After the incident with Qi Chengze, Qi Chenglin's parents no longer meddled with their children's personal life, allowing them to fall in love with whomever they please. Nothing outweighed the safety of their children, not even the prestige of other great families.
There was nothing bad about the freedom to love. The elders of the Qi family were not elitists. It was just that Qi Chenglin was already in his thirties and with nary a lady in sight, so freedom was never the issue. When was the man going to get married?
Their youngest grandchild, Qi Chengji, was in the military. He had only the company of burly middle-aged men, so the chances of him getting married were slim to none.
Only Qi Chengyue showed some promise by bringing back an actual boyfriend. Being dressed up to the nines, Grandmother Qi was fairly satisfied with this man.
