"What boyfriend? Have we given our consent?" the middle-aged woman snapped.
"Li Gang, our Xiaoli is getting engaged to Wei Shuai tomorrow. You'd better give up on that idea."
"What engagement? I didn't agree to it at all!" Wu Li protested urgently.
"Your consent isn't needed. Your father and I will decide this matter," Wu Li's mother said authoritatively.
"What era is this anymore? Still practicing arranged marriages?"
Wang Yue suddenly interjected.
The corridor here was quite narrow, and Li Gang was tall and bulky.
Wu Li and the others hadn't noticed Wang Yue standing behind him until he spoke up.
"This is our family's business. What does it have to do with you?" Wu Li's mother looked at Wang Yue's young, boyish appearance with disdain and waved her hand dismissively.
"Go play somewhere else, little brat!"
