"You must know that everyone in this world who knows about my master wishes they could pour their entire fortune into marrying their daughters to me. Zhou Yu never expected Su Qishan to refuse so impatiently.
"Uncle Su, this marriage should have been decided between my master and Old Master Su. Wouldn't it be inappropriate to break it now?"
"The Old Master is senile, but we are not!"
Zhang Rufeng sized up Zhou Yu and said dismissively, "This is Mr. Chen, the housekeeper of Zhang Group. He is here today to propose marriage for the eldest young master of the Zhang family, Zhang Shaohua."
"That's right, Young Master Zhang has long been enamored with our daughter. The Zhang family is also one of the top three super corporations and wealthy families in this city. Have you also heard of the God of War Leng Xue?"
Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow, surprised by the connection to Leng Xue. He asked indifferently, "What about it?"
"God of War Leng Xue will be selecting new talents in Yunhai City to train new members of the Battle Dragon team. The Zhang family has now been included in the candidate list!"
"In other words, it won't be long before Young Master Zhang becomes a subordinate of the God of War. Do you understand what that means?"
For any young scion of a family in Yunhai, this meant an opportunity to soar to unprecedented heights!
It was a heaven-sent chance to bring glory to their ancestors and leap from obscurity to prominence!
Zhang Rufeng let out a sneer, "Why are you telling him all this? How could he, a mere prison guard, understand its significance!"
"Good! I understand!"
Zhou Yu took a deep breath and nodded.
Since the Su family was unwilling, Zhou Yu naturally had no interest in forcing himself upon them. He said directly, "Since you wish to break the engagement, I hope you won't regret it in the future!"
Zhou Yu stood up to leave.
At that moment.
"I'm willing to marry him!"
A clear, crisp voice suddenly came from the doorway.
Following the voice, a woman with a delicate and beautiful face entered. Her figure was graceful and slender, especially her round, straight jade legs, which were truly a masterpiece.
Su Yuyan walked directly to Zhou Yu's side and took his arm. "I love Zhou Yu, and I am willing to marry him!"
"Nonsense!"
*Slap!*
Su Qishan slammed the table and stood up. "You don't get to decide this matter!"
He then turned to Zhou Yu, "Steward Zhang has already come to propose. Young Master Zhang has taken a liking to you. Compared to this insignificant prison guard, the Zhang family's status and background, which is not a better match for your identity?"
Before Zhou Yu could speak this time, Su Yuyan immediately interjected, "I don't want to marry that Young Master Zhang! I want Zhou Yu, and I will only marry him!"
"You… you've truly gone too far!"
Su Qishan roared in anger.
After speaking, Su Yuyan actually grabbed Zhou Yu and left the house.
After the two left.
Zhang Rufeng was so angry she could barely contain herself. "Su Qishan, look at your daughter! See what a spoiled child you've raised!"
"Is this the time to say that? Send someone to bring them back!"
Su Qishan's face also looked displeased. But he couldn't afford to be angry now and quickly said to Steward Wu by his side, "Steward Wu, please don't misunderstand. My daughter is young and doesn't understand. This is all just play! She will definitely get engaged to Young Master Zhang today."
Zhang Rufeng looked at Steward Wu's stern expression, knowing that things were not going well, and quickly instructed the bodyguards to go and find them.
"No need!"
"Since you cannot handle this properly, I will have to report it to the Old Master!"
Steward Wu stood up to leave, but at this moment, his mind was deeply impressed by the sandalwood and purple wood prayer beads in the transparent box. As the steward of the Zhang family, he had seen far more antique collections than Su Qishan and his wife. He recognized at a glance that the prayer beads were genuine and exquisitely carved, not of ordinary quality.
The young man using this as a betrothal gift was likely not as ordinary as he seemed. He would have to have the family head thoroughly investigate this matter.
On the other side.
Su Yuyan drove Zhou Yu for a while before finally stopping.
Su Yuyan bit her lower lip. "Regarding the marriage just now, I want to talk to you again."
Su Yuyan glanced at the man beside her from the corner of her eye. Although they had only met once, she didn't even know what kind of person Zhou Yu was.
But she still wanted to take a gamble!
"I am willing to register our marriage with you, but I want to tell you first, doing so might offend the Zhang family. Do you dare?"
Zhou Yu was slightly surprised by Su Yuyan's directness. He asked with a half-smile, "You don't want to marry that Young Master Zhang?"
Su Yuyan bit her lips, her eyes showing a hint of anger.
Not just unwilling!
She would rather die than marry that notorious Young Master Zhang!
But the Su family, in their eagerness to curry favor with the Zhang family, paid no heed to her wishes. She had already resigned herself to fate, until Zhou Yu appeared, giving her a sliver of hope.
Anyone was better than that Zhang Shaohua!
"Don't worry! I just want you to register our marriage. We'll be husband and wife in name, but I won't interfere with whatever you want to do! After some time, if you want a divorce, I'll agree!"
"It's just that during this time, you… you can't force me to do those things."
Zhou Yu found Su Yuyan's frankness quite interesting.
"Why should I help you?"
Hearing Zhou Yu's words.
Su Yuyan's grip on the steering wheel tightened.
Now, Zhou Yu was the only one who could help her. If he refused, she would have no other recourse.
Just as she was at a loss,
Zhou Yu suddenly chuckled, "Alright! I promise you, but you have to promise me one condition!"
Su Yuyan felt an instinctive nervousness. "What condition?"
"Don't rush! This matter is not too difficult for you!"
Zhou Yu looked at Su Yuyan with a smile.
"Then where are we going now?"
"To register our marriage!"
