When this was said, everyone else was stunned.
"Ranran, do you have a fiancé?"
Wen Wan asked, surprised.
They were colleagues and friends with Xiao Ran, yet they had no idea about her engagement.
Xiao Ran bit her lip and didn't answer, but instead said to Zhao Mingxuan, "I will not marry you!"
"Impudent!"
The elder slammed his dragon-headed cane onto the ground: "Xiao Ran! Are you trying to defy the heavens?"
"Dad, I already told you, I don't like him!"
Xiao Ran said assertively.
The elder, however, retorted sharply, "What's wrong with Mingxuan? The man graduated from a prestigious university, has his own company now, and is worth more than a billion! He is quite a match for our family! What else are you dissatisfied with?"
"Dad, why can't you understand? No matter what his qualifications are, if I don't like him, I don't like him!"
It was hard to imagine that the somewhat introverted and timid Xiao Ran would speak this way to her father, whom she had always revered.
