The Shi family was not brainless.
If the Ning family had chosen to break off the engagement deal just because Qin Yu was a fool, Qu Li would have prepared media exposure and started a fight with them. In that case, it would have been a battle to see who prevailed out of that thorny situation.
As such, they knew that the Ning family would have most likely chosen to keep the peace.
If they had wanted to kick Qin Yu out, they would have had to use more money to settle the matter. They would also risk having their secrets leaked to the Shi family through Qin Yu.
So what if the Ning family was powerful? When the time came, they could brand Qin Yu as a 'poor little girl' and use her to deal with them. They could even claim that Eldest Young Master Ning had abandoned her. Sometimes, the ideas that are birthed from imbeciles can be surprisingly brilliant.
Obviously, because they were inhumane.
Qin Yu smiled.
