But Si Mingjing arrogantly said, "I don't need anyone else's protection."
Was he actually being looked down upon? Su Cheng fumed. He slung an arm around her neck. "Do you know how influential our third brother is in the Imperial Capital? As long as I'm protecting you, you can swagger through any entertainment venue in the Imperial Capital, understand? However, as your brother, I absolutely can't marry my sworn sister..."
The Su Family Patriarch, brandishing his walking stick, yelled at Su Cheng to get lost. With Su Cheng's character, pairing him with Mingjing would be an insult to her! the Patriarch fumed. He had two other grandsons, Su Lie and Su Yu. Either of them would make a far better husband for Mingjing than that scoundrel Su Cheng!
