Men Ling's parents seemed a bit taken aback by his words.
They exchanged a glance before her father spoke, "Young man Pei, we know you're a member of the Pei Family, but we tend not to interfere much with Men Ling's private life. The matter of your marriage is up to you two."
Pei Yanqing felt a slight twinge of disappointment at their indifferent attitude towards their daughter's love life.
Pei Yanqing took a deep breath, resetting his emotions.
He knew that at this moment, he needed to present himself as mature and composed. He looked straight into Men Ling's parents' eyes.
"Uncle, Auntie, I understand that you have your own opinions about Men Ling's lifestyle, and I respect that. But today, I want to express my gratitude. Thank you for raising Men Ling into such an exceptional woman. If not for that, I might not have had the privilege of meeting her."
The sincerity in Pei Yanqing's voice was evident, with his gaze full of earnestness.
