Chen Afu was caught between laughter and tears, thinking that this man's way of thinking was truly baffling. Fearing that he might attract the attention of onlookers, she decided to get rid of him as quickly as possible. So, she reprimanded him in a low voice, "My family has already made our stance very clear to Mrs. Li, the matchmaker. Keep your distance from me and refrain from uttering such nonsense in my presence in the future."
Wang Yingjun still wanted to plead his case, but seeing Chen Afu's face darken further and her picking up the stick on the ground, he hobbled away in fear.
After taking a few steps, he stopped, then turned around and said, "If Afu doesn't wish to agree, let it be. If your family ever needs help with any heavy labor, let Dabao come and call for me. I'll be glad to assist." He then jogged off into the distance.
Because he was so agitated, he nearly crashed into Chen Aju, who was walking on the same path.
