Zhuo Cunrui was so furious he felt as though he might explode on the spot. Qiao Jingyi showing up bright and early to annul the engagement was nothing less than a slap to the face. If word of this got out, wouldn't the Zhuo Family become the laughingstock of the entire Provincial Capital?
Instantly, Zhuo Cunrui sneered, "Qiao Jingyi, you were the one who pushed so hard to forge this engagement in the first place. Now you actually have the nerve to come to my Zhuo Family and demand an annulment? What is this? Do you take the Zhuo Family for pushovers?"
A flash of awkwardness crossed Qiao Jingyi's heart. To be completely honest, he bore a heavy responsibility for this mess. If he hadn't ignored Qiao Fenghua's fierce objections back then and stubbornly insisted on tying her to the Zhuo Family, how could things have ever reached this troublesome pass?
