Sheng Xiao had mentioned before that he would try to find out whether his Third Brother wanted to escape his arranged marriage, and if he did, he would try to bring Third Brother and his parents out of the Sheng family.
Nonetheless, Third Brother promptly turned him down. "Taking precedent in your departure from the family, the old man now holds a deep grudge against betrayals towards the Sheng family. Sure, I could escape his clutches, but my parents aren't really keen on changing their lifestyle. That's why I'm not risking it, and there's nothing bad about marrying a halfwit. Who knows, maybe my life would become easier after that?"
"Third Brother…" Mu Qiqi called out to Third Brother over the call as well. "It concerns the rest of your life. Are you sure about this?"
"Actually, you should think about it this way: isn't Miss Hu a little innocent in this too? She has to jump into the big pit that is the Sheng family."
