“Didn’t both our families know about us and silently agreed to it?”
How was it that she and Zhai Yaohui were unrelated? Weren’t these relations? They were related!
Shi Peng disagreed. “Silently agreed to it? What kind of answer is this? Can things like marriage be silently agreed to? Minlan, let me tell you. You’re losing out on this situation because of this attitude.”

The so-called silent agreement couldn’t even be considered a promise. There was no matchmaker and no certificate. If word of this spread, the Zhai family might have little reason, but their Shi family was even more unreliable.
If both families really had the intention for their children to get married to each other, why didn’t they say so clearly in the first place?
Even if the Zhai family didn’t say it clearly, there’s still the Shi family. Didn’t the Shi family have the intention to say things clearly as well?
Everyone knew that the Zhai family’s status was higher than the Shi family’s.
How would the Shi family’s attitude not make people doubt that the Shi family was interested in the power of the Zhai family? After that, they didn’t dare to urge the Zhai family for fear that the marriage between Qi Minlan and Zhai Yaohui would be ruined if they annoyed the Zhai family.
Shi Peng knew that his father had some thoughts. His sister had quite a lot of thoughts as well.
He didn’t expect these thoughts to be quite unreliable.
Based on what his sister had said, he couldn’t blame Zhai Yaohui even if Zhai Yaohui really married another woman, let alone if Zhai Yaohui didn’t acknowledge his relationship with his sister now.
Wasn’t there a saying that only an officially married woman was considered a wife?
Those who didn’t walk this clear path were not considered to be serious.
“Alright, if you and Zhai Yaohui don’t have any witness in this regard, our family can only suffer this loss in private. Forget it. Zhai Yaohui… It’s fine. Let’s find another better one. There’re benefits even if there’s no Zhai Yaohui. Think about it. If Zhai Yaohui doesn’t treat you well, based on the Zhai family’s situation, it won’t be as convenient for me as an older brother to help you. If you find another person, I can help you keep an eye on your man.”
Zhai Yaohui was too powerful. If he really became his brother-in-law, Shi Peng wouldn’t have the slightest sense of being an older brother.
For a person with a strong aura like Zhai Yaohui, and upon thinking about his sister’s style, Shi Peng felt that they were not suitable.
Based on how his sister was playing the field, she would anger and annoy Zhai Yaohui sooner or later.
Military marriages generally couldn’t be divorced. However, nothing was absolute.
As he thought about this, Shi Peng felt that it wasn’t a bad thing that Zhai Yaohui’s marriage with the playful Qi Minlan didn’t work out.
“Brother, am I your sister, or is Zhai Yaohui your brother? He bullied me like this, but you’re not helping me at all. Brother, are you still my brother? Is there a brother like you?”
Qi Minlan was unhappy and dissatisfied with Shi Peng’s attitude.
“What do you want, then?” Shi Peng had a headache. This was the situation now. Who asked them not to prepare beforehand?
The work done in the early phase wasn’t well, thus leading to the embarrassing situation now. Why was all the responsibility and blame on him now?
“Brother, go create trouble for Zhai Yaohui. Help me teach him a lesson. He entered the army two or three years later than you. You should be better than him, right?”
Since Zhai Yaohui made her feel uncomfortable emotionally, she was going to make him feel uncomfortable physically.
He dared to abandon her. Zhai Yaohui did not need to think about leading a peaceful life.

“…” Shi Peng didn’t really want to bother himself with Qi Minlan, his sister.
When Zhai Yaohui and Qi Minlan were together in the past, he had always abided by the rules. He never took advantage of Qi Minlan or became particularly close to any girls aside from her.
Such an outstanding Zhai Yaohui had already done so well. However, Qi Minlan played with a bunch of boys.
Even if the marriage between the two didn’t happen, Shi Peng couldn’t go against his conscience and say that Zhai Yaohui had done something sorry to his sister. He could only hide her ugliness and say that they were not suitable for each other.
Zhai Yaohui wasn’t a scumbag to his sister. How could Shi Peng go over and hit Zhai Yaohui?
Shi Peng wasn’t willing. However, Qi Minlan was not willing to let things off just like this.
Not only did Shi Peng not get a good rest and be reunited with his family after finally coming home, but he even argued with Qi Minlan until he had a headache. “Alright, stop it. I’ll go and find Zhai Yaohui to settle scores, okay?”
Upon knowing that if he didn’t agree to Qi Minlan, she would definitely not let him off, Shi Peng hurriedly raised his hands up in surrender, signaling that he would listen to her.
Qi Minlan smiled. “Brother, I know that you treat me the best. Brother, don’t be merciful when you lay a hand on him. I’m feeling so uncomfortable now that I want to die. My heart aches until I can’t breathe. Think of how uncomfortable I am now, and you will know how heavy a hand you should lay on Zhai Yaohui then.”
“Okay, I’ll listen to you.”
Shi Peng stood up, picked up his clothes, and left.
Qi Minlan kept following Shi Peng, which made him more speechless.
Qi Minlan smiled only when she saw Shi Peng walk in the direction of the Zhai family with her own eyes. “Zhai Yaohui, you abandoned me. Don’t think that it’s so easy to bully me, Qi Minlan. You want to marry a girl from the countryside? We’ll see how embarrassing you and your Zhai family are in the future!”
Even if Zhai Yaohui was regretful for not marrying her back then, she definitely would not show him any good looks.
Her brother was right. Without Zhai Yaohui, she could still find someone else.
There were so many men in this world. Why did she have to be so fixated on Zhai Yaohui?
Zhai Yaohui would definitely be making a wrong decision by marrying Miao Jing. However, she was going to marry the right person and show Zhai Yaohui how happy she was.
Qi Minlan walked over to the Zhai family slowly since Shi Peng had not yet returned after an hour.
Qi Minlan knew that there was a small empty house behind the Zhai family’s house. Although it was said to be a small house, it wasn’t small at all.
Old Zhai had trained Zhai Yaohui’s skills in this small house.
Sometimes, Shi Peng would come over here to train as well. As such, Qi Minlan was quite familiar with this small house.
Knock! Knock!
“Please enter.” Zhai Yaohui’s rapid breathing could be heard from inside.
Qi Minlan pushed open the door and entered. She saw Zhai Yaohui in a sorry state. His clothes seemed to be tattered, and he was sitting on the ground, wiping his sweat profusely.
Qi Minlan’s eyes shone first. Then, she looked nervous. “Brother Zhai, are you alright? How can my brother do this?”
“…” Zhai Yaohui remained silent and didn’t say anything.
“Brother Zhai, don’t misunderstand. I’ve already persuaded my brother. Since you feel that we aren’t suitable for each other and you only treat me as a sister, I’ll respect your decision no matter how much I like you. We’ve already decided on this. Perhaps I looked too upset when I returned. My brother got angry and… I’ve already persuaded my brother. Really, I couldn’t hold him back. I don’t know what happened to him.. He became so bad-tempered.”
