Xiao Wan'er thought of several excuses, but felt none of them would get past her second sister, so she could only tell her to ask for Chen Yi's opinion first.
After all, from what she knew of Chen Yi, the man was undeniably talented, but he was also an idle, lazy good-for-nothing.
'Even if he isn't... he'd better be!'
Setting aside Xiao Wan'er's inner turmoil, Xiao Jinghong received her sister's reply and made a mental note to find some time to talk with Chen Yi.
As she had said before, she was well aware of her grandfather's purpose for having Chen Yi marry into the family, so she had never considered refusing.
It was just that with so many things happening with the Xiao Family and the Dingyuan Army, she didn't have the time to figure out her relationship with Chen Yi, let alone how to act around him.
After thinking it over, Xiao Jinghong decided it was best for them both to keep busy with their own affairs.
