"I argued with Grandfather on this point,"
"So you're being disobedient and disrespectful?"
"Yes."
"But you still did it?"
Mosheng declared in a measured tone, "I tarnished your reputation, damaged your innocence; I should take responsibility. One must not blindly follow actions that would harm the interests of others."
Han Yingying, infuriated, smacked the back of his head, "Shen Mosheng, how old are you to be as rigid and inflexible as an old man?"
Shen Mosheng was at a loss for words, unsure how to argue.
"If your grandfather adamantly refuses to let you marry me, will you still marry me?" Han Yingying glared and put her hands on her hips, the very picture of a spoiled Princess.
"Marry," Mosheng did not hesitate at all.
"What if your grandfather hits you like he did today?"
"A little physical pain will heal in a few days."
