"Things are not as simple as you think."
Sheng Qianmei shook her head and said, "My father was born into an Ancient Martial Arts Family, yet he had no talent for martial arts. He further defied my grandfather by marrying an American woman, my mother, which placed our family in a very low position within the Sheng Family. Although my father is a businessman and now has assets worth several billion, he still holds no status within the Sheng Family."
"Of course, I have no good feelings toward the Sheng Family either. They don't recognize us, and I'm not interested in currying favor with them. I never tell anyone I am from the Sheng Family. But, if I don't marry now, it will definitely provoke the Sheng Family's displeasure and retaliation. My father's company would be swallowed up, and our family will certainly meet a terrible end. I have to consider my parents, not just myself."
Sheng Qianmei looked at Liu Wentian, her eyes twinkling for a moment, but then dimmed again.
