Chapter 6: Canceling the Engagement (2)
"Yes? What'sthat?" Ye Ling asked.
Duan Tianrao was silent for a while and said, “In addition to visiting Tang Tang, I came here today for another reason. That's because... I think the marriage between Tang Tang and I should be canceled.”
The smile on Ye Ling's face disappeared as soon as Duan Tianrao finished his sentence.
"Tianrao, what do you mean by that?"
Duan Tianrao took a breath and decided to admit everything.
“I grew up with Tang Tang so, of course, we were close to each other. However, I can only see her as my sister and not as a couple. I had told my father about it, and he also agreed that we should not force such a marriage. Therefore, I am here today to cancel the engagement, ” Duan Tianrao said.
"WHAT!" Ye Ling slammed her fist hard on the table. He looked at Duan Tianrao furiously.
“You want to cancel the engagement? Do you know what you're talking about! ”
Ye Ling was furious. The engagement between Duan Tianrao and Ye Qingtang was made when they were young, and everyone in Lin City knew about it. Now, Duan Tianrao wanted to cancel the engagement. If the news were to spread, his daughter would be considered a joke in the eyes of others!
Duan Tianrao had already made up his mind.
He looked at the rampaging Ye Ling and continued. “Uncle Ye, a few days ago, my father had confirmed that I would be the heir of the Duan family clan. I will be the lord of the clan, and my wife will be the mistress of the Duan.” family
Duan Tianrao looked towards Ye Qingtang and his veil. His gaze showed a sense of unwillingness.
Duan Tianrao sounded very pleasant and logical, but every word he said to Ye Ling pierced his heart like a sword.
“Duan Tianrao, do you know what you just said! Your engagement to Tang Tang Tang has been confirmed a long time ago. Now you want to cancel?” Ye Ling reproached.
Duan Tianrao frowned and raised his eyes slightly.
“Uncle Ye, I do have an engagement with Ye Qingtang. However, what kind of spirit root did he have back then, and what kind was it now? Uncle Ye, you really want me to marry a woman who has no spirit root and has no appearance?”
Ye Ling was trembling with anger. He never expected that Duan Tianrao was this kind of person.
Duan Tianrao did not change his mind at all even after witnessing Ye Ling's fury. He turned around and looked towards Ye Qingtang, who had remained silent all this time.
“Tang Tang, I thought I treated you fairly in the past. Now, you have to think from my point of view. Although someone else in town said you were so ugly, I did not ask to cancel the engagement back then. However, now that your spirit root is broken, do you still want to marry me by force? How should I explain this to the Duan family?
"I can tolerate it if my wife is ugly, but I can't bring a useless mistress to the Duan family."
Every word that came out of Duan Tianrao was painful. From start to finish, he only appreciated Ye Qingtang's spirit root.
When Ye Qingtang had the highest level spirit root, he could tolerate its ugliness. However, now that his spirit root had been destroyed, why would he still have to accept it?
Ye Ling stood up furiously and roared. “Duan Tianrao! Be quiet! I'm blind to allow an engagement between you and Tang Tang! I never knew that you were such a disgusting person!”
