C12 Forcing Marriage

"Greetings, Grandpa."

Xiao Feng smiled faintly and nodded his head in satisfaction. The wrinkles on his face became more obvious with the smile on the corner of his eyes. His white hair was combed very smoothly. Perhaps it was because he had been a good kept woman for a long time, but the traces of time did not match his actual age.

"That's good! Get ready, go and propose marriage." Xiao Feng picked up the teacup and gently blew at the mouth of the cup. The light inside the cup rippled slightly.

"Grandfather, must we do this?" Xiao Yichen's thin lips parted slightly. He pondered for a long time before he squeezed out these words.

"If you don't want to inherit the Xiao family's business, and you don't want to take the mines of the British royal family, then... You can withdraw now. For me, there is no loss. Besides, Xiao Yimo will take over everything that should belong to you for you. Including Catherine. "

Xiao Feng spoke very slowly. He stared at Xiao Yichen's deep black eyes. When he heard Catherine's name, there were obvious fluctuations in his eyes. The coldness in his eyes gradually faded away to replace the anger that he had been enduring.

When he was very young, Xiao Feng had expressed his stance in front of the whole family. Of the two grandsons of the Xiao family, only one could inherit all the properties of the Xiao family. The other could only pray for his own good. In his lifetime, he would at most be a wealthy businessman or a person with a higher quality of life than an ordinary person. However, this person no longer had any status in the Xiao family.

Seeing that Xiao Yichen did not speak, Xiao Feng raised his eyes and said casually, "I originally planned to go to the Pei Family myself, but I am old and inconvenient to move around."

After hearing this, Xiao Yichen frowned slightly. He wouldn't treat his grandfather coldly in front of him, but if he wanted him to agree with his grandfather, he wouldn't be able to hide his thoughts.

In Xiao family, his grandfather treated every child equally. Everyone had the right to speak and make a decision. Except for a certain matter that they had decided before they were born, they could basically make a decision through discussion.

"Grandfather, you arranged it, right?" Xiao Yichen glanced at the newspaper on his grandfather's desk. His words were gentle, but there was a clear chill in them.

"I only gave you a push. In fact, it also proves that you have feelings for her. Otherwise, you would not have turned around to save her. Everything is reasonable. I am just an invisible hand of yours. I will add fuel to the fire for you."

Grandfather's tone was calm and modest, and it was only natural that he pushed all the blame to Xiao Yichen. He clearly meant that you were too unreliable. As an elder, I had no choice but to be a bad person for you and open up a path for you.

Xiao Yichen wasn't stupid. He naturally knew what kind of plan his grandfather had in mind. At least he knew how to grab Xiao Yichen's weakness and make him compromise. Obviously, this was very effective. Xiao Yichen would never give the inheritance of Xiao family to Xiao Yimo just like that.

The four words deep brotherhood was simply a joke to these brothers. They had been taught since they were young that the strong prey on the weak. They would never get along with each other peacefully. The only thing they could do was to grasp the other party's weak point and stomp it under their feet.

"Okay! I'll go to the Pei Family and propose marriage right now!" Xiao Yichen got up angrily and accidentally spilled the tea on the table. The tea spilled on the table and slowly flowed onto the brown-red carpet covered with golden roses.

"There is no hurry. Luo Luo has work to do now. When she is done, I will call your parents to come and propose a marriage."

After leaving the study room, Xiao Yichen returned to his bedroom and sat quietly on the bed. There was only an eye-catching sapphire crystal frame on the clean and white bedside table. Inside was a blonde woman caressing her hair and smiling sweetly at the camera.

"Catherine..."

Too many scenes flashed through his mind, piecing together into memory fragments. Looking at the woman in the frame, Xiao Yichen's hand unconsciously became ruthless.

The morning sun carried a trace of coolness as it slowly permeated the entire morning. Pei Luoluo felt that someone was shouting something beside her ear. When she heard it carefully, it seemed to be calling her name.

"Luo Luo, Luo Luo! Get up!"

The familiar voice had been by her ear since she was young. Pei Luoluo frowned and raised her hand to block the glaring sunlight. She lazily said, "Mom, what time is it?"

"10 o'clock!"

When she heard the time, Pei Luoluo immediately sat up and just happened to hit Pei's mother's head. It made her cry out in pain and hit Pei Luoluo's head.

"You must die! You damn lass!"

"Mom! Why didn't you call me earlier!"

"How early? Six o'clock? I don't know how to look at a huge clock hanging on the wall! Also, your dad went to the market early in the morning to buy fish. Is he coming back for lunch?"

Pei's mother rubbed her forehead as she looked at her flustered daughter. She really did not know how she got into the psychology exam. The moment she came back, she bumped into him and did not have any professional qualities at all.

Pei Luoluo blinked and realized that the time displayed on the wall was 7: 40 in the morning.

It was already 8: 30 in the morning when they arrived at the station. Zhang Chen looked at his watch and did not say anything as he brought Pei Luoluo into the interrogation room.

"Are you ready?" Zhang Chen was still a little worried.

Pei Luoluo nodded and tidied her clothes. She coughed lightly and pushed open the door of the interrogation room and walked in. She happened to meet the exhausted and bloodshot Lee Hui.

Obviously, Lee Hui did not expect Chief Chen to mention that the psychologist was Pei Luoluo, who he had watched grow up. His eyes were also somewhat surprised. But at that moment, he seemed to be relieved and pulled out a lonely smile towards Pei Luoluo.

If he remembered correctly, Pei Luoluo took her parents and grandma to the 51 restaurant for dinner half a year ago. At that time, Lee Hui also said that Luo Luo liked to eat meat and gave her an extra serving of toothpick shredded meat. It was not counted as money.

After a few months, the uncle in her memory who kindly loved her now had stubble all over his face and was haggard in front of her. Pei Luoluo felt that her eyes were astringent and uncomfortable.

"Luo Luo?" Zhang Chen called softly beside Pei Luoluo's ear. Pei Luoluo quickly turned her face and took a deep breath. She apologized and sat opposite of Lee Hui. There was an iron table and iron chair that was cold to the bone.

"Hello, I am your counselor, Pei Luoluo. We will meet often during this period of time. If you need me, I hope I can do something for you." Pei Luoluo reached out her hand and smiled politely.

After Lee Hui heard the official's words, he only shook his head lightly. His hoarse voice carried a relieved expression as he slowly said, "Dr. Pei, I don't need anything. My mind is also very normal. My motive is also very clear. I don't need your help. I have already confessed and now I just want to wait for death. "

Pei Luoluo was slightly stunned and tried to analyze the meaning of Lee Hui's words. Then she frowned and her vision gradually blurred. She admitted that Lee Hui's straightforward and firm refusal made her heart sink.

If a person wanted to die wholeheartedly, no one could help him.
