Reborn as a Superpower Girl in the 80s-Chapter 1160: Why Must You Force Me

Zhai Yuyuan could never have imagined that instead of Lu Yichen, who she had been waiting for, she would be greeted by her own father, Big Brother, and Second Brother. Their faces darkened as they dragged her out of the police station.

Upon returning home and barely stepping into the living room, she was met with a slap from her father. "You really have some nerve, how could I have a daughter as shameless as you?" Zhai Hongtao furiously scolded.

Zhai Yuyuan’s eyes widened, filled with tears, a look of disbelief on her face as she stared at Zhai Hongtao. "You all, you all.........."

She turned around, trying to run to the door, but was stopped by her Second Brother standing at the doorway, Zhai Yuquan. "I’ve said before, if you dare to provoke Lu Yichen again, I won’t acknowledge you as my sister. I can’t afford to lose that face.

Today, I’ll make it official; I no longer acknowledge you as my sister. I have no sister who is without shame or dignity." After his outburst, he turned and left the yard, disappearing at the gate.

The Zhai family hadn’t expected Zhai Yuquan to erupt like that, nor to say such harsh words.

Old Master Zhai looked at his son. "Get in touch with the Ji family and move their wedding date up as soon as possible. The Zhai family cannot keep her any longer."

Upon hearing this, Zhai Yuyuan panicked. "Grandpa, you can’t, I don’t like Ji Wei. What era are we in now? You still want to arrange my marriage? Aren’t you afraid that if you push me too far, I’ll go report you?"

Her words made the old man laugh in anger. "Fine, you have two choices. One is to listen to the family and marry Ji Wei to lead a good life. You know Ji Wei has liked you since childhood and will definitely treat you well.

The other is to break ties with the Zhai family; leave this house, fend for yourself, and have nothing more to do with the Zhai family. The choice is yours."

Zhai Yuyuan looked at her grandfather. "Grandpa, did you ever really love me, or was it all just an act?"

Her voice rose several notches. "Why must you force me?"

Old Master Zhai looked at his granddaughter, who he had doted on since she was little, and suddenly didn’t know what to say.

Rubbing his temples to ease the discomfort, he said to his son, "You handle this. I’m just the grandfather after all, and I’m one generation removed. I don’t want you to blame me later."

With that, he went back to his room.

Zhai Hongtao knew his father was probably hurt by his daughter’s words, guilt evident in his eyes.

He understood why his father wanted Yuyuan to marry into the Ji family as soon as possible: first, because the Ji family was far away in the south, which would sever Yuyuan’s thoughts about Lu Yichen, and second, because the Ji family was also a prominent family in the south. Since Ji Wei had liked Yuyuan since they were kids, he would be able to protect her if any issues arose.

However, his daughter’s mind was clearly muddled now; she did not understand that her grandfather was trying to help and protect her. Instead, she hysterically claimed she was being forced.

Zhai Hongtao called his wife back and explained the pros and cons of the situation. Seeing his eldest son’s face darken, he knew his son felt shamed by his sister’s actions. Being colleagues with Lu Yichen, they often met, and her actions made it difficult for him to show his face.

Jiao Haifang couldn’t believe her daughter had sneaked out again today. Moreover, she had sat waiting for someone at the police station all morning until someone called the family to take her away.

She was so angry she could barely speak clearly, her hands trembling with rage. If the neighbors found out, how would their Zhai family be able to face anyone? She dared not think further.

Zhai Hongtao asked his wife to take their daughter away. He then called the Ji family and tactfully brought up the marriage between Ji Wei and his daughter. Once he had a response, he hung up the phone, feeling their decision was right. Given his daughter’s current state, marrying anyone else might only last a few days before she would be sent back home. Only Ji Wei, who had liked her since childhood, would accommodate her unconditionally and protect her.

Still, in doing so, they were wronging Ji Wei, the Ji family, and they didn’t know if Ji Wei would resent them for their selfishness in the future.

Time flew by quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day for Luo Xuyuan and his family to return home. Luo Qiao hugged her grandmother and aunt, reluctantly saying goodbye and proposing that they come live with her for a while next summer to see a different Boston.

During this time, she had made quite a lot of dried lobster meat which tasted pretty good. She planned to bring it back for her family to try, as the lobsters here were genuinely cheap.

She also brought back some maple syrup, but because of restrictions, she wasn’t able to bring much. Luo Qiao had even ordered small bottles in advance, all 100ml, giving four bottles to each person for them to check in at the airport.

Luo Qiao didn’t make cream cakes, fearing they wouldn’t pass security. She made fruit cakes instead; the weather was cold and it wouldn’t take too long, so she expected the taste wouldn’t be affected. Mainly, she had promised Yanyan and Yueyue, and didn’t want to disappoint them.

Knowing that Great Granny, Great Grandpa, and Aunt Granny, along with Uncle, Auntie, and their little cousin were leaving, Yanyan and Yueyue had cried themselves to sleep yesterday. They hadn’t woken up yet when everyone was leaving.

Luo Qiao stood at the door, bidding farewell to her family reluctantly, watching them until they were out of sight. Looking at the empty house, she felt oddly out of place for a moment.
