Aunt Dong saw her daughter's red eyes and knew she had been crying. Her own eyes were so full of heartache that she didn't even notice her daughter's swollen lips.
"Mom, I'm okay now. This is Xiao Wen. You know him. I want to marry him."
Hearing her daughter's words, Aunt Dong was so shocked her eyes nearly popped out of her head. She stared at her daughter in disbelief. 'Did I hear that right?'
'Her own daughter wants to marry Sheng Shijing's brother? What on earth could have happened to provoke such a decision!'
Although Aunt Dong was a bit slow to react, she quickly came to her senses and a smile appeared on her face. "Xiao Wen is a good kid. Well then, you two can get engaged first!"
She knew there was a high chance her daughter was just acting out of spite, but it wouldn't do for the bride's parents to be the first to object.
