Han Lingshi looked at the faces of her elders and sighed. She said, "What do you want from me?"
What else could she say in this set up where her own family was treating her as a criminal and interrogating her? Only her grandmother had an expression of calm and bliss. However, as a Patriarchal family the opinion of men was held in a higher value.
Her father said, "You never told us about dating anyone. Now we suddenly find that you even agreed to marry this guy, it is a bit too hard for us. I hope you understand."
Han Lingshi gazed at her father and said, "Still playing by the book of diplomacy? Am I your daughter or a client? You want to know why I never tell you guys what I do? Look at how you are treating me."
The middle-aged man did not loss his cool. Han Lingshi's mother, Lady Yue glared at her daughter and asked, "Is this how you talk to your father?"
Han Lingshi retorted back, "Then look at how your husband talks to your daughter."
