บท 248: Engagement (IV)

The atmosphere in the room was quite suffocating. Yet none of them tried to break it as they each have their own thoughts running in their minds. The only one who had the mind to talk was the elderly in the center of it all.

"As I was saying, your fathers and I have agreed to make both of you a pair. You are still both young and have a lot time before the marriage can be settled, but with the two of you knowing that you are promised to each other, it should help both of you to not be led astray from your path. Once I am done checking with the fengshui masters for an auspicious date, I will let you know."

Old Xiong's words gave no room for discussion. It had been decided. 

These two, Zhou Linfeng and Xiong Gaiyu, would be partners for life. As they were still young and there were no auspicious date yet, they would be promised to each other for now.

"What do you say, Gaiyu? Does my arrangement fit well with you?" Old Xiong looked at Xiong Gaiyu.
