Both of them went their separate ways, each doing their own thing.
That night, Jiu returned home without even eating dinner, storming back to his room in anger.
He had gone to find his brother-in-law, but was unable to convince him, leaving him feeling disgruntled.
His brother-in-law, that stubborn old mule, had outright refused him. Hmph, don't think that he had run out of options.
Miss Qi, Jiu's older sister, worriedly went to his room and asked him, "Who upset you, my little lord? Not even eating dinner?"
Jiu was the pampered child of the Qi family.
He was lying on the bed, shoes still on, angrily retorting, "Your husband."
"Him? How did he upset you? Tell your sister, and I'll deal with him." Miss Qi was sixteen years older than Jiu, and watched him grow up. Her relationship with Jiu was more like a mother-son relationship.
