Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Grandma Qin snorted, dismissing Qin Zhenzhen’s words as nonsense.
However, Qin Zhenzhen remained serious and said, “Grandma, please don’t worry. If I were an imposter, my parents would have noticed by now.”
“You can inform my parents about this and have them confirm whether or not I am their daughter.”
Grandma Qin fell silent, realizing that Qin Zhenzhen had a point. She considered the fact that she could discern the authenticity of Qin Zhenzhen based on the aroma of the fish soup and her overall demeanor, which was not entirely convincing.
Her voice sounded the same, her scent matched, and her appearance seemed identical. That’s why Qin Zhenzhen was so confident.
Yet, Grandma Qin couldn’t shake the feeling that Qin Zhenzhen was somehow different, despite the similarities.
Out of the blue, Qin Zhenzhen asked, “Grandma, do you remember how you used to enjoy cooking delicious meals, especially those infused with medicinal herbs and therapeutic effects?”
“Leave now!” Grandma Qin’s breathing quickened as she waved her hand, signaling Qin Zhenzhen to go.
In confusion, Qin Zhenzhen exited the room.
Ms. Yang, who had been standing guard outside, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Qin Zhenzhen.
She discreetly pulled Qin Zhenzhen aside and whispered, “What did your grandma want from you?”
Qin Zhenzhen knew she couldn’t reveal the truth.
“I tried explaining everything to Grandma,” she replied.
Ms. Yang felt a sense of relief.
However, Qin Zhenzhen halted her, saying, “Mom, I need to discuss something with you.”
Her words made Ms. Yang’s expression darken.
Her sons had informed her that Zhenzhen had considered divorcing her husband due to his neglect.
But they had managed to convince her otherwise.
Was that what Zhenzhen wanted to discuss?
“Bring your father and brothers here,” Zhenzhen requested.
In the living room, everyone gathered except for Grandma.
Qin Zhenzhen spoke with utmost seriousness, “Dad, Mom, Elder Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, I have made up my mind want a divorce.”
Shock rippled through the room.
Qin Silong’s fists clenched tightly. “Zhenzhen, you keep insisting on a divorce. Did Su Bin do something to you?”
Qin Zhenzhen shook her head. “No, he didn’t do anything. I have come to this decision on my own. A forced watermelon doesn’t taste sweet.”
Qin Dalong tried to persuade her, “Zhenzhen, a woman who is divorced by her husband’s family will be ridiculed for the rest of her life and may struggle to find a good match in the future.”
But Qin Zhenzhen countered, “I am not a woman who needs to rely on a man for my livelihood. I don’t care if I never get married.”
The entire family voiced their objections. “That’s not acceptable!”
“I can support you at home, but a woman’s life is incomplete without marriage and children,” someone added.
Ms. Yang also attempted to persuade her, saying, “Zhenzhen, Young Master’s siblings are treating you well. If he sees that you are standing up for his siblings, he will treat you well too.”
Qin Erlong took a more direct approach. “The fortune-teller predicted that you were destined for wealth, and Su Bin will undoubtedly rise to the top. Don’t jeopardize your own destiny.”
“And besides, you would rather die than marry him. So why are you giving up now?”
Qin Zhenzhen stood her ground. “I have made my decision after careful consideration.”
“Let me reveal the truth to you. Su Bin’s second brother is a ruthless individual. He associates with villains in the martial world and carries a deadly knife with him at all times.”
“Yesterday, you witnessed his fearlessness towards you because he wields that knife.. He has nothing to fear!”
