Chapter 999: Don’t Be Shameless

Bai Jie had clearly expressed his viewpoint to She Qi earlier. Bai Jie didn’t have any requirements for his daughter’s other half. As long as he was upright and she truly loved him, that was enough.

He wouldn’t use his daughter’s marriage as a bargaining chip, much less approve of any marriage alliance.

“Yes, Master Bai has expressed your viewpoint. But I still want Master Bai to see my sincerity. These betrothal gifts are just a small token. If you marry your daughter to me, I will definitely not let her suffer.” She Qi had a determined smile on his face.

Bai Jie just smiled. “Young Master She Qi is being generous, so our family shouldn’t reject him. It’s a pity that Jiaojiao is still young and is not ready for marriage yet.”

Chi Jiao, who was in Bai Jiao’er’s body, was confused when she heard this.

This matter didn’t have anything to do with her, right?

However, when Bai Jiao’er looked at her father, he shot her a quick look.

The smart Bai Jiao’er immediately understood what he meant.

Her attention was focused on She Qi and Bai Jie, so she didn’t notice Little Jue behind her.

When Little Jue heard Bai Jie mention Bai Jiao’er, his expression clearly became nervous.

However, Little Jue did not speak or step forward. He just clenched his fists and stood there, his aura turning colder.

Bai Jiao’er was like a proud little peacock as she straightened her neck. “Yes! Daddy is right. Young Master She Qi, I’m really sorry. I must find a handsome husband. Young Master… you’re not suitable for me.”

When the maidservants standing around heard this, they couldn’t help giggling.

Putting everything else aside, their young mistress’ tongue was really vicious.

As expected, She Qi’s face immediately turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He tried his best to maintain his smile. “I think Master Bai has misunderstood. The person I want to marry is the eldest daughter of the Bai family, Miss Bai Wanxi.”

When Bai Wanxi, who had been silent since the beginning, heard this, she glanced at him indifferently. “Thank you for your consideration, Young Master She Qi. However, I already have someone I love.”

“Yes, my brother-in-law is very knowledgeable. He’s especially considerate and good to my sister. Young Master She Qi, a gentleman doesn’t take away what others like. You should understand this principle, right?” Bai Jiao’er stared at She Qi’s face.

To be honest, Bai Jiao’er didn’t think She Qi was a gentleman at all.

It had to be said that Bai Jiao’er was right. She Qi was indeed not a gentleman. It could even be said that he was a little shameless.

She Qi seemed to have guessed that he would be rejected. He didn’t appear anxious at all. He just smiled casually. “I don’t mind. Anyone will inevitably experience some wayward romance before getting married. Miss Wanxi, as long as you cut off all contact with that man immediately, I can choose to let bygones be bygones.”

“Young Master She Qi! I’m only being polite to you because you’re the vice sect master of the Xuan Sect. Don’t be shameless!” Bai Jie couldn’t help rebuking when he heard She Qi talk to his precious daughter with such an arrogant attitude.

Even if the other party was the vice sect master of the Xuan Sect, there was no exception!

She Qi smiled casually. “I don’t mean to offend you. I’m just telling the truth. Miss Wanxi, you’re a smart person. Please ask yourself what that poor scholar can offer you.”
