The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 659: Bai Jinyan Pays a Visit (2)_1

Now, no matter how much is said, Pei Qian feels in her heart that the Yang family looks down on her, and Yang Boyan had previously disrespected and dismissed her. It is only because she and her brother have gained power and have a strong backing that the Yang family has come to propose marriage.

It is her consistent line of thinking that Yang Boyan chose no other time but to arrive four months late, after she and her brother had faced a huge crisis and had turned danger into safety, which couldn’t help but lead her to think this way.

Seeing her displeased expression, Yang Boyan furrowed his brow, "Is that really what you think of me?"

"Isn’t it? You even thought about having me as your concubine before. Your family’s business is so wealthy you look down on poor families like ours. Now that you see us with power, you come knocking again. Why should I be waiting for you! Who do you think you are?!" Pei Qian’s anger and resentment grew as she spoke.

Yang Boyan’s previously high spirits immediately cooled down, "Marrying you has always been my sincere intention! If it weren’t, I wouldn’t have made several trips just to see you!"

Pei Qian had already decided in her heart, even if he didn’t think so, his family definitely agreed to the marriage after knowing that she and her brother had power. They looked down on her family but still wanted to use their power for their own benefit. If she married into their family, they would use her while still looking down on her.

Seeing her silent, Yang Boyan reached out and pulled her, "Qianqian! I know I’m late, and it’s my fault. You’ve been wronged and frightened these days, but don’t talk like that. My feelings for you are completely genuine!"

Pei Qian pursed her lips tightly and shook off his hand.

Yang Boyan reached out again, holding her hand tight, "Don’t be angry, okay? You can hit me, kick me if you want! But you can’t doubt my feelings for you! I have never deceived you, and I have always looked forward to marrying you!" Saying this, he pulled her into his embrace, "Qianqian! I really want to marry you, please marry me!"

Pei Qian’s heart softened, but recalling his actions and those of his family, she couldn’t help but think this way and pushed him away abruptly, "I don’t want to marry you right now!"

"Qianqian..." Yang Boyan said, seeing her still like this, and couldn’t help but laugh as he reached out to pull her again, "Are you just being contrary?" She didn’t immediately push him away.

Seeing his assured manner, as if he was certain she liked him and would agree to marry him, Pei Qian took a step back to avoid him, "I’ll think about it." After speaking, she quickly walked away, returning to her room.

Yang Boyan followed quickly, but she ran back into the room and closed the door.

Hong Chun and Lü Xia stood in the corridor outside the room, watching him.

Yang Boyan asked Hong Chun and Lü Xia to take him to the back courtyard to see Pei Qin and Mo Heng.

Hong Chun stepped forward and led him through the second door to the back courtyard to meet Pei Qin.

Seeing his expression, Pei Qin guessed the outcome. Pei Qian’s feelings might have changed, but her personality was not so easily swayed, "If your affections are mutual, I won’t stand in your way. But if she doesn’t wish for it, don’t even think about breaking through with me."

Yang Boyan’s expression faltered, "She’s just feeling a bit wronged and angry right now; it’s bound to get better in a couple of days."

"Then come back in a couple of days and tell me," Pei Qin said, her eyebrows raised.

Yang Boyan thought for a moment, "Didn’t you accept the Family Heirloom Jade Pendant I left behind?" Therefore, he believed that she at least supported Pei Qian marrying him.

"I’m not opposed. Indeed, I’m the one who left your things, giving you three months," Pei Qin said truthfully, providing him three months’ opportunity.

Yang Boyan’s expression tensed, "I’m sorry, but I’ll definitely make Qianqian agree to marry me! She also delights in me!"

Pei Qin smiled, "I hope so."

Yang Boyan was still confident about Pei Qian; they had mutual feelings, her family was not obstructing them, and he had broken off his engagement with his cousin and convinced his family. It was just a minor conflict, one that they could quickly mend.
