"Cousin." A stubborn light flared in Xu Jiali's clear eyes.
Looking at Xu Jiali, blinded by love, Mrs. Xie felt a pang of wistfulness. She herself had been even more stubborn back in the day. The Gao family had declined in recent years, but a starved camel is still bigger than a horse. They were on a level the Jie Family of Huaxia couldn't hope to match.
Family background aside, in her parents' eyes, Gao Qiang was better than Jie Jianguo had been back then. At least Gao Qiang wasn't a divorcé. This was why the two elders didn't stop Xu Jiali from dating Gao Qiang.
The two elders had extremely low requirements for the younger generation's marriages. They didn't care about social standing, only character.
Mrs. Xie looked at her parents and asked, "Does Gao Qiang's character pass muster?"
Disappointment in his daughter flickered in the grandfather's eyes. His tone was resolute as he said, "Better than Jie Jianguo."
