpa Qi's surprise, upon hearing this, his granddaughter immediately let go of his arm: "Do you think the relationship between our two families is more important than my happiness?"

Old Master Qi was taken aback: "Is that what you think of me?"

Qi Shufang said somewhat angrily, "I've begged you so much, and you still won't help me at all, all for the sake of your children and grandchildren. Am I wrong?"

Not wanting his granddaughter to harbor any more illusions, he turned cold: "Even if what you're saying is true, aren't you a beneficiary?"
But have you ever considered that even if I were to abandon all pride and beg your Grandpa Fu, would Fu Yancheng agree?
Even if he compromises and agrees, will you be happy?

Three questions in a row left Qi Shufang speechless for a long time.

She knew that her grandfather was right.

But the thought of that handsome and upright man becoming someone else's husband was unbearable for her; "Grandpa, but I really can't let go."

Looking at his distressed granddaughter, Grandpa Qi sighed inwardly: "Grandpa is going to visit an old friend in Haishi in a few days. You should come with me, just to relax."

Qi Shufang instinctively wanted to refuse.

But before she could speak, she heard her grandfather say, "Listen to your grandfather, maybe going out for a walk will change your state of mind."

That's what I said, but in my heart I was thinking: maybe if I meet other outstanding young people, my mindset will change.

His idea to bring his granddaughter over wasn't entirely impulsive. After all, his old friend had mentioned many years ago that he wanted their children to become in-laws, but none of their children's generation had taken a liking to each other. So why not continue the tradition with their grandchildren?

Besides, he was also afraid that if he left, his granddaughter might do something irreversible, since there was nothing wrong with continuing the family line.

So he didn't give his granddaughter another chance to refuse: "Alright, it's settled then. Pack your bags when you have some free time these next few days, and we'll set off when your Uncle Li comes back from his vacation."

Although Qi Shufang was unwilling, she still agreed. She wasn't stupid. The reason she could get whatever she wanted in the Qi family was because her grandfather valued her. If she really angered her grandfather, her good days would be over. So even though she didn't want to go, she could only agree for now: "I know, I know, Grandpa."

After saying that, he looked dejected and said, "Then I'll go back to my room first."

Grandpa Qi nodded to her and said, "Go ahead."

After leaving the old man's place, Qi Shufang didn't go straight back to her room. Instead, she went upstairs to her parents' room and knocked lightly on the door, asking, "Mom, are you asleep?"

Hearing her daughter's voice, Wang Xinyue slapped away the hands that were messing with her: "Daughter's here, calm down."

She sat up as she spoke: "Fangfang, is something the matter so late?"

Qi Shufang must have thought of something, but she couldn't care less about that now: "Mom, I need to talk to you. Can you come to my room for a moment?"

Wang Xinyue figured her daughter must have something important to say to come so late: "Okay, you go back first, I'll be there in a bit."

As she was about to get out of bed and put on her shoes, the person behind her pulled her back: "What am I going to do if you just leave like this?"

Wang Xinyue naturally noticed his unusual behavior: "I'll be right back, I'll take good care of you in a bit."

Qi Tongda felt wronged: "Then it's a deal. You'd better come back soon."

Wang Xinyue slapped away his hand that was around her waist: "Let go of me now."

As Qi Tongda agreed, he didn't forget to remind him, "Make sure to keep it short and come back soon."

Wang Xinyue glared at him: "I know."
