Ye Qingtang paused and continued.
"Father, think about it again. I've always been weak. When I had the spirit root, my ability could be considered high. No one would dare to challenge me. However… now I lost my spirit root. If I still request to marry over to the Duan family, it would make their whole family unsatisfied. I don't have the ability to defend myself anymore. Why do I have to go over just to be mocked by others? Even though Young Master Duan's words were not pleasant to listen to, he said them for my own good."
Ye Qingtang sounded very calm. None of her sentences were said out of anger. It seemed that she really did believe whatever Duan Tianrao explained.
Ye Ling was stunned. He did not imagine that Ye Qingtang would say so.
