Yaoyao's worry transformed into a feeling of delight. "You're right. I'm young and ignorant, and I know nothing. If you hadn't schemed to seduce me, I would not have agreed to marry you privately, which is why this is all your fault. It's only right for my father to beat you up."
Beitang You, "…"
When she saw his face darkened, Yaoyao chuckled happily. "It's not too late for you to go back on your word. Otherwise, you'll have to bear the burden of my father's fury."
Beitang You pinched her cheek and said resignedly, "I would have given up long ago if I was afraid, but if I really were to be beaten up by your father, would it break your heart?"
"No, it won't." Yaoyao shook her head decisively. "You deserve to be beaten up because you schemed to steal my heart."
Beitang You had no idea whether to laugh or to cry. "Don't you dare cry if that really happens."
"I won't cry at all," she said confidently while leaning into his arms.
