Yuan Sujie nodded. "He must not have been interested. If he had taken a liking to me, he wouldn't have left in such a hurry."
A Ten Heroes Genius like him couldn't have missed that the Yuan Family was trying to set the two of them up.
"Without a marriage alliance, it's impossible for the Yuan Family to help him become Elder Li Yang's disciple," Yuan Gang said resolutely.
He didn't believe in trust, only in blood ties. He decided that the next time Xu Yang visited, he would make this clear to him.
He had never thought much of Xu Yang in the first place. He only chose him because he had no one else available.
If Xu Yang refused the marriage, then their agreement would be void.
...
"Sigh..."
Leaving the Yuan Family estate, Xu Yang sighed helplessly.
He naturally knew why Yuan Gang had brought Yuan Sujie out, but he felt nothing for her and couldn't possibly agree to marry her.
'At this rate, I'm afraid things will turn ugly soon.'
'It might be for the best if they do!'
