A gleeful look flashed through Wang Lingxi's eyes. "Exactly."
"You're clearly someone who doesn't know how lucky you are. That foul-mouthed girl has led you astray. Otherwise, why would you suddenly talk back to Mom and say such hurtful things?"
She plopped down beside her mother and supported her by the arm. "Mom, our family absolutely can't accept a daughter-in-law who tries to drive a wedge between mother and son."
Father Wang glared fiercely at her. "Don't make trouble. You've already made a mess of your own marriage, so stop interfering in your younger brother's."
"Dad..."
Father Wang fixed her with a warning look.
Hmph, keep spoiling him. Let's see what kind of monster you end up raising.
Just don't regret it later.
Wang Lingxi curled her lips and, looking thoroughly displeased, went back to her room.
Father Wang turned to his irritated-looking son. "Tell us, what exactly is the situation with her family, and what do they mean by it? If it can work out, then stay together. If not, call it off. Don't waste time."
Mother Wang was silent for a moment. "Your father is right. If you're suitable for each other, stay together. If not, call it off. With our family's conditions, we're not afraid of failing to find a woman from a good family."
In the past, Wang Zhiyao could still accept those words, but now they sounded especially grating.
He felt that they simply didn't understand him at all.
"Call it off, call it off. Do you think it's something that can just be called off?"
"What about my feelings? Can they just disappear because you say so?"
"She's already broken up with me. She said she'd never speak to me or see me again. Are you satisfied now?"
Father Wang was angered as well.
