Unable to contain the resentment in her heart, Chu Nanxi stood up and began to argue with Patriarch Chu. "Do you think I'm doing this for anyone but the Chu Family? Beigong Ying cares so much for that Yun Li—does Father really think there is still a place for our family in his heart? Is he really so willing to marry a daughter of the Chu Family? Even if I were lucky enough to marry him and become his Princess Consort, could I ever force him to be with me? As long as that Yun Li is alive, Beigong Ying’s heart will never belong to me. He won’t even spare me a glance. In that case, what difference does it make whether I marry him or not?"
Patriarch Chu snatched a teacup from the table and smashed it at Chu Nanxi’s feet. "Whether you are doing this for the Chu Family or for your own sake, you know the truth in your heart. Don't hide behind the name of the Chu Family."
"And what if I do use the Chu Family's name? Am I not a part of this family? Are you saying that only things beneficial to Yun Li are acceptable, while my attempts to win over Beigong Ying aren't for the sake of the entire family?"
