Seeing such a miraculous turnaround in the situation left not only him but his parents stunned too!
His mother kept saying tirelessly that Qingcong must have stepped in dog poop to have such good fortune fall onto her lap.
However, he believed that for a girl as perfect and likable as Qingcong, winning the affection of a royal heir was an easy feat.
Just like himself, anyone who had spent time with her would be captivated by her transcendent charisma, which was unlike any other girl's.
While his parents didn't understand him, he also didn't get their mentality. Why did they insist he marry a girl from a family of equal status?
They hounded him daily, urging him to get engaged to Song Yuanyuan, the daughter of the Deputy Mayor Song. The engagement date was even scheduled for October 1st.
Their actions, disregarding his wishes and disrespecting him by unilaterally making decisions, made him feel distressed, heartbroken, and desperate to escape this suffocating home.
