Seeing the dumbfounded look on Feng Hao's face, a smug expression spread across Xiyue Peak's features. He seized the opportunity to say, "Kid, I'm not an unreasonable man. I don't object to you and Yaoyao seeing each other, but I absolutely cannot let my daughter marry a man who will amount to nothing. Do you understand what I mean?"
"I get it. You just think I'm not good enough for Yao Girl right now, don't you?" Feng Hao said with a curl of his lip. "What's that saying again? 'The river flows east for thirty years, then west for thirty years. Don't look down on a young man just because he's poor.' I'm still young. I have plenty of potential and a future. You can't argue with that, can you?"
"Right. You do have a few tricks up your sleeve, kid," Xiyue Peak admitted reluctantly. His brow furrowed as he sighed and said, "My requirement is actually quite simple. I don't need you to achieve great things, but at the very least, you must have enough power to protect Yaoyao."
