Bai Daqing returned to his residence, his face grim.
"Father, you're back." Bai Mudan quickly approached him, "What about Gao Fei... What did he say? Did he agree?"
Bai Daqing glanced at Bai Mudan but said nothing.
"What? He didn't agree?" Bai Mudan widened her eyes in surprise.
"That Gao Fei... He's so ungrateful," Bai Daqing huffed angrily, "I lowered myself to propose to him, and he actually refused. At that moment... I wanted nothing more than to slap him to death."
"Refused?" Bai Mudan's face went pale, "Why did he refuse? Am I not good enough for him?"
"Gao Fei said he's already married."
"Married?"
"And not just to one wife."
"More than one?"
"The way he looked... it didn't seem like he was lying."
"Just because of that?"
"Gao Fei said that if you insist on marrying him, you can only be a concubine."
