Xinyi froze.
"What?"
As she read through them, she found that they were indeed legal marriage papers.
"W-what is going on?"
"I want you to marry Zhiyuan."
Xinyi looked at him, aghast. "Marry Zhiyuan? That is impossible. He-"
"Loves An Caihong?" Han Huizhong chuckled. "I don't care about that. I have decided that you will be my granddaughter-in-law."
She clutched her dress. Her heart thudded in fear to oppose him, but she had to.
"H-how can you not care? Zhiyuan's happiness is with Caihong. You cannot force him to marry someone he...he doesn't love."
The last part hurt her heart.
Han Huizhong leaned back on his seat. He rested his cheek on his palm and said, "Listen Soo Xinyi. I have two principles in life. Do you know what they are?"
Xinyi kept quiet.
He smiled. "Peace and profit. Peace at home and profit in business. I can go to any lengths to achieve that balance. If I want you to marry Zhiyuan, that means you will marry Zhiyuan. End of the story."
