Zhao Qinlian raised his brows. "Isn't there still that Miss Shen? Don't tell me you don't have confidence in your future daughter-in-law? "
Father Zhao took a sip of tea. After putting down the teacup, he looked at Zhao Qinlian quietly.
Father Zhao said, "There's something I forgot to tell you. A few days ago, Brother Shen came over, and we talked for a long time. In the end, we decided to cancel the engagement between you and Miss Shen. "
Zhao Qinlian instantly froze.
He faintly lowered his eyebrows, wiping the red lipstick mark on his face with a handkerchief as he asked nonchalantly.
"Why are you canceling the engagement all of a sudden?"
Father Zhao glared at him when he heard that.
"Isn't that because of you?! If you stopped fooling around outside and couldn't control yourself, that Miss Shen wouldn't have hanged herself! "
Father Zhao said, "Miss Shen was lucky to have rushed over in time and was still alive. That's why she didn't die. Now that she's finally awake, don't tell me you're going to force her to marry over? Who knows, she might even seek death in our Family Zhao! "
Zhao Qinlian didn't say anything.
The lipstick mark on his face was wiped clean, and he casually threw the handkerchief to the servant next to him.
"So be it. I'm also free."
He didn't care. "There are plenty of women waiting for me outside. I don't lack her."
However, a faint trace of regret still surfaced in Zhao Qinlian's heart. Even he didn't notice it.
"Hmph!" Father Zhao snorted. "The women outside … Can those women you've interacted with compare to Miss Shen? They're all vulgar women who want to climb up the social ladder! In any case, Miss Shen is from a scholarly family, a famous aristocratic family! How can those shady women outside compare to her in terms of etiquette and cultivation?! "
"Father, what's the point of saying all this? The engagement has already been canceled. Even if I want to keep her, it's too late. "Zhao Qinlian scoffed.
Suddenly, Father Zhao narrowed his deep eyes and looked at Zhao Qinlian.
No one knew a son better than his father.
Father Zhao could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Zhao Qinlian.
Zhao Qinlian's attitude looked lazy, but his words involuntarily mentioned Shen Wanqing.
Father Zhao sized up Zhao Qinlian and suddenly asked, "You've seen Miss Shen?"
Zhao Qinlian paused.
He knew that he couldn't hide it anymore.
He nodded, "Yes. Today, I inadvertently took a glance outside the Baile's window. "
His words were vague and not very clear.
On the other hand, Father Zhao raised his eyebrows.
He knew his son's character very well. He was a playboy, but he was also very casual.
Under his amorous appearance, he was very heartless. Basically, there were not many women that he could remember.
Father Zhao's heart stirred.
"The marriage isn't completely annulled yet. This is something that Brother Shen and I came up with after discussing it, and we haven't told anyone yet. I originally planned to announce it at the dinner table tomorrow, and then send people to spread the news … "
At this point, Father Zhao's meaning couldn't be any more obvious.
Zhao Qinlian leaned back in his chair and narrowed his eyes lazily.
He casually plucked a grape from the fruit platter beside him and bit the plump grape between his lips.
The skin of the grape was bitten, and the juice flowed down the corner of his lips.
He licked it with the tip of his tongue, and the flesh was mercilessly crushed and disappeared. His Adam's apple bobbed slightly.
