Chapter 66: Cling on to Qian Jiyun Tightly
“You also asked why Sister Jiuyue did not allow everyone to go into her treehouse. Think about it—this is a tree. No matter how big it is, it is still just a tree.
“The treehouse is already so heavy. It will collapse if so many people go upstairs.”
It is not right to destroy her home. We can sit under the treehouse and be sheltered from the flood, but we will be left with nothing if the treehouse collapses. Why did Xue Ling not consider these things?
“Given our status, that woman should have, at least, invited us upstairs, right? Aren’t you tired, Yan Yan? Don’t you want to sleep?” Xue Ling asked, aggrieved.
She wanted to find a place to sleep, but An Jiuyue refused to let them sleep in the treehouse and only allowed them to change their clothes. She even bullied her and threw her down.
She was angry! She wanted to kill An Jiuyue!
Qian Yiyun replied, “Ask around, Sister Xue Ling. Who isn’t tired? Look at everyone. They’re sitting with their backs against each other when they feel tired. Isn’t that pretty good too?”
“How can they be comparable to me? I’m—”
“Everyone is equal in this natural disaster!” Qian Jiyun interrupted her before she could finish.
“Xue Ling, none of this would have happened if you had stayed in the house. Since we’re already in this situation now, you should bear with it. No one will entertain your rotten habits!”
“I… Brother Yun, how can you say that to me? I…”
His words were insufferable. Xue Ling’s eyes reddened instantly.
She was the eldest daughter whom her father doted. No one, not even her mother, dared to scold her. However, she had been bullied by An Jiuyue and the other women here. Even Qian Jiyun and Qian Yiyun were not helping her now.
Who did I even offend?
“When the floodwaters subside, I will send someone to send you back. I will discuss with your father and arrange for your marriage to someone from a family of similar backgrounds,” Qian Jiyun said coldly.
He did not want to see this woman again. They would have been in the military camp if not for her. Now that he was here, he was unsure of what was happening in the camp.
Xue Ling shook her head, her face pale. “No… don’t.”
She did not want to marry anyone, but if she had to, she wanted to marry Qian Jiyun.
“Brother Yun, I’ll be good. I won’t spout nonsense again. Don’t send me home.”
The Xue family were businessmen. Although they were rich, they were of a lower social status.
Her father was a stingy man. He might pamper her, but he only cared for her brother. She would never have a share of his inheritance. In fact, she would have to ask her father for money several times before getting it.
“A family of similar backgrounds”? How will I find good in-laws with a family like mine?
Besides, Qian Jiyun’s family is the best.
She was determined to cling on to Qian Jiyun tightly.
