"If Uncle Nie's words come without any conditions attached, I would be immensely grateful. However, if they are predicated on my cousin's marriage, then I must respectfully decline." Shen Luo stated bluntly, without hesitation, upon hearing their words.
Nie Renbei furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing this. He felt that he had already shown maximum benevolence, yet this young man in front of him remained dissatisfied, which infuriated him.
"Cai Zhu, outsiders may not be aware of our Nie family's predicament, but surely you do? Your flight from your arranged marriage has already caused complications for the family. Luckily, the Second Young Master pleaded on your behalf, and the Governor did not blame the Nie family. Are you really going to prioritise personal interests over family duty? Can you face your Father, the Nie family, like this?" Nie Renbei stopped persuading Shen Luo and turned to Nie Caizhu instead.
