None of them could believe Su'Er would say such a thing.

For this birthday banquet, the Su family had invited almost all of China's richest and most powerful families. All of them wielded great authority within China. They had gone to all of this trouble to let them bear witness to the marriage between the Su and Xuanyuan families, so that this matter would be publicly acknowledged and for them to support Su'Er.

No one expected such a thing to happen.

Su Hong Cheng understood just how serious the consequences of today's rejection would be. The hall was filled with guests he had invited to bear witness to this event, but now, he wished they could all disappear. He didn't dare to look at the Xuanyuan father and son's faces. Instead, he hurriedly put his hands on Su'Er's shoulders. The noble and dignified Mayor Su started to stutter while speaking, "Su'Er, y-y-ou¦ what did you say¦ this¦ y-you can't joke about things like this¦ you agreed to this engagement, r-r-right¦"

Su'Er shook her said as she softly said, "Dad, I'm not joking. Xuanyuan Xue Yi is indeed, quite excellent, but I don't like him at all. Before, I didn't refuse, because dad, uncle and aunty¦ were all set on this matter. You all felt that Xuanyuan Xue Yi was the best match for me, and always said that I would be happy if I married into his family. I was afraid that if I refused, dad, uncle and aunty wouldn't be happy, so I¦ I¦"

Su'Er's voice was incredibly soft, but everyone could hear the determination in her voice. As her father, even Su Hong Cheng felt unfamiliar with this side of his daughter. From his memories, his daughter had always been gentle and meek like a kitten. Normally, she would agree with what he said, and was incredibly obedient. Hearing her words, Su Hong Cheng felt a bit stunned¦ At this moment, he realised that what he had interpreted as his daughter's agreement was simply her personality¦ Just because she didn't refuse didn't mean she was truly wiling.

Today was the first time
