Kapitel 22: Chapter 22 Chutian Calls

"Mom, I really can't tell that you used to be such a worldly-wise plebeian!"

Mai Xiaomai rolled her eyes, "Didn't you always teach me to be honest and to never covet what shouldn't be coveted? How come you're going back on your word today? This really makes me despise you!"

"I'm worldly-wise, so what? Who's to blame for you not being able to get married at 28? I, your mother, had a noble heart too, but it was forced into being worldly-wise by you, the super leftover warrior! Moreover, I'm not after the Qiao Family's fortune; I'm interested in the men of the Qiao Family who are all absolutely loyal supermen. I'm doing this for your own good!"

Mom Mai asserted confidently.

"Dad, you talk some sense into her!"

Mai Xiaomai, truly at her wit's end and unable to outtalk her mother, had no choice but to turn to her dad for help.
