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.
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." ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
