On the following day, the residence of old Mr. Hua welcomed an uninvited guest — Hua Cixiqian, who had caused quite a stir at last night's dinner. She came this time to announce her wedding date with Liu Rui. Upon hearing this, old Mr. Hua was immediately speechless with anger and couldn't possibly show Qianxi a pleasant face.

However, Qianxi couldn't care less; she had clearly stated to old Mr. Hua that it was not a request but an announcement. In other words, the marriage was happening!

Imagine hearing this, what else could old Mr. Hua do, except to leave the living room angrily and go to the courtyard to get some air. Seeing this, Xiao Yifei, who was about to step inside, forcibly retracted his steps, as he certainly didn't want to touch this unlucky situation.

Thinking about Hua Xiangrong's personality, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but sigh. How could there be such a huge difference among granddaughters? With thoughts swirling, Xiao Yifei turned to leave, only to unwittingly bump into the hurriedly arriving Liu Sisi.

Xiao Yifei gently helped steady Liu Sisi and asked after she regained her composure, "What's up, Sisi? Why are you in such a rush?"

"Brother Xiao Yifei, please help me persuade my brother," Liu Sisi said anxiously. Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei said hesitantly, "He did it because she agreed to it; we can't do much. It's not reasonable either way."

"Besides, although Qianxi's personality isn't great, she's pretty. Just consider that your brother got lucky," Xiao Yifei comforted. But Liu Sisi didn't buy it and flatly replied, "No way."

Seeing this, Xiao Yifei asked, puzzled, "Why?" On hearing the question, Liu Sisi seemed to have finally found someone who understood her and said, "Because I think she's not a good person."

This left Xiao Yifei speechless. How could Sisi know that Qianxi was not a good person without anything happening? It's quite absurd. Although Qianxi did go too far yesterday, you can't call someone bad for that. So Xiao Yifei promptly stopped Liu Sisi from continuing to interfere.

Already angry, Liu Sisi was even more incensed upon seeing Xiao Yifei stopping her, stomping her foot in anger. "I think that Qianxi is no good! Hmph!" Liu Sisi shouted angrily. Hearing this, Xiao Yifei quickly covered Liu Sisi's mouth, fearing that Qianxi inside might hear.

However, just as Xiao Yifei thought Qianxi hadn't heard Liu Sisi's words and prepared to release her, Qianxi suddenly appeared at the door, right in front of Xiao Yifei. Maybe it was Qianxi's powerful aura, which made Xiao Yifei momentarily forget to let go of Liu Sisi.

"Brother Xiao Yifei, let go," Liu Sisi swung Xiao Yifei's hand away and angrily turned around, wanting to have a proper talk with Xiao Yifei. But she saw a face she loathed, which naturally was Hua Cixiqian's.

Upon seeing Qianxi, Liu Sisi's face immediately clouded over, showing no affection for this future sister-in-law at all. And Xiao Yifei was unsure whether Qianxi had heard Liu Sisi anyways, so he awkwardly smiled.

Nevertheless, Qianxi's face remained unchanged. Only heaven knows if she heard it, but at this moment, Qianxi suddenly gave Liu Sisi a glance and then burst out laughing, saying to Liu Rui, "Don't look at me like that. After all, we're all family in the future."

Upon hearing this, Liu Sisi disdainfully sneered, "Who's family with you?" Speaking, Liu Sisi gave Qianxi a glare. Hearing those words, Qianxi wasn't angry but smiled warmly and replied, "Sister, don't say that. Your older sister here, well, I dislike when people go against me."

With that, Qianxi's gaze suddenly sharpened at Liu Sisi, and her face turned icy cold in an instant. No wonder she managed such a large and secure household; the mere display of her aura rendered Liu Sisi speechless, standing there in a stupor.

Beside them, Xiao Yifei, witnessing this scene, found himself at a loss. At that moment, Qianxi suddenly reached out towards Liu Sisi, although Xiao Yifei didn't know what to say earlier, now that Qianxi was about to touch Liu Sisi, he really couldn't just stand by.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Yifei was about to step in, but Qianxi spoke first. With a smile, she turned to the still-dazed Liu Sisi and said, "Sister, there's something dirty on your clothes. Let me get rid of it for you."

Intending to stop her, Xiao Yifei saw Qianxi gently brush dust off Liu Sisi's shoulder, feeling somewhat awkward watching the two of them.

With a gentle pat on Liu Sisi's shoulder, Qianxi turned to Xiao Yifei with a smile and then exited old Mr. Hua's residence without looking back. Once Qianxi left, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but shiver; this woman was truly terrifying.

While feeling apprehensive, Xiao Yifei glanced at Liu Sisi next to him, who was now staring blankly at Qianxi's departing figure, lost in her thoughts.

That girl must have been frightened quite a bit, Xiao Yifei thought. Consequently, he softly called Liu Sisi's name, and as expected, Liu Sisi seemed utterly unaware of Xiao Yifei's words, leaving him no choice but to call several more times until Liu Sisi finally regained her senses.

In that moment of regaining her senses, Liu Sisi suddenly went limp and sat down on the ground. Seeing this, Xiao Yifei quickly helped her up, asking cautiously, "Are you okay?"

At this, Liu Sisi shook her head, "I told you, she's not a good person." Liu Sisi grumbled as she stood up from the ground, but suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, nearly losing her balance and falling again.

"Are you really alright?" Watching Liu Sisi's current state, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but ask again. "I'm going to my room to rest for a while." Saying this, Liu Sisi went back to her room with Xiao Yifei's support. Along the way, Xiao Yifei kept advising Liu Sisi not to meddle anymore, but alas, it seemed she completely ignored him.

With the door gently closed, Xiao Yifei shrugged helplessly and left, after all, imposing one's thinking on others is not feasible.

However, as he walked away, Xiao Yifei bumped into Liu Rui. Liu Rui's face was filled with guilt; upon seeing Xiao Yifei, he asked where Liu Sisi was. Xiao Yifei simply said Liu Sisi was feeling unwell and resting in her room, advising Liu Rui not to disturb her.

Hearing this from Xiao Yifei, Liu Rui could only nod; but seeing the guilt on Liu Rui's face, Xiao Yifei didn't know what to do either. After all, such matters were far beyond what he, as an outsider, could get involved in.

So Xiao Yifei didn't say much more and just told Liu Rui to ponder by himself. Leaving Liu Rui, Xiao Yifei came to Mr. Hu's room, seeing Mr. Hu lying on the bed, seemingly lost in thought.

"Mr. Hu." Xiao Yifei entered, first greeting him. Hearing this, Hu Jingtang nodded faintly.

"Mr. Hu, how are you feeling?" Due to being overly upset last night, Hu Jingtang was quite unwell, but after drinking the medicine Xiao Yifei prepared, he was much better and promptly waved his hand to indicate he was fine.

"That's good. Adjust your mood for a while, try to avoid getting angry," Xiao Yifei advised, and then shifted the topic to Liu Rui.
